December 1993 to August 2005

Head of research team and  projects at the R&D Division (TILAB - formerly CSELT) of Telecom Italia

 

2002-2005  Research Projects Management on the following fields:

 

• Architecture and networking of wireless micro-devices ad hoc networks

• Applications and services of active and passive RFID tag and wireless sensor networks

• Technologies for realization and integration into a mobile telephone of a RF-SIM card based on ZigBee protocol (I invented the Z-SIM concept and guided the team who realized the first prototype)

• Technologies for micro-devices power supply (energy scavenger MEMS, micro fuel cells, carbon nanotubes solar cells)

• Technologies for antennas miniaturization (fractal, printed and chip antennas)

• Optoelectronics generation and detection of millimeter waves for broadband WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) and FWA (Fixed Wireless Access) application.

 

1996-2001 Head of the research unit on Fibers and Passive Optical Components with responsibility on the following research fields:

 

• modeling, characterization, standardization and development of measurement schemes for optical fibers (i.e. chromatic dispersion distribution measurement and analysis of polarization using a POTDR)

• design, modeling, characterization, reliability analysis, standardization, development of measurement schemes for optical passive components (i.e. Fiber Bragg gratings modeling, Chromatic Dispersion Compensators analysis, Optical Couplers reliability study, etc.).

• Specification of fiber and copper components for optical and copper networks (i.e. fibers, couplers, WDMs, attenuators, connectors, joints, cables, etc.)

• Specification and study of innovative technologies for cable installation (no dig techniques, blowing fibers, micro-trenches, etc.)

• Standardization and components characterization for home networking and cabling.

 

 Dec. 1993-1995  Development of  the first Italian prototype of an optical fiber amplifier) for the second TLC window.

 

 

  March 1989 to November 1993

Head of a research group at R&D Division of SIRTI (Milano)

 

with the responsibility of design and development of fiber optic passive components (fusion couplers, optical attenuators, optical isolators) and fiber optic amplifiers for the third telecommunications (TLC) window.

 

I studied, developed the technology (realization, testing and packaging) and put on production the first Italian fusion multimode, singlemode and WDM fiber optic couplers.

 

 

   January 1986 – February 1989

 PhD at University of Pavia - Faculty of Engineering - Optoelectronics Group

 

Researches on: fiber optic sensors (magneto-optical, Gyros,..); optical passive components (all-fiber isolator, fiber couplers, WDMs); fiber optic sensors for space applications (ESA project); pre-amplifier circuits for high frequency photodiodes.

 

  October 1983 to December 1985

Designer of integrated circuits for telecommunication applications (hands free telephone) at SGS Microelectronics (Milano) (now ST Microelectronics)
