Johanna Ketonen (S’07) received the M.Sc. (Tech.)
degree in electrical and information engineering from
the University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland, in 2007. She
is currently working toward the Dr.Sc. (Tech.) at the
Centre for Wireless Communications, University of
Oulu, Oulu, Finland.
Her main research interests are in the implementa-
tion oriented study of receiver algorithms for MIMO-
OFDM systems.
Markku Juntti (S’93-M’98-SM’04) received the
M.Sc. (Tech.) and Dr.Sc. (Tech.) degrees in electrical
engineering from University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland,
in 1993 and 1997, respectively.
He was with University of Oulu from 1992 to 1998.
During the academic year 1994-1995, he was a Vis-
iting Scholar at Rice University, Houston, TX. From
1999 to 2000, he was a Senior Specialist with Nokia
Networks. He has been a Professor of Telecommuni-
cations in the Department of Electrical and Informa-
tion Engineering and Centre for Wireless Communi-
cations (CWC) at the University of Oulu since 2000. His research interests in-
clude signal processing for wireless networks as well as communication and
information theory. He is an author or coauthor in some 200 papers published
in international journals and conference records as well as in the book WCDMA
for UMTS (Wiley, 2000). He is also an Adjunct Professor at the Department of
Electrical and Computer Engineering, Rice University, Houston, TX.
Dr. Juntti is an Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Communications
and was an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Vehicular
Technology from 2002 to 2008. He was Secretary of IEEE Communication
Society Finland Chapter from 1996 to 1997 and the Chairman from 2000 to
2001. He has been Secretary of the Technical Program Committee (TPC) of
the 2001 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC’01) and
the Co-Chair of the Technical Program Committee of 2004 Nordic Radio
Symposium and 2006 IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and
Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC 2006).
Joseph R. Cavallaro (S’78-M’82-SM’05) received
the B.S. degree from the University of Pennsyl-
vania, Philadelphia, in 1981, the M.S. degree from
Princeton University, Princeton, NJ, in 1982, and the
Ph.D. degree from Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, in
1988, all in electrical engineering.
From 1981 to 1983, he was with AT&T Bell
Laboratories, Holmdel, NJ. In 1988, he joined the
faculty of Rice University, Houston, TX, where he
is currently a Professor of electrical and computer
engineering. His research interests include computer
arithmetic, VLSI design and microlithography, and DSP and VLSI architec-
tures for applications in wireless communications. During the 1996-1997
academic year, he served at the National Science Foundation as Director of
the Prototyping Tools and Methodology Program. He was a Nokia Foundation
Fellow and a Visiting Professor at the University of Oulu, Finland, in 2005
and continues his affiliation there as an Adjunct Professor. He is currently
the Associate Director of the Center for Multimedia Communication at Rice
University.
Dr. Cavallaro was Co-Chair of the 2004 Signal Processing for Communica-
tions Symposium at the IEEE Global Communications Conference and Gen-
eral Co-Chair of the 2004 IEEE Fifteenth International Conference on Applica-
tion-Specific Systems, Architectures and Processors (ASAP).
