Andrea Conti

Andrea Conti was born in Bologna, Italy, on December 20, 1972. He received the Dr.Ing. degree (with honors) in telecommunications engineering and the Ph.D. degree in electronic engineering and computer science, both from the University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy, in 1997 and 2001, respectively. From 1999 to 2005, he joined CNIT, IEIIT/CNR, and WiLab at the University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy. In Summer 2001, he joined the Wireless Section of AT&T Labs-Research, Middletown, NJ, USA and in February 2003, the Laboratory for Information & Decision Systems (LIDS) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In July 2005, he joined the University of Ferrara where he is currently a Researcher and Aggregate Professor. His research interests include wireless communications systems, mobile radio resource management, adaptive communication techniques, coding in faded MIMO channels, nonlinear effects in CDMA, WLAN and ad hoc networks, wireless sensor networks, immersive communication systems, and cooperative distributed telemeasurement laboratories. He serves the IEEE also as an Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions onWireless Communications.
