Richard G.C. Williams is director of Wireless LAN (WLAN) modem development for Texas Instruments. He manages TI's design centers and is responsible for all aspects of WLAN products from the design of algorithms, implementation of all PHY and MAC WLAN features to performance of the system -- from the antenna to the host interface.
Prior to joining TI, Williams was director of advanced development at 3Com, editor of V.90/V.92 standards and a research engineer at British Telecom Research Labs.
Williams received a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics and a Doctorate degree in electrical engineering from the University of Manchester, England. His doctorate, which concentrated on coded
modulation schemes, led him to a career designing, implementing and standardizing communications solutions for a variety of high tech companies.
Williams discovered the 32-state code that is now used in all V.34, V.90 and V.92 analog modems and has 20 U.S. patents and several patents pending. Richard has contributed many ideas that have been accepted by
standards committees worldwide and has led several successful developments of voiceband and broadband communication products throughout his career.
