I/UCRC for Wireless Information Networks

这项提案是为了拨款在罗格斯大学建立一个无线信息网络产业/大学合作研究中心。无绳电话和蜂窝无线电等无线信息服务在技术上还处于初级阶段。该中心研究计划的目的是克服制约无线网络发展和增强的瓶颈。建议的系统研究项目包括：a)多址接入性能评估，b)无线网络中面向对象的系统集成，c)动态频谱重用，d)物理层优化，e)无线网络试验台。项目经理建议在接下来的五年里继续每年奖励50,000美元给罗格斯大学，以建立一个无线信息网络中心。在每12个月期间接近结束时，方案主管和/或工程中心司司长将根据若干标准审查中心的进展情况，这些标准包括：(1)大学与产业的互动与合作发展到什么程度；(2)支助基础扩大到什么程度；(3)一个强有力的研究项目正在发展到什么程度。如果审查令人满意，计划主任将建议支持下一阶段的这项持续赠款。

This proposal is for a grant to establish a Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Wireless Information Networks at Rutgers University. Wireless information services such as cordless telephone and cellular radio are technologically in their infancy. The aim of the research program at the Center is to overcome bottlenecks that restrict the growth and enhancement of wireless networking. The proposed systems research projects include; a) multiple access performance evaluation, b) object oriented systems integration in wireless networks, c) Dynamic spectrum reuse, d) optimization of the physical layer, and e) a wireless network testbed. The Program Manager recommends a continuing award of $50,000 each year for the next five years to Rutgers University for establishing a Center for Wireless Information Networks. Near the end of each 12 month period the Program Manager and/or the Director of the Engineering Centers Division will review the progress of the Center on a number of criteria, including the following: (1) the extent to which the university-industry interaction and collaboration is developing; (2) the extent to which the support base is expanding; (3) the extent to which a robust research program is developing. If the review is satisfactory, the Program Director will recommend support of the next period of this continuing grant.
