Overview
My research (and the research of my PhD students) is concerned with investigations of the fundamental problems in array processing and with the development of theoretical tools which are laying new foundations relating to both the analysis and synthesis of array techniques, algorithms and sensor-array system architectures. The applications are enormous. However, early in my career I realised that "array processing" has a major role to play in the development of future communication systems and thus I established the new group the "Array Communications" taking its theoretical foundation from Communication Theory and Information Theory blended with the experience and expertise in "Array Processing". Some of the specific topics being investigated by the Array Comms and Array Processing groups are as follows:
Array Communications
Arrayed Multicarrier MIMO Systems for 4G/5G Wireless Comms
Arrayed Wireless Sesnors Networks (A-WSNs)
Spatiotemporal Communications for 3G/4G/5G Wireless Comms
Array Processing Techniques for Mobile Positioning Problem
Inetgrated Vector-Channel Estimation and Multi-user Antenna Array Reception
Distortion Criteria and Performance Analysis of Antenna Array Comm Systems
Array Signal Processing
Array Manifold Investigation using Differential Geometry
Spatiotemporal Array (STAR) Manifolds
Array Calibration and Uncertainties
Superresolution Beamforming
Large Apertrure Array Systems
Near and Far Field Array Processing
Higher-order Signal Subspace Techniques
H-inf Robust Array Processing
Array Signal Abnormalities and Quality Factor
Array Design
Array Uncertainties and Array Calibration
