Fernando J. Velez (M’93-SM’05) received the Licenciado, M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Instituto Superior Técnico, Technical University of Lisbon in 1993, 1996 and 2001, respectively. Since 1995 he has been with the Department of Electromechanical Engineering of Universidade da Beira Interior, Covilhã, Portugal, where he is Assistant Professor and he is also a researcher at Instituto de Telecomunicações. Fernando was a IEF Marie Curie Research Fellow in King’s College London in 2008/09 (OPTIMOBILE IEF) and a Marie Curie ERG fellow at Universidade da Beira Interior from 2010 until March 2013 (PLANOPTI ERG). He made or makes part of the teams of RACE/MBS, ACTS/SAMBA, COST 259, COST 273, COST 290, IST-SEACORN, IST-UNITE, PLANOPTI, COST 2100, COST IC0902, COST IC0905 “TERRA’, COST IC1004 and INSYSM European projects, he participated or is participating in SEMENTE, SMART-CLOTHING, UBIQUIMESH, NEUF (LTEAdvanced Enhancements using Femtocells), HANDCAD, ECOOP and CREaTION (Cognitive Radio Transceiver Design for Energy Efficient Data Transmission) Portuguese projects, and he was or is the coordinator of six Portuguese projects: SAMURAI, MULTIPLAN, CROSSNET, MobileMAN, OPPORTUNISTIC-CR and PROENERGY-WSN. Prof. Velez has been the coordinator of the WG2 (on Cognitive Radio/Software Defined Radio Coexistence Studies) of COST IC0905 “TERRA”. Prof. Velez has authored two books, thirteen book chapters, 160 papers and communications in international journals and conferences, plus 30 in national conferences, is a senior member of IEEE, IT and Ordem dos Engenheiros (EUREL), and a member of IET. His main research areas are cellular planning tools, traffic from mobility, crosslayer design, spectrum sharing/aggregation, and cost/revenue performance of advanced mobile communication systems.
