Danilo Orlando (IEEE Senior Member) was born in Gagliano del Capo, Italy, in 1978. He received the Dr. Eng. degree (with honors) in computer engineering and the Ph.D. degree (with maximum score)
in information engineering from the University of Salento (formerly Università degli Studi di Lecce), Lecce, Italy, in 2004 and 2008, respectively. From 2007 to 2010, he was with the University of Cassino, Cassino, Italy, engaged in a research project on algorithms for track-before-detect of multiple targets in uncertain scenarios. From September to November 2009, he was a Visiting Scientist with the NATO Undersea Research Centre, La Spezia, Italy. From 2011 to 2015, he was with Elettronica S.p.A. engaged as System Analyst in the field of electronic warfare. From 2015 to 2024, he was an Associate Professor in the field of signal processing at a University of Rome, Italy. From 2024, he joined the Department of Information Engineering, Università degli Studi di Pisa, Pisa, Italy, as an Associate Professor. In 2007, he has held visiting positions with the Department of Avionics and Systems, ENSICA (now Institut Superieur de l'Aeronautique et de l'Espace (ISAE)), Toulouse, France, and from 2017 to 2019, with the Chinese Academy of Science, Beijing, China. He has authored or coauthored more than 200 scientific publications in international journals, conferences, and books. His main research interests include statistical signal processing with more emphasis on adaptive detection, target classification, clutter mitigation/estimation, and signal-processing-related ECCM techniques.
He is the Secretary of the Italian Chapter of IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Society. He has been area Chair for Radar Signal Processing in IEEE Sensor Array and Multichannel
Technical Committee. He is member of IEEE Sensor Array and Multichannel Technical Committee, IEEE Signal Processing Theory and Methods Technical Committee, and EURASIP Signal Processing for Multisensor Systems Technical Area Committee.
Dr. Orlando was a Senior Area Editor for IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SIGNAL PROCESSING and an Associate Editor for IEEE OPEN JOURNAL OF SIGNAL PROCESSING, he is currently an Associate Editor for IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON AEROSPACE AND ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS, IEEE SENSORS, EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, and Remote Sensing (MDPI).
