Biography

Lazo M. Manojlović, PhD, is currently with the Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Society of the Republic of Serbia, Belgrade, as a Special Adviser to the Minister. He is also with Zrenjanin Technical College, Serbia, as Professor. His experience and research interests include interferometry, optical sensing systems, and laser rangefinders. His extensive experience includes roles with Integrated Microsystems Austria GmbH, Wiener Neustadt, Austria, where he was engaged in research on the development of different types of fiber-optic sensors; the Vienna University of Technology, Austria, where he performed research on the development of high-precision piezoactuator-based positioning systems; Pupin Telecom DATACOM, Belgrade, Serbia, where he was involved in designing, installing, and commissioning of the first hybrid fiber coaxial network for the cable distribution systems in Belgrade; the Military Institute of Technology, Belgrade, Serbia, where he worked on designing and testing several types of ultra-low noise wideband photodiode preamplifiers for quadrant photodetector and for tracking electronics circuits for analog signal processing in pulsed-laser tracking systems for laser guidance missiles; and the Institute Mihailo Pupin, Belgrade, Serbia, as a part of his extended studies, where he was engaged in research on the development of applicative software for text-to-speech synthesis of Serbian spoken language in the C programming language based on diphone concatenation.
