Wireless and Sensor Systems (WiSe)

The SRO WiSe is partly a follow-up on the former SRO’s U-BRICKS and A-Services Internet. The new SRO WiSe now covers all the aspects of wireless and sensor networks from analog/digital integrated circuit design via wireless networks and computer architecture to distributed systems. This brings WiSe in a very strong position for future national and international multi-disciplinary research proposals.

Research agenda and scientific goals

The aim of the research in WiSe is to design and validate new techniques for wireless and sensor networks and their applications. The research topics that are addressed in WiSe are related to the design and application of large-scale wireless communication and sensor systems. The research is a combination of digital information processing, efficient and flexible wireless communication, protocols for networking, efficient reconfigurable architectures, and dependable and distributed applications. Validation can be done by means of prototypes, (e.g., stochastic) models, or other means. The WiSe research program is focused on four themes, which always will be interrelated due to the multidisciplinary nature of this research:
