The fast development of wireless broadband communications resulted in a greater demand for radio spectrum and the development of new technologies to cope with the increasing demand for broadband services. It is important for Malaysia to strengthen its R&D activities on emerging technologies and to provide the funds for these R&D activities.

 Some of these emerging technologies are:

 ·           Cognitive Radio

·            High Altitude Platform System (HAPS)

·            Software Defined Radio (SDR)

·            Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radio

 The list is limitless, since new technologies emerge from many parts of the world continuously. The research should focus on the technology’s applicability for use in Malaysia, as well as its reliability/QoS upon its implementation.

 These topics are being discussed in the Forum, including its definitions from various sources and all matter related to the specific requirement of its implementation in the country. Any new suggestions for new topics are also welcomed here.

 In the future, all research papers will be made available here, including paper from the Lecture Series. Please check often as page is updated regularly.
