Closing the Gap: Fundamental Capacity Limits for Interfering Wireless Networks and Practical Methods to Get There

加强通信网络以实现宽带数据速率现在是国家优先事项。无线通信非常重要，移动电话、无线计算机和家庭无线互联网接入都是快速增长的领域。该项目解决了无线网络中链路间干扰的根本瓶颈问题。无线拔掉用户的插头，并允许他/她漫游，并与其他用户建立自组织网络。因此，这项研究将有助于澳大利亚提高生产率。同样重要的是，这个项目涉及基础研究；它将增加澳大利亚的知识库，并为学生和研究人员提供如何思考通信问题的培训。

Enhancing communication networks to achieve broadband data rates is now a national priority. Wireless communications is hugely important, with mobile phones, wireless computers, and wireless Internet access to homes, all rapidly growing areas. This project addresses the fundamental bottleneck of interference between links in wireless networks. Wireless unplugs the user and allows him/her to roam, and to set up ad-hoc networks with other users. This research will thus contribute to Australia's increased productivity. Just as importantly, this project addresses fundamental research; it will increase Australia's knowledge base and provide training for students and researchers in how to think about communications problems.
