    Introduction
    The Centre welcomes sponsors from network operators, equipment suppliers, application developers, and service providers relating to the mobile communications industry. Companies can also provide research (MPhil or PhD) fellowships for students to conduct research in mobile technologies. Industrial participation will help shape the research direction of the Centre to better contribute to a more prosperous mobile industry in Hong Kong. In addition, the staff at the Centre will undertake contract research or cooperate with industrial partners to apply for Government funding support to conduct specific R&D projects that will benefit the local industry.



    Current Projects

    Consultancy Services in Modelling and Measuring the Network Capacity of the 3G Networks in Hong Kong
    (Funded by Office of the Telecommunications Authority)

    The Consultancy Report is written to propose a reference capacity model for OFTA in order to implement the Open Network Access (ONA) policy. The methodology and approach of the involved measurements will be explained, followed by the data processing and result analysis. Based on the findings of these extensive field measurements a reference model is proposed to characterize the "capacity" of a 3G network.


    RFID Tag and Reader Technologies at UHF band for Logistics Management
    (Funded by Innovation and Technology Fund)

    Sponsors:
  • IVHS Division, Mark IV Industries
  • ANSEN Electronics Company
  • e-jing Technologies
  • ITE (Holdings) Limited

    To develop the core technologies in RFID tags and readers and related networking and to apply the RFID technology to logistics management. The proposed research will investigate most of practical issues in building a RFID system and its network implementation. The emphasis of the project is placed on developing active RFID systems at UHF frequency band. On top of the systems, an advanced logistics management platform will be implemented and tested in a cross docking environments.

    The project is co-developed by the Department of Electronic Engineering, Information Engineering and Systems Engineering & Engineering Management, the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

  • A Wireless Mesh Network Testbed
    (Funded by Shun Hing Institute of Advanced Engineering)

    Wireless mesh network is a hot topic in the recent research. Most research papers of wireless networks nowadays rely on simulation, especially when mobility is added. However, it is obviously that simulation is unable to capture the complex signal irregularity in wireless channel, like in an indoor environment. This motivates the building of a wireless mesh network Testbed. The objective of this project is to setup a wireless mesh network testbed in the two engineering building by deploying about 30-40 mesh routers in different floors and locations. Various research experiments can then be performed in this network.
