New Innovation Networks call: Faster, Stronger, More Secure: Advancing 5G capabilities and concepts for Defence and Security

In response to the rapid development and deployment of commercial 5G technologies, the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Armed Forces (DND/CAF) are seeking to stimulate the application of advances in technologies for 5G and beyond to defence and security problems.

IDEaS' newest Innovation Networks challenge Faster, Stronger, More Secure: Advancing 5G capabilities and concepts for Defence and Security aims to develop research clusters (called Micro-nets) to leverage existing work on commercial applications to address DND/CAF needs with applications for:


  • Architectures for Defence and Security Operations;
  • Assured Performance and Security;
  • Applications and Sensors.

Since 2018, IDEaS funded 12 micro-networks through the 1st and 2nd Call for Proposals (Advanced Material and Autonomous Systems), investing more than $18 million in research and development under this element alone. Funding is through a non-repayable contribution, with up to $1.5 million available per Micro-net over a three year research period.

The deadline to submit a letter of intent to the 5G micro-network is December 7, 2021. To learn more about the application process, visit our website.

Plus rapide, plus fort, plus sécurisé : avancer les capacités et les concepts 5G pour la défense et la sécurité

En réponse au développement et au déploiement rapides des technologies 5G commerciales, le ministère de la Défense nationale et les Forces armées canadiennes (MDN/FAC) cherchent à stimuler l'application des avancées technologiques pour la 5G et au-delà aux problèmes de défense et de sécurité.

Innovation Networks (1)Le plus récent défi des réseaux d'innovation Plus rapide, plus fort, plus sécurisé : avancer les capacités et les concepts 5G pour la défense et la sécurité vise à développer des groupes de recherche (appelées micro-réseaux) pour tirer parti des travaux existants sur les applications commerciales afin de répondre aux besoins du MDN/des FAC avec des applications pour :

• Architectures pour les opérations de défense et de sécurité ;

• Performance et sécurité assurées ;

• Applications et capteurs.

Depuis 2018, IDEeS a financé 12 micro-réseaux via les 1er et 2e appels de propositions (matériaux de pointe et systèmes autonomes), investissant plus de 18 millions de dollars en recherche et développement sur ce seul élément. Le financement est assuré par une contribution non remboursable, avec jusqu'à 1,5 million de dollars disponibles par micro-réseau sur une période de recherche de trois ans.

La date limite pour soumettre la lettre d'intention au défi d'innovation des micro-réseaux 5G est le 7 décembre 2021. Pour en savoir plus sur le processus de candidature, visitez notre site Web.

Webinaire sur les opportunités aérospatiales et spatiales en Australie pour les innovateurs canadiens

Le Conseil de l'aérospatiale de l'Ontario organise une séance d'information gratuite sur l'aérospatiale et l'espace qui détaillera les possibilités offertes aux innovateurs canadiens dans les secteurs de l'aérospatiale et de l'espace en Australie. Le webinaire est prévu pour le 15 novembre 2021 de 14 h 00 à 15 h 00 HNE. Pour en savoir plus et pour vous inscrire, veuillez visiter : https://theoac.ca/event/AerospaceInAustralia2021.

    Red Arrows rock Gatineau-Ottawa

    by Eric Dumigan Under blue skies, the team wowed thousands in a special one-day edition of Aero Gatineau-Ottawa. The Red Arrows, who last performed in North America more than a decade ago, are conducting an 11-week North American tour that “aims to promote the best of British and deepen partnerships with close friends and allies.” The contingent includes 108 people, 12 Red Arrows Hawk T1 aircraft and one Atlas A400M RAF transport aircraft. In their 55th season, the Red Arrows will travel coast to coast across North America, conducting aerobatic displays, flypasts and ground engagements. The Red Arrows use a mix of red, white and blue smoke during their performances to enhance visual presentation. Eric Dumigan Photo The team's leader, Martin Pert, leads the nine-plane formation in a series of manoeuvres with formations that salute the 50th anniversary of the Apollo mission; the Concorde, the world's only supersonic commercial aircraft; the Second World War Lancaster bomber; and the Tornado, a multi-roll strike aircraft that was retired from the RAF in 2019. The team uses red, white and blue smoke to enhance its visual presentation. The Red Arrows were formed in 1965 and have performed over 5,000 displays in 57 countries around the world. The Folland Gnat was replaced in 1980 with their current aircraft, the BAE Systems Hawk T1 trainer. The Hawk is a standard military two-seat advanced trainer with a tweaked engine to allow for faster response times. The Red Arrows performed a flypast in Halifax this past weekend and will perform in Toronto on Labour Day weekend, and in Victoria and Vancouver between September 24 and 27. Aero Gatineau-Ottawa will host a full airshow from Sept. 6 to 8, featuring the U.S. Air Force F-35 Lightning II Demo Team. https://www.skiesmag.com/news/red-arrows-rock-gatineau-ottawa/
