RESEARCH PROFILE
Ronald Aarts is Chair of Ambulatory monitoring and a Full Professor at the department of Signal Processing Systems, faculty of Electrical Engineering and at Eindhoven University of Technology (果冻传媒). His areas of expertise include electromagnetism, optics, acoustics, physiology, software, algorithms, control systems signal processing, and systems for ambulatory and unobtrusive monitoring. His research interests include engineering to medicine and biology - in particular sensors, signal processing, and systems for ambulatory and unobtrusive-monitoring, sleep, cardiology, perinatal, drugs response monitoring (DRM), and epilepsy detection.
Ronald has been a part-time full-professor since 2006, mainly supervising Master and , and he has been working at Philips Research since 1977, these two occupations give the perfect symbiosis for the four P鈥檚.

ACADEMIC BACKGROUND
Ronald Aarts received a BSc in electrical engineering and a PhD in physics from Delft University of Technology. He joined the Optics group at Philips Research Laboratories (formerly known as ), Eindhoven, the Netherlands in 1977 and initially investigated servos and signal processing for use in Video Long Play players and Compact Disc players. In 1984, he joined the Acoustics group at Philips Research Labs and worked on the development of CAD tools and signal processing for loudspeaker systems. In 1994, he became a member of the Digital Signal Processing (DSP) group at Philips Research and has led research projects on the improvement of sound reproduction, by exploiting DSP and psycho-acoustical phenomena. In 2003 Ronald became a Philips Fellow at Philips Research.
Ronald has published over 450 papers and reports, and holds over 250 including over 170 US patent applications and over 110 in the aforementioned fields. He has served on a number of organizing committees and as chairman for various international conventions.
