About me
I am a Full Professor at the University of Cantabria and a member of the Advanced Signal Processing Group (GTAS in Spanish) in the Department of Communications Engineering (DICOM). My research interests include signal processing algorithms and information-theoretic aspects of multiuser multiantenna wireless communication systems, multivariate statistical techniques, and signal processing for inference, prediction, decision-making, and optimal design.
