The division has around 40 employees and consists of four research groups:
For a presentation of each research group, see below.
This group conducts research on air security including manned air communication systems and drone identification and communication, as well as ground IT security including industrial internet, smartgrids, security and monitoring of vehicular systems (cars, ships, rails) and 6G.
The group is led by Andrei Gurtov, Professor.
This group performs research on communication networks, such as semantics-aware goal-oriented communications, timeliness of information, tactile internet, wireless energy harvesting networks, performance analysis and stochastic modeling, and physical layer security. An important research direction is how to utilize the traffic properties and characteristics to increase the performance of wireless networks by reducing the amount of information that is generated, transmitted, and processed in a network. Typical examples include content caching and timing properties and requirements of traffic, which are crucial aspects towards 6G communications.
The group is led by Nikolaos Pappas, Associate Professor.
We focus on getting the right information to the right people at the right time. Information security is an important part of this aim: for a system to be trusted, it must also be secure.
Research within this group is done on a broad range of topics, spanning security, networks, and related areas such as performance evaluation and multimedia systems.
The group is led by Niklas Carlsson, Professor.
Dependable systems and networks, including reliability, safety and security, resource efficiency with respect to computation capacity, memory, bandwidth and energy.
The group is led by Mikael Asplund, Senior Associate Professor.
