报告摘要:
Claude Shannon proved the channel capacity theorem in 1948. Very recently, Erdal Arikan has proposed polar codes and has proved that polar codes can achieve Shannon limits asymptotically. However, there are practical issues remained to be resolved. In this talk, we will introduce the channel polarization concept, and the encoding/decoding of polar codes. We will also show some of our simulation results and the challenges faced by polar codes.

嘉宾简介：
Francis C.M. Lau received the BEng (Hons) degree with first class honors in electrical and electronic engineering and the PhD degree from King’s College London, University of London, UK. He is currently a professor and associate head at the Department of Electronic and Information Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong. He is IET Fellow.

Prof. Lau has published extensively in the area of communications. He is the co-author of three research monographs and a co-holder of four US patents. He has published over 270 research papers, including over 110 journal publications. Many of them appear in IEEE journals such as IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, IEEE Sensors Journal, IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I, IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II, IEEE Transactions on Communications, IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, and IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications. His publications received the Best Paper Awards at the International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (2011 and 2015) and the Outstanding Paper Awards at the International Conference on Advanced Communication Technology (2012 and 2013). His main research interests include channel coding, cooperative networks, wireless sensor networks, chaos-based digital communications, applications of complex-network theories, and wireless communications.

In additional to serving as technical committee program member, session chair and reviewer of many international conferences, he served as an associate editor for several journals, including IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS II and IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS I. He has been a guest associate editor of INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL AND BIFURCATION AND CHAOS since 2010 and an associate editor of IEEE CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS MAGAZINE since 2012. He was also the Chair of Technical Committee on Nonlinear Circuits and Systems, IEEE Circuits and Systems Society from 2012-2013 and the co-track chair of Nonlinear Circuits and Systems, 2010 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems.
