SU Communication Lab

The Communication Laboratory in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of Syracuse University is a research group with a primary focus on statistical signal processing, communication and information theory. Major applications that are of current interest include:

  • Decentralized inference and information fusion
  • Interference channels
  • MIMO communication with airborne platforms
  • Software radio design

Research Assistant Positions

We are looking for Ph.D. students in 1) statistical inference; and 2) wireless communications. Motivated candidates with strong mathematical background are encouraged to send in their CV and transcripts to bichen@syr.edu. Note that due to the large volume of emails, only inquiries that deemed promising will get a response.
