Pedro Rito received the M.Sc. degree in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering from University of Aveiro, Portugal and Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Technische Universität Berlin, Germany, in 2011 and 2019, respectively. In 2013 he joined IHP GmbH, Frankfurt (Oder), Germany, as a Researcher, and in 2018 he joined Cisco Optical GmbH, Nürnberg, Germany, as a Hardware Engineer, investigating and developing state-of-the-art high-efficient and high-bandwidth electro-optical interconnects for datacenters, metro and long-haul communications. From 2020, he has been with Instituto de Telecomunicações (IT) in Aveiro, Portugal, as an Assistant Researcher in the Network Architectures and Protocols group and Innovation Officer for the Aveiro STEAM City EU-funded project, with responsibilities in developing use-cases and deploying the infrastructure of the Aveiro Tech City Living Lab. He participated as a Researcher in the FCT-funded research project MH-SDVanet, in the P2020 CityCatalyst, IMMINENCE, Mobilizer PAC Mobinov, and SNOB-5G projects, EU DG Connect Ride2Autonomy, and Horizon Europe Fed4FIRE+ OpenCall. He participates now in the P2020 POWER, PRR CONNECT5, NewSpace, Route25, AM2R, and Testbed NextGen Mobility, and Horizon Europe 6G-PATH. During his research activity he has published more than 60 publications (22 of which in peer-reviewed journals) and he holds 1 US/EU patent. His current research interests include radio access networks, software-defined networking, vehicular communications, edge-computing and smart cities.
