Work description
1. Design of a hybrid RF and optical low-power node for IoT applications. 2. Specification of the node to be implemented, including the communication system switching functionality. 3. Design of the RF electronic component of the system based on off-the-shelf components. 4. Design of the optical component of the system, including the optical transceiver. 5. Preparation of an experimental assembly to support the IoT node characterisation. 6. Production and characterisation of each component of the system and its functionality. 7. Experimental validation of the IoT node in a typical application scenario. 8. Develop a reconfigurable network architecture base. 9. Prepare the submission of a scientific article. 10. Write the report on the scholarship activities.
