Summary
Optical and Microwave Free-Space Communications Development and Test Facility. Our aim is to upgrade the capability of the University of Canberra, Monash University, the RMIT University and The University of New South Wales at ADFA to collaborate in the development and testing of next generation ultra-broadband telecommunications and data-communications devices and systems. We will augment existing instrumentation at each of the institutions to enable the collaborative development, testing and ....Optical and Microwave Free-Space Communications Development and Test Facility. Our aim is to upgrade the capability of the University of Canberra, Monash University, the RMIT University and The University of New South Wales at ADFA to collaborate in the development and testing of next generation ultra-broadband telecommunications and data-communications devices and systems. We will augment existing instrumentation at each of the institutions to enable the collaborative development, testing and system integration of high capacity free-space optical and microwave components. Experimental systems will be tested in the free-space optical communications range and satellite earth station complex situated on the University of Canberra campus.Read moreRead less

Summary
Infrastructure for wireless Internet technology development for rural Australia. Three nodes of a low-power, very-high frequency digital wireless network will be installed at two locations in the Australian National University and one location at the University of Canberra. An additional node will then be located a further distance away (> 50 kms) in the ACT. This network will allow the development of novel technology for moderate speed (>100 kbps) non-line of sight wireless Internet access o ....Infrastructure for wireless Internet technology development for rural Australia. Three nodes of a low-power, very-high frequency digital wireless network will be installed at two locations in the Australian National University and one location at the University of Canberra. An additional node will then be located a further distance away (> 50 kms) in the ACT. This network will allow the development of novel technology for moderate speed (>100 kbps) non-line of sight wireless Internet access over ranges of 3-100 km for potential use by regional Australian Internet providers. The network will also catalyse research and training in wireless communication technology , digital signal processing, and computer networking.Read moreRead less
