At the COST IC1004 meeting held in Lyon (3rd to 4th May 2012) a collaborative research activity under taken by members of the Communication Systems & Networks Group was presented to an international audience of industrialists and academics.
24 April 2012
Researchers from the Communication Systems & Networks (CSN) Group at the University of Bristol recently presented their work on radiowave propagation for Green Smart Environments at the Barcelona COST IC1004 Action meeting (Feb 2012). This forum addresses research issues in the field of cooperative radio communications to make our society cleaner, safer, and more energy efficient.

The Cryo-egg project, a collaborative research project between the Centre for Communications Research, Mechanical Engineering, Geography and Earth Sciences, is developing a means of transmitting data from under the earth's ice sheets. As part of this project, Dr Ben Lishman and the University of Bristol team ran field experiments on the Greenland ice sheet during August 2011, looking at signal propagation from radio transmitters lowered into holes in the ice sheet.
