Research Topic A
While modern wireless communication systems can adequately support the majority of current digital applications, they often fall short when considering extreme environments, i.e., scenarios with harsh propagation conditions (e.g., ports, mines, extra-terrestrial lands), or requiring extremely low environmental impact (e.g., natural reserves, drinkable water sources, fragile natural ecosystems), or having unusual performance requirements (energetic self-sustainability, ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability). Such scenarios require disruptive approaches that go beyond simple linear improvements of what already exists. The overall objective of this project is to develop telecommunication and networking technologies, and suitable machine learning algorithms, to support mission-critical applications in such extreme environments.
