Integrated Spectrometers for Spectral Tissue Sensing (InSPECT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
Image-guided needle procedures - such as taking biopsies in screening cancerous tumours - are becoming increasingly important in clinical practice. Today, physicians are severely hampered by the lack of precision in positioning the needle tip. Real-time tissue-characterization feedback at the needle tip during these procedures can significantly improve the outcome of diagnosis and treatment, and r ...

Adaptive Software Defined Terabit Transceiver \nfor Flexible Optical Networks (ASTRON)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
ASTRON aims at the development of high-capacity, energy-efficient and bit-rate flexible optical transceivers capable of supporting rates from 10Gb/s to beyond 1Tb/s. The ASTRON concept is based on developing multi-functional and agile devices so as to achieve Terabit capacities on a single photonic integrated chip. ASTRON's transceiver can realize different techniques of flexible super-channel ge ...

GIGA BIT ACCESS PASSIVE OPTICAL NETWORK USING WAVELENGTH DIVISION MULTIPLEXING (GigaWaM)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
The need for higher speed is a never ceasing requirement for broadband access and requirement of 1 Gbps is expected around 2016. The copper lines are expected to reach their maximum capacity at about 10 Mbps while the capacity required only for watching one channel of HDTV is 20 Mbps.Tithe total number of homes connected to fibres will grow from about 11 million at the end of 2006 to about 86 mill ...
