Combinatorial structures for computer security and communication. Hadamard matrices in their various guises arise many times in the study of reliable communications and secure communications. The aim of this research project is to use the theory of cyclotomy in both fields and rings to find new number theoretic results which will then be used to obtain new with zero or small autocorrelation functions.

The aim of this research project is to use the theory of cyclotomy in both fields and rings to find new number theoretic results which will then be used to obtain new with zero or small autocorrelation functions.
The significance of this research is to propose new construction of Hadamard matrices and block designs for computer security and wireless network communication.
We expect some new classes of Hadamard matrices and block designs can be constructed for security and communication applications and several papers would be submitted or published.

In a world where electronic communication is ever-present, the security of electronic information, e-security, is an issue of the utmost concern for government, business and individuals alike. Public-key cryptography is a powerful tool in the e-security toolkit. Using this technology it is possible to confirm the identity of individuals, maintain the privacy of personal data and guarantee the authenticity of transactions.
The aim of this project is to design new public-key cryptography hardware to provide faster, more secure communications for computers, networks and smart cards. Achieving this will require innovations in the way computers perform arithmetic and how this arithmetic is realised as an integrated circuit.Read moreRead less

Space-Time Block Codes using Orthogonal, Amicable, and General Designs. Space-time coding for multiple transmit and multiple receive antennas is the enabling technology for future wireless communication systems. Multiple antennas provide independent transmission paths resulting in an increased channel capacity without requiring costly additional bandwidth. Space-time block codes lead to the simplest receiver structures and thus to the most economical solutions. The currently known codes are base ....Space-Time Block Codes using Orthogonal, Amicable, and General Designs. Space-time coding for multiple transmit and multiple receive antennas is the enabling technology for future wireless communication systems. Multiple antennas provide independent transmission paths resulting in an increased channel capacity without requiring costly additional bandwidth. Space-time block codes lead to the simplest receiver structures and thus to the most economical solutions. The currently known codes are based on the work of one of the CIs, but so far only a small part of that work has been utilised. We aim to fully exploit the potential of this theory and move the performance of wireless systems towards their theoretical limits.Read moreRead less
