Student Paper Contest Awards

We are proud to announce the winners of the first Student Paper Contest held by the IEEE Student Branch Klagenfurt. As one highlight of our Christmas Party on December 4th we awarded the winners of the contest. It was a close decision with very good papers submitted. In the end we could only award the best three papers. Instead of having a second and third place we decided to give away two second places due to the close race. The Student Paper Contest was support by the Förderverein Technische Fakultät who donated the price money.

1. Andreas Berger. On the Impact of Sorted QR Decompositions for Sphere Decoding in Unique Word OFDM.

2. Christoph Klemenjak. Design of a cost-efficient smart meter built on the Arduino platform.

2. Stefan Trampitsch. Fundamentals of Complex Valued Data Estimation.

Congratulations to you!

We would like to thank all participants of the contest and congratulate you! Submitting your paper you have gained experience and received valuable comments on your work. At this point we also like to thank our reviewers who did a terrific job. We will submit Christoph’s paper to the Region 8 Student Paper Contest. Good luck for the next competition.
