Robert Gray Gallager (Filadélfia, 29 de maio de 1931) é um engenheiro eletrônico estadunidense. Conhecido por seu trabalho sobre teoria da informação e redes de telecomunicação. Recebeu o Prêmio Claude E. Shannon da IEEE Information Theory Society em 1983.
Robert Gray Gallager (born May 29, 1931) is an American electrical engineer known for his work on information theory and communications networks. Gallager was elected a member of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) in 1979 for contributions to coding and communications theory and practice.
Professor Gallager was involved in the founding of Codex Corporation in 1962 (now part of Motorola) and consulted there for many years. His fundamental studies on quadrature amplitude modulation and detection led directly to the 9600 bps modems that provided Codex’s commercial success.
Robert Gallager’s research is focused on data communications networks, wireless communications and distributed algorithms. He is Co-Director of the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems whose fundamental research goal is to advance the field of systems, communication and control.
Gallager's recent information theory work focuses on multiaccess communication. In the mid 1970's, Gallager's research focus shifted to data networks. He is well known for his work on distributed algorithms, routing, congestion controls and random access techniques.
Robert Gallager wins 2020 Japan Prize. The EECS emeritus professor is being recognized for groundbreaking contributions in information and coding theory.
Robert G. Gallager (Life Fellow, IEEE) received the Sc.D. degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, MA, USA, in 1960. He was a Faculty Member at MIT until gradually retiring.
