2. Communications Theory

Sponsoring TCs:Communication Theory TC
Wireless Communications TC
 
Chairs:Aylin Yener, Pennsylvania State University (USA)
Lutz Lampe, University of British Columbia (Canada)
Angela Yingjun Zhang, Chinese University of Hong Kong (China)

The Communication Theory Symposium aims to provide the audience of ICC with the state of the art research towards understanding the fundamentals of communication systems including that of wireless, mobile and wire-line communication systems. The symposium welcomes original research in the general areas of wireless and wire-line communication theory, with focus on physical-layer as well as certain higher-layer issues including source coding, modulation, channel coding, detection and estimation, joint source-channel coding, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, optical communication, cooperative communications, signal processing as applied to ad-hoc and sensor networks, information theory for mobile ad hoc networks, networked cognitive radios, advanced multiple access strategies, network information theory, and network coding. Research results on communication theory that impact other disciplines such as networking, genetics, bioinformatics, and quantum information processing are also encouraged.
