Workshops and Demos
As part of UCET 2020, there will be workshops and live demos of technologies taking place the details of which can be found below:
Workshop on Superconducting Terahertz Device
The Superconducting Terahertz Device 2020 (STD20) workshop brings together the leading scientists in high-Tc superconductivity to discuss the latest advances in superconducting terahertz (THz) components and systems based on intrinsic Josephson junctions, to help shape the future of such THz devices in spectroscopy, imaging, tomography, communication and quantum technology.
Topics

5G Testbed
The Glasgow 5G testbed team will present an overview of the 5G testbed along with its technical specifications. The different network architectures and combinations for various use cases will be explored. The team will then showcase the indoor testbed that operates on OpenAirInterface5G distribution on x86 based Linux and USRPs. Use cases that utilize this testbed will then be demonstrated including Pop Up Network and a Multi-Hop Emergency Network.
Connected Robot in 5G Era
In this session, we will first introduce our 5G robotic testbed at Glasgow university. Then, we will show the live demo of remote operation between the UK and China. Finally, the conference attendees would be able to control our robotic arm using their own cellphone.
Note: An application needs to be installed on the smartphone to participate in this demo.
