I/UCRC for Optical Wireless Applications 1160924 Pennsylvania State University; Mohsen Kavehrad 1161010 Georgia Tech; Gee-Kung Chang The Center for Optical Wireless Applications (COWA) will focus on generating technology that enables manufacturing of specific devices with larger communications capacity, employing integrated opto-electronics device design with interfaces necessary to facilitate collaborative device, system and network design. Pennsylvania State University (PSU) and Georgia Tech (GT) are collaborating to establish the proposed center, with PSU as the lead institution. The objective of this proposal is to establish an NSF-sponsored Industry & University Cooperative Research Center on Optical Wireless Applications (COWA), in order to explore Optical Wireless Technology and economic potentials of energy efficient light sources through innovative designs and applications of solid-state optical sources and detectors for a wide range of practices that include optical imaging, remote sensing, communications and networking. The envisioned Center is based on the integration of interdisciplinary expertise at PSU, and GT with devices and systems-based engineering design and networking concepts. The envisioned Center will include efforts to instill the cultural paradigm shift associated with promoting research programs of interest to both industry and universities; exploring and extending the interface between engineering systems design, networking and integrated electro-optic device designs; improving the intellectual capacity of the workforce through industrial participation and conduct of high-quality research projects; and developing curriculum in components, systems and networks design aspects of optical wireless applications. The results of this research are expected to contribute to the business competitiveness, energy security, environmental protection, and climate forecast. The proposed Center will make every effort to promote diversity. In addition, it will work with existing university resources to recruit and build strong relationships with minority and women-owned companies.

光无线应用I/UCRC 1160924宾夕法尼亚州立大学；Mohsen Kavehrad 1161010佐治亚理工学院；Gee-Kung Chang光学无线应用中心(COVA)将专注于产生能够制造通信容量更大的特定设备的技术，采用具有促进协作设备、系统和网络设计所需接口的集成光电子设备设计。宾夕法尼亚州立大学(PSU)和佐治亚理工学院(GT)正在合作建立拟议的中心，宾夕法尼亚州立大学是牵头机构。这项提议的目标是建立一个由美国国家科学基金会赞助的工业和大学光无线应用合作研究中心(COVA)，通过创新设计和应用固态光源和探测器，探索光无线技术和节能光源的经济潜力，应用于包括光学成像、遥感、通信和网络在内的广泛实践。设想的中心基于PSU和GT的跨学科专业知识与基于设备和系统的工程设计和网络概念的整合。设想的中心将包括努力灌输与促进行业和大学感兴趣的研究项目相关的文化范式转变；探索和扩大工程系统设计、网络和集成电光设备设计之间的接口；通过行业参与和开展高质量的研究项目来提高劳动力的智力能力；以及开发光无线应用的部件、系统和网络设计方面的课程。这一研究成果有望为企业竞争力、能源安全、环境保护和气候预测做出贡献。拟建的中心将尽一切努力促进多样性。此外，它将与现有的大学资源合作，招聘少数族裔和女性所有的公司，并与之建立牢固的关系。
