Information and Communication Technology is a key contributor to national productivity and growth. ACoRN aims to stimulate creativity, innovation and breakthrough science, leading to technological advancement in telecommunications. The focus is on development of fundamental theories for application to emerging wired and wireless communications technologies. Specific objectives include consolidation of existing linkages; facilitation of multidisciplinary research; formation of new links; stimulation of commercial activity; improved post-graduate education; and increased International prominence. Our current vision involves a range of programs including: undergraduate occupational training, postgraduate internships, national and international visiting programs, and seed funding for collaborative proposals.Read moreRead less
Enabling ultra-reliable and sustainable machine-to-machine communications. This project aims to develop spectrum sharing and power transfer techniques for machine-to-machine communications in future wireless networks. Current wireless networks have high data rate as a priority but cannot deliver ultra-reliable and extended battery life operation for many low data rate machine-type devices. Through proper design of wireless and autonomous machine-to-machine communications, this project expects to ....Enabling ultra-reliable and sustainable machine-to-machine communications. This project aims to develop spectrum sharing and power transfer techniques for machine-to-machine communications in future wireless networks. Current wireless networks have high data rate as a priority but cannot deliver ultra-reliable and extended battery life operation for many low data rate machine-type devices. Through proper design of wireless and autonomous machine-to-machine communications, this project expects to improve quality of life and implement ultra-reliable, intelligent and long lasting machine-type monitoring devices for health, agriculture, mining, wildlife and critical national infrastructure.Read moreRead less
