Research activities

Research topics

Our research activities revolve around the design, the analysis and modelling of computer communication protocols. More specifically,

• Networked embedded systems, Internet of Things (IoT)
  • WPANs (IEEE 802.15.4) : low-power MAC protocols (ContikiMAC, TSCH), routing (AODV, RPL)
  • LPWANs (LoRa/LoRAWAN)
  • Indoor localization, based on Ultrawide Band (UWB)
  • Radio frequency fingerprinting identification
  • Multi-technology connectivity (WiFi / LoRa / NB-IoT / LTE-M)
• Internet routing architecture and Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
  • Large network simulation and emulation: c-bgp
  • Network topology modelling and generation: IGen, bipartite graphs
