Cognitive internet of things networks for Defence cyber physical systems

Our research concentrates on the design novel techniques of agile, wireless Internet of Things (IoT) networks that can operate in congested and hostile transmission conditions to deliver information to humans and other cyber entities. The project will develop network algorithms and architecture for short and medium-range IoT networks that can adapt to operational environments.
