This project aims to develop theories and practical methods to design wireless communication systems for future generations of internet services. Emerging smart environments and infrastructure could solve major problems facing the world today, by saving energy, reducing pollution, improving health and increasing road safety. However, scientists to date do not know how to build wireless networks with almost zero latency and ultrahigh reliability, needed for machine-to-machine communications. An expected outcome of this project is new criteria and methodologies to design such wireless systems, which would affect future wireless systems and grids.Read moreRead less
Integrated Feedback Control in Future Wireless Communication Networks. The aim of this project is to develop and analyse new feedback control methods to address emerging challenges in future wireless communication networks such as 5G. This new generation of mobile communications promises exceptional bandwidth, high reliability and low link delay.

The aim of this project is to develop and analyse new feedback control methods to address emerging challenges in future wireless communication networks such as 5G. This new generation of mobile communications promises exceptional bandwidth, high reliability and low link delay. To achieve these leaps in performance, a paradigm shift to massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna systems, very high frequency systems and small cells is required. Critical feedback loops in areas such as narrow 3D beam steering for mobile users, control of multiflow systems must be developed to enable 5G communications to be successfully deployed. This new generation of communications is also expected to open up new control application domains, such as the use of vehicle-to-vehicle networks.Read moreRead less
Creating a smart city through internet of things. This project will deliver smart new ways of urban monitoring using ubiquitous sensing and data analysis for city management and sustainability. It will deliver researcher training, global clientele for local technology and a platform for local industry growth.
Communication networks for smart electricity grids. A smart grid will improve the efficiency of EnergyAustralia's electricity grid by minimizing cost and greenhouse gas emissions. A smart grid architecture will be researched and developed by using advanced communications and control engineering techniques offering significant economic, industrial, social and environmental benefits to Australia.
Sensing and Communications for Tactical Radio: Mapping the RF Weather. This project investigates sensing, localisation and communication strategies to improve the performance of modern tactical radio networks. Such networks face all of the well-known design challenges of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) but with added complication of a contested and adversarial operating environment. By exploiting the power of radio nodes to sense the radio spectrum, as well as to communicate over it, a distribut ....Sensing and Communications for Tactical Radio: Mapping the RF Weather. This project investigates sensing, localisation and communication strategies to improve the performance of modern tactical radio networks. Such networks face all of the well-known design challenges of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) but with added complication of a contested and adversarial operating environment. By exploiting the power of radio nodes to sense the radio spectrum, as well as to communicate over it, a distributed network of nodes can create a detailed picture of the surrounding radio-frequency (RF) environment: the nodes can work together to map the “RF weather”. In this project we will design advanced sensing and localisation methods to accurately map the RF spectrum, and then exploit this map in communication system design.Read moreRead less
Large-scale highly dynamic wireless networks: architecture and communication strategies design. This project will develop novel techniques for the modelling, design and management of highly dynamic networks, with wireless vehicular networks for autonomous vehicles being a typical but not sole example. Social and economical benefits are expected in the areas of road traffic management and road safety, communication and environment protection.
Scheduling and quality of service in Long Term Evolution telecommunications. There is an explosion of mobile telecommunications with over 50 billion connections expected by 2020. The next generation of mobile broadband will be based on a new technology known as Long Term Evolution (LTE) and, in this context, the goal of this project is to improve the efficiency of these systems by developing new techniques for scheduling.

Summary
Electronics of the future: self-powering wireless circuit design. The aim of this project is to build a foundation for ultra-low-power wireless circuit design using technologies other than silicon. Scaling of transistors in silicon has been pushed to its limit and is of marginal benefit for low-power wireless circuit design. This project aims to address these limits by developing energy-efficient technology for wireless applications.

The aim of this project is to build a foundation for ultra-low-power wireless circuit design using technologies other than silicon. Scaling of transistors in silicon has been pushed to its limit and is of marginal benefit for low-power wireless circuit design. This project aims to address these limits by developing energy-efficient technology for wireless applications. The intended outcome of this project will be a self-powered, high data rate receiver that will be critical in 5th-generation wireless systems. This could be used for a range of innovative wireless applications, for example in health care and environmental monitoring.Read moreRead less
Multiple-input, multiple-output short range optical communications: a broadband solution with virtually unlimited bandwidth. This project will develop new short range communications systems with virtually unlimited bandwidth and combine the speed of optical communications with the convenience of wireless. Applications range from rapid data download to portable devices such as smart phones, to communications within very high speed computers.
Design of network coding schemes for the next generation of wireless cellular systems. Network coding schemes are expected to become one of the key radio technologies and could have a far-reaching impact on the Australian economy. The proposed program will contribute to theory and development of network coding techniques and their application in future wireless networks.
