Welcome to the WiDE Lab - Wireless Devices and Electromagnetics Laboratory.
Mission:
​The mission of the WiDE Laboratory is to advance the state of the art and educate the next generation of innovators and entrepreneurs in the following domains:

• Wireless Systems, Antennas, and Sensors
• Connected and Autonomous Cyber-Physical Systems

To improve the performance of wireless devices and systems, team members perform focused research on:

• Material engineering for high frequency applications.
• Novel advanced manufacturing techniques for RF and optical communications applications.
• Optimized 3D antenna and circuit geometries.
• RF-based sensors for harsh environments and aerospace applications.
• Hardware security for high-frequency electronics.
• Proficient Artificial Intelligence, Trustworthiness and Robustness.
• Safety and Security of Connected and Autonomous Systems.
• Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing.

In addition to this generalized context, laboratory researchers have expertise on a wide range of topics in avionics and aerospace communications and sensing, including RADAR, satellite communications, and UAS Sense and Avoid.
