In 1991 he joined the Department of Communication and Audio & Video Engineering at Technical University of Madrid as an Assistant Professor, where he carried out research on Digital Communication Systems. In 1995 he changed his position to Associate Professor, being involved with Numerical Methods Applied to Electromagnetic Field problems. Now, his research interest lies in the History of Electrical Engineering. A research work developed from 2004 to 2006 led to the dedication of an IEEE Milestone in Electrical Engineering and Computing to the Telekino of Leonardo Torres y Quevedo on March 2007[3].

He received his B.Eng. in Radio-Communications (1991), M.Eng. in Telecommunications (1996) and Ph.D. (cum laude) in Electrical Engineering (2004), all from the Technical University of Madrid. His Ph.D. thesis was related to the history of the Spanish Telephone Service[4]. He also obtained his B.Sc. in Physics (1992) from the National University for Distance Education (Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia), Spain.

He received the ‘INISEL Award’ to the best Bachelor Thesis, in 1991, and was distinguished with the ‘Faculty Collaboration Award’ from the ‘Escuela Universitaria de Ingeniería Técnica de Telecomunicación, EUITT’, in 1996. He also received the ‘Technical University of Madrid Medal’ in 2004 for his outstanding work as a Faculty Director. He is an IEEE Member and a SHOT Member.
