International Workshop on Channel Coding and Cooperation in Wireless CommunicationsJune 10-12, 2009, in conjunction with ICT Mobile Summit 2009, Santander, SpainThe main objective of this one-day Workshop is just to attract all those people, as well as researchers from the non-EC-projects-related scientific community to build a temporary forum at the European level and give an opportunity for a thorough coordinated discussion. At a first glance the subject may appear as dedicated to specialists only. On the contrary, the workshop aims at involving a broader audience since the techniques that will be discussed are included in any of the forthcoming standards for the (wireless) Internet of the future, and have a large impact on the design of user terminals. This is particular relevant since it is relatively difficult to find such an occasion in large International conferences, and/or EC-generated meetings.
This Workshop aim is twofold: on one hand it intends to review what we may call now the “classical” techniques (channel coding and modulation), especially trying to sum up about their myths and realities. On the other, the latest research trends in the field will be showcased: non-binary LDPC codes, rateless and fountain codes, efficient/parallel decoding algorithms for VLSI implementation, joint iterative decoding and parameter estimation, just to mention a few. Particular attention will be devoted to cooperative coding techniques that may play a key role in future scenarios for wireless information interchange such as sensor and vehicular networks.
