Dmitry Ageyev

Dmitry V. Ageyev was admitted to the Radio Engineering Faculty of the Leningrad Electrotechnical Institute of Communications (LEIS) in 1930, where he learnt from the scientists of his time, such as a founder of the national radio engineering and correspondent member of Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union M. A. Bonch-Bruyevich, Professor Vladimir Tatarinov and others.

In 1934 he publishes an article with Y. B. Kobzarev “The Transition in the Resonance Amplifier”, which opened a new direction, the study of transients.

In 1935 he defended his dissertation “The Methods of Dealing with Noise in the Radio Reception”, which he wrote under the direction of M. A. Bonch-Bruyevich. The State Examination Commission appreciated the thesis. The results of his research paper became the basis for an article “The Fundamentals of the Linear Selection Theory”, which was used for his thesis “The Linear Methods of Selection and the Problem of the Ether’s Bandwidth”. The LEIS Scientific Council had no right to take the defense of doctoral dissertations, but they conferred a PhD degree on D. V. Ageyev, giving him the right to defend the dissertation as a doctoral. However, he did not want to use this work twice. He wrote and defended his doctoral dissertation “A New Method of Multi-Channel Wiring” in just one year. Ageyev proposed and investigated a new principle of multicast signals and their processing, which allowed reducing the influence of impulse noise.
