Formerly Chief Technology Officer of Trex Enterprises Corporation, Dr. Lovberg led several R&D teams and product development groups. He devoted fifteen years of research creating the revolutionary passive millimeter-wave technology, which was first developed for the U.S. Army Research Laboratory under a multi-year, $20M R&D program. Dr. Lovberg also led the Cooperative Engagement Capability (CED) system engineering study that eventually led to Trex’s award of the NAVAIR contract to upgrade the U.S. Navy active C-band antenna.
Dr. Lovberg’s research has resulted in a dozen patents and he is recognized as the pioneer of the E-band multi-Gigabit wireless Radio Frequency technology. One of his accomplishments is authoring the Petition for Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rulemaking at 71-76 and 81-86 GHz that in October of 2003 led to the largest release of commercial wireless communications bandwidth in the history of the FCC. Dr. Lovberg’s wireless radio invention led to the creation of Loea Corporation, a subsidiary of Trex Enterprises, which is the first company in the nation creating high-speed radios operating in the 71-86 GHz frequency able to transmit 1.25 and more gigabits of information.
He received his Doctoral degree in Astrophysics from Princeton University and his Bachelor of Science degree in Physics from California Institute of Technology. He is the author of numerous publications.
