DU would like to announce that Dr. Wisam Fahmi Al-Azzo,
a faculty member in the College of Engineering,
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, has
been awarded two medals from Malaysia. The first medal
is a gold medal, received from the research and
innovation exhibition held in the well known and long
established research University Putra Malaysia (UPM).
The second medal he was awarded is the bronze medal,
from the Malaysian nation competition exhibition,
Malaysia Technology Expo 2011, for excellent research.
The research is a collaborative work between Dhofar
University, represented by Dr. Wisam, and the research
group at UPM in Malaysia. The output of the research
serves, in general, the applications of wireless
communications and in particular the transmission of
multimedia contents through a wireless channel, e.g.
video signals over mobile channels. The research output
offers a simple, new implemented solution with
significant improvement to the problem of noise, the
dominant signal impairment in wireless communications.
Consequently, portable devices, e.g. laptops and cell
phones, are the most expected devices that can benefit
from the proposed technique for the 4G networks of
multimedia rich communications services. Finally, the
registration of the research as a patent in
Malaysia and in USA is now under process for royalty
protection. |
