It will also expand the tool sets of control engineering with innovative multisensory control designs. We see major benefits for Australia arising from this project both by enhancing its scientific reputation and by promoting technological advances in its industries and services. The project has potential to contribute to the National Research Priority area: Frontier Technologies for Building and Transforming Australian Industries, since it has direct impact on the relevant areas of biotechnology, information, communication technology, nanotechnology and sensor technology.Read moreRead less
The Interplay of Feedback Control and Digital Communications. This project deals with two research topics in digital communications and control. The first is concerned with feedback communications for control systems, aiming to develop new design methods for network-based automation and control. The second studies new decoding and detection algorithms for digital communications. Applications of the proposed research work include network-based industrial control, wireless communication devices, a ....The Interplay of Feedback Control and Digital Communications. This project deals with two research topics in digital communications and control. The first is concerned with feedback communications for control systems, aiming to develop new design methods for network-based automation and control. The second studies new decoding and detection algorithms for digital communications. Applications of the proposed research work include network-based industrial control, wireless communication devices, and high density digital storage media. The cross-fertilisation of control systems and digital communications will help strengthen Australia's research expertise in the National Research Priority area "Information and Communications Technology" (ICT).

Design of Quantized Feedback for Robust Control Systems. Most modern machineries and industrial processes are manipulated using advanced control technologies. With the recent advances in information technology, more and more control systems operate over communications networks. However, the technologies used in these control systems are seriously lagging behind because they make little assumptions about problems in digital communications. These problems include sampling errors, quantization erro ....Design of Quantized Feedback for Robust Control Systems. Most modern machineries and industrial processes are manipulated using advanced control technologies. With the recent advances in information technology, more and more control systems operate over communications networks. However, the technologies used in these control systems are seriously lagging behind because they make little assumptions about problems in digital communications. These problems include sampling errors, quantization errors, transmission errors and transmission delays. The proposed research will develop a new control theory to address this issue. Our work will help Australia maintain a leading role in the area of control and give the Australian industry advantages in applying modern technologies in control and automation.Read moreRead less
