Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
SPEAKER: Mr. Mark Miller, CTO, ViaSatABSTRACT: A two-way satellite communications system provides for transport of Internet Protocols (IP) datagrams will be presented. The communications system is employed on private business jets and is used to provide broadband internet access to the passengers. The task of providing internet access over satellite to moving vehicles, such as aircraft, presents several challenges. The issues and the technical solutions to the problems will be discussed with special emphasis on the design of the physical layer (modulation, coding, and multiple access techniques) of the communication system.BIO: Mark Miller received the BSEE and MSEE degrees from UCSD and UCLA in 1981 and 1982 respectively. He has over 20 years of industry experience, all of which have been spent performing engineering research and product development. From 1982 to 1983 he was employed at Cubic defense Systems in San Diego California. From 1983 to 1986 he was employed at M/A-COM Linkabit as a communications systems engineer. In 1986 he co-founded ViaSat Inc, where he has been employed ever since. Currently he holds the position of Vice President and Chief Technical Officer at ViaSat. His main technical interests and active work lie in area of modulation, coding, digital signal processing and multiple access techniques. He is the holder of numerous patents and has taught Satellite Communications through the UCSD extension program.HOST: Dr. Keith Chugg, chugg@usc.edu
