Scott Velazquez

Dr. Velazquez received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering – Electrical Engineer (EE) Degree, Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (MSEE), and Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Science and Engineering (BSEE) from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He has technical expertise in mixed digital and analog signal processing, filter design, hardware development and testing, multi-rate filter bank processing, and adaptive array processing.

At MIT, he developed analog-to-digital conversion systems, error modeling, and linearity compensation techniques; he also designed and implemented hardware for adaptive array processing communications receivers. While at MIT, he performed his doctoral work in conjunction with his research committee consisting of two world-renowned experts in analog amplification and digital signal processing: MIT Distinguished Professor James K. Roberge and MIT Distinguished Professor Alan V. Oppenheim. His original research performed at the MIT Strobe Laboratory, MIT Research Laboratory of Electronics, and MIT Lincoln Laboratory led to new discoveries in the field of digital signal processing using wavelet and filter bank optimization.

He has over 25 years of experience in mixed analog and digital signal processing. He has worked on analog-to-digital conversion systems, testing, error modeling, and linearity compensation techniques; designed and implemented hardware for adaptive array processing communications receivers; developed techniques and algorithms for ultrasound medical imaging, EEG signal analysis, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, and cellular telecommunications receivers.

He has been granted nearly two dozen United States Patents (and several pending patents) in the fields of analog-to­ digital converters, linearity error compensators, adaptive signal processing, multi-rate signal processing, communications systems and TM related methods.
