The
Wireless And Mobile Systems Laboratory conducts studies on computer
networking and communications for
a variety of systems, including next generation infrastructured
wireless local area and wide area networks, sensor
and ad hoc networks, and
special studies networks (satellite, avionic).
Particular emphasis has historically been
given to the development and
analysis of protocols for medium access control, security, and mobility
managment.
We envision a future of integrated networks that
adapt and respond according to real-time parameters, such as
traffic carried, users served, channel
conditions, mobility, and security. This requires creating a network
environment
for learning and acting,
based on a set of observations, as well as a tool set of interoperable
protocols evolving
at all layers of
computer networking.
Continuing research
focuses on creating novel cognitive network techniques
that build upon the
catalogue
of protocols that have
been created.
