<p><b>Didier Le Ruyet</b> received his Eng. Degree and his Ph. D. degree from Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (CNAM) in 1994 and 2001 respectively.  In 2009, he received the “Habilitation à diriger des recherches” from Paris XIII University. He is full professor at CNAM since 2010 and deputy director of the center for research in Computer Science and Telecommunications (CEDRIC). He has published about 100 papers in refereed journals and conference proceedings. His main research and teaching activities lie in the areas of digital communication, wireless communication and signal processing including channel coding and multi-antenna transmission.</p> <p><b>Mylène Pischella</b> received her engineering degree and her phD in electronics and telecommunications from Télécom ParisTech. She is an associate professor at  Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers (CNAM), where she is responsible of courses on digital communications, wireless communications and information theory.</p>
