Summary
Electronics of the future: self-powering wireless circuit design. The aim of this project is to build a foundation for ultra-low-power wireless circuit design using technologies other than silicon. Scaling of transistors in silicon has been pushed to its limit and is of marginal benefit for low-power wireless circuit design. This project aims to address these limits by developing energy-efficient technology for wireless applications.

The aim of this project is to build a foundation for ultra-low-power wireless circuit design using technologies other than silicon. Scaling of transistors in silicon has been pushed to its limit and is of marginal benefit for low-power wireless circuit design. This project aims to address these limits by developing energy-efficient technology for wireless applications. The intended outcome of this project will be a self-powered, high data rate receiver that will be critical in 5th-generation wireless systems. This could be used for a range of innovative wireless applications, for example in health care and environmental monitoring.Read moreRead less
A new spectrum access technology for future wireless terminals. This project will develop a new frequency flexible wireless transceiver structure for the next generation of smartphones and wireless devices. The project will improve the roaming experience of travellers and reduce the cost of wireless connectivity, enabling new applications such as machine-to-machine communications and the internet-of-things.
