Farokh Marvasti is an Iranian professor known for his contributions to nonuniform sampling as applied to signal processing, communications, and information theory. He received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, New York, in 1973.[1][2].
Career
From 1972 to 1975, Marvasti worked at Graphic Sciences and Singer-Kearfott in the United States, focusing on new digital facsimile and channel codings, respectively. He later joined Sharif University of Technology, where he played a crucial role in founding the Iran Telecommunication and Electric Power Research Centers. In 1984, he spent his sabbatical at the University of California, Davis, teaching graduate courses and conducting research. Subsequently, he worked at AT&T Bell Labs before joining the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) in Chicago. After consulting extensively on developing new digital video coding techniques, he joined King’s College, University of London, in 1991. Following his retirement from King’s College[3], Marvasti returned to Sharif University in 2003 as a full professor and founded the Advanced Communications Research Institute (ACRI)[4]. He spent his sabbatical leave at the Communications and Information Systems Group of University College London (UCL) in 2013, during which he published a seminal paper on Spectral Efficient Frequency Division Multiplexing (SEFDM).
Contributions
Marvasti has authored two books on nonuniform sampling (the only textbooks that are fully dedicated to this topic[5]) and numerous book chapters on sparse signal processing. He has published approximately 250 journal papers and several hundred conference papers, all in the fields of signal processing, communications, and information theory[6][7][8][9]. Additionally, he holds several US patents related to analog-to-digital conversion and image denoising[10][11]
Also, the algorithm developed for SEFDM decoding in 2013, is still the best algorithm that is being considered for future generations of mobile systems. The same holds for decoding overloaded CDMA systems.
Editorial Roles and Awards
Marvasti served as an editor of the IEEE Transactions on Communications from 1990 to 1995 and as an associate editor of the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing from 1994 to 1997. In 2014, he received a distinguished award from the Iranian Academy of Sciences, followed by an award from the Iranian National Science Foundation for a five-year term chair position in 2015[12] He was appointed as a distinguished researcher by the IEEE Iran Chapter in 2018.
