Wireless Communication and Network Sciences Laboratory (WGroup)

Principal Investigator Moe Win


The main research interests are the applications of mathematical and statistical theories to communication, detection, and estimation problems. General research topics include location-aware networks, measurement and modeling of time-varying channels, design and analysis of multiple antenna systems, ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB) systems, optical transmission systems, and space communications systems. It is our firm belief that theory should be always complemented by experiments, and we have an ongoing commitment to the development of a state-of-the-art experimental facility. In brief, our research combines

(1) theoretical analysis for determination of fundamental performance limits;

(2) the design of practical algorithms that approach such ultimate limits; and

(3) experimentation, both for validation and for developing realistic statistical models.

Professor Win and his students are interested in the applications of mathematical and statistical theories to communication, detection, and estimation problems. Their research encompasses developing fundamental theories, designing algorithms, and conducting experimentation for a broad range of real-world problems. Current research topics include location-aware networks, time-varying channels, multiple antenna systems, ultra-wide bandwidth systems, optical transmission systems, and space communications systems.
