Associated Research Groups

The Adaptive Communications and Signal Processing Group (ACSP) investigates behaviors of sensor networks with mobile agents cooperatively performing complex tasks under various sensing and communication constraints. Applications include search-and-rescue, network security, intrusion detection, surveillance, and perimeter defense in millitary applications

Communications Research in Signal Processing (CRISP) - the broad expertise of our group is in the application of tools of signal analysis and synthesis, statistical signal processing, detection and estimation theory, and information theory. Considering signals to be the vehicles of information, we use these tools to design and reconstruct signals that support the functionalities of complex information network architectures.

The Engineering and Economics of Electricity Research Group (E3RG) is a research center and laboratory specializing in electric power systems engineering and experimental economics.

The Power Engineering Research Center's (PSERC) comprehensive research program spans markets, transmission and distribution technologies, and systems to find opportunities for advancing high performance electric power systems through innovative and collaborative research.

The Wireless Networks Laboratory (WNL) is at the forefront of research and education in the area of wireless communications and networking. Our primary areas of study are protocols and algorithms.
