Dirk Slock

Dirk Slock received an Engineering degree from the University of Gent, Belgium, in 1982. In 1984 he was awarded a Fulbright scholarship from Stanford University, where he received the M.S. degree in EE, M.S. degree in statistics, and Ph.D. degree in EE in 1986, 1989, and 1989, respectively. While at Stanford, he developed new fast RLS algorithms for adaptive filtering. During 1989–1991, he was with Philips Research Belgium. In 1991, he joined the Eurecom Institute where he is now a Professor. He teaches and does research on statistical signal processing and its application to wireless communications. He invented semiblind equalization, single-antenna interference cancellation for GSM, and the equalizer-correlator receiver now used in 3G WCDMA terminals. In 2000, he cofounded SigTone, a start-up developing music DSP product. He has also been a consultant on xDSL and DVB-T systems. He received one Best Journal Paper Award from the IEEE-SP and one from EURASIP in 1992. He is the coauthor of two IEEE Globecom98, one IEEE SIU'04, and one IEEE SPAWC'05 Best Student Paper Award. He was an Associate editor for the IEEE-SP Transactions in 1994–1996. He is an Editor for EURASIP JASP, for which he also guest edited two special issues. He is a Fellow of the IEEE.
