Optical & Wireless Laboratory (OWL)

Descripción

Laboratorio dedicado al estudio de las telecomunicaciones, en particular aquellas tecnologías asociadas a las redes de acceso de banda ancha. En específico estamos estudiando protocolos de transporte y protocolos de control de acceso (MAC) para redes que abarcan distancias de largo recorrido (long-haul) hasta redes locales personales inalámbricas (WPAN). Un tema de particular interés son las aplicaciones médicas que estas redes pueden tener (e-Health).
