Maruf Mohammad

Maruf Mohammad has a wealth of experience in the technology industry. Maruf began their career in 2000 as a Research Assistant at the Mobile and Portable Radio Research Group at Virginia Tech, where they developed physical layer design including equalizers, channel estimation, channel modeling, interference cancelation, error correction coding, and advanced simulation techniques using hidden Markov models. In 2003, they joined Cingular as a Member of Technical Staff, where they developed link level simulators for Enhanced Data rate GSM Evolution (EDGE) for GSM/EDGE Radio Access Network (GERAN) and SAIC algorithms. In 2004, they moved to Motorola as a Systems Engineer/Research Engineer, where they developed system level simulators for cdma 1xEV-DV standard and Unified Modeling language (UML) based call processing software. In 2007, they joined Hughes Network Systems as a Senior Member of Technical Staff, where they worked on modem design, algorithm development, end-to-end physical layer simulator implementation, performance analysis and optimization, and fixed-point bit accurate simulator development for ASIC/FPGA implementation. In 2011, they joined Broadcom as a Senior Staff Scientist, Systems Design, where they worked on algorithm design, simulator development for RF/Baseband interface for WCDMA and HSPA+, design and implementation of Sigma-delta ADC, AGC design, DC correction, IQ correction, multi-rate filtering, and development of test scripts to bring up HW ASIC chip in the lab and verification of functionality of HW modules through automated scripts. In 2014, they moved to Qualcomm as a Wireless Systems Engineer, where they developed and implemented base-band receiver algorithms for 802. 11ac/ax products including channel estimation, timing estimation, phase tracking, fractional sampling rate conversion, and designed, implemented, and validated calibration algorithms for 802. In 2018, they joined Intel Corporation as a Technical Lead, Wireless Systems Engineering. Finally, in 2022, they joined Atmosic Technologies as Director of Technology, where they are leading the design, development, implementation, integration, and testing of low power 802. 15 chipsets (BLE, 15. 4, UWB).

Maruf Mohammad obtained a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology between 1994 and 1999. Maruf then went on to obtain an M.S. in Electrical Engineering (Wireless Communications) from Virginia Tech between 2000 and 2002. Finally, Maruf Mohammad received a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering (Wireless Communications) from Virginia Tech in 2006.
