In order to improve the inter-university cooperation, initiate a Memorandum of Understanding between TPU, Russia and NIT, Trichy, India.
RO1--The research objective of UAV communication, capitalizes on the self-energy harvesting scheme in UAV instead of using conventional battery charged UAVs. The Weibull fading channel is studied methodically over source to relay and relay to user cooperative communication system for UAVs. Considering Decode and Forward (DF) transmission protocol, we derive close-form expressions for outage probability and average throughput for the system. Both the Half Duplex and Full Duplex models are swotted. Furthermore, the impact of selection diversity combining technique is analyzed at the destination for direct path and path via UAV as relay.
RO2--A performance metric that captures the freshness of the received information and is appropriate for applications requiring timely information to accomplish specific tasks (e.g., sensor networks, cyberphysical systems, etc), is called age of information (AoI). It is defined as the time elapsed since the generation of the freshest status update that has reached the destination. For time critical applications like intelligent transportation the AoI has to be minimized. In this work we derive the AoI for energy harvesting sensor that intends to transmit the information to a base station through an UAV that acts as a relay. We propose optimum energy harvesting time to minimize the age of information for such a system. RO3 -- Wireless Powered Communication Networks (WPCNs) is a promising networking framework that enables wireless devices to harvest RF signal from the ambient transmitters for active data transmission. However, in this design it may take a long time for a wireless transmitter to accumulate sufficient energy for active transmissions, and thus the system's output is significantly sub-optimal. To resolve this we integrate backscatter communication technology concept into WPCNs to further improve the system performance. The motivation is from the fact that the backscatter communications can transmit data by backscattering RF signals without requiring any external power source.
RO4-- To implement optimization techniques in terms of power allocation and harvesting coefficient to improve the performance of Simultaneous Wireless Information based Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access Systems.
RO5 --The deployment of underwater sensor networks (UWSNs), unmanned underwater vehicle (UUAVs) and remotely autonomous vehicles (ROVs). The work focuses on, establishment of cooperative communication setup for RF-VLC and FSO-VLC through decode and forward way by determining various channel conditions. The BER performance for proposed communication links will be verified for both underwater and FSO channels by considering large and small-scale factors for channel impairments.
RO6 -- A research interaction on the positioning of UAVs for throughput maximization and developing a UAV network to monitor the considered area over the ocean. The discussion have come up with the objective of finding the various constraints in UAV positioning and the application for which it can be used. This research will be continued further to develop energy harvesting techniques to improve the lifetime of considered UAV network.

Under Water Wireless Communication
The growth of telecommunication sector has improved the user experience in
terms of services and applications. With the upcoming 5GPPP, the mobile networks tend to exploit the high-frequency technology to support a large
number of devices at a higher rate without disruptions. With a large
number of devices operating at the same instance, it becomes difficult to
identify security threats and intruders that can intentionally hide in the
vast information floating across the network. Many KPI's needs to be
strengthened as more spectrum space is available in the 5G networks that
can sustain heavy bits without affecting the transmission range. To this
end, this workshop features a wide range of topics related to 5G wireless
communications. The workshop is aimed at postgraduate students, early
career researchers, faculty and industry partners.
