2. 2011 IEEE CQR International Workshop Naples FL 2 | Runyon Communications Evolution Beyond LTE Communications has evolved a long way since 1875! LTE is Here! But if “Long Term Evolution” is here, what’s next? LTE Advanced Then After That?

3. 2011 IEEE CQR International Workshop Naples FL 3 | Runyon The Future of Communications: Innovation from the Cell Cellular (Molecular) Information Theory is the application of Claude Shannon's information theory to molecular patterns and states The Cell is the most complex & amazing communication system imaginable! - DNA code is a code (ATCG) and genes are subroutines - Communication takes place over a noisy channel from a sender to a receiver - Highly Sophisticated (OSI Stacks and multiple levels of Operating Systems) -Highly Reliable with Redundancy & Error Correction built-in - Stressful environments result in new code and systems - Biodegradable But Our Reality is LTE!!
