• Novel concepts, theories and technologies of mobile information networks: Facing the needs of mobile communication applications in 2020-2035, relying on the deep integration of information, communication, and data technology (ICDT, Information, Communication, and Data Technology), research on the fifth generation/ The sixth-generation mobile communication (5G/6G) network architecture, efficient networking theory and technology.
• The basic theory, network architecture and key technologies of open source wireless cooperation: First, break the closed mobile communication network architecture centered on dedicated hardware; Relying on general hardware, build a mobile information network centered on open source software. Then, build a wireless network defined by open source software based on an open network architecture; Open wireless capability is realized through deep decoupling and flexible reconfiguration of network.
• Sky-to-ground integrated network: the theory of networking and transmission for effective integration of ground-based mobile communication networks with air-based and space-based networks.
