| Dr. Kourosh Parsa has been at the forefront of the wireless industry for the past decade, especially the past few years during which he has invented many technologies used for wireless data W-CDMA. His experience and expertise made him instrumental in the success of Golden Bridge Technology (GBT) in the global standardization of the Common Packet Channel Technology, where he served as Interim Chief Executive Officer and Vice President of Technology and Standards. During his tenure at GBT, Dr. Parsa was involved in third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) activities and was the originator, co-inventor and the key contributor to the design and specification of GBT's Common Packet Channel (CPCH) technology in W-CDMA. Currently the chairman of TR46.1, Dr. Parsa also served as one of the architects of the Wideband Packet CDMA RTT, which was jointly submitted to ITU in January 2000 by American standard bodies TR46.1 and T1P1.5. Prior to joining GBT, he was MTS at Bell Atlantic (formerly NYNEX) Science & Technology in the wireless division. Dr. Parsa was involved in CDMA and GSM capacity planning, system planning and wireless data architecture during his three-year stint. Dr. Parsa also worked for Inter-Digital as Senior Principal Engineer, where he was responsible for standard development and part of the Broadband CDMA system design team. While at Inter-Digital, he was one of the contributors to the first W-CDMA standard (IS665) in the United States. Dr. Parsa began his career in 1990 as manager of data systems engineering for RAM Mobile Data. In this position, he was involved in system planning of the Mobitex Packet Radio System. In the past decade, Dr. Parsa has been recognized as a leading expert in wireless technology. During this time, he has published more than 25 papers on the W-CDMA capacity optimizations and wireless data. He also holds more than 10 pending and issued patents in the filed of wireless data communications. Dr. Parsa received his masters and doctorate degrees in Electrical Engineering from City College of New York in 1987 and 1990, respectively. His thesis was in the area of wireless communications. |
