Funded Activity Summary

Integrated Microwave-Photonic Subsystems for Antenna Remoting Applications in Defence and Wireless Communications. Millimetre-wave frequency bands are being explored for defence applications that provide better surveillance and detection electronic warfare capabilities. Microwave-photonic systems which integrate microwave and millimetre-wave electronic warfare capabilities with broadband photonic networking have been widely recognised as one of the crucial technologies to the development of new capabilities in current and next generation defence platforms. This project is focused on implementing advanced system integration approaches to the design, development and implementation of microwave-photonic sub-systems and resilient optical feeder network architectures. The outcomes of this project will also influence the development of broadband wireless access solutions.
