ODIN & CWTe PhD Lunch Lecture
March 25 @ 12:40 - 13:20
Do you want to learn more about what research is being done at the TU/e?
On Tuesday the 25th of March, Michiel Wopereis (PHI) and Astrid Barreiro Berrio (SPS) will present their PhD projects during an ODIN lunch lecture!
The project of Michiel: LiDAR sensing systems are pivotal in applications such as self-driving cars, metrology, and optical communications. The performance of these systems depends highly on the precision and accuracy of beam steering in free space. Traditional mechanical LiDAR systems utilize moving parts to steer the beam, often reducing robustness, speed, and accuracy. Our project aims to steer the beam in free space solely using the interference of light. This is known as an Optical Phased Array (OPA).
The project of Astrid: Modern communication depends on high-speed, reliable networks, and optical fiber technology forms the backbone of this system. Whether connecting cities, linking wireless base stations, or enabling long-distance communication, optical fibers ensure the rapid and efficient transfer of information. To keep up with growing digital demands, scientists are continuously working to optimize fiber-optic networks. Her PhD research tackled key challenges in fiber modeling, introducing innovative approaches to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the first-order regular perturbation approximation (FRP) model. Her work enhances fiber-optic modeling, making it more practical and scalable for future communication networks.
The lunch lecture will take place on March 25th at 12:40 to 13:20, the location is Colloquium 6 in Flux
