- | The communications theory lab is concerned with fundamental issues in the area of communications, in particular coding and information theory. Information theory establishes the limits of communications -- what is achievable and what is not. Coding theory tries to devise low complexity schemes that approach these limits. | + | The **information processing group** is concerned with fundamental issues in the area of communications, in particular coding and information theory.
