The National Science Foundation Division of Information and Intelligent Systems awarded the University of Miami $148,334 on October 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop wireless networking techniques for connected autonomous mobile systems such as drones and robots. The project, titled "FieldAware: AI Native Hybrid-Field Networking for Connected Autonomous Systems," addresses communication performance in environments where autonomous systems transition between near-field and far-field signal propagation regions. The work spans three technical thrusts: field recognition and link establishment techniques including near-field and far-field boundary characterization, hybrid-field beam-training, wideband beamforming, and integrated sensing and communication for object detection; AI-native network control and resource management using distributed machine learning to automate field recognition, trajectory design, beam alignment, resource allocation, and spectrum decisions; and integration and evaluation through simulations and testbed experiments. The project includes graduate and undergraduate student training in wireless systems, AI for networking and sensing, and hands-on experimentation. Performance occurs in South Miami, Florida, with a period of performance from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2029.
