CISE Research Resources: Instrumentation for Communications Research in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networking

普渡大学欧洲经委会和土木工程学院将购买射频测试设备(网络分析仪、空中接口测量工具和射频信道仿真器)、工作站、蓝牙开发套件、笔记本电脑以及辅助电子和接口用品，以增强无线通信研究实验室和哈罗德·L·迈克尔交通运营实验室在无线通信实验研究和智能交通系统领域的能力。上述资源的可获得性将直接促进四个研究项目：1)用于智能交通系统的专用短程通信的无线自组织网络，2)用于连续相位调制的低复杂度接收器，3)用于高速无线通信的降维判决反馈均衡器，以及4)用于智能交通系统的嵌入式信号处理。上述项目涉及的通信研究集中在同步、信道估计和均衡以及用于线性和非线性调制的低复杂度接收器。还考虑了端到端网络性能，以及用于自组织网络的简化协议的设计。信号处理研究在很大程度上是实验性的，涉及不同智能交通子系统的集成，包括通信和用于交通信号控制和动态称重的嵌入式信号处理。

EIA-0130599 James KrogmeierPurdue UniversityCISE Research Resources: Instrumentation for Communications Research in Wireless Ad-Hoc NetworkingThe Schools of ECE and Civil Engineering at Purdue University will purchase radio frequency test equipment (a network analyzer, an air-interface measurement tool, and radio frequency channel emulators), workstations, Bluetooth Developer's Kits, laptops, and supporting electronic and interface supplies to enhance the capabilities of the Wireless Communications Research Laboratory and the Harold L. Michael Traffic Operations Laboratory in the area of experimental wireless communications research and intelligent transportation systems. Four research projects will be directly enhanced by the availability of the above resources: 1) Wireless ad-hoc networking for dedicated short range communications applications in intelligent transportation systems, 2) Reduced complexity receivers for continuous phase modulations, 3) Reduced-dimension decision feedback equalizers for high-speed wireless communications, and 4) Embedded signal processing for intelligent transportation systems.The communications research involved in the projects above is focused on synchronization, channel estimation and equalization, and low complexity receivers for both linear and non-linear modulations. End-to-end network performance is also considered, as is the design of simplified protocols for use in ad-hoc networking. The signal processing research is largely experimental involving the integration of different intelligent transportation subsystems including communications and embedded signal processing for traffic signal control and weigh-in-motion.
