Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto

Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto is a engineering topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto rather than just read about it. In short: Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto (born 1958) is an Italian electrical, audio, and communications engineer, whose research involves speech processing, wireless communication, and ultra-wideband signal processing. She is a professor of electrical engineering at Sapienza University of Rome.

Key takeaways

  • Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto belongs to engineering; place it in that map before memorising details.
  • Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
  • Connect Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
  • Reproduce the core statement of Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto (born 1958) is an Italian electrical, audio, and communications engineer, whose research involves speech processing, wireless communication, and ultra-wideband signal processing. She is a professor of electrical engineering at Sapienza University of Rome. She should be distinguished from Maria Domenica Di Benedetto, another Italian electrical engineer with similar career details.

Education and career M.-G. Di Benedetto earned a laurea from Sapienza University of Rome in 1981, and completed her PhD in telecommunications there in 1987. After postdoctoral research at Selenia Spazio and a visiting position at the University of Perugia, she became an associate professor at Paris-Sud University in 1990 before returning to Sapienza University as an associate professor there in 1991. She also held a position as associate professor at the University of L'Aquila for 1995–1996, and has been a full professor of telecommunications at Sapienza University since 2000. She visited the University of California, Berkeley in 1994 as John H. MacKay, Jr., Professor of Electrical Engineering, and was a visitor to the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University for 2019–2020, where she was the William Bentinck-Smith Fellow. She is a Research Affiliate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, MA.

Book M.-G. Di Benedetto is a coauthor of the book Understanding Ultra Wide Band Radio Fundamentals (with Guerino Giancola, Prentice-Hall, 2004). She is also an editor of several edited volumes on ultra wide band radio and speech processing.

Recognition M.-G. Di Benedetto was named an IEEE Fellow, associated with the IEEE Communications Society, in the 2016 class of fellows, "for contributions to impulse-radio ultra wideband and cognitive networks for wireless communications". In 2019 she was named Fellow of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto

In research
Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry
Engineering practice reuses Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom
Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1958 births, Academic staff of the Sapienza University of Rome, Fellows of the IEEE, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life
Look for Maria-Gabriella Di Benedetto outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
