Biography
Since 2010, Angel Lozano is a Full Professor at our Department. He is also, since 2011, UPF’s Vice-Rector for Research. He received his Ph.D. from Stanford University in 1998. Before joining UPF, he was with Bell Labs in Holmdel, USA, and with Columbia University. Prof. Lozano is a Fellow of the IEEE, the Chair of the IEEE Communication Theory Technical Committee and an elected member of the Board of Governors of the IEEE Communications Society. His research is on wireless communications, at the intersection of information theory, digital communications and signal processing. The goal of his work is to improve the resource utilization in wireless networks so as to increase the bit rate that can be communicated reliably while consuming the least amount of bandwidth and power and with the least amount of complexity, which is a proxy for cost. Currently, he is looking into designs for 5G wireless networks. Prof. Lozano has published extensively (>46 journal papers; >1600 ISI citations; >4500 Scholar citations), holds 15 patents. His papers have received several awards including the Stephen O. Rice prize to the best paper published in the IEEE Trans. on Communications in 2008.
