On February 9, 2011, the North Jersey Chapter of the IEEE Aerospace & Electronic Systems Society will sponsor the following talk:
Challenges for RF Communication in the Battlefield Environment:
The talk will focus on the challenges for RF communication in the battle-field environment. The topic will first discuss different research programs in the Army to study the propagation characteristics in rural and urban environment during battle-field communication. This will include recent researches in developing propagation models to overcome these challenges for a sustained communication in a mobile adhoc network (MANET). The topic will also include the impact of spectrum scarcity during operation and present research to address this challenge.

Biography: Dr. Mahbub Hoque is the Chief Scientist of the Space & Terrestrial Communications Directorate (S&TCD) in the U.S. Army’s Communications Electronics Research Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Fort Monmouth, NJ. He also serves as the Division Chief of the Antennas and Spectrum Analysis Division in S&TCD.

As the Directorate’s Chief Scientist, Dr. Hoque leads S&TCD’s basic research program, encompassing technology areas including network science, nanotechnologies, software defined radios, network operations, modeling and simulation, tactical and strategic satellite communications, information assurance, antennas, EMI/EMC, spectrum management, and evolutionary commercial wireless technologies.

As a Division Chief, Dr. Hoque leads his 100+ strong workforce dedicated to providing engineering solutions in the areas of spectrum management and electromagnetics. The Division operates in several critical technology areas, including the research, development, and engineering of new antenna technologies; modeling and simulation to study and mitigate coupling issues between collocated antennas; metamaterial research and development; and various spectrum management initiatives, to include the development of spectrum architectures, cognitive networks, et al.

Prior to joining S&TCD in 2000, Dr. Hoque was a Director at Telcordia Technologies where he received 1996 Bellcore Presidential Award for his work analyzing the impacts of radio interference on Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) technology. He has authored more than 70 publications and has chaired many sessions in various national and international conferences and symposiums.

Dr. Hoque received his PhD in Electrical Engineering (1983) from University College London, U.K. in electromagnetics and antennas.
Dr. Hoque is the recipient of various awards, including the Commanders Award for Civilian Service.
