2 Networking specialization Prof. F. Granelli Wireless networks: Architecture, protocols and performance: WiFi (single hop / multi hop) WiMAX 3G LTE Cross-layer design Heterogeneous networking Green ICT and ICT4Green: Green wireless networks Smart Grid communications

3 Networking specialization Prof. F. Granelli Wired networks: Networks and protocols: TCP over wireless TCP over high speed networks WAN optimization Software Defined Networking Cloud Computing and Networking: Green cloud computing Architecture optimization

4 Networks and TLC Systems Design (B.Sc.) Prof. F. Granelli, Prof. C. Sacchi What you learn: Physical/MAC layer design in today s networks: Spread Spectrum and Multicarrier transmission (OFDM) Multiple access techniques in wireless Wireless standards and mobility (GSM, WiFi, WiMax) Project-oriented course for a real hands-on experience (software defined radio, Layer2 and Layer3 network design) Partnership with Trentino Networks

5 Sample B.Sc. Theses Emphasis on gaining practical knowledge and competences Sometimes possible as an external stage E.g.: Performance analysis of LTE and WiFi for Ultra Light Vehicles communications Development of a power consumption meter for Android devices Performance assessment of TCP variants using network simulators

6 Towards the M.Sc. degree Master degree in Telecommunications Engineering Specialization on Networking Double degree w/ Scuola Superiore Pisa S.Anna Focus on optical/wireless networks Double degree with EIT Master school Internet Technology and Architecture Technical Major

7 Network Modeling and Design Prof. F. Granelli What you learn: To design protocols and networks: TCP over wireless / high speed networks WAN optimization To dimension and analyze networks To design the networks of the future: Cognitive networks Green Internet A research vision on hot/ emerging topics Green wireless networking

8 Wireless Networks Prof. I. Chlamtac What you learn: Everything about wireless networks: Satellite networks Lightweight wireless communications Cellular networks (2G/3G/LTE) Future technologies included: Cooperative networks Cognitive radios Delay tolerant networks Hands-on project on wireless networking
