Fred Daneshgaran, Principle Investigator
Dr. Fred Daneshgaran received the B.S. degree in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering from California State University, Los Angeles (CSULA) in 1984, the M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from CSULA in 1985, and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), in 1992. From 1985 to 1987 he was instructor of the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at CSULA. From 1987 to 1993 he was assistant professor of the same department. At present he is
associate professor and the chairman of the communications group in the ECE department of CSULA. His current research interests include wavelets, algebraic geometry codes and symbol dynamics, parallel processing and systolic arrays, efficient mapping of algorithms into VLSI, application of convolutional and trellis coding in mobile radio, and optical information processing. He has had over 40 journal and conference publications in the areas noted above. His broad and deep analytical skills complement those of Dr. Radi Al Jishi in experimental physics. He was awarded the NSF grant for the development of the fiber optics laboratory and is actively pursuing research in this area.

Radi Al Jishi, Co-P.I.
Dr. Radi Al Jishi received the Ph.D. degree in physics from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1982. Currently, he is a professor of the department of physics and astronomy at CSULA. He has held several visiting scientist positions at MIT, University of Electrocommunications in Japan, Tokyo Science
University, and University of Tsukuba in Japan. He has had over 40 publications in various prestigious journals. His current research interests include study of Carbon Nanotubes, and quantum and nonlinear optics.

Fabio Dovis, Research Assistant
Fabio Dovis received the degree in Electrical Engineering in 1996 from the Politecnico di Torino, Italy.
His interests are in application of signal processing to communications and his current works are on use of wavelet waveforms for digital communications, application of wavelet digital filter to array processing, blind equalisation and optical signal processing.
