Radio and Optical Communication Lab Overview
The Optical Communications Lab in Dublin City University was established in 1998. Upon the formation of the Rince Institute in 1999, the Optical Communications Lab and the Radio Lab merged to form the Radio and Optical Communications Group. This group now forms one of the main research laboratories within the Rince Institute.
The main goal of the Radio and Optical Communications Group is to focus on the design, simulation and demonstration of new technolgies for future broadband photonic communication systems.
