Ryo Yamamoto's research is centered on wireless communication, with emphasis on so-called wireless multi-hop networks. Generally, wireless communication is considered to be communicating by connecting via an access point or base station like wifi, wireless LAN, or cell phone. However, in Yamamoto's research on wireless multi-hop networks, devices relay communications with each other, and deliver them to the destination. "I think that most people are not familiar with this form of communication. However, it is considered very useful for technology such as internet of things IoT," says Yamamoto. Yamamoto is mainly studying routing technology, in particular how to make a route, who will relay it and so on.
