New channel estimation, tracking and equalization algorithms for real-time high-speed underwater acoustic communication systems. High-speed underwater communication is vitally important for Australian offshore oil and gas industries, marine commercial operations, and defence applications. However, due to the challenges posed by the harsh underwater channel, current underwater communication systems have significant limitations on data rate and bit-error-rate for many applications and environments ....New channel estimation, tracking and equalization algorithms for real-time high-speed underwater acoustic communication systems. High-speed underwater communication is vitally important for Australian offshore oil and gas industries, marine commercial operations, and defence applications. However, due to the challenges posed by the harsh underwater channel, current underwater communication systems have significant limitations on data rate and bit-error-rate for many applications and environments. This project aims to develop a real-time signal processing platform for reliable high-speed communication through the extremely bandlimited and reverberant underwater acoustic channel. New channel estimation, tracking and equalisation algorithms developed in this project will significantly enhance the capacity of underwater communication systems.Read moreRead less
Increasing the range and rate of underwater acoustic communication systems using multi-hop relay. Australia has a very long coastline, thus it is vitally important for Australia to efficiently explore and exploit the rich resources in the ocean. This project develops novel communication technologies for long-range and high-rate underwater acoustic communications that are crucial to Australian ocean-related industries and defence applications.

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.
