Summary on Grant Application Form |
The proposer has recently shown that significant capacity enhancements are possible in cellular and other radio communications systems by the use of appropriate FEC coding and coded modulation, adapted to the channel conditions, and in particular to the co-channel interference level. He has also shown that significant improvements in coding gain (and hence capacity) are possible by optimising the scheme for specific service requirements (such as BER) as well as for channel conditions. The proposed research will use this methodology, together with a range of new techniques, to find new codes optimised for future radio communication systems, including personal communications, optimising for interference, BER and delay requirement, fading conditions and dispersion. It will also consider and further develop reduced complexity (near maximum likelihood) decoder structures, and extend the optimisation methodology to include their effect on code performance, so as to generate codes optimised for a given bounded complexity decoder.
