Qualcomm today announces the elevation of Roberto Padovani to executive vice president and chief technology officer. Padovani is the inventor or co-inventor of 45 of the company's patents covering various aspects of Qualcomm's CDMA technology. In his new role, Padovani will focus on shaping and supporting the company's technical direction, oversee business activities and guide the development of the CDMA migration path, the company says. '[Padovani's] advancements have led to the successful standardization of IS-95 and the design of the first CDMA chipset. He also led the development of High Data Rate technology that is now the basis for CDMA 1xEV-DO,' says Irwin Jacobs, Qualcomm's chairman and chief executive. Franklin Antonio, who served as the company's CTO since 1996, becomes executive vice president and chief scientist. Qualcomm also today announces the first call using its radioOne Zero Intermediate Frequency technology and the MSM6000 CDMA2000 1x chipset. The next-gen call was placed by Qualcomm CDMA Technologies President Dan Schrock to Irwin Jacobs.
