Electronics & Communications

Presentation of the Department

 Electronics & Communications Researchers

Following CEIT’s distinctive character, the activities of the Electronics and Communications department combine industry oriented projects with basic research projects. Our goal is to solve current industry challenges by applying state of the art solutions and devising innovative approaches where needed. Basic research projects provide the department with the know-how to face tomorrow’s challenges.

The research activities of the Department can be grouped in to six fields of expertise:

• Industrial and Power Electronics
• Instrumentation techniques
• Analogue & Digital Integrated Circuit Design
• Digital Signal Processing
• Embedded Communication Systems
• Mathematical Principles of Information

The Department has expertise in managing large multidisciplinary projects, where different areas of expertise, either internal or external, need to be combined to address the project requirements.

 

Subdivision

Electronics

The research activity in electronics is focused on: industrial electronic systems design, power control algorithms, energy storage systems, advanced instrumentation techniques, non destructive electromagnetic and magnetic testing for material characterisation, digital signal processing algorithms, digital IC and embedded system design based in heterogeneous platforms (microprocessors, DSP, FPGA, ASIC), IP component development, digital communication systems (OFDM, RFID and UWB) and electronic systems design methodologies. 

Communication

Systems

Our research covers a wide range of activities related to communication systems: RF, analogue/mixed-signal IC design, antennas, information theory, safety critical communication systems, etc. From single modules up to complete embedded communication systems we are experts on integrating HW and SW with commercial off-the-shelf tools.
