The Italy Research Ministry has published yesterday the result of the selection process for the PRIN2022 national research funds (link to the MIUR web page): we are very happy that our project proposal titled “SURENET” (Surveillance of the URban Environment exploiting deployed optical NETworks) was approved! Prof. Roberto Gaudino will be the project Coordinator.

We are eager to start working on it together with our colleagues at Politecnico di Milano!

A new paper of ours was published today in IEEE Photonic Journal: it proposes a novel method for fast alarm generation in case of anomalous events (like large rockfalls or debris flows) in the alpine environment, using polarization-based fiber sensing.

A new paper of ours was published today in IEEE/OPTICA Journal of Lightwave Technology: it proposes a computationally very efficient semi-analytical model to predict the performance of ultra-high speed #fiber #coherent transmission systems when polarization dependent loss and bandwidth limitations are particularly relevant.

Title:  An Analytical Model for Coherent Transmission Performance Estimation after Generic Jones Matrices

Authors: Giuseppe Rizzelli, Pablo Torres-Ferrera, and Roberto Gaudino,  

A new paper of ours was published today in Optics Express (OPTICA Journal) on a possible solution for  future optical access network (for FTTH and Fronthauling on PON above 50 Gbit/s per lambda and in particular on  200G PON). This is another paper from the research group of mine that focuses on physical layer solutions for Passive Optical Networks.

Title:  "Analysis and experiments on C band 200G coherent PON based on Alamouti polarization-insensitive receivers"

We have an open PhD position available at Politecnico di Torino, in the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Doctoral Network “EWOC” (Enabling Virtualized Wireless and Optical Coexistence for 5G and Beyond). EWOC unites world-class academic excellence in optical and wireless convergence for Beyond 5G networks.

The PhD working with me in POLITO will cooperate with a network of 10 other EWOC Doctoral PhD Candidates, as a part of an interdisciplinary and international network.
