Short biography
Barbara Mavi' Masini received the Laurea degree (with honors)
and the Ph.D. degree in telecommunications engineering from the
University of Bologna, Italy, in 2001 and 2005, respectively.
In 2002, she joined the Department of Electrical, Electronic,
and Information Engineering "Guglielmo Marconi" - DEI at the
University of Bologna, to develop his research activity in the area
of wireless communications.
Since 2005, she is a researcher at the Institute for Electronics
and for Information and Telecommunications Engineering (IEIIT),
Research Unit of Bologna, of the National Research Council (CNR)
working on wireless transmission techniques. Since 2006 she is also
adjunct Professor at the University of Bologna where she holds the
course of Telecommunication Systems.
Research
The research activity is performed within WiLAB (Wireless
Communication Laboratory) in Bologna. WiLAB includes researchers
and resources from DEI, IEIIT, and CNIT.
Her research interests are mainly focused on vehicular
networks, facing several issues, from physical and MAC aspects up
to real field trial implementations. Special attention has been
paid to vehicular sensor networks for urban sensing, environment
monitoring, and cellular network offloading.
Research is also focused on physical layer aspects of
cooperative networks and energy harvesting.
She is involved in several national and international projects
dealing with smart mobility in smart cities.
Dr. Masini is a member of the IEEE Communication and Vehicular
Technology Societies and acts as Reviewer and technical program
committee (TPC) for several IEEE journals and conferences.
Teaching
Since the academic year 2006/2007 she is Adjunt Professor at the
University of Bologna. In particular, since 2006, she is Adjunt
