About the Authors
Biljana Badic works at Intel in Munich, focusing on the development, architecture evolution and
performance optimization of Intel cellular modems. She has been also actively involved in Intel
research activities on 4G and 5G systems. Prior to joining Intel in 2010, Biljana was a Senior
Reseacher at the School of Engineering, Swansea University, UK, where she worked on the design
of energy-efficient radio access architecture for WWANs, and from 2002 to 2006 Biljana was
employed as Research and Teaching Assistant at the Institute for Communications and Radio-
Frequency Engineering, Vienna University of Technology, where she worked on research of
multiple systems and space-time codes. Biljana received her Dipl.-Ing. Degree in electrical
engineering and information technology from the Graz University of Technology, Austria in 1996
and Dr. –Tech. degree from the Vienna University of Technology in 2005. She has published more
than fifty scientific articles and filed more than twenty 4G patents.
