We investigate a method to set the maximum allowable transmit power for a secondary base station in dynamic spectrum sharing among secondary users and primary users. In conventional methods, location information is assumed. Thus, the maximum allowable transmit power can be set by considering the shadowing between the secondary base station and the primary user receivers to satisfy a constraint. Specifically, the probability that the interference from secondary base station exceeds the acceptable level must be less than the constraint target probability. We assume that the location information is not available at the secondary network. Instead, the secondary base station uses the received signal strength from the primary user transmitter for distance estimation. In this case, we have to consider shadowing not only between the secondary base station and the primary user receivers, but also between the primary user transmitter and the secondary receiver(s). We also need to account for the uncertainty of the distance. In order to satisfy the constraint target probability, we proposed a two-step approach to setting the maximum allowable transmit power where a transmission decision margin and a transmit power margin are utilized. To reduce these margins, we also propose cooperative maximum allowable transmit power setting method utilizing also received signal strength values from several secondary users. Simulation results confirm the validity of the analysis and show the effectiveness of the proposed cooperative maximum allowable transmit power setting method, i.e., the capacity based on cooperative maximum allowable transmit power setting method is significantly better than that of non-cooperative maximum allowable transmit power setting method. In addition, we show a proper size of radius of additional separation area to protect primary users by the numerical results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We generally emphasize that the zeroforcing (ZF) technique backed by an appropriate medium access control (MAC) protocol can be used to address the inevitable hidden terminal (HT) problem in multi-user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) wireless local area network (WLAN) settings. However, to address the implementation-specific requirements of MU-MIMO WLANs, such as fairness in client access and throughput of the network, we propose a fairness and a throughput-aware ZF precoding in our design at the physical layer (PHY). This precoding scheme not only solves the HT problem but also meets the fairness and the throughput requirements of MU-MIMO WLANs. Besides, we design a MAC layer protocol, supportive to PHY, which decides transmission opportunities (TXOPs) among access points (APs) based on the available degrees of freedom (DoF). We make a mandatory provision in our design that APs should have a sufficient DoF. This can ensure collision-free transmission whenever APs/transmitters transmit in the HT scenario. Additionally, we design an improved channel sounding process for MU-MIMO WLANs with a less signaling overhead than IEEE802.11ac. We demonstrate the feasibility of our PHY in a USRP2/GNU Radio testbed prototype in the lab settings. It is found that our PHY improves the SNR and effective SNR of the received signal from about 5 to 11 dB in the HT scenario. The performance of our MAC design is checked with simulation studies in a typical six-antenna AP and clients scenario. We observe that our MAC protocol has a slightly higher signaling overhead than traditional ready to send/clear to send (RTS/CTS) due to design constraints; however, the signaling time overheads are reduced by 98.67 μs compared to IEEE802.11ac. Another interesting aspect to highlight is the constant Throughput gain of four to five times that of the traditional RTS/CTS. Our MAC protocol obtains this gain as early as 98.67 μs compared to IEEE802.11ac. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We consider the downlink of a multicell system comprised of base stations (BSs) and user terminals equipped with multiple antennas respectively on the condition that arbitrary BS cooperation and distance dependent propagation path loss are assumed. In this paper, we consider homogeneous networks for the rectangular coordinates and show the cell edge performance of cellular networks based on distance from their cell center, i.e., BS. We focus on the downlink capacity of edge users in the cellular networks and show that BS cooperation can improve the spectral efficiency. The BSs cooperate for their transmission to the cell edge users in order to improve their signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) for inter-cell interference (ICI) cancelation in downlink multicell systems. When fractional frequency reuse (FFR) is applied to the cell edge, it is conjectured that BS cooperation, or a coordinated multipoint (CoMP), will further improve the system performance. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the reference schemes in terms of the cell edge SINR with a minimal impact on the path loss exponent in the networks.

