ABSTRACT:

Smart phones and tablet computers are making a huge impact to our daily life. More and more functions are consolidated into an ever smaller and lighter device. We will be talking about various technologies that enable today’s smart devices, including wireless communications, application processors, software platform, and some interesting advances in multimedia signal processing. In addition to presenting the state of the art, we will also discuss a few technological trends that may be of interest.

Biography:

Dr. Jou is a Corporate Vice President and the Chief Technology Officer at MediaTek Inc.  He oversees the company’s advanced research and development in various areas related to smart communication devices and provides guidance to its technology and business strategies.

     Before joining MediaTek in 2011, Dr. Jou spent nearly 22 years at Qualcomm Incorporated.  He was involved in the design and development of the original CDMA prototype system, the IS-95 standard, and early CDMA modem chips.  He was a key contributor to the design and standardization of the third generation (3G) cellular systems, including leading the development of CDMA2000 1X and CDMA2000 1X-EV-DO standards for voice and packet data services.  He was also involved in the design of the Globalstar LEO satellite communication system.  Dr. Jou led the research and development of 1X-Advanced, a system applying interference cancellation techniques and intelligent signal transmission to improve voice capacity.  It outperforms all existing commercial cellular systems in voice capacity by a significant margin and sets a very high standard for future systems to match.  Dr. Jou played a major role in Qualcomm’s technical and business activities in the Greater China area.  He served as Qualcomm China’s Chief Technology Officer from 2003 to 2005.

     Dr. Jou holds approximately 80 U. S. patents, many of which are used in all CDMA-based 3G cellular systems.  He has published numerous technical papers in the wireless communications area.

     Dr. Jou received a Bachelor of Science degree in electrical engineering from National Taiwan University in 1982 and Master of Science and Ph. D. degrees, both in electrical engineering, from the University of Southern California in 1985 and 1989, respectively.
