IEEE Academic Spotlight - The Origin of CDMA Communications with Dr. Scholtz

The history of CDMA communications is intimately connected with many interesting characters: a science fiction writer, a movie star, a congressional chaplain, and a composer of music for massed player pianos, not to mention USC faculty and alumnae. Find out about documents undiscovered for over a quarter century, patents under secrecy order, a telephone directory that facilitated the development of an early spread-spectrum communication system, an eighty ton secure communication system used during World War II, and more, time permitting. This talk is about the BIG picture and peoples’ imaginations -- NO EQUATIONS!


If you want to learn more about Dr. Scholtz's work before the Academic spotlight, feel free to read his biography here, As a co-author of multiple books and the recipient of numerous awards, Dr. Scholtz is one of the most esteemed faculty members at USC.
