CfCS was established in 1988 as an interdisciplinary centre involving academic staff from the Department of Engineering, Department of Computer Science and the Department of Mathematics.
The focus of the Centre is on studying techniques concerned with the efficient use of the spectrum for future radio networks in various frequency bands ranging from HF to mm waves. It brings together mathematical modelling, radio network expertise, cryptography and coding, radio frequency circuit, antenna design and radio systems for estimating the radio channel effects on radio communication and radar systems.
