jean-marie.gorce@insa-lyon.frJean-Marie is the former head of the CITI research lab at INSA Lyon and one of the researchers of the Socrate team. He specializes in wireless link modeling and optimization. He is the head of CorteXlab as well as our chief evangelist.

Prof. Dr. Tanguy Risset
Head of Socrate / Researcher
tanguy.risset@insa-lyon.frTanguy is the head of the Socrate research team at Inria and at the CITI research lab. He is also one of the executives of the FIT/CorteXlab testbed. He specializes in embedded systems, high level synthesis as well as SOC simulations.

Prof. Dr. Guillaume Villemaud
Researcher
guillaume.villemaud@insa-lyon.frGuillaume is a researcher of the Socrate team and specializes in smart antennas and wireless link. He is one of the executives of CorteXlab.

Dr. Florin Hutu
Researcher
florin-doru.hutu@insa-lyon.frFlorin is a researcher in the Socrate team. He is helping out with radio frequencies and signal measurements aspects of the project.
Testbed Design and Execution:

Olivier Nicolas
Engineer
olivier.nicolas@insa-lyon.frOlivier works on the testbed infrastructure.
-

othmane Oubejja
Engineer
othmane.oubejja@inria.frOthmane maintains FPGA design for the PicoSDR platform in order to have cognitive radio experiment on CorteXlab.
He also works on setting up of flexible transmit/receive chains on the PicoSDR platforms, ensuring coherent and optimized experiments on the testbed.

Dr. Leonardo Sampaio Cardoso
Associate Professor
leonardo.sampaio-cardoso@inria.frLeonardo is responsible for the implementation of software defined and cognitive radio scenarios on the nodes with the GNU Radio toolkit. He also works on the testbed services software development.

Matthieu Imbert
Engineer
matthieu.imbert@inria.frMatthieu works on the testbed infrastructure and services software development.
Engineering Support/Counseling:

Stéphane D’Alu
Engineer
stephane.dalu@insa-lyon.frStéphane is helping with the testbed operations by providing support and expertise on various infrastructure and software related aspects of the project.

Frédéric Saint-Marcel
Engineer
frederic.saint-marcel@inria.frFrédéric is the lead engineer of the associate project FIT/IoT-lab and provides valuable expertise and resources for the conception and operation of the testbed. He helps with the federation of CorteXlab with all the other FIT testbeds.
Administrative support:
Former members:

Benjamin Guillon
Engineer
benjamin.guillon@inria.frBenjamin is responsible for the design and the development of the CorteXlab infrastructure. From the servers to the user web interface.

Dr. Abdelbasset Massouri
Engineer
abdelbassat.massouri@inria.frAbdelbasset is responsible for the FPGA development on the SDR nodes for CorteXlab. He also implements communication protocols on FPGA whose source code will be released for the community.

Louis Besème
Engineer
louis.beseme@inria.frLouis works on the testbed infrastructure, especialy on the integration of the nutaq picosdr nodes in the cortexlab platform

Gaëlle Tworkowski
Assistant
gaelle.tworkowski@inria.frGaëlle is the administrative assistant that enables the project to keep going on a daily basis.

Dr. Antoine Scherrer
Engineer
Antoine was one of the engineer responsible for
the embedded aspects of the CorteXlab nodes.

Dr. Hervé Parvery
Engineer
Herve was responsible for the radio signal propagation preliminary studies for the experimentation room design.
