This presentation shows radio frequency (RF) design solutions for wireless sensor nodes to address sustainability issues in the Internet of Things (IoT), which arise due to the massive deployment of wireless IoT nodes on environmental and economic levels. Engineers can apply these RF design solutions to improve the ultra-low-power operation of IoT nodes, avoid batteries’ eco-toxicity, and decrease maintenance costs due to battery replacement. The solutions offer high integration levels based on system-on-chip and system-in-package concepts in low-cost complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor technologies to limit these nodes’ costs and footprints. In particular, the presentation covers solutions for ultra-low-power wireless communication systems based on high-frequency (HF) and ultra-high frequency (UHF) radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies. The talk offers RF design solutions for HF and UHF RFID systems, revealing how to develop passive miniaturized IoT nodes that operate robustly in harsh application environments.

Abstract of Talk: In recent times, we often hear a call for the governance of AI systems, but what does that really mean? In this talk, I will first adopt a control theory perspective to explain governance that determines the reference input via value alignment, data scientists acting as the controller to meet the values in a machine learning system, and facts captured in transparent documentation as the feedback signal. I will then adopt a nursing theory perspective to explain how the control theory perspective lacks caring and the need for a carative approach that starts with the real-world problem as experienced by the most vulnerable people. I will conclude with an example of a project on using machine learning to evaluate applicants for home solar panel systems in rural India as well as a discussion of governing large language models. Date and Time of Event: 3rd May 2024, 5:30 PM to 6:30 AM IST.
