Brief Description of Research Areas
The Wireless Systems Innovations Lab is the name for Professor Robert W. Heath Jr's research group. In January 2024, the group is moving from North Carolina State University to the University of California at San Diego (after moving from UT Austin in 2020). The group has collaborative extensively with industry in the past and has graduated 49 Ph.D. students. Current research areas including all aspects of MIMO wireless communications including large arrays, near-field communications, reconfigurable antennas, beam codebook design, metasurface antennas, low resolution MIMO communications and machine learning for beam training and beam tracking. The group is also doing exploratory work on radio-over-fiber for MIMO fronthaul and on quantum communications and sensing.
