Funded Activity Summary

VHF wireless technologies for last-mile Internet access in regional Australia. One of Australia's most vexing social issues is the provision of the last-mile Internet connection in regional Australia. The BushLAN team will solve this problem at minimal cost by developing a cellular wireless local area network operating on the TV band I channels (45-70 MHz). We will do this by developing a wireless modem whose design takes into account the properties of radio propagation in the Australian environment. We are collaborating with Internet service providers in regional Australia to trial systems currently being developed. In the process we will develop a new technology that will provide training for young engineers.
