B-WiSE group research interests and expertise are multidisciplinary in that they include not only the traditional aspects of networking technology per se but also the many aspects of signal processing at the application level and statistical communications and coding at the physical layer. The main focus of our current research is on short range wireless communications, with specific applications in the following fields:

• 4G Communications

Mobile Ad-hoc & Infrastructured Networks
Security, Re-Configurability, Cross-layer optimization

• Sensor Networks

Architectures of Smart Sensor Nodes
Security, Self-Configurability, Cross-layer optimization
Distributed Signal Processing & Compression

• Broadband Radio interfaces

Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radio
Advanced Multi-carrier Modulation
Antenna Arrays & MIMO systems

• Wireless Multimedia Communications

End-to-end Quality-of-Service (QoS), Content Protection.

Other Research Activities

The goal of this line of research is to formalize the conditions under which these algorithms work well and provide a causal connection between their performance and the structure of the underlying solutions space.

• Aerial Processing Techniques
• Model-free measurement based QoS provisioning for multimedia services
• Wireless link modeling for Quality of Service support in wireless networks.
• MAC Designs & Routing Algorithms for Ad-Hoc Networks
• Home Networking - Ultra Wideband Radio & Broadband Multimedia Networking
