This web page presents research issues addressing the problem of distributed channel coding of correlated binary sources and a novel iterative joint channel decoding without communication of any side information between the involved communications nodes. The main application of the discussed results is in connection with distributed coding in sensor networks constituted by a multitude of communicating nodes with limited power capabilities.

This web page presents research papers addressing cross-layer PHY-MAC layer techniques and IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function modelling under real transmission conditions and general traffic.

This web page describes the problem of quantum communication in atmosphere, and in particular the problem of quantum communication in atmosphere and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). The activity performed by the research on this topic team are described, focused in particular on modeling and analysis of the quantum channel, together with some preliminary simulations and experimental results, aiming at a more comprehensive and general solution to the described problems.

This web page presents the research activities on the design of digital filter for decimation of Sigma-Delta A/D converters and Nyquist-Pulse shaping filtering applications.

Several novel decimation filtering schemes tailored to the design of Sigma-Delta A/D converters are presented in some papers published in technical journals.
