Cognitive radio systems and networks for flexible spectrum usage<br />

Chair: Gordon Stüber Professor at Ge<strong>org</strong>ia Institute of Technology, USA<br />

Panelists: Ying-Chang Liang <strong>Programme</strong> Manager at Institute for Infocomm Research, Singapore<br />

James Neel President of Cognitive Radio Technologies, LLC, USA<br />

Kwang-Cheng Chen Professor at National Taiwan University, Taiwan<br />

Luis M. Correia Professor at IST-Technical University of Lisbon, Portugal<br />

Various regulatory bodies in the world have discovered that most licensed radio spectrum is underutilized<br />

leading to a scarcity of available spectrum. Cognitive radio is an enabling technology for providing dynamic<br />

spectrum access to such licensed spectrum on a secondary usage basis, thereby providing more efficient use<br />

of the spectrum. The key components of cognitive radio are spectrum sensing and dynamic spectrum<br />

management. The cognitive radio was a concept first introduced by Dr. Joseph Mitola III in his doctoral<br />

dissertation at Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Sweden, in 2000. Since its introduction, cognitive radio<br />

has attracted enormous attention in the research community, and it holds great promise for both military and<br />

commercial applications. This panel will address the challenges moving forward for the successful<br />

development and deployment of cognitive radio systems.<br />

Dr. Gordon L. Stüber received the B.A.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees<br />

in Electrical Engineering from the University of Waterloo,<br />

Ontario, Canada, in 1982 and 1986 respectively. In 1986, he<br />

joined the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering,<br />

Ge<strong>org</strong>ia Institute of Technology, where he is currently a<br />

Professor and holds the Joseph M. Pettit Chair in<br />

Communications. Dr. Stüber is author of the textbook<br />

Principles of Mobile Communication, third edition, Springer<br />

Science+Business Media, 2011. He was co-recipient of the<br />

Jack Neubauer Memorial Award in 1997 for the best systems<br />

paper published in the IEEE Transactions on Vehicular<br />

Technology. He became an IEEE Fellow in 1999 “for<br />

contributions to mobile radio and spread spectrum<br />

communications.” He received the IEEE Vehicular Technology<br />

Society James R. Evans Avant Garde Award in 2003 “for his<br />

contributions to theoretical research in wireless<br />

communications.” In 2007, he received the IEEE<br />

Communications Society Wireless Communications Technical<br />

Committee Recognition Award (2007) “for outstanding<br />

technical contributions in the field and for service to the<br />

scientific and engineering communities.” <strong>Final</strong>ly, he was corecipient<br />

of the Neal Shepherd Memorial Best Propagation<br />

Paper Award in 2012 for the best propagation paper published<br />

in the IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology. Dr. Stüber<br />

served as Technical Program Chair for the 1996 IEEE<br />

Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC'96), Technical<br />

Program Chair for the 1998 IEEE International Conference on<br />

Communications (ICC'98), General Chair of the 2002 IEEE<br />

Communication Theory Workshop (CTW’02), and General<br />

Chair of the Fifth YRP International Symposium on Wireless<br />

Personal Multimedia Communications (WPMC'2002). He is<br />

currently an elected member of the IEEE Vehicular<br />

Technology Society Board of Governors.<br />

Ying-Chang Liang is now a Principal Scientist with the<br />

Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R), Agency for Science,<br />

Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore. He was a<br />

visiting scholar with the Department of Electrical Engineering,<br />

Stanford University, from Dec 2002 to Dec 2003, and taught<br />

graduate courses in National University of Singapore from<br />

2004 – 2009. His research interest includes cognitive radio<br />

networks, dynamic spectrum access, reconfigurable signal<br />

processing for broadband communications, information theory<br />

and statistical signal processing.<br />

Dr Liang was elected a Fellow of the IEEE in 2011 for<br />

contributions to cognitive radio communications, and has<br />

received five Best Paper Awards, including IEEE ComSoc<br />

APB outstanding paper award in 2012, and EURASIP Journal<br />

of Wireless Communications and Networking best paper award<br />

in 2010. He also received the Institute of Engineers Singapore<br />

(IES)’s Prestigious Engineering Achievement Award in 2007,<br />

and the IEEE Standards Association’s Certificate of<br />

Appreciation Award in 2011, for contributions to the<br />

development of IEEE 802.22, the first worldwide standard<br />

based on cognitive radio technology.<br />

Dr Liang currently serves as Editor-in-Chief of IEEE<br />
