NSF approves Penn State optical wireless applications center
Monday, January 30, 2012=20The National Science Foundation (NSF) has approved an = Industry/University=20 Cooperative Research Center for Optical Wireless Applications in Penn = State's=20 Department of Electrical Engineering. The center will be funded by a = five-year=20 NSF grant and directed by Mohsen Kavhrad, W. L. Weiss Chair Professor of = electrical engineering.
The Georgia Institute of Technology also will participate in the = cooperative=20 project.
The center will aim to generate technology that enables manufacturing = of=20 specific devices with larger communications capacity by employing = integrated=20 opto-electronics device design with interfaces necessary to facilitate=20 collaborative device, system and network design.
Other engineering faculty who will participate in the project include = Kevin=20 Houser, associate professor of architectural engineering; Tim Kane, = professor=20 of electrical engineering; Zhiwen Liu, associate professor of = electrical=20 engineering; and Shizhuo Yin, professor of electrical = engineering.
