Brief Bio:  Amir Leshem (SM\\\'06) received the B.Sc.(cum laude) in mathematics and physics, the M.Sc. (cum laude) in mathematics, and the Ph.D. in mathematics all from the Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel, in 1986,1990 and 1998 respectively. From 1998 to 2000 he was with Faculty of Information Technology and Systems, Delft university of technology, The Netherlands, as a postdoctoral fellow working on algorithms for the reduction of terrestrial electromagnetic interference in radio-astronomical radio telescope antenna arrays and signal processing for communication. From 2000 to 2003 he was director of advanced technologies with Metalink Broadband where he was responsible for research and development of new DSL and wireless MIMO modem technologies and served as a member of ITU-T SG15, ETSI TM06, NIPP-NAI, IEEE 802.3 and 802.11. From 2000 to 2002 he was also a visiting researcher at Delft University of Technology. He is one of the founders of the new school of electrical and computer engineering at Bar-Ilan university where he is currently an Associate Professor and head of the Signal Processing track. From 2003 to 2005 he also was the technical manager of the U-BROAD consortium developing technologies to provide 100 Mbps and beyond over copper lines. His main research interests include multichannel wireless and wireline communication, applications of game theory to dynamic and adaptive spectrum management of communication networks, array and statistical signal processing with applications to multiple element sensor arrays and networks in radio-astronomy, brain research, wireless communications and radio-astronomical imaging, set theory, logic and foundations of mathematics
Focus:  Signal processing for communications, array processing, statistical signal processing
