- Radio sensing, communication, and autonomous navigation of a dynamic network of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)

- THz Communications and Their Application to Industrial Cyber-Physical-Systems

- Software-Defined Networking, Service Function Chaining and the Intent-based Approach

- Standards for Network Function Virtualization and Multi-access Edge Computing

- Energy and Delay Efficient Techniques for Fog and Mobile Edge Computing in B5G Scenarios

- Simulation and optimization of 5G transport networks for ultra-reliable scenarios

- Brain-based communications

- IoT Solutions for Independent Elderly: a Microwave System for Tracking People Occupancy at Home

- Eco-compatible Wireless Sensing solutions

- Design and Control of Advanced Antenna Arrays for Energy-aware Wireless Power Transfer

Testi/Bibliografia

Papers on the topic of the seminar distributed in advance. Students are required to read the assigned papers before the seminar and prepare questions.
