Giovanni Del Galdo received in 2002 the Laurea degree in Telecommunications Engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy. In 2007, under the guidance of Prof. Martin Haardt, he obtained the Dr.-Ing. degree from Technische Universität Ilmenau, Ilmenau, Germany. His dissertation, entitled “Geometry-based Channel Modeling for Multi-User MIMO Systems and Applications” may be downloaded here. He then joined the Communication Acoustics group as Senior Scientist in the Audio Department of the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS. Here, he was also member of the International Audio Laboratories Erlangen (AudioLabs) in cooperation with Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. His research was focused on audio watermarking and parametric representations of spatial sound. Since 2012, he has been leading a collaborative research group, comprising a department at Fraunhofer IIS and a chair at TU Ilmenau. In 2016, the group merged with the chair of Electronic Measurements led by Prof. Reiner Thomä, giving rise to the Electronic Measurements and Signal Processing (EMS) group, which currently includes approximately 60 staff members. His current research interests include: - analysis, modeling, and design of multidimensional signals and systems
- measurement systems for multidimensional characterization (e.g. MIMO channel sounding) up to sub-THz frequencies, ranging from inexpensive SDR solutions up to high-performance specialized hardware
- Over-The-Air (OTA) testing for terrestrial and satellite wireless systems (communications and navigation)
- High resolution parameter estimation, compressed sensing and sparsity promoting reconstruction methods
