2004 IEEE International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications Sydney, Australia 30 August - 2 September, 2004 Wideband Signal Processing - Taking Spectrum into the Future

The 2004 IEEE International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications will be held in Sydney, Australia, from Monday, 30 August, through Thursday, 2 September, 2004. ISSSTA 2004 will highlight theoretical performance of existing and future systems, as well as novel applications and implementations of spread spectrum technology. MIMO systems and Ultra wideband will join the list of topics which will include

Theory

Applications

Information theory of SS, MIMO channels Performance bounds, capacity limits SS signal processing including ultra wideband Sequence and waveform design Signal acquisition and tracking Coding and modulation for SS and multi-user systems Information security LPI, LPD Receivers and diversity techniques Space-Time coding for SS systems Adaptive equalization, channel estimation and SS signal detection Interference suppression and Cancellation Multiple access techniques and capacity analysis Antenna arrays, multi-sensor channels Remote sensing, radar, sonar and positioning system performance Multicarrier CDMA
