Biography

Marcelo S. Alencar (Life Senior Member, IEEE) received the bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE), Brazil, the master’s degree in electrical engineering from the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB), Brazil, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Waterloo, Canada. He was with the Department of Electrical Engineering, UFPB; the Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG); and the State University of Santa Catarina (UDESC). He was a Visiting Professor with the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), Salvador, the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), Brazil, and the University of Toronto, Canada. He has published over 550 engineering and scientific articles and 30 books. He has been awarded several scholarships and grants, from the Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Research (CNPq), from the IEEE Foundation and from the University of Waterloo. He is a Laureate of the Prestigious 2014 Attilio Giarola Medal of the Brazilian Microwave and Optoelectronics Society (SBMO).
