Christoph F. Mecklenbräuker

Christoph F. Mecklenbräuker was born in Darmstadt, Germany, in 1967. He received the Dipl.-Ing. degree in electrical engineering from Vienna University of Technology in 1992 and the Dr.-Ing. degree from Ruhr-Universität Bochum in 1998, respectively. His doctoral thesis on matched field processing was awarded the Gert Massenberg Prize. He worked for the Mobile Networks Radio Department of Siemens AG, where he participated in the European framework of ACTS 90 “FRAMES.” He was a delegate to the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) and engaged in the standardization of the radio access network for UMTS. Since 2000, he has been holding a Senior Research position at the Telecommunications Research Center Vienna (FTW) in the field of mobile communications. Currently, he gives a course at the Vienna Technical University on 3G mobile networks. He has authored around 60 papers in international journals and conferences, for which he has also served as a reviewer and holds 8 patents in the field of mobile cellular networks. His current research interests include antenna-array- and MIMO-signal processing for mobile communications.
