	‘This thesis investigates improving communication link coverage through tri-orthogonal polarisation diversity that exploits radiated electromagnetic energy transmission and reception in three orthogonal spatial directions. A tri-orthogonal polarisation diverse approach is shown in the thesis to be beneficial for signal reception over a range of channels, both in the areas of terrestrial and satellite communications. Both software and hardware original contributions are presented. The thesis is relevant to next generation wireless communications, such as 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT), as tri-orthogonal polarisation diversity is likely to play an increasing role in the future as systems look to cope with increasing data traffic through efficient use of electromagnetic energy.’		‘This thesis investigates improving communication link coverage through tri-orthogonal polarisation diversity that exploits radiated electromagnetic energy transmission and reception in three orthogonal spatial directions.

	'''Nicholas (Nick) Lawrence''' was born in Chichester, UK in 1972. He received the BSc(Hons) in Physics from the University of Leicester, UK, in 1995 and the MSc in Microwave Solid State Physics (Distinction) from the University of Portsmouth, UK in 1997. From 1998 to 2000, he worked in RF power amplifier design as an RF development engineer at Milmega Ltd., UK. From 2000 to 2002, Dr Lawrence studied fibre optic engineering at the ORC, University of Southampton, UK obtaining an MPhil in the process, before impending fatherhood led him back to industry at Wood & Douglas Ltd., UK, to work in OFDM and RF power systems, primarily for DVB-T broadcast, including BBC 1 Formula One (F1) television coverage. Following the untimely death of a family member, Nick was forced to alter his career path, instead opting for a stint in teaching secondary science, and in particular physics, to high school students in and around Portsmouth, UK. In 2005, Nick sought to extend his horizons, and opted to build, with his own hands, his growing family’s house in France, while working as an independent project manager on various construction projects, ranging from new build designs to renovation of old buildings using traditional methods. Throughout this time away from full-time RF design, he kept his skills up to date through off-site work with a RF power amplifier company based in the Bordeaux region of France. His linguistic ability in French has been commented upon by many and, coupled with his abilities in RF/microwave/optical engineering together with an ability to work precisely under little or no supervision, has meant that he has worked closely in a technical capacity with ~~many~~ French companies. In 2010, Nick and his family emigrated from France to Adelaide, Australia, after his wife was offered a senior position at a major hospital in the city. Following a period researching MIMO and diversity techniques at the University of South Australia, Dr Lawrence began his doctoral studies at the University of Adelaide, Australia under the supervision of Professor Derek Abbott, Dr Brian Ng, and Dr Hedley Hansen of the Defence, Science and Technology Group (DSTG), a large government research facility based in the outskirts of Adelaide.
