Welcome to the website of the WUN Cognitive Communications Consortium. The Consortium of currently over 65 academic institutions and industrial members, from Europe, North America, Asia and Australasia, was established at the end of 2008.

The Consortium aims to play a leading role in Cognitive Communications research through global collaboration.

Cognitive communications promises to revolutionise the way wireless communication devices and networks behave through ‘intelligent’ assignment of resources and operation.

Cognitive communications requires a multi-disciplinary approach, bringing together the established areas of:

• Wireless communications
  
• Distributed artificial intelligence
  
• Electromagnetics
  
• Regulatory policy and economics
  
• Implementation
