Maria Sabrina Greco (Fellow IEEE) is with the Dept. of Information Engineering of the University of Pisa, where she is Full Professor since 2017. She’s IEEE fellow since Jan. 2011. She was co-recipient of the 2001, 2012 and 2021 IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society’s Barry Carlton Awards for Best Paper published on the T-AES, co-recipient of 2019 EURASIP JASP Best Paper Award, co-recipient of the 2019 H Mimno Award for the best paper published on the AE Systems Magazine, recipient of the 2008 Fred Nathanson Young Engineer of the Year award for contributions to signal processing, estimation, and detection theory and of IEEE AESS Board of Governors Exceptional Service Award for “Exemplary Service and Dedication and Professionalism, as EiC of the IEEE AES Magazine”.
She has been general-chair, technical program chair and organizing committee member of many international conferences over the last 15 years. She has been also lead-guest editor of many special issues on Radar Signal Processing. She’s Editor in Chief of the EURASIP Journal of Advances in Signal Processing. She has been member of the IEEE SPS BoG (2015-17), Chair of the IEEE AESS Radar Panel (2015-16), SPS Distinguished Lecturer for the years 2014-2015, AESS Distinguished Lecturer, AESS VP Publications (2018-2020), EiC of the IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine and IEEE SPS Director-at-Large for Region 8 (2021-22). She’s now President of AESS (2024-25).
Her general interests are in the areas of statistical signal processing, estimation and detection theory. In particular, her research interests include clutter models, coherent and incoherent detection in non-Gaussian clutter, CFAR techniques, radar waveform diversity, bistatic/mustistatic active and passive radars, cognitive radars and integration of sensing and communications. She co-authored many book chapters and more than 320 journal and conference papers.
