Overview
Background
A/Prof. Konstanty Bialkowski’s research interests lie in the area of wireless sensing, passive radar, communication systems, and signal processing, and specifically in the use of multiple antennas or sensors for communication, radar and imaging systems. In these fields, a software-defined-radio (SDR) is an extremely useful tool, allowing practical experimentation in specific areas like wireless sensing, biological applications, high reliability or high data rate communications and radio-frequency identification.
Some key contributions have been in the development of architectures to collect information from various sensors including RF, vibration and acoustic signals; as well as sensor algorithms for passive radar, where using multiple receivers is capable of resolving target location in 3D space, rather than just the range and Doppler; and showing that SDRs can be used to develop low cost biomedical imaging devices.
