a) RAJAMANI GANESH received his BE degree from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in 1985. Later, he received his MS and PhD degrees in Wireless Communications from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Massachusetts (USA) in 1987 and 1991, respectively. He has more than 13 years' work experience in corporate USA where he held many technical management and leadership positions and successfully executed projects of all kinds and sizes. Presently, he works as the Director of Technology Development and Marketing for Qualcomm International with current posting in India. He is actively involved in helping CDMA operators with new technology roadmaps, network performance engineering and deployment of key product offerings. Before joining Qualcomm, he was the Chief Engineer in a mobile-Location based services start-up, which he helped found in the Boston area. Previous to that, he was a Senior Scientist in Verizon Technology Organization (USA) for about 7 years, working on CDMA Network planning, deployments and optimization with special emphasis on capacity enhancement coupled with infrastructure-cost minimization. Earlier, from 1991 to 1995, he was with Sarnoff Corporation in Princeton, New Jersey (USA), working on HDTV transmission and packet CDMA systems. Dr. Ganesh has published dozens of technical papers in many journals and conferences and has received many awards including the prestigious WARNER award, Verizon/GTE’s highest award for outstanding technical achievement. He has 15 patents (7 pending) in wireless network planning and optimization issues, mobile Location determination systems & Bluetooth networks. He has contributed to chapters in books and has also edited 2 books on wireless communications: "Wireless Multemedia Network Technologies" and "Wireless Network Deployments". He has been the Technical Program Co-Chairman for the last two International IEEE conferences, held in India, on Personal Wireless Communications. He is also active, in the techn