The main objective of this work is to improve the energy efficiency (EE) of a multiple access channel (MAC) system, through power control, in a distributed manner. In contrast with many existing works on energy-efficient power control, which ignore the possible presence of a queue at the transmitter, we consider a new generalized cross-layer EE metric. This approach is relevant when the transmitters have a non-zero energy cost even when the radiated power is zero and takes into account the presence of a finite packet buffer and packet arrival at the transmitter. As the Nash equilibrium (NE) is an energy-inefficient solution, the present work aims at overcoming this deficit by improving the global energy efficiency. Indeed, as the considered system has multiple agencies each with their own interest, the performance metric reflecting the individual interest of each decision-maker is the global energy efficiency defined then as the sum over individual energy efficiencies. Repeated games (RG) are investigated through the study of two dynamic games (finite RG and discounted RG), whose equilibrium is defined when introducing a new operating point (OP), Pareto-dominating the NE and relying only on individual channel state information (CSI). Accordingly, closed-form expressions of the minimum number of stages of the game for finite RG (FRG) and the maximum discount factor of the discounted RG (DRG) were established. Our contributions consist of improving the system performances in terms of powers and utilities when using the new OP compared to the NE and the Nash bargaining (NB) solution. Moreover, the cross-layer model in the RG formulation leads to achieving a shorter minimum number of stages in the FRG even for higher number of users. In addition, the social welfare (sum of utilities) in the DRG decreases slightly with the cross-layer model when the number of users increases while it is reduced considerably with the Goodman model. Finally, we show that in real systems with random packet arrivals, the cross-layer power control algorithm outperforms the Goodman algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, feedback control problem is considered for networked systems with discrete, infinite distributed delays and sampled-data. A Markov chain is used to characterize the random sampled measurement process of the networked control systems. In addition, an event-driven transmitter is introduced to transmit the control signal according to the measurement sampling period. Based on Lyapunov functional and the matrix analysis techniques, several sufficient conditions are given to ensure the asymptotical stability in the mean square of the addressed control systems. Furthermore, a novel output feedback controller is proposed with both sampling and event-driven transmitter-induced delay indexes. Finally, a simulation example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results and the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, an interference channel with a cognitive relay (IFC-CR) is considered to achieve spectrum sharing between a licensed primary user and an unlicensed secondary user. The CR assists both users in relaying their messages to the respective receivers, under the constraint that the performance of the legacy primary user is not degraded. Without requiring any non-causal knowledge, the CR uses a successive interference cancellation to first decode the primary and secondary messages after a transmission phase. A power allocation is then performed to forward a linear weighted combination of the processed signals in the relaying phase. Closed-form expressions of the end-to-end outage probability are derived for both primary and secondary users under the proposed approach. Furthermore, by exploiting the decoded primary and secondary messages in the first phase, we propose the use of dirty paper coding (DPC) at CR to pre-cancel the interference seen at the secondary (or primary) receiver in the second phase, which results in a performance upper bound for the secondary (or primary) user without affecting the other user. Simulation results demonstrate that with a joint consideration of the power control at the secondary transmitter and the power allocation at CR, performance gains can be achieved for both primary and secondary users.

This paper studies the channel identifiability for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Space-Time Block Code (MIMO-STBC) systems using the noncircular complex Fast Independent Component Analysis (nc-FastICA) algorithm. In contrast to the previous blind MIMO-STBC channel estimation methods in literature, the method proposed in this paper is more suitable for non-cooperative scenario since it needs less prior knowledge and does not require any modification of the transmitter. The main contribution of the paper consists in the theoretical proof that, although the sources among different antennas of MIMO-STBC systems are not independent, they can be retrieved from the received data by directly using nc-FastICA algorithm in most cases. The conclusion is also demonstrated by simulation. This shows that the classical nc-FastICA algorithm can be applied to a wider range of situations rather than strictly independent sources.

