Two research seminars by Prof Peter and Prof Sabah from Kiel University
Talkative Power Conversion -- A Simultaneous Information and Power Transfer Technique where Communication Engineering meets Power Electronics
Abstract: Talkative Power Conversion (TPC) is a switching ripple communication technique in which data modulation is integrated into switched-mode power converters, resulting in simultaneous information transmission and power conversion. Over the past decade, an increasing number of research papers have been published, mostly in the power electronics community, covering theoretical as well as practical aspects of this emerging topic. In this presentation, the basic principles of TPC are explored from the viewpoints of power electronics and digital communications, respectively. Then, potential grid-based as well as wireless applications are outlined. Finally, a roadmap for future research on TPC is suggested.
Bio: Peter Adam Hoeher (F' 14) received the Dipl.Ing. (M.Sc.) degree in electrical engineering from RWTH Aachen University, Aachen, Germany, in 1986, and the Dr.Ing. (Ph.D.) degree in electrical engineering from the University of Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern, Germany, in 1990. From 1986 to 1998, he was with the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany. From 1991 to 1992, he was on leave at AT&T Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, NJ. In 1998, he joined the University of Kiel, Germany, where he is a Full Professor of electrical and information engineering. His research interests are in the general area of communication theory and applied information theory with applications in wireless radio communications, optical wireless communications, underwater communications, and simultaneous wireless information and power transfer. His current focus is on digital communication in the area of power electronics. He has been supervising over 55/170/25 bachelor/master/PhD students as the first superisor and has authored or coauthored about 350 peer-reviewed journal and conference papers, wrote two textbooks, and holds about 20 patents. Since 2014, he has been a Fellow of the IEEE.
Artificial Intelligence Meets Signal Processing in the Field of Underwater Communication and Detection
Abstract: After an introduction to underwater applications, the difficulties of acoustic underwater communication and detection will be introduced. On the basis of selected projects from our working group, results on autonomous underwater vehicles and automatic fish monitoring systems will be discussed. Artificial intelligence in signal processing is the key to success in this challenging environment.
Bio: Sabah Badri-Hoeher received the Master degree in physics from the University of Casablanca, Morocco, in 1991, the Dipl.-Ing. (M.Sc.) degree in electrical engineering from the University of Paderborn, Germany, in 1996, and the Dr.-Ing. (Ph.D.) degree in electrical engineering from the University of Erlangen, Germany, in 2001. She has been several years with the Fraunhofer Institute of Integrated Circuits in Erlangen, Germany, and the Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel. Since 2009 she is a Full Professor in the Faculty of Computer Sciences and Electrical Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences in Kiel, Germany, and an Adjunct Professor with the Christian Albrechts University of Kiel. Her research interests include the general area of signal processing and communication techniques with focus on underwater communication, localization, and navigation, as well as image processing.
