University of Birmingham, School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Reader in Communications Engineering
Costas Constantinou received his B.Eng. (Hons) in Electronic and Communications Engineering and Ph.D. in Electronic and Electrical Engineering degree from the University of Birmingham, U.K., in 1987 and 1991, respectively. In 1989 he joined the Faculty of the School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at the University of Birmingham and is now a Reader in Communications Engineering. He currently heads the radiowave propagation research activity in the Communications Engineering Research Group. His research interests in communications span a broad range of topics that includes optics, electromagnetic theory, electromagnetic scattering and diffraction, electromagnetic measurement, radiowave propagation modelling, mobile radio and future communications networks architectures. Costas has been involved in the antennas and propagation research for body area communications led by Prof Peter Hall since its inception seven years ago and is the PI on the latest EPSRC-funded effort to extend this research to the 60 GHz band.
