Biography
Fernando Brunetti was born
in Asunción, Paraguay. In 2004, he received his Electrical Engineering (six years career) diploma from the Universidad Católica de Asunción, in Paraguay. In 2005, he received a second M.S. degree from the School of Informatics of the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), Spain. Currently, he is part of the Bioengineering Group of the Industrial Automation Institute (CSIC) and a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Telecommunications Engneering of the UPM. From October of 2007, he is visiting the
Broadband Wireless Networking
Laboratory, Georgia Institute of
Technology, under the supervision of Prof. Ian F. Akyildiz.
