5G & 6G: the antennas that shape networks

/in ,

In a context of constantly growing needs for data transmission, 5G and 6G networks must comply with increasingly strict technical obligations in terms of flexibility, miniaturization, and energy optimization. Solutions explored by researchers include optimal management of radiation patterns and the development of concrete applications for millimeter wave frequencies. Two projects, YACARI and PIIEC ME/CT, are tackling the technical obstacles to these approaches by combining different antenna technologies.

Slicing: a MUST for multisectoral communication

/in ,

In emergency situations such as a major car crash, proper coordination between the emergency, medical and transport services is vital. Yet these different operators often use compartmentalized communication services which hinder their performance. The NF-MUST project aims to create a dynamic, shared and flexible network architecture to enable seamless communication. It relies on slicing techniques and virtualized networks to meet the demands of different sectors.

From Fossil to Flexible: Joulzen Gives Old Oil Tanks a Future

/in , ,

The countdown has started: by 2035, oil heating systems will be banned across many European countries. But what happens to the tanks left behind? In Austria, a team of young engineers saw this constraint as a resource. Their start-up incubated in TU Wien, Joulzen, wants to turn these dormant giants into heat storage systems—and maybe even into players in the European energy grid.

Boosting tomorrow’s IoT networks

/in ,

The goal of the FITNESS project is to develop networks capable of adapting to the needs of massive IoT, industrial IoT and connected transport solutions. The project is supported by the expertise of several IMT schools to address the challenges that arise from the densification of connected objects, more robust applications, energy management and various protocols, and to optimize the performance of networks in real time.

When assembly lines become circular

/in , ,

The recycling market is expanding, even to assembly plants! Using a software ecosystem, the European ALICIA project aims to promote the circulation of production resources. Scientists from IMT Atlantique involved in the project are working to develop a platform to optimize production lines, by minimizing machine changeovers and promoting the use of second-hand resources.

Mental disorders: when data helps save lives

/in ,

For several years now, a team from IMT Atlantique has been working in cooperation with doctors from Brest University Hospital and a psychologist from Fondation Bon Sauveur in Bégard to improve early detection of mental disorders such as schizophrenia and to reduce suicidal relapses. The success of this approach based on digital tools lies in the robustness of the analysis and decision models the scientists have developed. It is also dependent on the quality of the health data, which must be correctly recorded by hospital staff.

What is concentrated solar power ?

/in , ,

Concentrated solar power concentrates the sun’s rays to generate heat and electricity. It differs from photovoltaic solar production and therefore offers a new mode of energy production. Ugo Pelay, research professor at IMT Nord Europe, explains the principles behind this system.

Will buildings soon achieve self-awareness?

/in , ,

The SUST(AI)N project aims to create connected and aware buildings with a focus on human needs. The technological blocks for this system include ubiquitous and invisible sensors powered by radio frequency signals. A Telecom SudParis team has been working on this new development for over a year.

BAYFLEX: green electronics for health

/in , , ,

The European BAYFLEX project aims to develop flexible, intelligent sensors capable of continuously collecting and processing biological signals before their on-chip classification. This ambitious project adds value by using “green” organic technologies, which require less energy to manufacture and use.
