Background
Soontorn Oraintara received the B.E. degree in telecommunications
engineering from the King Mongkut's Institute of Technology
Ladkrabang (KMITL), Bangkok 1995. He received the
M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering,
respectively, from the University of Wisconsin, Madison
in 1996 and Boston University in 2000. He was a research
assistant in the Multirate DSP Lab at Boston University
from 1997 to 2000. From May 1998 to May 2000, he was
a summer intern and a consultant in the Advanced Development
and Research Group at Ericsson Inc., Research Triangle
Park, NC. He recently joined the University of Texas
at Arlington as an assistant professor in the Department
of Electrical Engineering. His research interests
are in digital signal processing, multirate systems,
wavelets and filter banks with application in communications,
image/video compression and image restoration and
reconstruction. Dr. Oraintara is a co-inventor (with
Dr. Truong Nguyen and Ying-Jui Chen) of two patents
on integer Discrete Cosine Transform and Integer Fast
Fourier Transform. The first patent has received the
Technology Development Award from Boston University's
Community Technology Fund.
