LABUST has taken part in many scientific research projects relating to underwater systems and technologies in various roles. This includes numerous international (FP7, H2020, ONRG, INTERREG,...) as well as national projects.
Laboratory for Underwater Systems and Technologies (LABUST), CoE MARBLE, and IEEE OES University of Zagreb Student Branch Chapter invite you to a talk "Localization as a Cross-Domain Enabler of Novel Wireless Applications" held by Filip Lemić, as part of the MARBLE project.
The lecture will take place on Friday, April 11th, 2025 at 12 p.m. in Banjavčićeva 1a (meeting room 3-21/3rd floor). The lecture will be held in person in English language and is estimated to last 60 minutes, including questions.
A summary of the lecture as well as the lecturer's biography can be found below.
SUMMARY:
This talk provides an overview of research efforts focused on localization as an enabler of advanced wireless systems across diverse environments and domains. It begins with early work on benchmarking RF-based indoor localization systems under interference, and then moves into mmWave communication, where localization becomes a feature that enhances system performance in scenarios such as immersive virtual reality. The discussion then shifts to body-centric localization, with a focus on small-scale devices in the gastrointestinal and cardiovascular systems. Next, the talk covers recent efforts demonstrating how small UAV swarms can support tasks like real-time trajectory adaptation and fine-grained 3D scene reconstruction, as well as how 5G-aided UAVs can enable mobile device localization in emergency scenarios. These examples are loosely connected to challenges in maritime robotics and technologies in the final part of the talk.
BIOGRAPHY:
Filip Lemić received his BSc and MSc in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology from the University of Zagreb in 2010 and 2012, respectively. In 2017, he received his PhD from the Telecommunication Networks Group at Technische Universität Berlin, supported by the German Academic Exchange Service. He is currently a senior researcher at the AI-driven Systems Lab of the i2Cat Foundation. He was a Marie Curie postdoctoral researcher at the Internet and Data Lab of the University of Antwerp (2018–22) and at the NaNoNetworking Center of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (2020–22). He was also affiliated as a senior researcher with the imec research institute (2018–22). In 2015 and 2016, he was a visiting researcher at the Qualcomm Ubiquitous SWARM Lab and the Berkeley Wireless Research Center at the University of California, Berkeley, supported by a UC Berkeley stipend for visiting scholars. In 2019, he was a visiting researcher at the Terahertz Wireless Communications Lab of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, supported by the Research Foundation Flanders. He has co-authored more than 60 peer-reviewed scientific papers and has been involved in numerous national and international research projects, including EU MSCA ScaLeITN, EU EVARILOS, EU eWine, NIST PerfLoc, UC Berkeley’s beyond-5G (xG), UNICO5G Open6G, and RETOS Holomit 2.0.
