Description
The Communications, Circuits, and Sensing-Systems (CCSS) program is intended to spur visionary systems-oriented activities in collaborative, multidisciplinary, and integrative research. CCSS supports systems research in hardware, signal processing techniques, and architectures to enable the next generation of cyber systems (CPS) that leverage computation, communication, and algorithms integrated with physical domains. CCSS offers new challenges at all levels of systems integration to address future societal needs. CCSS supports innovative research and integrated educational activities in micro- and nano-systems, communications systems, and cyber systems. The goal is to design, develop, and implement new complex and hybrid systems at all scales, including nano, micro, and macro, that lead to innovative engineering principles and solutions for a variety of application domains including, but not limited to, healthcare, medicine, environmental monitoring, communications, disaster mitigation, homeland security, transportation, manufacturing, energy, and smart buildings. CCSS also supports integration technologies at both intra-and inter-chip levels, new and advanced radio frequency (RF), millimeter wave and optical wireless and hybrid communications systems architectures, and sensing and imaging at terahertz (THz) frequencies. Proposals for the CCSS program may involve collaborative research to capture the breadth of expertise needed for such multidisciplinary integrative activities. ECCS will consider supporting a limited number of small team proposals of three or more Investigators from different disciplines and/or universities.Areas of interest include:George HaddadLow Power, Low Noise, High Efficiency Communications, Sensing and Imaging SystemsRF/Microwave and mm-Wave Circuits for Imaging and Sensing SystemsInter- and Intra-Chip Communications and Networking Wireless Integrated Sensors Submillimeter-Wave/Terahertz (THz) Imaging and Sensing SystemsIntegrated Circuit Design (Fault Tolerant, Self Test and Repair, Stochastic Design)Mixed Signal Circuits and Systems Interconnects and Packaging TechniquesZhi (Gerry) TianCyber-Physical Systems (CPS) RF/Wireless, Optical, and Hybrid Communications and NetworkingIntegrated Sensing, Communication, and Computational Systems Spectrum Access and Spectrum SharingSignal Processing and Compressive SamplingCyber Security Cognitive RadioLawrence GoldbergMicro, Nano, and Bio Systems MEMS/NEMS Systems-on-a-Chip Sensors, Actuators, and Electronic Interfaces Diagnostic and Implantable Systems Chemical, Biological, and Physical Diagnostics Environmental Sensing and Monitoring Infrastructure Monitoring Micro Power and Energy ScavengingSystem-Level Fabrication, Packaging, and Assembly
