TelecomAI Lab
The TelecomAI-Lab is a research facility committed to advancing the convergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and telecommunications, with a particular emphasis on neuromorphic computing and AI-driven innovations for next-generation communication networks.
Research and Testing
TelecomAI-Lab focuses on developing and validating AI-based solutions for telecommunications, particularly in wireless and satellite communication systems. Its research explores neuromorphic computing paradigms for energy-efficient and high-performance signal processing, as well as AI-driven enhancements for 5G/6G networks and non-terrestrial networks (NTN). The lab also investigates AI-based optimisations in physical layer communications, resource allocation, and interference management.
Facilities and Equipment
The TelecomAI-Lab is equipped with cutting-edge AI accelerators and neuromorphic processors to drive innovation in communication systems. Key hardware resources include:
- Neuromorphic processors, such as Akida (BrainChip) and Loihi (Intel), designed for bio-inspired, low-power computation.
- AI accelerators, including the Versal AI Core Series VCK family, optimised for AI-based signal processing and edge computing.
- High-performance computing (HPC) resources for training and deploying deep learning models in communication networks.
Unlike traditional communication laboratories, TelecomAI-Lab focuses on AI-native solutions for signal processing and network optimisation.
