学术报告会通知 题 目:Cooperative Networks: Theory, Principles, and Protocols 报 告 人： Dr .Maged Elkashlan 时 间： 2012年3月19日（周一）上午10:00~11:30 地 点： 东南大学(四牌楼校区) 李文正楼6楼 614会议室 主 办： 东南大学毫米波国家重点实验室 IEEE AP-MTT-EMC Joint Nanjing Chapter 江苏省电子学会天线与微波专委会 内容简介： Resource allocation is critical in future wireless networks. To be more specific, the amount of resources available for each individual user drops with the number of users sharing the network. Whether resources are shared amongst users, such as space or spectrum, or are local to a user, such as energy, the challenge is how to allocate and use the resources in a distributed and collaborative fashion. The goal of this tutorial is therefore, to address limitations and to find low-cost solutions to current and future wireless networks in regards to their energy consumption and their capability to increase network availability and connectivity. Indeed, to meet the goal of low-cost radio networks, the concept based on network cooperation has emerged as a promising energy-efficient solution that deals with stringent requirements and scarcity of radio resources. Cooperative communication allows multiple distributed nodes to create a virtual antenna array, and hence achieves a distributed form of spatial diversity, called cooperative diversity. This talk will be followed by a brief overview and description of the Networks Research Group at Queen Mary and the MSc Programmes offered by the Networks Research Group. 报告人简介： Maged Elkashlan received the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of British Columbia, Canada, in 2006. From 2006 to 2007, he was with the Laboratory for Advanced Networking at the University of British Columbia. From 2007 to 2011, he was with the Wireless and Networking Technologies Laboratory at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Australia. In 2011, he joined the School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science at Queen Mary, University of London, United Kingdom. His general research interests span the area of communications theory and signal processing, with special emphasis on resource allocation in distributed wireless networks. Specific research interests include cooperative wireless networks, MIMO, cognitive radio, and physical layer security. |
