Iterative coding for next generation networks

对下一代电信网络的需求可以从IP语音(例如，Skype)、实时流媒体(例如，体育赛事实况转播)和下载电影(例如，iTunes音乐商店)的日益使用中推断出来。在这个数据丰富的环境中，有必要智能地利用网络本身。该项目汇集了纠错和网络编码的思想，以提供支撑下一代通信网络的技术。该项目以可实施的技术为重点，展示了项目成果对澳大利亚信息经济产生重大影响的潜力，催生了新的业务，改造了现有的行业，创造了新的就业机会。

The demands on next generation telecommunication networks can be extrapolated from the increasing use of Voice Over IP (e.g., Skype), real-time streaming media (e.g., live sporting events), and downloaded movies (e.g., the iTunes Music Store). In this data-rich environment, it is necessary to utilise the network itself intelligently. This project draws together ideas from error correction and network coding to provide the technologies that will underpin next generation communication networks. With a focus on implementable technologies, this project presents significant potential for project outcomes to impact the Australian information economy, spawning new businesses, transforming established industries, and creating new jobs.
