In response to the needs of artificial intelligence (AI), fifth-generation mobile communications (5G), the Internet of Things, unmanned vehicles and other technological needs, the technology industry needs more continuous cross-domain integration, engineering and electrical sub-fields (such as "control", "telecommunications"), "Electronics and Semiconductors", "Optical Electronics", etc.), if the continuous improvement can be continued, the wide-area of research will be further combined with the fields of "information", biomedicine, and "materials" to further the development trend of the technology industry in the future. According to the trajectory and the development needs of the future technology industry of specific software, the development direction of the department was planned in the near five years (2020~2024) in accordance with the existing and future planning of teachers, hardware and other resources. According to this goal, it will deepen the development and help families nurture Technology, cultivate outstanding talents in the field.
The research objectives of the Department of Electrical Engineering include:
- The fifth generation of mobile communications (5G):
Key research projects include heterogeneous network, interference management technology, millimeter wave communication, cloud wireless access network, non-orthogonal multiple access, direct communication between devices, etc.
- Communication signal processing:
Key research projects include channel estimation technology, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing system, massive multiple input multiple output system, wireless full duplex communication, etc.
- Cooperative and perceptual communication:
Key research projects include two-way relay technology, frequency band sensing, and frequency band usage.
- Internet of Things and Sensor Network:
Key research projects include distributed detection and estimation, compressed sensing, and energy harvesting communication technology.
- Smart grid communication:
Key research projects include demand response and dynamic electricity prices, smart grid security and privacy, and smart grid state estimation.
- Antenna technology:
Key research projects include antennas for 5G mobile communication devices, antennas for wearable devices, RFID antennas, green energy antennas, and MIMO antenna systems.
- Machine-to-machine communication:
The machines can be connected to each other without human intervention or very little human intervention. In other words, the machine itself can generate data, process data, and exchange data with other machines automatically. This technology can bring great industrial benefits at a very low cost, and can be applied to many applications such as smart grids, smart cities, and smart homes.
- Smart vehicle telematics industry:
The vehicle industry and the information and communications industry can be combined to increase added value, which not only improves transportation safety, efficiency and energy saving, but also expands its related application service industry.
- Green Energy Wireless Communication:
It can save energy consumption, reduce carbon emissions and increase corporate profits.
- Information hiding and digital watermark related technologies:
Used for secret transmission of data, protection and authentication of copyright property rights.
- Related technologies such as wireless sensor network key transmission management:
Wireless sensor networks can be deployed in areas where personnel are not easily accessible or on battlefields where personnel security threats are high, for data collection and analysis or real-time monitoring and response purposes. Security mechanisms such as key exchange authentication can ensure the correctness of the collected data and not easily be stolen or tampered with illegally.
- Related technologies such as broadcast encryption:
Control the access of network data (such as audio and video streaming), access control of cable TV, and can also be used for encryption and copy protection of audio and video discs.
- Optical communication:
Key research projects include optical fiber communication, visible light communication, etc.
- All-fiber leak detection and sensing system:
It can be used for high-pressure gas and liquid pipeline leak detection, and it can also promote industry-academic cooperation with private companies.
- Distributed multiplexed optical fiber sensing system:
It can be used for sound and vibration detection, and it can also promote industry-academic cooperation with private companies.
- Semiconductor laser pump fiber:
High-power fiber lasers with small size, high energy conversion efficiency and good heat dissipation can be produced. Combining the research of special materials can develop optical fiber lasers with academic value and application value; such as laser light sources required for special optical fiber spectrum research, biomedical and display optics applications.
- New type of liquid crystal display element:
Including bistable reflective, winding, fast response and other display elements.
- New 3D liquid crystal display architecture
In the future, the Department of Electrical Engineering will actively carry out industry-academic cooperation projects with the industry to assist the industry in the development of high-tech products. In addition, it will also strengthen the promotion of student industry internship opportunities, so that students can receive pre-employment training earlier and trigger their deeper learning, shorten the industry-university gap, and enhance employment competitiveness.
