Short Bio
Fernando Pérez-González received the
Telecommunications Engineer Degree from the
He joined the faculty of the School of Telecommunications
Engineering , University
of Vigo , as an assistant professor in 1990 and is currently
Professor in the same institution. Since 2009 he is the holder of the Prince of Asturias Endowed Chair on
Information Science and Technology at the University
of New Mexico (UNM), where he spends every Fall Semester.
His research interests lie in the areas of
digital communications, adaptive algorithms, robust control, digital
watermarking and information forensics and security. He has been the principal
investigator of a number of projects concerned with digital television and
radio, both for satellite and terrestrial broadcasting, an area in which he
holds two European patents. He is coeditor of the
book Intelligent Methods in Signal Processing and Communications (Boston, MA: Birkhauser, 1997), has been Guest Editor of three special
sections of the EURASIP journal Signal Processing devoted to signal processing
for communications and digital watermarking, as well as Guest Editor of a
Feature Topic of the IEEE Communications Magazine on digital watermarking.
Prof. Pérez-González was the Chairman of the
5th and 6th Baiona Workshops on Signal Processing in
Communications, held in
From 2007-2010 he was Manager of the Spanish
National R&D Plan on Electronic and Communication Technologies, Ministry of
Science and Innovation. He is the founding Executive Director of the
Galician Research and
Prof. Pérez-González served as Associate Editor
of IEEE Signal
Processing Letters (2005-2009) and IEEE Trans.
on Information Forensics and Security (2006-2010). Currently, he is
Associate Editor of the following journals:
·
LNCS Transactions on Data Hiding and
Multimedia Security,
·
EURASIP International Journal on
Information Security, and
Since 2010 he is an Elected Member of the Information Forensics and Security
