Dr Hanlen received a Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical Engineering from the University of Newcastle, Australia, in 1999. His undergraduate studies were supported by the New South Wales Electrical Transmission Authority. He received a PhD in Channel Modelling and Capacity Analysis for Multi-input, Multi-output, Wireless Communication Systems in 2004 from the University of Newcastle.
Dr Hanlen’s research focuses on physical layer channel modelling and information theory for multiple antenna wireless communication systems. Other areas of interest are entropy; multi-antenna and multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) wireless communication; spatial and continuous communication systems; operator theoretic channel models; spatial and radio-location; and mobile communication physical-layer ad-hoc channel models.
