About IEB

We are a group of professors at the Electronic Engineering Department at the UPC that does research mainly in Biomedical Engineering and ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC).

Our teaching activities are focused on Instrumentation, Bioengineering and EMC in various degrees at different schools in the UPC:

• Telecommunications Engineering and Master of Electronic Engineering at the School of Telecommunications Engineering of Barcelona
• Bachelor on Biomedical Engineering  at the School of Technical Engineering of Barcelona
• Master on Biomedical Engineering at the School of Industrial Engineering of Barcelona

Objectives

Our aim is to design new equipment, measurement methods and instrumentation systems in the fields of ATE, EMC, medicine and biotechnology. We are interested especially in instrumentation for medical diagnosis, biotechnological processes and electromagnetic field measurements in the near-field region and automotive applications

Areas of expertise

Hardware and software design of measurement systems based on electrical impedance, ultrasound or infrared radiation. Analog and digital signal processing applied to biomedical signals. Low-noise electronic design and electromagnetic compatibility

Main research areas

Our research is organized in three interdependent groups:

• Design of medical equipment and systems
• Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy and Tomography
• Electromagnetic Compatibility and Safety
