Biography

Brint Cooper is Associate Research Professor in the ECE Department at Johns Hopkins, where he received hisÌýundergraduate and doctoral degrees. For seven years, he worked in industry on phased array radar systems,Ìýpseudorandom sequences for jam-resistant communications, and co-channel satellite repeaters. For 33 years, heÌýwas with the US Army Research Laboratory (and predecessor R&D organizations) where he conducted researchÌýinto algebraic methods for decoding cyclic channel codes, defined a collaborative Army research program forÌýbattlefield wireless networking, and evaluated the performance of developmental communications systems. InÌýcollaboration with Dr. R. Adams Cowley, the founder of Maryland’s storied Shock-Trauma Center, he led a team of three that devised the first emergency medical communication system (EMS) for Baltimore, MD, and the five surrounding counties, andÌýwas instrumental in securing funds for its development. He was Adjunct Professor of ECE from 1996 to 2001 at the University of Delaware and from 1998 to 2001 at Morgan State University.

His current research interestsÌýinclude error control coding, massive MIMO, THz communications, anomaly detection in wireless systems, and signal processing for LiDAR-based identification and classification systems.Ìý He is the inventor of the one-step BCH decoder known as the "Cooper Philosophy."
