`
`
`
`Professional Summary
`
`Dr. Akl has over 28 years of industry and academic experience. He is
`currently a Tenured Associate Professor at the University of North Texas
`and a Senior Member of IEEE. He has designed, implemented, and
`optimized both hardware and software aspects of several wireless communication systems for
`CDMA, Wi-Fi, and sensor networks. Dr. Akl has broad expertise in wireless communication,
`Bluetooth, CDMA/WCDMA network optimization, GSM, LTE, VoIP, telephony, computer
`architecture, and computer networks. He is a very active researcher and is well published and
`cited. He has been awarded many research grants by leading companies in the industry and the
`National Science Foundation. He has developed and taught over 100 courses in his field. Dr.
`Akl has received several awards and commendations for his work, including the 2008 IEEE
`Professionalism Award and was the winner of the 2010 Tech Titan of the Future Award.
`
`Dr. Akl has extensive experience with patents in the wireless and networking industry. In the
`past ten years, he has worked as a technical expert in dozens of patent related matters, involving
`thousands of hours of research, investigation, and study. He has repeatedly been qualified as
`an expert by Courts, and has provided numerous technology tutorials to Courts, and given
`testimony by deposition and at trial. He has worked with companies large and small, both for
`and against the validity and infringement of patents, and has also helped counsel and Courts to
`understand technology that often seems complex. In doing so, he has become familiar with,
`and actively worked with, the legal principles that underlie patentability and validity and claim
`interpretation in the wireless and networking industries.
