Novel Architecture for Next Generation Wireless Relay Networks

Funding: 2009: $80,683
2010: $100,914

Project Member(s): Abolhasan, M.

Funding or Partner Organisation: Australian Research Council (ARC Discovery Projects)

Start year: 2010

Summary: The proposed project will provide a diverse range of benefits for the nation, by providing future solutions to address a number of key telecommunication networking requirements in Australia. One such area is the provision of broadband connectivity to rural and remote regions of Australia. It is well known, that wireless relay networks could potentially provide low-cost networking infrastructure for rural and remote communities. The solutions developed in the project will enable a wider deployment of such networks, as they would increase the capacity of these networks both in terms of bandwidth and their coverage. This is a major benefit to Australia, due to our large desert land-mass and sparsely populated remote and rural communities.
