Paolo Braca (M’14) received the Laurea degree (summa cum laude) in electronic engineering, and the Ph.D. degree (highest rank) in information engineering from the University of Salerno, Salerno, Italy, in 2006 and 2010, respectively. In 2009, he was a Visiting Scholar with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT, USA, working with Prof. P. K. Willett. In 2010, he was a Senior Engineer with D'Appolonia S.p.A., Rome, Italy. In 2010–2011, he was a Postdoctoral Associate with the University of Salerno, Salerno, Italy. In October 2011, he joined the NATO Science & Technology Organization Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE, formerly known as SACLANTCENT and NURC) as a Scientist with the Research Department. He is involved in developing signal processing techniques for different kind of sensor network technologies, including low-power radar sensor network (X-band and HF surface wave), sonar AUV network, and transponder-based satellite/terrestrial sensors. A special emphasis is given to the study of distributed and autonomous signal processing techniques applied to networked systems. Typically, these techniques are scientifically validated and tested during NATO experimentation in the field of maritime security and antisubmarine warfare. He is coauthor of more than 70 publications in international scientific journals, conference proceedings, and NATO technical reports. Dr. Braca is currently an Associate Editor of the IEEE Signal Processing Magazine (E-Newsletter) and the Journal of Advances in Information Fusion, and Reviewer for several scientific journals and conferences. He has been a Co-Organizer with Prof. P. K. Willett of the special session Multisensor Multitarget Tracking at the European Signal Processing Conference 2013. He was the recipient of the Best Student Paper Award (second place) at the 12th Conference on Information Fusion in 2009.
