Our research topics
The long term objective of the department is the realization of the IMMI project (Interpretation by Measuring, Modelling and Identification), since 1989. Besides this main project, which covers a broad spectrum of several related activities, also some other independent research topics are at stake.
Carrier aggregation intermodulation distortions in Advanced Systems
Achieving greater throughput requires increasing bandwidth. However, due to frequency’s scarcity, the necessary bandwidth may not be available in one contiguous band. LTE Advanced use multiple bands for one user: that is carrier aggregation [1]. However power amplifier’s efficiency is only...
Linear parameter-varying modeling and decentralized fault diagnosis for large sets of interacting subsystem
Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) systems aim at the early detection and localization of faults. They are the key for the establishment of condition-based maintenance on industrial processes, which allows for cost reduction, and a safer and more reliable operation. The research on FDI has been...
