The National Science Foundation Division of Information and Intelligent Systems awarded the University of Utah $120,260 on October 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop AI-enhanced reconfigurable terahertz CMOS transceiver panels for next-generation wireless communication systems. The collaborative research effort, which runs through September 30, 2029, and is performed in Salt Lake City, Utah, brings together investigators from the University of Washington, Texas A&M University, and the University of Utah to design scalable silicon bipolar CMOS transceiver panels operating in the 300 gigahertz frequency band. The system performs electronic beam steering through phased-array architecture to direct terahertz radio waves toward their destination. Artificial intelligence adjusts the system to compensate for adverse weather and countermeasures including eavesdropping and jamming. The research targets the underutilized terahertz portion of the electromagnetic spectrum to increase wireless communication capacity and speed while supporting security. The work includes training doctoral, undergraduate, and community-college students at the partner universities, development of a publicly available course on terahertz integrated systems, and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics outreach. Broader impacts include strengthening United States competitiveness in semiconductors and next-generation wireless communication, with applications to smart cities, intelligent transportation, and augmented reality.
