The Emerging Networks Laboratory (ENL) Research Division focuses its research efforts on communication networks: how they are designed, configured and used. Recent advances in wireless networking have enabled unprecedented data rates and reliable connectivity. These advances are currently being rolled out in 5G deployments. Emerging applications like autonomous driving or mixed reality will pose significant research challenges for networking beyond 5G. ENL members build physical and link-layer models, configure networks to use resources more effectively while responding to failures, develop resource allocation models covering networking from the centre to the edge and devise protocols to protect the security of the data and privacy of its owners.
