We report on the first real-time experiments with distributed MIMO and multiple users for LiFi. MIMO mode switching and angular diversity are beneficial for robust-ness. Multiuser multiplexing helps in scenarios where users have complementary...

This  paper  shows  the  feasibility  of  a  networked LiFi  system  using  a  distributed  multiple-input  multiple-output(MIMO)  link  for  optical ...

We propose a novel Deep Convolutional Neural Network formulation for network-wide QoT classification tasks and show its effectiveness for networks with significant topological differences. Our formulation achieves ~99% accuracy on large and...

We demonstrate the development of a QoT classifier over an autonomous machine-learning pipeline, the trading of the classifier over a federated marketplace, and eventually its deployment in the customer’s network as a cloud-native...

We report the automated deployment of 5G services across a latency-aware, semi-disaggregated, and virtualized metro network. We summarize the key findings in a detailed analysis of end-to-end latency, ! service setup time, and soft-failure...

We demonstrate an LED-based optical wireless link for fixed wireless access applications, at data rates of 1.5 Gbit/s over 50 m. The design is robust against vibration and the infrastructure module can be deployed, e.g., at a lamppost with no...

Safe operation of driver assistance systems remains a challenge, especially at higher speeds. It requires sensor technology that is capable of detecting surrounding conditions even at large distances. LiDAR technology is a cornerstone of this...

In this paper, we introduce and validate two different hyperspectral intraoperative imaging setups and their use for the analysis of optical tissue properties. First, we present an improved multispectral filter-wheel setup integrated into a fully...

The task of detecting morphed face images has becomehighly relevant in recent years to ensure the security of automaticverification systems based on facial images, e.g.automated border control gates. Detection methods basedon Deep Neural Networks...

Neural Network Coding and Representation (NNR) is the first international standard for efficient compression of neural networks. The NNR standard contains quantization and an arithmetic coding scheme as core encoding and decoding technologies, as...

In this book chapter we review photoconductive (PC) terahertz (THz) sources in the 1550-nm region. We contrast the two most common types of devices in the context of the two common implementations as PC switches and photomixers. We also...

Integration of a tunable DBR laser with an optical isolator in a polymer platform achieves 38 dB isolation over 17 nm tuning range and 5.6 mW output power. This is the first demonstrated integration of a DBR laser together with an optical...

The continued advancement in user interfaces comes to the era of virtual reality that requires a better understanding of how users will interact with 3D buttons in mid-air. Although virtual reality owns high levels of expressiveness and...

In this joint work with the University of Heidelberg, German Cancer Research Center, University Hospital of Erlangen we showed that multimodal quantitative MR enabled excellent differentiation of a wide spectrum of subcortical nuclei with...
