Engineering Electromagnetics

This research line is organized in two research groups operating in the field of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and wireless systems (WS), respectively. The EMC Group activity is mainly focused on: (a) theoretical work aimed at the development of EMC prediction models; (b) investigation and design of innovative experimental procedures and optimized setups for EMC assessment at the system and/or unit level. Group expertise covers radiated/conducted immunity, emissions and crosstalk, and exploits know-how on distributed-parameter circuit modeling, statistical techniques for EMC, and computational electromagnetics. The WS Group activity is mainly focused on the analysis, optimization and design of wireless systems for different kinds of real-life possible applications, from satellite communications to wireless sensor networks for environmental monitoring. Specific attention is devoted to both the hardware design aspects, mainly focused on the antenna and RF system design, and the software, mainly focused to the analysis of optimization strategies for routing, data collection and data processing.
