The Latest News, Articles, and Events in Signal Processing

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing

We address a robust detection problem for MIMO radars in Gaussian noise with unknown covariance matrix, for the mismatched case where the nominal transmit (or receive) steering vector may not be aligned with the true transmit (or receive) steering vector. Subspace models are adopted for taking into account these mismatches.

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing

Substantial progress has been made recently on developing provably accurate and efficient algorithms for low-rank matrix factorization via nonconvex optimization. While conventional wisdom often takes a dim view of nonconvex optimization algorithms due to their susceptibility to spurious local minima, simple iterative methods such as gradient descent have been remarkably successful in practice. 

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing

Nonlinear static multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems are analyzed. The matrix formulation of Bussgang's theorem for complex Gaussian signals is rederived and put in the context of the multivariate cumulant series expansion. The attenuation matrix is a function of the input signals’ covariance and the covariance of the input and output signals.

Nanyang Technological University

We are looking to hire a motivated post-doc to work on machine learning and data analytics. The candidate must have a strong background in machine learning, AI, signal processing, optimization methods, probability, and statistics. The candidate must have a Ph.D. in relevant fields.

This webinar, “Direct Localization for Massive MIMO,” will discuss how Large-scale MIMO systems are well known for their advantages in communications, but they also have the potential for providing very accurate localization, thanks to their high angular resolution.

IEEE Signal Processing Magazine

Imagine sitting in a room where every individual is able to read every other individual’s mind. Would you lose your mind? We are living in an age where many of us have already surrendered our personal privacy to online interfaces either knowingly or by deceptive means.

IEEE Signal Processing Magazine

Today, many devices (e.g., cars and other vehicles) we operate for various tasks (e.g., to go from place A to place B) are changing: in the past, they were characterized by a body and control actuators that allowed us to perform these tasks. These days, they are not simply passive recipients of our instructions; 

IEEE Signal Processing Magazine

This article examines the problem of interference in automotive radar. Different types of automotive radar as well as mechanisms and characteristics of interference and the effects of interference on radar system performance are described. The interference-to-noise ratio (INR) at the output of a detector is a measure of the susceptibility of a radar to interference. The INR is derived from different types of interfering and victim radars and depends on the location of both as well as parameters such as transmit power, antenna gain, and bandwidth.

IEEE Signal Processing Magazine

The anniversary of a number of significant signal processing algorithms from the 1960s, including the least mean square algorithm and the Kalman filter, provided an opportunity at ICASSP 2019 to reflect on the links between education and innovation. This led ultimately to the proposal of some special sessions as well a panel session that would provide some insight, via a historical perspective, consideration of the current status, and an assessment of the emerging educational future.
