Emanuele
Viterbo received his
degree (Laurea) in Electrical Engineering in 1989 and his
Ph.D. in 1995 in Electrical Engineering, both from the Politecnico di
Torino, Torino, Italy. From 1990 to 1992 he was with the
European Patent Office, The Hague, The Netherlands, as a patent
examiner in the field of dynamic recording and error-control coding.
Between 1995 and 1997 he held a post-doctoral position in the
Dipartimento di Elettronica of the Politecnico di Torino. In 1997-98 he
was a post-doctoral research fellow in the Information Sciences
Research Center of AT&T Research, Florham Park, NJ, USA. He
became first Assistant Professor (1998) then Associate Professor (2005)
in Dipartimento di Elettronica at Politecnico di Torino. In 2006 he
became Full Professor in DEIS at University of Calabria, Italy. From
2010 he is Full Professor in the ECSE Department and Associate Dean for Research Training
in the Faculty of Engineering at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia.
Prof. Emanuele Viterbo is a 2011 Fellow of the IEEE, a
ISI Highly Cited Researcher and
Member of the Board of Governors of the IEEE Information Theory Society (2011-2013). He is Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on
Information Theory, European Transactions on
Telecommunications and Journal of Communications
and Networks, and Guest Editor for IEEE Journal
of Selected Topics in Signal Processing: Special Issue Managing
Complexity in Multiuser MIMO Systems.
In 1993 he was visiting researcher in the Communications
Department of DLR, Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany. In 1994 and 1995 he was
visiting the cole Nationale Suprieure des Telcommunications (E.N.S.T.),
Paris. In 2003 he was visiting researcher at the Maths Department of
EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland. In 2004 he was visiting researcher at the
Telecommunications Department of UNICAMP, Campinas, Brazil. In 2005,
2006 and 2009 he was visiting researcher at the ITR of UniSA, Adelaide,
Australia. In 2007 he was visiting fellow at the Nokia Research Center,
Helsinki, Finland.
Dr. Emanuele Viterbo was awarded a NATO Advanced
Fellowship in 1997 from the Italian National Research Council. His main
research interests are in lattice codes for the Gaussian and fading
channels, algebraic coding theory, algebraic space-time coding, digital
terrestrial television broadcasting, and digital magnetic recording.
