Daniel W. Bliss is the director of the BLISS lab and a professor at ASU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bliss\u2019s research is focused on developing novel and disruptive system concepts with new capabilities or dramatically improved performance.  In particular, his research addresses wireless communications, remote sensing, and anticipatory medical analytics.  As tools in pursuing these research goals, Bliss employs information theory, estimation theory, and signal processing, combined with thorough system analysis. Many of these system problems involve extracting information in noisy and difficult situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bliss has made numerous significant research contributions. In adaptive wireless communications, both as an individual and as a leader of research teams, he has developed high-performance multiple-antenna receivers that have demonstrated experimentally communications performance dramatically better than traditional single antenna systems.  Bliss invented and developed high-performance multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) signal acquisition systems.  Both the receiver and acquisition research led to patents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the field of remote sensing Bliss was one of the early and significant contributors to the theory of MIMO radar, particularly in its application to ground moving-target indicator radar.  He led a team that was the first to demonstrate the performance benefits experimentally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before coming to ASU, Bliss performed research in a wide range of topics including rocket avionics for the Atlas-Centaur launch vehicle and superconducting magnet design for particle accelerators, both at General Dynamics, and particle physics during his doctoral work at University of California, San Diego. More recently, he was employed by MIT Lincoln Laboratory for 15 years, where much of his research and development effort was focused on high-performance wireless communications, novel remote sensing (such as radar and geolocation), and innovative statistical signal processing for biomedical applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
