Communication Research Laboratory
The Communications Research Laboratory at RPI
is primarily concerned with the theoretical development and practical implementation
of Spread Spectrum Communication Systems. Under the guidance of Professor
Gary Saulnier,
the lab applies advanced signal processing techniques to spread spectrum
systems in the following areas:
-
Jammer and Interference Excision.
-
Transform Domain (e.g. Fourier, Wavelet, etc.) interference suppression.
-
Adaptive Correlation and Filtering.
-
Multirate Filter Bank Analysis of Spread Spectrum Signals.
-
Spread Spectrum Waveform Design.
The CRL Lab is also involved in the areas of Mobile Communications and
Digital Cellular Radio:
-
Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) for Wireless Communications
-
Wideband Multichannel DSP Receivers
-
Base Station Architecture
In addition to theoretical studies and formulations, the Communications
Research Lab often extends the research to actual implementation and prototyping
of the systems. These systems include:
-
An Adaptive Correlator Receiver Using Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) devices.
-
An LMS Adaptive Filter for Narrowband Interference Suppression.
