Communications and Networks Laboratory
Location:
Room C401B, at the 4th floor of Block C.
Description:
The main research direction of the communication and network laboratory is mobile communication technology and Internet technology. The third generation (3G) mobile communication research laboratory and IPv6 research laboratory were built in the early period. At present, the main research fields are the new generation of communication and intelligent computing technologies, including cognitive radio, Internet of Things, cloud computing, block chain, software definition network (SDN), and wireless artificial intelligence,network intrusion detection and defense.
Equipment:
The laboratory has set up an independent research network with a 1Gbps backbone network and an Internet outlet with an independent 50Mbps fiber connection. The laboratory has set up a private cloud system and SDN system independently. The cloud system connects to the N9K high-speed switch system dedicated to Cisco's new 1-generation data center, which provides 10 Gbps of connectivity to each individual port of the cloud system and a backbone connection between switches up to 40 Gbps.
