Giuseppe Rizzelli Martella

Giuseppe Rizzelli Martella is a Lecturer at the School of Electronics and Telecommunications, Polytechnic University of Turin, affiliated with the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications (DET). He is a member of the Interdepartmental Center Photonext - PoliTo Interdepartmental Center on Applied Photonics and leads the Photonext: Hands-on course on Photonics for Fiber Transmission as a main teacher for multiple academic years. His role spans both Electronic Engineering and Communications Engineering programs, with contributions to courses like Digital Transmission, Signal and Communication Theory, and Optical Fiber Communications.

• Education: Not explicitly detailed in the provided text.

Rizzelli Martella’s research focuses on Optical Communication Systems, with a strong emphasis on Coherent Metro Networks, Passive Optical Networks (PON), and Filtering Impact Analysis. His work explores network convergence, system design for ultra-high bitrates, and signal processing in photonic systems.

Recent publications highlight advancements in coherent digital subcarriers, network architectures for converged metro+PON systems, and filtering impact estimation models. These studies are published in venues like Optical Fiber Communications Conference (OFC), International Conference on Optical Network Design and Modeling (ONDM), and the JOURNAL OF OPTICAL COMMUNICATIONS AND NETWORKING.

Scientific Awards:

• National Patent for OPTIALP, a fiber optic-based system for avalanche detection, debris flow, and rock block impact monitoring on rockfall networks.

Rizzelli Martella has supervised PhD student Giuseppe Caruso in the Optical Communication group (OPTCOM), focusing on next-generation optical architectures and passive optical networks. His teaching roles include collaborations on courses such as Optical Communications and Wireless Communications and ICT Tools for Service Management.
