Prof Fredrik Gustafsson

is professor in Sensor Informatics at Department of Electrical Engineering, Linköping University, since 2005. He received the M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering 1988 and the Ph.D. degree in Automatic Control, 1992, both from Linköping University. During 1992-1999 he held various positions in automatic control, and in 1999 he got a professorship in Communication Systems. He is an IEEE Fellow since 2011. In 2004, he was awarded the Arnberg prize by the Royal Swedish Academy of Science (KVA), in 2007 he was elected member of the Royal Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA) and in 2011 he got an award from SAAB in the name of former CEO Åke Svensson. He waw elevated to IEEE Fellow 2011, and awarded the Harry Rowe Mimno Award 2011 for the tutorial "Particle Filter Theory and Practice with Positioning Applications", which was published in the AESS Magazine in July 2010.

His research interests are in stochastic signal processing, adaptive filtering and change detection, with applications to communication, vehicular, airborne and audio systems.

He was an associate editor for IEEE Transactions of Signal Processing 2000-2006 and is currently associate editor for EURASIP Journal on Applied Signal Processing and IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems.

He has supervised 16 PhD, 22 licentiate and more than 170 master theses. He is the author of five books and over 170 conference papers, 60 journal papers and some twenty patents (publication list). His current h-index is 33, see his current bibliometric statistics.

He is co-founder of NIRA Dynamics AB, developing automotive signal processing algorithms, and Softube AB, developing software based simulation products for guitar amplifiers, and SenionLab AB, developing personal indoor navigation solutions.
