Academic Staff
Dr. Adrian Wills
My research interests are in the areas of constrained optimisation problems as they occur in the fields of system identification, control, signal processing and telecommunications. My interests also include estimation of parameter values for mathematical models of dynamic systems using measurements of the systems input/output response.email:
Postgraduate Students
Alan Murray
Alan was awarded BEng (Comp) (Hons 1) and BCompSc Degrees as well as a GCertIC from the University of Newcastle in 2005 and 2007 respectively.
Previous to this, he completed an internship in the summer of 2003/2004 with the University of Newcastle working on a wireless communications testbed. In 2004 he was awarded the Agere Systems Australia and Australian Microelectronics Network's Undergraduate Award for Excellence in Microelectronics Design and Telecommunications Engineering which saw him complete a summer internship in 2004/2005 with the Agere Systems Sydney Design Office.
In 2005, Alan completed his honours project in conjunction with Agere Systems Australia. He has since been working on his PhD Thesis work on Microelectronics for Wireless Communications as part of the University of Newcastle Signal Processing Microelectronics group.

Ian Griffiths
I completed my undergradute studies in Computer Engineering in 2005. For my honours project I worked on implementing a 2x2 MIMO system using the Alamouti code on the first version of the testbed. I am currently investigating applications of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms to MIMO communications systems as part of my postgraduate studies.email:
Adam Mills
Graduated with a Bachelor of Engineering (Computer) in 2006. Honors project was an LDPC Codec for an AWGN on an FPGA. Current research MPC and VLSI implementation of algorithms.email:
