Network coding over finite rings. Wireless networks are increasing exponentially throughout the world, but are still plagued by delay, jitter, and interference. Advanced algebraic tools are the key to designing novel network coding and relaying schemes, which will overcome these issues and increase the network capacity in terms of sustainable data rates.
Taming uncertainty: a stochastic-geometric foundation for complex wireless networks. This project will improve our understanding of complex networks such as the internet, wireless communication networks and social networks. We will do this by properly studying the impact of the network geometry. The outcomes will be new approaches to managing complex networks to improve both efficiency and performance.
New modulation techniques for future high-mobility wireless communications. Future wireless networks will support huge amounts of mobile data traffic and numbers of terminals. To provide satisfactory service to emerging mass transportation systems such as self-driving cars, high-speed trains, and drones, it will be critical to incorporate the ability for wireless networks to function in high-mobility environments. The project aims to devise novel modulation techniques to support high-mobility co ....New modulation techniques for future high-mobility wireless communications. Future wireless networks will support huge amounts of mobile data traffic and numbers of terminals. To provide satisfactory service to emerging mass transportation systems such as self-driving cars, high-speed trains, and drones, it will be critical to incorporate the ability for wireless networks to function in high-mobility environments. The project aims to devise novel modulation techniques to support high-mobility communications with superior performance. The theoretical advances will be demonstrated using software-defined radios. These outcomes will provide fundamental scientific basis for deployment of future air interfaces. The project will benefit Australia in gaining a leading position in global telecommunications development.Read moreRead less

Summary
Structured Codes: Harnessing Interference to Improve Communication Networks. Interference occurs when a device involuntarily receives signals from unintended transmitters. Interference is the biggest challenge in modern large-scale communication networks. In contrast to conventional wisdom that avoids interference, this project aims to harness interference for its advantage. It will view interference as a form of computation that can be exploited advantageously using structured codes.

Interference is the biggest challenge in modern large-scale communication networks. In contrast to conventional wisdom that avoids interference, this project aims to harness interference for its advantage. It will view interference as a form of computation that can be exploited advantageously using structured codes. Developing theory and novel coding techniques, this project expects to deepen our understanding of interference, and significantly increase the network bandwidth efficiency. Expected outcomes will benefit a wide range of applications such as next-generation mobile systems, sensor networks, and cyber-physical systems.Read moreRead less
Advanced error control coding techniques for scalable blockchains. The project aims to investigate the application of error-control coding theory in blockchains, focusing on reducing the storage, computation, and communication overheads, as well as increasing the throughput of blockchain networks. The ambition is to develop coding theory in a completely new territory: decentralised, untrusted, and peer-to-peer networks. The intended outcome is to greatly extend the current state of the art of th ....Advanced error control coding techniques for scalable blockchains. The project aims to investigate the application of error-control coding theory in blockchains, focusing on reducing the storage, computation, and communication overheads, as well as increasing the throughput of blockchain networks. The ambition is to develop coding theory in a completely new territory: decentralised, untrusted, and peer-to-peer networks. The intended outcome is to greatly extend the current state of the art of the theory of error-control codes, previously investigated only in the context of centralised architectures, where a server coordinates every task. Practically, the project should provide significant benefits in terms of cost-effectiveness of blockchains, increase in their processing speed, and security enhancement. Read moreRead less
