Future wireless systems of mobile networks and defence platforms will need to offer high-speed, low-delay, reliable connectivity and high bandwidth. With the explosive growth of wireless systems, this creates significant challenges in fronthaul - the link connecting antennas with the signal processors and core network. This project aims to design and develop an innovative fronthaul for wireless systems based on a dynamically reconfigurable, software-defined photonic platform capable of meeting diverse requirements. The outcomes of this project will help build a scalable fronthaul solution to overcome fundamental challenges and realise cost-effective pathways for transforming how future wireless networks and defence platforms are realised.

未来的移动网络和防御平台的无线系统将需要提供高速、低延迟、可靠的连接和高带宽。随着无线系统的爆炸性增长，这给前端-连接天线与信号处理器和核心网络的链路-带来了巨大的挑战。该项目旨在设计和开发一种创新的无线系统前端通道，基于能够满足不同需求的动态可重构、软件定义的光子平台。该项目的成果将有助于构建一个可扩展的前端解决方案，以克服根本挑战，并实现具有成本效益的路径，以改变未来无线网络和防御平台的实现方式。