We describe a new calibration procedure included in the production process of Scintec's displaced-beam laser scintillometers (SLS-20/40) and its effect on their measurement accuracy. The calibration procedure determines the factual displacement distances of the laser beams at the receiver and transmitter units, instead of assuming a prescribed displacement distance of 2.70 mm. For this study, four scintillometers operated by Wageningen University and the German Meteorological Service were calibrated by Scintec and their data re-analyzed. The results show that significant discrepancies may exist between the factual and the prescribed displacement distances. Generally, the factual displacement is about 0.1 mm smaller than 2.70 mm, but extremes varied between 0.04 and 0.24 mm. Correspondingly, using non-calibrated scintillometers may result in biases as large as 20 % in the estimates of the inner-scale length, $$l_{0}$$ , the structure parameter of the refractive index, $$C_{n_{_2}}$$ , and the friction velocity, $$u_{*}$$ . The bias in the sensible heat flux was negligible, because biases in $$C_{n_{_2}}$$ and $$u_{*}$$ cancel. Hence, the discrepancies explain much of the long observed underestimations of $$u_{*}$$ determined by these scintillometers. Furthermore, the calibration improves the mutual agreement between the scintillometers for $$l_{0}$$ , but especially for $$C_{n_{_2}}$$ . Finally, it is noted that the measurement specifications of the scintillometer do not expire and hence the results of the calibration can be applied retroactively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In order to break chaotic direct sequence spreading spectrum (CD3S) signals under the multipath fading channel, a particle filter based algorithm combining blind channel equalization with chaos fitting is proposed. To implement this algorithm, the intruder substitutes a different chaotic equation into the state-space equations of the channel and the chaos fitting, and then multiple particle filters are used for blind channel equalization and chaos fitting simultaneously by implementing them in reciprocal interaction. As a result, the impact brought about by the multipath fading channel and additive noises can be overcome. Furthermore, the range-differentiating factor is used to make the inevitable chaos fitting error advantageous based on the chaos fitting method. Thus, the CD3S signals can be broken according to the range of the estimated message. Simulations show that the binary message signal can be extracted from the CD3S signals without any knowledge of the chaotic transmitter's structure, parameters, initial value, or the channel characteristics.

Due to the inherent noise-like characteristic of chaotic signals and their sensitivity to the initial value, chaotic direct sequence spread spectrum (CD3S) signals have the advantages of a low probability of intercept (LPI) and a high level of security. Demodulation of non-cooperated CD3S signals is then a challenging issue. If the signal is sent though multipath channels, it is even more difficult for the receiver to demodulate it blindly. Based on the existing theories and methods, we focus more on signals passing through multipath channels. This paper presents an approach to achieve blind equalization and demodulation of CD3S signals through multipath channels. Multiple unscented Kalman filters (UKFs) are used to equalize and demodulate the CD3S signals for the unknown channel. This method can effectively demodulate the signals without any knowledge of the chaotic transmitter's parameters, initial value, state equation, or the channel coefficients, even when the signal is severely distorted by the multipath channel. Simulation results demonstrate that this method gives faster convergence and better demodulation performance than existing methods for various channel conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The transmitter and the receiver in a communication system have to be designed optimally with respect to one another to ensure reliable and efficient communication. Following this principle, we derive an optimal filterbank for processing speech signal in the listener's auditory system (receiver), so that maximum information about the talker's (transmitter) message can be obtained from the filterbank output, leading to efficient communication between the talker and the listener. We consider speech data of 45 talkers from three different languages for designing optimal filterbanks separately for each of them. We find that the computationally derived optimal filterbanks are similar to the empirically established auditory (cochlear) filterbank in the human ear. We also find that the output of the empirically established auditory filterbank provides more than 90% of the maximum information about the talker's message provided by the output of the optimal filterbank. Our experimental findings suggest that the auditory filterbank in human ear functions as a near-optimal speech processor for achieving efficient speech communication between humans.

low-power, inductorless, UWB CMOS voltage controlled oscillator is designed in 0.18 μm CMOS technology targeting to a UWBFM transmitter application. The VCO is a Double-Cross-Coupled Multivibrator and generates output frequencies ranging from 1.55 GHz to 2.4 GHz. A low-power frequency doubler based on a Gilbert cell, which operates in weak inversion, doubles the VCO tuning range from 3.1 GHz to 4.8 GHz. The proportionality between the oscillation frequency and the bias current is avoided in this case for the entire achieved tuning range resulting in a low-power design. The selected architecture provides high suppression, over 45 dB, for the 1 and 3 harmonics, while enabling high-frequency operation and conversion gain due to the unbalanced structure and the single-ended output. The proposed VCO draws 4 mA from a 1.8 V supply, it has a phase noise of −76.7 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset from the center frequency, while it exhibits a very high ratio of tuning range (43%) over power consumption equal to 7.76 dB.

