Biography
Cathryn Trott Senior Research Fellow, and ARC DECRA Fellow, at the Curtin Institute of Radio Astronomy. Cathryn Trott lead the Epoch of Reionisation project within ICRAR, and am heavily involved in the design and data processing for the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) and future Square Kilometre Array (SKA) EoR projects. More broadly, Cathryn Trott apply signal processing techniques to the design and analysis of radio astronomy instrumentation and data.
Research Interest
Signal processing theory; signal estimation and detection; calibration of radio interferometers; Epoch of Reionisation estimation; radio astronomy algorithms.
