Description

The Digital Systems Design and Communication Group (DSDC) is a consolidated research group attached to the Escola Técnica Superior d'Enginyería of the Universitat de València since 1996. It is currently made up of four teachers and researchers with doctorates and four pre-doctoral researchers. It has two 100m2 laboratories fully equipped for the design and development of electronic demonstrators.

He has extensive scientific experience, with more than 70 articles in high-impact international journals and more than 90 participations in scientific congresses. It also has an extensive track record in the development of research projects, having participated in more than 15 projects funded by public calls for proposals, and has a long tradition in technology transfer, having collaborated as a scientific partner in matters related to electronics, computing and telecommunications through more than 30 contracts and agreements with major players in different sectors and business areas. 

Areas of research:

  1. Customised electronic design (hardware and firmware). Reconfigurable Logic (CPLDs, FPGAs, PSoC). Microcontrollers (AVR, ARM, 8051, etc.). RTOS.
  2. Sensor networks (WSN). Wireless communications technologies (Wifi, Zigbee, CyFi, Bluetooth, Sigfox LoRA, etc.)
  3. Applications for mobile devices (IOS, Android)
  4. High-speed electronic design (Altium, etc.).
  5. Internet of Things (IoT). Motes. Concentrators. Embedded electronic developments, with special emphasis on aspects such as low power consumption, energy harvesting and miniaturisation.
  6. Project management. Development of pre-commercial prototypes, including cost analysis and CE pre-certification.

Sectors of application:

  1. Energy (smartgrids, smartmetering, renewables).
  2. Environment (climate change, smartcities, smarthome and building automation).
  3. Industry (process analytical technologies - PAT).
  4. Biomedical engineering (implantable devices, nuclear medicine PET).
  5. High-energy physics detectors (ATLAS-CERN).
  6. Consumer Electronics (wereables).

Collaborating organisations, associations and foundations in the areas of interest (excluding RTD, LI, SME):

Climate-KIC. European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). Spanish Technological Platform for Energy Efficiency. Spanish Geothermal Technology Platform The Valencian Association of Energy Sector Companies (AVAESEN). InnDEA Foundation (Valencia City Hall). Spanish Home Automation Association (CEDOM). Multisectoral Association of Electronics, Information and Communication Technologies, Telecommunications and Digital Content Companies (AMETIC). Spanish Association for the Internationalisation and Innovation of Spanish Electronics Companies (SECARTYS). Building Institute of Valencia (IVE). Valencian Association of Habitat Technologies (AVATHA). Professional bodies and associations (COIT, COITT, FENITEL, FENIE). TECMA-RED communication group.

Goals CT
  • Investigate the electronic design of digital devices and systems based on reconfigurable logic and microcontrollers. Develop models and algorithms for real-time operating systems suitable for embedded applications.
  • Advancing in the integration of technologies for new applications within the concept of the Internet of Things: interoperability of sensor networks, wireless communications, multi-platform development of applications for mobile devices.
  • Investigate the design of information and communication systems that integrate quantity and diversity of data and allow their storage and further processing. In particular, take advantage of cloud technologies to promote the scalability, availability, manageability and energy efficiency of systems.
  • Propose electronic design models and processes for high performance, with special emphasis on aspects such as low power consumption, energy harvesting and miniaturisation. Create methodologies for the rapid development of low-cost electronic prototypes.
  • Understand the physical fundamentals of Electromagnetic Compatibility, and to apply them both to the development of new products and to standardisation in the field of communications and power distribution networks.
  • Apply the latest advances in Electronics Technology to the design and development of high performance digital and communications modules for use in High Energy Physics and other areas of science.
