Banerjee is a Ph.D. student in the Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE).\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe title of Banerjee\u2019s award-winning paper is \u201cSelf-Learning MIMO-RF Receiver Systems: Process Resilient Real-Time Adaptation to Channel Conditions for Low Power Operation,\u201d coauthored by his fellow ECE Ph.D. students \u2013 Shreyas Sen, Barry Muldrey, Xian Wang \u2013 and ECE Professor Abhijit Chatterjee, who serves as the Ph.D. advisor for all of the student authors, including Banerjee.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPrior research has established that dynamically trading-off the performance of the RF front-end for reduced power consumption across changing channel conditions, using a feedback control system that modulates circuit and algorithmic level \u201ctuning knobs\u201d in real-time, leads to significant power savings. Optimal power control strategy also depends on the process conditions corresponding to the involved RF devices. This factor complicates the problem of designing the feedback control system that guarantees the best control strategy for minimizing power consumption across all channel conditions and process corners.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESince this problem is largely intractable due to the complexity of simulation across all channel conditions and process corners, Banerjee and his coauthors have proposed a\u0026nbsp;\u201cself-learning\u201d\u0026nbsp;strategy for adaptive MIMO-RF systems in this paper. In this approach, RF devices learn their own performance vs. power consumption vs. tuning knob relationships \u201con-the-fly\u201d and formulate the optimum reconfiguration strategy using neural-network-based learning techniques during real-time operation. The methodology is demonstrated for a MIMO-RF receiver front-end and is supported by hardware validation leading to significant power savings in minimal learning time.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EECE Ph.D. student Debashis Banerjee will receive a Best in Track Paper Award at the 2014 IEEE\/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design, to be held November 2-6 in San Jose, California.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"ECE Ph.D. student Debashis Banerjee will receive a Best in Track Paper Award at the 2014 IEEE\/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design, to be held November 2-6 in San Jose, California."}],"uid":"27241","created_gmt":"2014-09-25 14:34:49","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:17:11","author":"Jackie Nemeth","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2014-09-29T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2014-09-29T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"328741":{"id":"328741","type":"image","title":"Debashis Banerjee","body":null,"created":"1449245064","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 16:04:24","changed":"1475895041","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:50:41","alt":"Debashis Banerjee","file":{"fid":"200294","name":"debashis_banerjee.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/debashis_banerjee_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/debashis_banerjee_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":722484,"path_740":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/debashis_banerjee_0.jpg?itok=zIJEPim_"}}},"media_ids":["328741"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.gatech.edu\/","title":"Georgia Tech"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.ece.gatech.edu\/","title":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"},{"url":"http:\/\/iccad.com\/","title":"2014 IEEE\/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design"}],"groups":[{"id":"1255","name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"}],"categories":[{"id":"134","name":"Student and Faculty"},{"id":"8862","name":"Student Research"},{"id":"145","name":"Engineering"},{"id":"149","name":"Nanotechnology and Nanoscience"},{"id":"135","name":"Research"},{"id":"150","name":"Physics and Physical Sciences"}],"keywords":[{"id":"104531","name":"2014 IEEE\/ACM International Conference on Computer-Aided Design"},{"id":"2491","name":"Abhijit Chatterjee"},{"id":"104521","name":"Debashis Banerjee"},{"id":"109","name":"Georgia Tech"},{"id":"166855","name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"}],"core_research_areas":[{"id":"39451","name":"Electronics and Nanotechnology"}],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJackie Nemeth\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Electrical and Computer Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E404-894-2906\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ejackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
