ABSTRACT: High data-rate communication systems require the transmission of radio frequency (RF) signals which are modulated in both amplitude and phase, presenting peak power envelope swings exceeding ten times their average power levels. In wireless communication systems, it is a significant challenge to transmit high peak-to-average-power-ratio signals whilst maintaining a high degree of energy efficiency. However, [...]

ABSTRACT: Communication at mmWave frequencies will play a key role in next generation 5G cellular networks. However, mobile scenarios are the most challenging for mmWave cellular systems, due to the high propagation loss, the relatively small coverage area of individual cells, and rapid channel dynamics caused by blockage events. In this talk, Michele Polese will [...]

ABSTRACT: I-CUBE project  has been funded by Inmarsat UK to analyze and evaluate the viability of using Ultra-Narrow-Band (UNB) systems in the return link of LEO constellations. This study has also included the characterization of the satellite channel, the description of the physical layer and the access scheme of a UNB communication system and the [...]
