Our world is a connected world. We must also make it a resilient, energy efficient world. Our researchers in this area work in two general areas – Information and Computing and Networks and Communication.
Information and computing
Our researchers are developing hardware and software for efficient information processing and decision making. They are exploring topics ranging from neuromorphic devices and algorithms to energy efficient computer and network systems.
Networks and communication
Our research focuses on enabling connectivity between humans, machines, and systems to drive forward more connected, agile, and efficient transport, services, industry, and society. From 5G for remote surgery to microfluidic devices for communication, we are exploring new technologies to develop innovative solutions.
Activities
Using 5G to deliver medical supplies with unmanned drones
Professor Toktam Mahmoodi worked with industry partners Ericsson, Verizon, and BT to trial the transformative possibilities of global 5G networks, looking specifically at the delivery of medical supplies.
Centre for Telecommunications Research
The Centre for Telecommunication Research (CTR) was founded in 1994, and has been part of the global ecosystem which design and deployed 2G, then 3G and 4G, and now 5G. The Centre has become an exciting hub of cutting-edge research and ground-breaking innovation, counting on more than 200 people today. Underpinned by £m in public and private funding, we are advancing wireless communication and multimedia technologies.
