Wireless Research Agenda  UCSD researchers report world record efficiency for high-power amplifiers for cellular base stations. The November announcement came as the School`s Center for Wireless Communications marked its 10th anniversary. "The past decade coincided with a quest for enhanced spectral efficiency in wireless communications," says CWC director Larry Larson. "These considerations are becoming pervasive in the design of wireless systems and a focus of economic and regulatory attention." read more

Message from the Chair
Welcome to the website of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at UCSD. When you browse around, you will see the up-to-date courses covering the entire spectrum of the electrical and computer engineering discipline, you'll get information about our faculty, who are leaders in their cutting-edge research programs, and you'll see undergraduate and graduate students about working on groundbreaking projects.
ECE is at a significant crossroads - the technology to create and manipulate information is at the center of the modern world, and it impacts modern telecommunications and computer industries, as well the basic sciences and biology. The research challenges in our discipline emerge at the nano-scale of device physics, from the convergence of electronics and biology, from the emerging challenges of alternative energy sources, and from the linking of the virtual and physical worlds. We invite you to join us in this exciting adventure into the future of global high technology.

 San Diego, CA, May 06, 2008 -- Bhaskar Rao is a space explorer, though he is no astronaut. The electrical engineer from UC San Diego’s Jacobs School of Engineering explores the “space frontier” that has opened up with the emergence of MIMO (multiple input multiple output) technologies for wireless communications. In MIMO systems, both transmitters and receivers contain multiple antennae, which means that space – and not just time – is in play when it comes to signal processing strategies for increasing data rates, reliability, users served, and other parameters in wireless communications networks.

 Congratulations to UCSD IEEE Student Branch, which came in 4th (out of 130 teams from 31 countries) in the second annual IEEExtreme Programming Competition! |
 San Diego, CA, April 22, 2008 -- As the pace of photonic device development quickens, researchers at UC San Diego have shown that actually slowing light can accelerate future development in this promising field. Read more ... |
  Bongyong Song, Rene L. Cruz and Bhaskar D. Rao have been selected winners of the 2008 Stephen O. Rice Prize Paper Award in the Field of Communications Systems for their paper: "Network Duality for Multiuser MIMO Beamforming Networks and Applications," IEEE Transactions on Communications, March 2007. |
 Professor Gert Lanckriet has been awarded the Optimization Prize by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics ( SIAM). The award recognizes his paper "A Direct Formulation for Sparse PCA Using Semidefinite Programming" in collaboration with Profs. El Ghaoui and Jordan at Berkeley, and d`Aspremont at Princeton. SIAM is a society that ensures the strongest interactions between mathematics and other scientific communities. |
