Improvements in headphone based 3-D audio using adaptive binaural signal processing and robust head-tracking

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Design of immersive binaural surround systems requires an understanding of the perceptual cues for sound source localisation. Any source at a given angle of incidence to the head will create subtle time and level difference cues at the ears and is subject to spectral shaping due to the pinnae. Read more

Immersive Audio for Virtual Production

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
We seek a candidate to work in the area of immersive sound for virtual production technologies for live performance. We are interested in PhDs to develop the underlying signal processing and perceptual evaluation of shared, networked immersive audio enviroments across a range of different contexts and experiences. Read more

High-lifespan many-core devices

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Switching activity and other technology-related parameters have a significant effect on circuit aging and can therefore affect the lifespan of devices. Read more

Exploitation of Full-Duplex Capability in Underwater Acoustic Communication Networks at the Medium Access Control Layer

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Full-duplex has the potential to double the capacity of point-to-point communication links, but these benefits can only be fully realised in communication networks through development of a suitable medium access control layer. Read more

Energy-harvesting based MAC protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
A plethora of energy-efficient MAC protocols have been developed for wireless sensor networks based on the assumption of readily available (if somewhat limited) battery power. Read more

Computational neuroscience: Statistical signal processing for multivariate neuronal data, Neural computing with Spiking neural networks.

  Research Group: Healthcare Engineering
How does the human brain work? As you read this text, the pixels on your screen are converted into a series of spike trains passing along the neural pathways in your brain, allowing you to understand the content. Read more

Building Baymax - Flexible Robot Skin: Smart sensors and algorithms

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
In this project, we aim to develop the next generation of household robots (not vacuum cleaners but multi-task robotic manipulators) that are safe to interact with, even for children and the elderly. Read more

Artificial Intelligence enabled Distributed Edge-Centric Cellular Networks

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Today, wireless cellular networks rely heavily on the core network to deliver services. This introduces latency and other inefficiencies. Read more

Artificial Intelligence based Electric Vehicle Motor Control

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Electric vehicle development has been a hot topic around the world. This PhD programme will develop artificial intelligence based control methods to optimize the performance of electric vehicle motor drive system in terms of reliability and efficiency. Read more

6G Wireless Communications for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles in Challenging Environments

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Future autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicles will rely significantly on wireless connectivity to exchange information between other vehicles (V2V) and infrastructure (V2I). Read more

Multi-Fidelity Modelling of Rechargeable Battery Degradation

  Research Group: Intelligent Systems and Robotics
Rechargeable batteries play a key role in electric vehicles and transition to net zero. One of the current challenges in batteries is degradation, which causes capacity retention and resistance increase as the battery cycles. Read more

Semantic random-access technology for future wireless ecosystems

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
This PhD project will research into new technical innovations that can embrace today’s machine learning advances into a process of designing and managing wireless communications for emergent AI agents, where they will mimic human ability to effectively learn, fine-tune and adapt skills of conveying semantic information. Read more

Peer-sourcing AI agents for future network autonomy

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
All connected services across emergent edge-computing devices will run directly or indirectly from the future 6G wireless ecosystems (e.g., unmanned automotive/ship, digital twins, extended reality, etc.) In 2025, the 5G will cover more than 50% of total wireless media revenue and this grows up to about 80% in 2028.
