Research

My research themes range from digital signal processing, wireless communications, with particular interest on cellular mobile communication, information theory and audio signal processing in automotive context.
The main research fields in which I'm involved in are:

  • Active Noise Control (ANC) systems within the cabin of cars;
  • Physical layer of fifth generation of cellular mobile communications (5G);
  • Algorithm design for channel estimation in a massive MIMO scenario;
  • Software design of acoustic and visual Virtual Reality (VR) systems for automotive scenario.
