Communications and Signal Processing
This area includes research development in signal, image, and speech processing; radar detection; estimation; and communication theory. Research efforts, sponsored by the DoD, NASA, TI, ARPA, and the Linguistic Data Consortium, include:
Analysis of the NASA TDRSS Downlink
conducts performance studies of alternate coding schemes
to more efficiently combat the types of errors known to exist
Coding for High-Speed Digital Communications
develops efficient coding schemes for wireless digital communication applications
Adaptive FSK/PSK Radar
studies a spectrally agile pulse compression radar that learns
target-specific information over time and integrates the
information into the generation of radar signals in real-time.
A Sun SPARCstation-Based Data Collection Platform
develops a Unix-based platform for speech data collection based on
an open-architecture design
Software Development for Bandwidth Correction of Waveforms measured with Band-Limited Instruments
develops data enhancement techniques for transient measurements
that have the capability to extract usable waveforms resulting in
greater productivity and lower research cost
Acoustic Monitoring of Global Ocean Climate
conducts research visualization of ocean models and acoustic propagation paths
