Goals and Missions

The mission of WIN laboratory is to conduct research and education in the field of Wireless Communication Engineering and to develop industry partnerships to solve significant issues of interest in telecommunication.
Wireless communication is the transfer of information over a distance without the use of enhanced electrical conductors or "wires". The distances involved may be short or long. When the context is clear, the term is often shortened to "wireless". Wireless communication is generally considered to be a branch of telecommunications.
