ABSTRACT AQ:8 A large number of vision sensors has been proposed for enabling self-driving vehicles to
perceive their surroundings. Among them, Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) presents the unique
advantage of acquiring a high resolution 3D representation of the vehicle surroundings, in the form of point
clouds, which enables accurate 3D object detection. The success of the fi rst (and current) generation LiDARs
has motivated the development of a second generation of this sensor, now based on coherent detection.
Second generation LiDARs thus enable not only estimating radial distance, but also radial velocity for each
point of the point cloud. The objective of this work is to investigate which benefi ts can be obtained by
considering such an additional information – radial velocity – in 3D object detection. Results show that
considering object velocity is particularly helpful in objects represented by a small number of points.,

TRANSCEIVER SYSTEM FOR AUDIO ALARMING USING RADIO FM STATIONS,
Emergency alert systems is required in a modern society. It is composed by warning messages delivered to the nation public in consequence of imminent threats to the public safety. An emergency alert message system over mobile phones is already implemented in Portugal. In this paper, we propose an innovative voice-based emergency alert system. Our solution makes use of local radio stations to deliver the voice alert messages to the vehicle driver.,

ANRW.PT 2020 Prize: Best Technical Paper and IETF Relevance Mention,
The Annual ISOC.PT ANR Workshop and Prize is an initiative of the Portuguese Chapter of the Internet Society (ISOC.PT) that aims to promote applied research in computer networks and Internet in Portugal, by distinguishing applied research work carried out in Portugal by advanced students or other members of the R&D community, from Portuguese Universities, Research Centers or Industrial R&D Labs.
This work describes an interesting proposal for a solution that can integrate the Captive Portal paradigm, which facilitates enrolment of new network subscribers, with the standard practices of security for 802.11 networks. The contribution relies on a new EAP-compliant protocol (Extended
Authentication Protocol for Secure Hotspots, EAP-SH) that bridges both approaches, providing a solution for a flexible and effective
authentication framework.,

IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society 2019 Contest Student 2nd Place Award,
Goal: Propose a setup that characterizes/demonstrates the properties of an antenna system and provide educational material to explain these properties.
Specifications
The setup must be able to measure/demonstrate some properties of an antenna system. These properties include (but are not limited to) impedance, efficiency, frequency of operation, bandwidth, gain, polarization, beam width, RCS, MIMO performance…
The results must be displayed in real time.
The setup and procedure must be easy to understand for non-specialists.
The setup must be easy to reproduce in a classroom.
The setup must be designed using the non-dedicated/non-specialized equipment. The teams are encouraged to use devices as mobile phones, small drones, or any commercially available device that is NOT specifically intended for antenna/RF testing.
The teams have to explain the theory behind their demonstration setup in a simple way (so that it can be understood by non-engineers.)
Step-by-step instructions to allow reproducing the system for anyone who wants to use it for teaching purposes have to be provided.
Merit will be assigned to designs based on the following criteria, equally weighted:
- Creativity and justification of the design;
- Capability of the system to show the properties of the system under test;
- Use of non-standard equipment and DIY strategies;
- Quality of the experimental model and results;
- Educational value and clarity of the DIY/demonstration instructions.
Existing licensed software at the university (e.g., electromagnetic simulation software) or free software may be used. Any other commercial software used for the project should be included in the budget. The total production cost for the entire system must be less than US$1,500.,
