Luca Poti'
Professore/ssa Ordinario/aBiografia
Luca Potì (M’98) was born in Parma, Italy in 1971. He received the M.S. Degree in electronics engineering from University of Parma, Parma, Italy in 1997. He is full professor at the Universitas Mercatorum, Rome, Italy, Head of the Research Area “High Capacity and Secure Optical Communications” with the Interuniversity National Consortium for Telecommunications (CNIT) at the Photonic Networks and Technologies Nat’l Lab, and external collaborator for Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna, at the Institute of Communication, Information, and Perception Technologies both located in Pisa, Italy. In 1997 he was visiting researcher at the Centre d’Optique, Photonique et Laser, Quebéc, Canada working on recirculating loop experiment for ultra-long-haul transmission. In 1998 he received a Marconi Communication grant on the topic: “WDM communication systems on optical fibre” at the Marconi Laboratory of Parma University working on Nonlinear effects due to fibers and EDFAs in WDM systems. From 1999 to 2000 he worked as a responsible for the optical communications laboratory at the University of Parma, Italy. In 2002 he was visiting researcher at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, Tokyo, Japan, working on ultra-fast phase comparison for 160 GHz signals. In 2005 he started, together with two researchers, PhoTrix S.r.l. an Italian company producing pulsed fibre lasers and ultra-fast subsystems. He has published more than 400 international journal papers, conference papers, and patents. He was Scientific Coordinator for the EU Project ‘Large Optical Bandwidth by amplifier Systems based on Tellurite fibres doped with Rare earths’. He served as Coordinator for several International and Nationale projects. His research interests were mainly focused on ultra-fast communication systems. In 2011 his group demonstrated together with Ericsson the first coherent system working at 448 Gbit/s on an installed commercial apparatus in field trial hosting real traffic. The same in 2012 system has been upgraded to 1Tbit/s super-channel in a flexible optical network. In 2012 he was invested with the career award PWI (Italian Web Award) for the outstanding research results in the previous 10 years. In 2018 he was promoter and responsible for the new technological Incubator “INCUBANDO” established in L’Aquila – Italy. In the latest years he is promoting an innovative approach to physical layer security through scientific activities and research projects.

Le Principali aree di ricerca in ambito accademico riguardano:
The main research areas include optical communication systems with high transmission capacity and communication security. The substantial mission of the area is to provide solutions for the physical layer that allow to maximize data transfer efficiency and, at the same time, increase services for the upper layers. Consequently, as regards communication, the topics include the study and implementation of systems that use advanced modulation formats aimed at increasing transmission capacity and minimizing complexity and power consumption. Such systems are conceived and designed to satisfy the various and variable needs of the different segments of the network that include transport but reach up to access and even interconnection. At the same time, the area studies and develops techniques and technologies to increase the contribution of the physical layer to network security. In particular, the area focuses on the concept of subsystem fingerprinting used for identification but also for authentication and monitoring.
