Signal Processing for Reconfigurable Antennas – a Multidisciplinary Approach for Next Generation Wireless Communications. To satisfy the enormous demand for wireless applications with scarce radio spectrum, new technologies must be researched, developed, and then employed. Reconfigurable antennas, through morphing their physical structures with various switches, can adapt to the radio propagation environment, thereby increasing spectrum efficiency and power efficiency of wireless communications. ....Signal Processing for Reconfigurable Antennas – a Multidisciplinary Approach for Next Generation Wireless Communications. To satisfy the enormous demand for wireless applications with scarce radio spectrum, new technologies must be researched, developed, and then employed. Reconfigurable antennas, through morphing their physical structures with various switches, can adapt to the radio propagation environment, thereby increasing spectrum efficiency and power efficiency of wireless communications. This project aims to design signal processing algorithms for achieving all the benefits that reconfigurable antennas can provide for wireless communications. An important outcome of this research is sound channel models validated by extensive field measurement data.Read moreRead less

Blind separation of mutually correlated sources. This project is aimed at developing novel techniques for blind separation of mutually correlated sources. The expected outcomes will significantly advance the theory of blind source separation and improve the performance of important practical systems, such as densely deployed sensor networks and wireless video surveillance systems.
Optimisation of base station beamforming for wireless broadband internet services in rural areas. The NBN aims to deliver 100 Mbps to Australians in major cities but much lower speeds to rural areas. A key outcome of the project is a sound foundation for the design of antenna arrays and beamformers to enable cost effective and efficient wireless internet services for rural areas and meet a challenge of national importance.
