معرفی
Sérgio de Almeida Matos is an Associate Professor with Habilitation at the Department of Information Science and Technology, School of Technology and Architecture, Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL). He is also Deputy Director and Integrated Researcher at the Institute of Telecommunications – IUL (IT-IUL), where he leads research within the Antenna and Propagation Group.
His educational background includes a Bachelor's, Master's, and Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), University of Lisbon, completed in 2004, 2006, and 2010, respectively. In 2022, he obtained the Aggregation in Science and Communication Technologies from ISCTE-IUL, confirming his qualification for the Associate Professor rank.
His primary research interests lie in the design of millimeter-wave antennas for satellite, 5G, and 6G applications. He specializes in numerical modeling of electromagnetic problems, electromagnetic wave propagation in metamaterials, and a coordinate-independent approach to electromagnetic waves. His work has significant impact in national and international satellite communication projects, particularly in the Ka-band.
He has authored or co-authored over 110 technical papers, with high citation counts across Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. His research outputs span journal articles and conference proceedings, focusing on advanced antenna technologies and electromagnetic theory, though specific titles are not listed in the source text.
- IEEE Senior Member (since 2019)
He actively supervises graduate students, currently advising two doctoral candidates and one master’s student. His guidance has led to the successful completion of two master’s theses on metallic antenna design for 5G and 3D-printed dielectric lenses. He has been consistently involved in teaching core engineering courses such as Electromagnetism and Fundamentals of Guided and Wireless Transmission at the undergraduate level. He also previously taught 'Propagation and Radiation of Electromagnetic Waves'.
He is a key member of the Antenna and Propagation Group at IT-IUL and contributes to national and international academic leadership, including serving as Chair of the Scientific Committee B (Fields and Waves) of the Portuguese URSI Committee and as a member of the EuCAP Steering Committee. His work integrates theoretical modeling with practical antenna development, often leveraging 3D printing technologies for next-generation wireless systems.
