The focus of research at CEWiT is on broadband wireless technologies. In particular, current research is targeted towards the 3GPP Rel-9 (and higher) and on the IEEE 802.16m standards. As part of this, following are some of the research topics that are being investigated:
-
High data-rate spatial multiplexing, space-time coding and space-frequency coding (SFC) schemes
-
Interference mitigation schemes for downlink and uplink in broadband systems
-
Reduction of PHY/MAC overheads to increase the throughput.
-
Peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction for uplink.
-
Flexible frequency reuse in wireless braodband systems
-
Advanced MIMO schemes for throughput improvement.
Besides research into PHY and MAC layers, CEWiT is also investigating issues at the higher layers, including:
-
End-to-end QoS in heterogeneous wireless networks
-
Efficient encoding schemes for SMS for Indian Languages
To support the Layer-1 and Layer-2 research, CEWiT is also developing a broadband wireless simulator BWSim which includes modules for both 3GPP and IEEE 802.16 standards.
