The Australian government has decided to support the timely rollout of fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication systems due to their potential for producing far-reaching economic and social benefits. This infrastructure rollout requires a quick, efficient deployment of the associated 5G base stations. The integration of 5G antenna arrays into existing 3G/4G base stations would alleviate the substantial cost increases and negative environmental impacts tied to acquiring new sites for them. This project aims to develop the theory and engineering methodologies necessary to successfully address the significant scientific challenges posed by the detrimental interference effects associated with the compact integration of 3G/4G/5G arrays.

This project aims to address the cybersecurity problem of securing telecommunication networks to prevent data leakage. Current widely-adopted data-encryption approaches to secure communications will be broken with large-scale quantum computers, and existing information-theoretic approaches rely on the channel quality of the network. To circumvent these risks, this project proposes a new information security approach using information cached at devices to camouflage data. The project will future-proof secure communication systems against large-scale quantum computers, which threaten current encryption approaches. This should ensure that data transmitted over communication networks can never be revealed to interceptors or hackers, even in public WiFi.Read moreRead less
