Overview - Advanced Communication Center (ACC), Tel Aviv University

About > Overview

Communication is a major research and teaching area in the Electrical Engineering (EE) School at Tel-Aviv University, encompassing most disciplines in the School. The spectrum of communication research ranges from the high-level networking problems, dealing with packets and bytes, through research on coding, modulation and signal processing problems dealing with bits and signals, to analysis of the physical medium dealing with waves and photons and, ending with research on the analog communication front-end dealing with semiconductors, circuits and electrons. Some The Electrical Engineering school at Tel-Aviv University has acquired a world-class level of recognition in many of these areas. Some segments, such as high-speed analog and RF circuits and devices, need to be enhanced, both in Tel-Aviv University and in the entire Israeli academia and industry.

Communication is a major focus area of the Israeli High-Tech industry. Numerous companies, both large and start-ups, deal with all aspects of communication. In communication, the transition from academic research results to products is very fast. As communication speed in wireline, wireless and optical communication grows by orders of magnitudes, newer techniques are needed; these techniques are based on profound academic research and close cooperation beween academia and industry.

This important role of communication research in the Electrical Engineering School, and the high industry interest, led to the initiative to form the Advanced Communication Center (ACC). The center's vision is to provide an environment and an excellence center for research into the issues necessary to support next generation communication systems and to expand the graduate teaching and research program in the communication area. It is clear that these next generation communication systems will be based on highly integrated CMOS implementations, having the lowest possible energy consumption while using advanced communication and signal processing algorithms and advanced networking techniques. Thus, the ACC must promote an interdisciplinary research in the communication area.

The ACC will also try to leverage the prestige and high-level research that is currently done in certain areas - such as communication theory and signal processing - to support and establish a similar level in the analog and RF segments that require enhancement.

The ACC has been established with a strong support of Intel Corporation - the industry founding partner. Intel has a strong presence in Israel that includes much of its activity in the communication area. Intel shares the center's vision and see the benefits of such a center to Intel and to the entire Israeli High-Tech industry.
