Ultra-reliable and low-latency mission critical communications

This project aims to develop enabling technologies for a new wireless paradigm -- ultra-reliable and low-latency communications. While the evolution of wireless communication technologies to date has focused on data rate improvement, very little is known on how to achieve ultra-reliability and almost-zero latency which is urgently required for mission critical applications such as smart manufacturing and intelligent vehicles. The expected outcomes of the project are new analytical tools and practical guidelines for designing trusted communication platforms to realise these mission critical applications, with benefits ranging from improved safety in intelligent transportation systems to digital transformation of the manufacturing industry.
