Funded Activity Summary

Multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) for optical wireless: a breakthrough solution to gaps in broadband delivery. Reliable, flexible broadband delivery is critical for Australian business and for the Australian community. This project will develop the technology on which a new generation of optical wireless communication systems will be based. By using optical rather than radio frequencies they will combine the data rates of optical with the mobility of wireless. They will fill many of the gaps in existing broadband delivery including providing a new flexible last-mile technology and an alternative form of local area network for indoor use. They will lead to new business opportunities within Australia and provide excellent research training in the field of OFDM, a field in which there is significant local R&D in Australian and multinational companies.
