Duel-Hallen Paper Included in Commemorative Collection

Dr. Duel-Hallen

Dr. Alexandra Duel-Hallen, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering at NC State University, has had a paper selected for inclusion in the fiftieth anniversary commemorative collection published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE) Communications Society.

The papers in the collection represent an editorial selection of various key research papers that have been published by the Communications Society. They trace the evolution of communications systems over the past 50 years. Duel-Hallen's paper is one of only 41 foundational papers chosen to represent significant advances in the past 50 years of communications technology development in physical and link layer areas; an additional 16 papers on networking were also included in the collection. The 57 papers represent seminal research presentations in communications science. The papers were selected by an editorial committee from three archival journals published by the IEEE Communications Society through an extremely thorough review process, which is described on the web pages of the society: http://dl.comsoc.org/cocoon/comsoc/html/50th.htm.

Duel-Hallen’s 1993 paper is entitled “Decorrelating Decision-Feedback Multiuser Detector for Synchronous Code-Division Multiple-Access Channel” and was published in IEEE Transactions on Communications 41(2): 285-290. It presents a fundamental approach to separating signals of multiple users in wireless communication systems.

Duel-Hallen received her bachelor’s in mathematics from Case Western Reserve University in 1982; her master’s in computer, information and control engineering from the University of Michigan in 1983; and her doctorate in electrical engineering from Cornell University in 1987. She was a visiting professor at Cornell University and a member of the technical staff at Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, New Jersey before coming to NC State University in 1993.
