  ECE Seminar - Ian Roberts

  Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)

  11:00 AM L440, Technological Institute

  EVENT DETAILS

  Ian Roberts is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Texas at Austin, where he is part of the 6G@UT Research Center within the Wireless Networking and Communications Group. In this talk, he will highlight how next-generation millimeter wave (mmWave) transceivers can be upgraded with full-duplex capability: the long-sought ability to simultaneously transmit and receive over the same frequency spectrum. By combining theory and practice, he will introduce two novel enablers of full-duplex mmWave systems that rely solely on beamforming to cancel self-interference to levels near or even below the noise floor, all while maintaining backward compatibility with beam alignment protocols in 5G. Ian will demonstrate the effectiveness of my proposed solutions using 28 GHz and 60 GHz phased arrays, the first real-world evaluations of their kind.
