Team Members Research Projects

Our Team members during their research activities attracted more than 5.5 million EUR in public and private funding for R&D projects. Also, the team members started start-ups or spin-offs that they managed, sold or on which they failed. 

The team has more than 50 years cumulated experience in R&D projects, either as project coordinators or as team members managing the technical implementation. 

Ongoing R&D projects

The research team is involved in the following R&D funded projects:
  1.

  4. Crearea de coduri de imprastiere complexe cu corelatie mica, Proiect AOSR contract Nr 21 din 14.4.2022, 2022-2023

Private funded projects

The lab team implemented 3  private funded R&D projects (aprox 35000 EUR without VAT) with  several components

  1. 5G and LoRa R&D development
    • For this project the lab team implemented several end-to-end 5G and LoRa systems for a private company
  2. Tech Transfer evaluation and recommendations
    • For  this project the lab team assessed the tech transfer capabilities of the company and proposed several measures through which the tech transfer process to be more straight forward. 
  3. Testing 5G off-the shelf devices
    • For this task the team developed and implemented a test-bed in a home-like environment, to be used to test the capacity of the devices in a real environment. Using the designed environment several capacity/traffic/bandwidth tests were performed
  4. Testing LTE-m network and LTE-m network parameters for IoT devices
    • For this task the team performed several test (mobility/static/power saving) to demonstrate what are the optimal parameters to be set on an IoT device in order to be optimized for the network.

The project current results were used by the industry partner to launch new products.
