About me
Kutluyil Dogancay received the BS degree with honours in electrical and electronic engineering from Bogazici University, the MSc degree in communications and signal processing from Imperial College, University of London, and the PhD degree in telecommunications engineering from The Australian National University. Since November 1999 he has been with University of South Australia, where he is currently a professorial lead in the UniSA STEM Unit. Between 2018-2020, Professor Dogancay was Associate Head: Research and Innovation in School of Engineering. In 2012 he was appointed Assistant Dean of Research Education for the Division of Information Technology, Engineering and the Environment, and served in this role until 2015. During that time, he also acted as Dean of Research for a total period of 13 months.
Professor Dogancay's research interests span defence and telecommunication applications of statistical and adaptive signal processing. His research has been funded by the ARC, DST Group, Defence SA and industry through several competitive grants and research agreements. He has published more than 200 refereed journal articles, conference papers and reports, and two books (Signal Processing for Multistatic Radar Systems: Adaptive Waveform Selection, Optimal Geometries and Pseudolinear Tracking Algorithms, and Partial-Update Adaptive Signal Processing: Design, Analysis and Implementation). He holds two US patents jointly with Tellabs Inc on partial-update adaptive filters. He serves as a consultant to defence and private industry in signal processing, communications, and simulation and modelling related projects. He has participated in the technical program committees of several international conferences, including the European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO), IEEE Sensor Array and Multichannel Conference (SAM), and IEEE Statistical Signal Processing Workshop (SSP). He was the Tutorials Chair of the 2014 IEEE Statistical Signal Processing Workshop (SSP 14), and the Signal Processing and Communications Program Chair of the Information, Decision and Control Conference (IDC 2007).
Professor Dogancay is the Editor-in-Chief of Digital Signal Processing, Elsevier. He has received numerous awards, including DST/UniSA certificate of recognition for two projects, finalist for Academic of the Year in 2019 Australian Defence Industry Awards, 2015 Best Researcher Award of School of Engineering, and 2005 Tall Poppy Science Award of the Australian Institute of Political Science. He is a past chair of the IEEE South Australian Communications and Signal Processing Chapter, an associate member of the Sensor Array and Multichannel (SAM) Technical Committee of the IEEE Signal Processing Society, and a member of the Signal Processing and Computing for Communications (SPCC) Technical Committee of the IEEE Communications Society. From 2009-2017 he was an elected member of the Signal Processing Theory and Methods (SPTM) Technical Committee. In 2012 he became a Fellow of the Governor's Leadership Foundation (GLF) Program.
