Bio: Sergiy A. Vorobyov (M\\\'02-SM\\\'05) was born in Ukraine in 1972. He received the
M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in systems and control from Kharkiv National
University of Radioelectronics in 1994 and 1997, respectively.
From 1995 to 2000, he was with the Control Systems Research Laboratory at
the same university where he became a Senior Research Scientist in 1999.
From 1999 to 2001, he was with the Brain Science Institute, Institute of
Physical and Chemical Research (RIKEN), Japan, as a Research Scientist. From
2001 to 2003 he was with the Department of Electrical and Computer
Engineering, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, as a
Postdoctoral Fellow. From 2003 to 2004 and from 2005 to 2006, he was a
Senior Researcher at the Departments of Communication Systems in the
University of Duisburg-Essen, Duisburg, Germany, and Darmstadt University of
Technology, Darmstadt, Germany, respectively. In August 2006 he will join
the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of
Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada as an Assistant Professor. He also held
short-time visiting appointments at the Institute of Applied Computer
Science, Karlsruhe, Germany, in 1996; Gerhard-Mercator University, Duisburg,
Germany, in 2002; and Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa,
Israel, 2005. His research interests include statistical array signal
processing, robust adaptive beamforming, application of linear algebra and
optimization methods, estimation and detection theory, wireless and
multicarrier communications, blind source separation, and control theory.
Dr. Vorobyov was a recipient of the 2004 IEEE Signal Processing Society Best
Paper Award for his paper on robust minimum variance beamforming. He was
also a recipient of the 1999 DAAD Fellowship (Germany); the 1996 and 1997
Young Scientist Research Grants from the George Soros Foundation; and the
1996-1998 Young Scientist Fellowship of the Ukrainian Cabinet of Ministers.
