OVERVIEW
The Graduate School of Information Science and Electrical Engineering (ISEE) consists of the Department of Information Science and Technology and the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now regarded as the cutting-edge information technology that enables innovations and is propelling our society towards more convenient, more efficient, safer, and a more sustainable world. AI alone, however, cannot achieve this. As in ‘Society5.0’, many data are measured by sensors, locally processed by ‘edge computing’, transferred through wireless communication networks, and analyzed by AI. Then, judgment and decisions are made, and executed by actuators and sometimes by humans. These require advanced theories, sophisticated software and high-performance hardware for communication, information processing, and their applications, together with efficient and reliable electrical power supply. The Graduate School of ISEE covers all of these theories and technologies. Students can learn many of them while focusing on their selected specialties. Also, the graduate school has strong connections with other graduate schools in the University. Some faculty members participate in education at the Graduate Schools of Systems Life Sciences, Integrated Frontier Sciences, and Mathematics for Innovation. Moreover, 35% of our students are international students. In this interdisciplinary and international atmosphere, students learn the theories and applications, and conduct research in the field of ISEE.
Student’s Voice
- What is your research about?
- With the exponential growth of the data traffic in wireless communication systems, the high-frequency band is envisioned as a promising candidate to support ultra- high speed for the future beyond fifth-generation (5G). With that fact, our team is currently working with photonic technology to generate high-frequency electromagnetic waves. This method eventually generates a high-frequency carrier which is ten times higher than the current 5G wireless carrier frequency. We are using a photoelectronic conversion device to achieve this high-frequency electromagnetic wave. Not only that, but we are also working on controlling this high-frequency electromagnetic wave. Our controlling technique utilizes lightwave technology which has developed in optical fiber communication. We apply this technology to ensure the stability of the high-frequency electromagnetic wave by controlling the property of the lightwave. Specially, we are using a light interferometer to stabilize the lightwave for generating a stable high-frequency electromaganetic wave for the promissing beyond 5G wireless communication system.
- What is an advantage of Kyushu University?
- People might think being a Muslim in a Non-Muslim majority country might be challenging. However, as a Muslim woman, I found the environment at Kyushu University is conducive and favorable. Delicious halal food is being sold in almost all the cafeteria and convenience stores around the campus. The praying room is also available at every level in my building. In a nutshell, Kyushu University is a ‘Muslim-friendly’ study place.
