Main Contributions to Standardization

Based on my research results, I have made direct contributions to the following international standards via NOKIA Bell Labs:
    • ITU-R Recommendation P.1238, Propagation data and prediction methods for the planning of indoor radiocommunication systems and radio local area networks in the frequency range 300 MHz to 450 GHz [link]
      • Review of the site-general model for indoor office, corridor, and industrial scenarios.
    • 3GPP TSG-RAN TR 38.901, Study on channel model for frequencies from 0.5 to 100 GHz (Release 16) [link]
      • Addition of Indoor Factory (InF) scenario.
    • ITU-R Recommendation P.2108-0 (06/2017), Prediction of Clutter Loss [link]
      • ITU-R Recommendation P.2109-0 (06/2017), Prediction of Building Entry Loss [link]
        • 3GPP TSG-RAN TR 38.901, Study on channel model for frequencies from 0.5 to 100 GHz (Release 14) [link]
          • Support of baseline scenarios: urban macrocell (UMa), rural macrocell (RMa), urban microcell (UMi), indoor office hotspot (InH).
