Biography
Pablo Ameigeiras received his M.Sc.degree in Telecommunication Engineering in 1999 by the University of Malaga (Spain). He carried out his Master Thesis at the Chair of Communication Networks, Aachen University (Germany), under the supervision of P. Seidenberg and Professor B. Walke in the field of Random Access Mechanisms for Packet Services in UMTS.In 2000, he joined the Cellular System Group at Aalborg University (Denmark). He worked toward his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (Wireless Communications specialization) under the supervision of J. Wigard and Professor P. Mogensen, and with full sponsorship from Nokia Networks. In 2003 he defended his Ph.D. thesis "Radio Resource Management and Quality of Service for packet services in High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA)" where he studied state-of-art packet scheduling algorithms under QoS constraints for different services.
After finishing his Ph.D., Pablo worked for Optimi Corporation (later acquired by telecom equipment manufacturer Ericsson) as a Senior Member of Technical Staff. He was responsible for the design and development of software tools for the evaluation of 3G networks. Additionally he investigated radio planning and automatic optimization techniques for 3G networks.
In 2006, he joined the Department of Signal Theory, Telematics, and Communications and the Wireless and Multimedia Networking Lab at the University of Granada (Spain). Since then, he has been leading several projects in the field of 4G and 5G systems. During these years he has been researching the application of the Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) paradigm for 5G systems including Network Slicing. Currently, he is researching the usage of the paradigm of Deterministic Networking as a design principle to enable the low and deterministic latency required by 6G applications for scenarios of connected robotics and autonomous systems (such as Industry 4.0).
