BIOGRAPHY
Musbah Shaat was born in 1982. He obtained his engineering degree major in communication and control from the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the Islamic University of Gaza (IUG)[1], Palestine (1999-2004). He worked for one year (2004-2005) as full time teaching assistant at the electrical engineering department at the IUG. He awarded the DAAD "German Academic Exchange Service" [2] master scholarship and got the master degree in communication and electronics engineering from Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST)[3], Jordan (2005-2007). He is now pursuing his PhD diploma at the Signal Theory and Communication department (TSC) at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC)[4], Spain. He has been awarded with CTTC's [5] PhD fellowship since September 2007 and he is working in the Access Technologies Area.
