Doctoral Candidate

Arturo Morales Bugueño

RESEARCH PROFILE

Arturo Morales Bugueño is a Ph.D. candidate in the Control Systems Technology (CST) group at Eindhoven University of Technology (ϸ) working in the Optomechatronics Department at TNO.

His doctoral research focuses on free-space optical (FSO) communication systems within the FOCAL MSCA Doctoral Network. Specifically, his work is centered on the application of techniques from control systems theory, such as adaptive control, system identification, and model predictive control (MPC) for the improvement of the robustness and reliability of FSO links, which are highly dynamic and time-varying due to factors such as pointing errors and atmospheric effects (turbulence and attenuation).

ACADEMIC BACKGROUND

Arturo Morales Bugueño received his B.Sc., “Ingeniero Civil”, and M.Sc. degrees in Electronics Engineering from Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María (UTFSM), Chile, graduating with highest academic distinction and ranking first in his cohort.

During his M.Sc. studies, he worked on a project supported by the National Institute of Health (US) focused on the estimation of glottal airflow using a non-invasive neck surface accelerometer for the assessment of voice disorders, applying techniques from control systems theory.

After graduation, he worked for 4 years as an Advanced Process Control (APC) Engineer at Honeywell, Chile, where he contributed to the implementation, support, and improvement of APC applications for large-scale mining processes of major industry clients such as Codelco, Gold Fields, and BHP.
