Decimetre-level indoor positioning on Wi-Fi. This project aims to exploit both spatial and frequency diversities based on the multiple-input, multiple-out and frequency hopping techniques to achieve the goal of decimetre-level position accuracy by significantly increasing Wi-Fi bandwidth. Wi-Fi positioning is utilised in locations where GPS is blocked, typically this is within a structure. The project will design a set of mechanisms to facilitate Wi-Fi positioning, discover key principles to gui ....Decimetre-level indoor positioning on Wi-Fi. This project aims to exploit both spatial and frequency diversities based on the multiple-input, multiple-out and frequency hopping techniques to achieve the goal of decimetre-level position accuracy by significantly increasing Wi-Fi bandwidth. Wi-Fi positioning is utilised in locations where GPS is blocked, typically this is within a structure. The project will design a set of mechanisms to facilitate Wi-Fi positioning, discover key principles to guide practical design, and develop advanced algorithms to push the performance limit to decimetre-level accuracy. The project will develop key fundamental technologies which are expected to promote innovative, practical, and cost-effective applications to local industry and service sectors and contribute to Australia's long-term economic growth.Read moreRead less
Managing private location data in a mobile and networked world: getting the balance right. Location based data are transforming the mobile service industry and this project will develop novel approaches to safeguard the location privacy of mobile individuals. This will facilitate the development of privacy-aware services which can be used for real time traffic monitoring, care for the elderly and smartphone enabled location services.

Summary
Structured Codes: Harnessing Interference to Improve Communication Networks. Interference occurs when a device involuntarily receives signals from unintended transmitters. Interference is the biggest challenge in modern large-scale communication networks. In contrast to conventional wisdom that avoids interference, this project aims to harness interference for its advantage. It will view interference as a form of computation that can be exploited advantageously using structured codes. Developing ....Structured Codes: Harnessing Interference to Improve Communication Networks. Interference occurs when a device involuntarily receives signals from unintended transmitters. Interference is the biggest challenge in modern large-scale communication networks. In contrast to conventional wisdom that avoids interference, this project aims to harness interference for its advantage. It will view interference as a form of computation that can be exploited advantageously using structured codes. Developing theory and novel coding techniques, this project expects to deepen our understanding of interference, and significantly increase the network bandwidth efficiency. Expected outcomes will benefit a wide range of applications such as next-generation mobile systems, sensor networks, and cyber-physical systems.Read moreRead less
