Foundations for future wireless networks. Most of us have first-hand experience with temperamental wireless communications devices that don't meet our expectations. This project will deliver new technologies that enable lower costs, through more efficient use of radio spectrum. It will deliver more reliable and higher speed wireless broadband with better coverage, even to highly mobile users.

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.
Optimising throughput and Delay in network coded systems. This project addresses one main disadvantage of network coding: decoding delay. By solving this issue, we will unlock the true potential of network coding: delivery of high data rates in wireless and wireline networks. This will make network coding an attractive choice for live video streaming and mission-critical delay-sensitive applications.
Compression of distributed data: bridging the gap between theory and practice. In bushfire and tsunami early warning systems, environmental monitoring and healthcare applications, distributed sensors collect and transmit correlated data. This project will design novel data compression algorithms that exploit this correlation to dramatically increase the performance of existing networks and enable new applications.
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.

Inter-user interference is becoming the dominant bottleneck in state-of-the-art wireless networks. This project aims to address this bottleneck problem by studying a new paradigm, referred to as a Distributed-Input Distributed-Output (DIDO) wireless system, which makes the best use of interference. Results from information theory and modern coding techniques will be advanced to develop new design principles and novel physical-layer coding techniques of DIDO systems, leading to substantially improved throughput, reliability, energy efficiency and robustness. This project aims to develop fundamentally enhanced wireless infrastructure with targeted applications in cellular and wireless networks, satellite communications and wireless sensor networks.Read moreRead less
