Connectivity drives the way we work, live, play and learn, and the long term objective of the proposed research program is to realize higher capacities and bandwidths in both fiber transmission systems and dispersion engineered micro/millimeter-wave systems. In this context, we are proposing research on two interrelated topics: Theme 1: Terabit Fiber Optic Transmission Systems; and Theme 2: Dispersion Engineered Micro/Millimeter-Wave Signal Processing Systems. The past decade has seen profound changes not only in the way we communicate using the Internet but also in our expectations of what the Internet will deliver. The exponentially growing demand created by human generated traffic and machine generated traffic will push fiber optic networks to their fundamental capacity limits. The long term objective of Theme 1 is to provide innovative and original solutions to the problem of capacity and bandwidth exhaust in fiber optic transmission systems. Our proposed Theme 1 research will significantly impact both system design and technology deployment in future fiber optic metro networks and wide area networks. As use of Internet capacity grows, so too does consumption of the local wireless frequency spectrum. Specifically, GHz-range Ultra-WideBand (UWB) signals will enable new short range high data rate (multi-Gbps) communication systems, as well as being applied in areas such as penetrating radar for medical, rescue and security applications. The long term objective of Theme 2 is to develop and demonstrate tools of unprecedented flexibility in the time-and-frequency domain manipulation of UWB signals for such wireless communications and sensing systems. Successful implementation of Theme 2 research will significantly impact how UWB signals in the wireless world are processed. The ICT sector is central to Canada's economic development and this sector has grown at twice the annual growth rate of the overall Canadian economy since 2002. Furthermore, R&D spending in the ICT sector is 38% of the total Canadian private sector R&D expenditures. Ideas developed will be embraced by Canada's innovative ICT industry, an industry with which I have extensive collaborations.

连通性驱动着我们的工作、生活、娱乐和学习方式，拟议研究计划的长期目标是在光纤传输系统和色散工程微/毫米波系统中实现更高的容量和带宽。在这种情况下，我们提出了两个相互关联的主题的研究：主题1：太比特光纤传输系统;和主题2：色散工程微/毫米波信号处理系统。在过去的十年里，我们不仅在使用互联网进行交流的方式上发生了深刻的变化，而且在我们对互联网将提供什么的期望上也发生了深刻的变化。人类产生的流量和机器产生的流量所产生的呈指数级增长的需求将推动光纤网络达到其基本容量极限。主题1的长期目标是为光纤传输系统中的容量和带宽耗尽问题提供创新和原创的解决方案。我们提出的主题1研究将对未来光纤城域网和广域网的系统设计和技术部署产生重大影响。随着互联网容量使用的增长，本地无线频谱的消耗也在增长。具体而言，GHz范围的超宽带（UWB）信号将使新的短距离高数据速率（multi-Gbps）通信系统成为可能，并将应用于医疗、救援和安全应用的穿透雷达等领域。主题2的长期目标是开发和展示具有前所未有的灵活性的工具，用于此类无线通信和传感系统的UWB信号的时域和频域操作。主题2研究的成功实施将对无线世界中UWB信号的处理方式产生重大影响。信息和通信技术部门是加拿大经济发展的核心，自2002年以来，该部门的增长率是加拿大整体经济年增长率的两倍。此外，信息和通信技术部门的研发支出占加拿大私营部门研发支出总额的38%。加拿大创新的信息和通信技术行业将采纳所提出的想法，我与该行业有着广泛的合作。
