Research Interests

In recent years, Taiwan's communications industry has flourished rapidly, its output value leapfrogging to become one of the nation's most important industries, boasting immense potential and significant room for growth. Furthermore, the establishment of the Southern Taiwan Science Park and the National Telecommunications Technology Center requires a significant talent pool. Therefore, our institute will focus on cutting-edge communications technology development, international exchange and collaboration, and collaboration with the southern Taiwan industry. Building on our existing solid foundation, we have formulated the following research directions and goals:

Next-generation mobile communications and satellite communications
Multimedia communications technologies and systems
Cloud computing platform technologies and applications
Wireless network technologies and applications
Biomedical sensing and smart health promotion systems
Smart environments and interactive technologies
