scientific publications During my PhD I have been working on different subjects involved with localization techniques, i.e. with systems and algorithms providing an estimate of the physical location(s) of some device(s). This research area also includes tracking systems (i.e. continuous estimation of trajectories of moving devices), radar systems (where the target is usually non-cooperative), robot navigation systems, etc. Wikipedia contains a page about Real-time Location Systems (RTLS) which provides an overview about some aspects of this wide research area.

Additional information are available on the CommLAB website, i.e., the website of the lab where I have been working towards my PhD.

As effort to comply with the Reproducible Research Standard, I publish the source code (mostly MATLAB code) which I developed during my PhD and which was used to generate the numerical results of my papers. All the code is accessible through my SourceForge project collecting my scientific research code or through the links below.

Some information about my publications is also available on my public Mendeley profile, on my ResearcherID page and on my Google Scholar profile.

Here are my publications organized differentiating between journal, conference and submitted publications.
