Track 4: 1st Signal Processing for Wireless Communications (SPWC) 2008
Signal processing is crucial to the development and realization of the state-of-the-art wireless technologies. The track of SPWC aims to bring together leading wireless communication researchers and experts from industry, academia, regulatory and standardization bodies willing to identify and discuss the most recent advances and the future technical challenges arising by the emerging wireless technologies. The SPWC consists of, but are not restricted, the following topics:
- Modulation, coding and synchronization
- Detection and estimation
- Space-time coding and processing
- Wireless channel capacity and information theory
- Propagation, antennas and channel characterization
- Diversity techniques and equalization
- Signal separation and interference rejection
- Multirate and multicarrier communications
- Multiple access techniques, OFDMA, TDMA and CDMA technologies and systems
- DSP applications to wireless systems
- Location estimation and tracking
- Ultra-wideband communications (UWB)
- Power control and allocation algorithms
- Multimedia communications
- Personal communications
- Satellite communications
- Broadband wireless communications
