Summary
Low-complexity factor-graph-based receiver design for bandwidth-efficient communication systems over doubly selective channels. This project aims to solve challenging problems in future wireless communications using graph-based signal processing techniques. It will provide practical solutions for future broadband mobile communications to the bush and high-speed underwater acoustic communications in the oceans that are particularly important to Australia.
Iterative subspace expansions for space-time adaptive wireless communications, radar and sonar. This project addresses the fundamental challenge of high receiver complexity for bandwidth-efficient, high data-rate wireless communications, radar and sonar. We do this by designing the signal transmissions so that smart receivers can detect the signals in "warp speed". We expect these results to have an immediate impact on the design of next generation communications technologies.

Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has been recognised by the Australian Government as a National Research Priority. This research project will contribute to the intellectual property in ICT held by Australia, and help supply Australian industries with the knowledge necessary to participate in the development of frontier technologies.Read moreRead less
Beamforming with acoustic vector sensors for audio user interfaces. We aim to create new Audio User Interfaces (AUIs) for the automatic separation and annotation of audio from complex sound scenes using acoustic vector sensor beamforming technology. Specifically, we will develop: speech AUIs for noisy, multi-talker, reverberant environments; and sound transcription AUIs for the deaf. Ultimately, users will be able to walk into a room, hold conversations and leave with a searchable, automatically ....Beamforming with acoustic vector sensors for audio user interfaces. We aim to create new Audio User Interfaces (AUIs) for the automatic separation and annotation of audio from complex sound scenes using acoustic vector sensor beamforming technology. Specifically, we will develop: speech AUIs for noisy, multi-talker, reverberant environments; and sound transcription AUIs for the deaf. Ultimately, users will be able to walk into a room, hold conversations and leave with a searchable, automatically-generated transcript of the audio events, tagged with metadata. The application of these technologies will create new possibilities for recording audio in the music, radio, TV industries, and future home based audio communication systems.Read moreRead less

Summary
Next generation acoustic sensor arrays for super resolution imaging. This project aims to develop a new type of acoustic lens that enhances incoherent sensing. This compressive acoustic sensing approach will achieve super-resolution imaging that is robust to noise. The technology has diverse applications including medical imaging, petroleum prospecting, sonar and acoustic holography and will lead to new technology for Australia.
