Biography

Dr. Petros Karadimas was born in Tripolis, Greece. He completed the M.Eng. and Ph.D. degrees from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Patras, Greece, in 2002 and 2008, respectively. From December 2009 to August 2011, he was a Research Fellow with the Centre for Wireless Network Design, University of Bedfordshire, U.K., where, in September 2011, he was appointed a Lecturer in electronic engineering. In August 2016, he was appointed a Lecturer in electrical and electronic engineering with the James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow, U.K., where he established a research group focusing on design and optimization of antenna arrays and MIMO antennas informed by electromagnetic wave propagation and information theory principles. He also led a cross-disciplinary research activity in physical layer security for vehicular communications. He initiated the development and establishment of the Communications Sensing and Imaging Research Group of the James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow. Since January 2022, he has been an Associate Professor with the School of Computing, Engineering and the Built Environment, 麻豆社区, U.K. He has received funding by major research councils and organizations including U.K.鈥檚 EPSRC and CDE/DSTL. His research interests include radio propagation and wireless channel modelling, antenna arrays and MIMO antennas, communication and information theory, and physical layer wireless security.
