Profile
Dr. Fernando Gordejuela Sanchez, Research Fellow
Dr. Fernando Gordejuela-Sanchez obtained his Ph.D. on 3G/4G/WiMAX
network planning and optimization, and cooperative wireless
communications at the University of Bedfordshire, UK (UoB, www.beds.ac.uk),
in early 2010. Fernando joined the Centre for Wireless Network Design
(CWiND, cwind.org) at UoB in October 2006 as a Marie-Curie fellow. He
received his B.Eng. and M.Eng. degrees in Telecommunication Systems and
Telecommunication Engineering from Miguel Hernandez University (UMH, www.umh.es) in Elche (Alicante), Spain, in 2003 and 2005 respectively.
Before
joining CWiND, he spent a period in the industry in UK during 2006,
working in several areas related to the development of different
software packages (at wsipowerontheweb.com).
In 2005 he worked
at the Eurolab R&D centre of Ericsson (ericsson.com) in Aachen,
Germany, in the Department of Radio Systems within the International
Internship Program 2005.
Fernando also worked in teaching
maths and other I.T. related subjects for more than three years as a
part-time job in Alicante, Spain (at schoola.net).
Besides his activities, Fernando enjoys travel, cinema, sport and having good time with friends.
