The unprecedented expansion of wireline and wireless networks has resulted in a tremendous increase in energy consumption and left a significant environmental footprint.
The use of low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) has gained significant research interest because it addresses practical problems and scalability issues in 5G core technologies (including massive MIMO, mmWave communication, Internet-of-Things) such as massive data processing, high power consumption, and cost.
This PhD project forms part of a cluster collaboration between the University of Toronto and the University of Melbourne titled Communication and Computation: Two sides of one tapestry.
The goals of this project are to:
