Tiago Vinhoza

Tiago T. V. Vinhoza received his diploma, M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Pontificia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio) in 1999, 2003 and 2007, respectively. Mr. Vinhoza's doctoral dissertation was on structures and adaptive algorithms for blind CDMA interference suppression. He devised new blind adaptive algorithms for parameter estimation and proposed receiver structures for interference mitigation. Mr. Vinhoza had also several collaborations with other students from his former research group at PUC-Rio, mainly on single carrier block transmission systems, OFDM and multicarrier CDMA. Since 2008, he is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Networking and Information Processing Group (NIP) of the Instituto de Telecomunicações (IT - Porto) where he is doing research on wireless information-theoretic security.
