Broadly speaking, the aim of the Communications Technologies Division (CTD) research is to address the most endeavoring challenges that 5G and future communications technologies will face: those of energy and bandwidth efficiency. The focus of CTD research is on component (subsystem) level and also on PHY and MAC layers. CTD research has a strong experimental emphasis, achieved through the use of demonstrators and the two CTD testbeds:
- GEDOMIS®: Testbed to develop and validate the PHY-layer of modern wireless communication systems covering the prototyping and verification requirements of advanced solutions
- IoTWorld®: End-to-End testbed for the Internet of Things, whose main focus is on wireless communications systems and data analytics.
CTD has four departments:
- Microwave Systems and Nanotechnology (MSN)
- Physical-layer Implementation of High Performance Communication Systems (PHYCOM)
- Machine to Machine Communications (M2M)
- Smart Energy Efficient Communication Technologies (SMARTECH)
