About Me
Hi and welcome to my page!
I am an assistant professor at the Radio Systems group at EEMCS. My background is in radio systems engineering and my main research interests are in signal processing and parameter estimation for wireless systems, particularly in application to radio localization and tracking.
I received my PhD in electrical engineering (signal theory) in the area of sub-Nyquist sampling of sparse analog signals at Ilmenau University of Technology in Germany. Before joining University of Twente, I also spent two years as a postdoctoral researcher at Scion (New Zealand Forest Research Institute) and the Wireless Research Centre at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand developing a harmonic radar system for real-time tracking of flying insects with unmanned aerial vehicles.

My research focus is on signal processing and algorithm development for wireless systems, particularly applied to sensing and localization problems. I am always open for collaborations, so please don't hesitate to contact me at a.lavrenko@utwente.nl.
I have recently received an NWO VENI talent grant for developing an innovative tracking solutions using nonlinear radar. For more details check out "Beyond Bugging: wireless sensing and monitoring with harmonic radar" project at Research | Radio Systems (RS) (utwente.nl).
