| Brief description of the Centre – Research Group: |
GIRA, Radio Engineering Research Group is part of the Centro de Electrónica Industrial (www.cei.upm.es) of the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. The GIRA is located in the Campus Sur of the University, in the ETS de Ingeniería y Sistemas de Telecomunicación. The GIRA is composed by experimented and skilled professors and researchers whose activity focuses on:

| Project description: |
| Deployment of industrial wireless sensor networks due to their own nature (devices with resource constraints: processing, range, energy).In an industrial environment the replacement of batteries could become cumbersome. Then, to prevent the frequent replacement of batteries energy efficient techniques must be used, i.e., wake-up and wake-down efficient capabilities to save batteries and the use of some energy harvesting technologies (research on resource and energy management).
Analysis and development of new techniques to improve MIMO performance focusing on wideband and multi-user communications. Wideband communications are affected by the channel frequency response (impulse response) which on one hand affects different frequencies with distinct gains and, on the other hand, it produces intersymbol interferences due to the time-domain channel response. To improve the user experience of interactive video applications on fixed and mobile networks, with particular applicability to leisure industry (virtualized games, multiplayer online games) but also in applications where a smooth user experience is expected. |
