About the author

Martin Sibley recently retired after 33 years of teaching at the University of Huddersfield. He has a Ph.D. from Huddersfield Polytechnic in Preamplifier Design for Optical Receivers. He started his career in academia in 1986 having spent 3 years as a post-graduate student and then 2 years as a British Telecom-funded research fellow. His research work had a strong bias to the practical implementation of research and he taught electromagnetism and communications at all levels since 1986. Dr. Sibley finished his academic career as a Reader in Communications, School of Computing and Engineering, University of Huddersfield. He has authored 3 books and published nearly 100 research papers.
