Within its Mission 5 of RESTART– Education & Training (Spoke 3 – Wireless Networks and Technologies), Politecnico di Milano launches the first edition of the Higher Education Course “ACCELERATING NEW TECHNOLOGIES RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT WITH SOFTWARE DEFINED RADIOS”.

The course aims to train technical figures on the practical and theoretical aspects inherent to communication and sensing systems based on the use of Software Defined Radio (SDR).

The main components of a radio frequency communication system will be presented and compared with the SDR-based architecture. The students will tackle the implementation of communication systems using MATLAB or GNURadio, going into detail of the processing chains necessary to establish a physical link. Subsequently, sensing techniques based on SDRs that can be used to identify anomalies, locate terminals, or, more generally, reconstruct the propagation environment will be introduced. Once the physical layer has been addressed, the teaching will move on to the higher layers, addressing issues of access and creation/management of 5G private networks based on Open-RAN architecture.

At the end of the course the students will be able to completely exploit SDR platforms and integrate them in applications inherent to the telecommunications world and/or sensing of physical quantities using radiofrequency signals.
