Congratulations to NYU WIRELESS PhD student Shu Sun, a winner of the 2017 Marconi Society Paul Baran Young Scholar Award. The Society cited her substantial work in 5G mmWave communications and her leadership skills as the reasons for the honor. Dr. Rappaport applauded Shu’s “ability to change minds and lead the world to completely new …
We are very pleased to welcome Tom Marzetta as a faculty member of NYU WIRELESS. An IEEE Fellow who was previously with Bell Labs, Tom is renowned for originating massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) technology. Massive MIMO utilizes numerous small, individually controlled, low-power antennas to direct streams of information, selectively and simultaneously, to many users. This …
NYU WIRELESS has developed what is thought to be the world’s first commercial emulator for 5G millimeter wave (mm-Wave) systems. The emulator differs from the existing paradigm because it performs not only the emulation of the wireless channel, but also of the beamforming antenna arrays on both the transmitter and receiver devices under test (TX and …
Researchers at CATT and NYU Wireless have built the world’s first wireless emulator suitable for 5G systems that feature massive bandwidths and hundreds of antenna elements. In this unique patent pending design, the solution emulates not only the wireless channel, but also the beamformers (or phased-arrays) on both the transmitter and receiver devices under test (DUTs). This joint emulation …
This month marks the fifth anniversary of the launch of NYU WIRELESS, a multidisciplinary research center founded in 2012 to develop the fundamental theories and techniques for next-generation mass-deployable wireless devices across a wide range of applications and markets. In the years that followed, it has become central to the remarkably rapid adoption of technologies …

Rapidly increasing demands for higher mobile data rates and ubiquitous data access have led to a spectrum crunch over the traditional wireless communication frequency bands. Luckily, Tandon doctoral candidate Shu Sun explains that new spectrum allocations in the millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequency bands are helping to alleviate the shortage and allowing for the development of the fifth-generation (5G) wireless …
The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society board of directors recently announced that the NYU WIRELESS-led paper, “Investigation of Prediction Accuracy, Sensitivity, and Parameter Stability of Large-Scale Propagation Path Loss Models for 5G Wireless Communications,” is the winner of the 2017 Neal Shepherd Propagation Prize. The May 2016 paper, led by NYU WIRELESS graduate student Shu Sun, compared three …
In an interview with RCR Wireless News, NYU WIRELESS Director Sundeep Rangan, Program Director Marco Mezzavilla, and researcher Aditya Dhananjay spoke about how the recent NIST award they received will be put into action to help first responders. “There’s been a lot of interest in using cellular technologies for the purpose of public safety — …
The federal government likes what’s going on at NYU Tandon, a $2.2 million grant to the university’s 5G wireless program would suggest. The grant comes from the U.S. Commerce Department’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which announced earlier this week grants totaling $38.5 million to 33 universities and corporations to help research and design …
