He received his Diploma degree (Dipl.-Ing.) and his PhD from the Vienna University of Technology in 2002 and 2007, respectively. From 2003 to 2007 he was employed at the Austrian Research Centers GmbH, where he was working on the development of low-complexity smart antenna and MIMO algorithms as well as on the ARC SmartSim real-time hardware channel simulator. His current research and teaching interests are in MIMO and collaborative communications. He is strongly involved in the OpenAirInterface.org activities, where he is working on the EURECOM real-time MIMO channel sounder (EMOS) as well physical layer algorithms for next generation wireless networks. He actively participated in several FP6 and FP7 projects and is currently managing EURECOM’s part of the SAMURAI project.
