Postdoctoral Researcher/Research Faculty:

 

Murat Arabaci

E-mail: arabaci@ece.arizona.edu   

Murat Arabaci was working on the design and FPGA implementation of nonbinary quasi-cyclic LDPC encoders and decoders suitable for high speed implementation; as well as on adaptive nonbinary LDPC-coded modulation for high-speed applications.

 

 

Research Assistants/Associates:

 

Yequn (Mike) Zhang

E-mail: yequnz@email.arizona.edu

Yequn Zhang was working on LDPC-coded multidimensional coded-modulation schemes, channel capacity studies and experimental demonstrations of various coded-modulation scenarios. He graduated in March 2015.

 

Ding Zou

E-mail: dingzou@email.arizona.edu

Ding Zou is working on various LDPC-coded OFDM schemes enabling multi-Tb/s optical transport including: multiband OFDM, generalized OFDM, and four-dimensional multicarrier coded-modulation. He is also working on corresponding FPGA implementations.

 

ChangYu (Steven) Lin

E-mail: lcy@email.arizona.edu 

ChangYu Lin is working on nonbinary LDPC-coded modulation enabling utra-high-speed optical transport over few-mode fiber (FMF) links.

 

Tao Liu

E-mail: taoliu@email.arizona.edu  

Tao Liu is working on optimum signal constellation design enabling multi-Tb/s optical transport.

 

Serkan Ak

E-mail: serkanak@email.arizona.edu 

Serkan Ak was working on nonbinary LDPC code design with ultra-low error floor.
 

 

K. B. Mahesh Sharma

Mahesh Sharma was working on FPGA transceivers for optical transport networks. He is now with Qualcomm, SD.
 

Visiting Scholars:

 

Xuezhi (Eric) Hong

Xuezhi (Eric) Hong was working on optimum signal constellation, carrier recovery algorithms and experimental proof-of-concepts of various coded-modulation concepts.
