Biography
-
André Bourdoux received the M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering (specialization in microelectronics) in 1982 from the Université Catholique de Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium. He joined IMEC in 1998 and is now Principal Member of the Technical Staff in the " Perceptive Systems for the IoT " Department of IMEC. He is a system level and signal processing expert for the mm-wave and sub-10GHz baseband teams and for the mm-wave radar team. His current research interests are multi-disciplinary, spanning the areas of wireless communications and signal processing, with a special emphasis on broadband systems and emerging physical layer techniques. He contributes algorithms and signal processing architectures for the physical layer of advanced wireless communication systems such as wireless LANs, cellular networks and broadcasting systems.
He is a renowned expert in OFDM, MIMO, MU-MIMO and 60GHz communications and high resolution radars; he holds several patents in these fields. He has been and still is involved for IMEC in several European projects. He also represents IMEC in the standardization of WLAN and WPAN systems, actively contributing to standards working groups such as IEEE 802.11 and 802.15.
