Satellite Data Communications for Remote Sensing and Broadband Connectivity. The remote, distributed location of many of Australia's primary industries preclude the use of consumer-oriented terrestrial wireless broadband services. In many instances, satellite communications provides the only feasible means of connectivity for telemetry, supervisory control and data acquisition, tracking and fleet management. Meteorology, remote sensing, irrigation, mining, oil and gas exploration, and fisheries ....Satellite Data Communications for Remote Sensing and Broadband Connectivity. The remote, distributed location of many of Australia's primary industries preclude the use of consumer-oriented terrestrial wireless broadband services. In many instances, satellite communications provides the only feasible means of connectivity for telemetry, supervisory control and data acquisition, tracking and fleet management. Meteorology, remote sensing, irrigation, mining, oil and gas exploration, and fisheries are just a few examples of high-value applications of particular significance to Australia. This project will develop bandwidth efficient satellite communications technologies that greatly reduce cost and pave the way toward new market opportunities for broadband access and telemetry applications.

Summary
Achieving high-speed wireless communication networks through joint channel and network coding. This project will develop new coding techniques to increase the data transmission speed of wireless networks. The success of this project will enable a smooth migration from wired to wireless networks for applications that require high data speed like broadband Internet, high-definition video streaming, and health-monitoring system.
High Bandwidth Efficient Schemes for Portable Multimedia Communications. The introduction of multimedia services for mobile users has resulted in a shortage of satellite spectrum. Spot beam technology is used to provide service in areas of high user density. Adjacent overlapping beams are allocated different frequency bands, however interference from neighbouring beams limits capacity. Multi-User Detection is a technology capable of significantly increasing capacity by frequency re-use in adj ....High Bandwidth Efficient Schemes for Portable Multimedia Communications. The introduction of multimedia services for mobile users has resulted in a shortage of satellite spectrum. Spot beam technology is used to provide service in areas of high user density. Adjacent overlapping beams are allocated different frequency bands, however interference from neighbouring beams limits capacity. Multi-User Detection is a technology capable of significantly increasing capacity by frequency re-use in adjacent spot beams. The aim of this project is to investigate receiver design for multi-user spot-beam channels and develop associated synchronisation and channel estimation methods. The outcome will be efficient communications systems supporting higher user populations, without increasing the bandwidth required.Read moreRead less
Constant Envelope and Coded Modulation for Terrestrial and Satellite Radio. Modems for portable radio terminals must take advantage of state-of-the-art digital communications in order to stay commercially competitive. In particular they need to utilize less bandwidth and power for a fixed data rate. The approach here is to employ a parallel configuration of highly efficient error control codes, together with bandwidth efficient continuous phase modulation (CPM). The theoretical performance of su ....Constant Envelope and Coded Modulation for Terrestrial and Satellite Radio. Modems for portable radio terminals must take advantage of state-of-the-art digital communications in order to stay commercially competitive. In particular they need to utilize less bandwidth and power for a fixed data rate. The approach here is to employ a parallel configuration of highly efficient error control codes, together with bandwidth efficient continuous phase modulation (CPM). The theoretical performance of such a system is to be investigated using a novel information-theoretic technique, and the system will be optimised in terms of coding scheme and CPM complexity.Read moreRead less
