Friday, 10.05.07, 9 - 5, Rm 4004, Calit2 Stochastic Network Optimization Michael J. Neely, USC This course presents a theory of stochastic network optimization for modern wireless networks with time varying channels, mobility, and randomly arriving traffic. We view the network as a queueing system with general transmission rate capabilities determined by the physical properties of each network element. Explicitly including queues in the model not only provides a more complete cross-layer perspective, but facilitates the design of opportunistic resource allocation, routing, and flow control decisions...more > | |||||||||
Friday, 11.17.06, 9:00 - 5:00, MPR, Calit2 Space-time coding Hamid Jafarkhani, UC Irvine This course covers the fundamental principles of space-time coding for wireless communications over multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels, and sets out practical coding methods for achieving the performance improvements predicted by the theory. Starting with background material on wireless communications and the capacity of MIMO channels, the course then reviews design criteria for space-time codes...more > | |||||||||
Monday, 09.25.06 - Tuesday, 09.26.06, 9-4:30 Monday and 9-12 Tuesday, Room TBD Modern coding theory Ruediger Urbanke, EPFL The advent of iterative coding schemes has had a large impact on the theory as well as the practice of coding. Most of the current standards include iterative coding schemes to either replace or enhance traditional coding solutions. The goal of this course is to study the fundamental concepts that underlie the idea of iterative coding: what makes them work, how can they be analyzed, and how can they be improved...more > | |||||||||
Thursday, 09.21.06 - Friday, 09.22.06, 9-4:30 Thursday and 9-12 Friday, Calit2 MPR Coding for wireless channels Ezio Biglieri, Universitat Pompeu Fabra This course will cover several topics related to coding for wireless communication, including: fading channel models: independent fading, block fading, MIMO; information-theoretic performance limits; coding on signal spaces; optimization criteria for code design; factor-graphical models of codes... | |||||||||
Tuesday, 08.01.06, 9AM - 5PM, Calit Auditorium Network coding Ralf Koetter, UIUC, and Muriel Medard, MIT The advent of network coding promises to change many aspects of networking. Network coding moves away from the classical approach of networking, which treats networks as akin to physical transportation systems... | |||||||||
Friday, 06.09.06 - Saturday, 06.10.06, 9-4:30 Friday and 9-12 Saturday, Calit Auditorium Fundamentals of wireless communications David Tse, U.C. Berkeley The past decade has seen a surge of research activities in the field of wireless communications. This is due to a confluence of factors: the explosive growth in demand for tetherless connectivity, dramatic improvement in hardware implementation technology, as well as the success of 2-G digital wireless standards. Emerging from this research thrust are new points of view on how to communicate effectively over wireless channels...more > | |||||||||
