Research
We have a long standing track record of being a major academic research group in the field of wireless communications within Europe, and historically we have a unique research approach on both satellite as well as terrestrial mobile communication systems.
Key work areas
Our research will address all levels of communication systems as well as the key challenges in the development of a 5G infrastructure capable of providing connectivity for future technologies.
Our aim
A fundamental aim will be to use context – about users, services, networks and devices – to enable advanced communications capabilities that will provide an unparalleled user experience.

Projects
We support the MultiSphere project which is looking at two paradigm shifts that have a strong potential to transform the way we design wireless communications systems and we are part of the PETRAS Internet of Things Research Hub, looking at critical issues in privacy, ethics, trust, reliability, acceptability, and security alongside ten other leading UK universities.
What we can offer
We have a state-of-the-art 5G technology evaluation facility, testbeds and labs and are committed to collaborating closely with a broad range of businesses and other partners to drive forward advanced wireless research.