A received signal strength- (RSS-)-based indoor location method (ILS) for person/assets location in indoor scenarios is presented in this paper. Theoretical bases of the method are the integral equations relating the electromagnetic (EM) fields with their sources, establishing a cost function relating the measured field at the receivers and the unknown position of the transmitter. The aim is to improve the EM characterization of the scenario yielding in a more accurate indoor location method. Regarding network infrastructure implementation, a set of receivers are deployed through the coverage area, measuring the RSS value from a transmitter node which is attached to the asset to be located. The location method is evaluated in several indoor scenarios using portable measurement equipment. The next step has been the network hardware implementation using a wireless sensor network: for this purpose, ZigBee nodes have been selected. Finally, RSS measurements variability due to multipath effects and nonline-of-sight between transmitter and receiver nodes is mitigated using calibration and a correction based on the difference between the free space field decay law and the measured RSS.

In wireless communications, the assumption that the transmitter has perfect channel state information (CSI) is often unreasonable, due to feedback delays, estimation errors, and quantization errors. In order to accurately assess system performance, a more careful analysis with imperfect CSI is needed. In this paper, the impact of partial CSI due to feedback delays in a multiuser Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MU-OFDM) cognitive radio (CR) system is investigated. The effect of partial CSI on the bit error rate (BER) is analyzed. A relationship between the transmit power and the number of bits loaded on a subcarrier is derived which takes into account the target BER requirement. With this relationship, existing resource allocation schemes which are based on perfect CSI being available can be applied when only partial CSI is available. Simulation results are provided to illustrate how the system performance degrades with increasingly poor CSI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Active interference cancellation (AIC) is an effective technique to provide interference avoidance feature for an ultrawideband (UWB) OFDM transmitter. Partial transmit sequence-AIC (PTS-AIC), which was recently proposed as an improvement of AIC, requires high computational complexity by doing the exhaustive search of all possible weighting factors whose number grows exponentially with the number of subblocks used. To reduce the complexity of PTS-AIC, this paper proposes a suboptimal way, called particle swarm optimization (PSO), to choose the weighting factors suboptimally without much performance degradation. Both continuous and discrete versions of PSO have been evaluated, and it has been shown that the discrete PSO is able to reduce the complexity significantly without sacrificing the performance of PTS-AIC in many cases.

The performance of an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) system can be significantly increased by using adaptive modulation and transmit diversity. An accurate estimate of the channel, however, is required at the transmitter to realize this benefit. Due to the time-varying nature of the channel, this estimate may be outdated by the time it is used for detection. This results in a mismatch between the actual channel and its estimate as seen by the transmitter. In this paper, we investigate adaptive OFDM with transmit and receive diversities, and evaluate the detrimental effects of this channel mismatch. We also describe a robust scheme based on using past estimates of the channel. We show that the effects of the mismatch can be significantly reduced with a combination of diversity and multiple channel estimates. In addition, to reduce the amount of feedback, the subband approach is introduced where a common channel estimate for a number of subcarriers is fedback to the transmitter, and the effect of this method on the achievable rate is analyzed.

Low peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) transmissions significantly improve the cell coverage as they enable high power transmissions without saturating the power amplifier. To support the low PAPR transmissions, π/2-BPSK-based data and DMRS are introduced in the latest version of 5G NR specifications. In addition to that, the spatial multiplexing support is also extended to π/2-BPSK data transmissions. The DMRS sequences corresponding to these spatial streams (users) are frequency division multiplexed (FDM). However, the spectrum shaping process employed in the generation of π/2-BPSK waveforms is frequency selective and hence results in asymmetric spectrum shaping effect on DMRS sequences, when they are frequency multiplexed. This subsequently results in a non-uniform block error (BLER) and PAPR performances across the spatial users, which in turn may result in inter user interference across the spatial users. In this paper, we propose two transmitter architectures, namely method 1 and method 2, to generate low PAPR π/2-BPSK-based DMRS waveforms. The proposed architectures ensure that the spectrum shaping effect is uniform across all the spatial streams. We corroborate through simulations that the proposed architectures will result in identical block error and PAPR performances across all the spatial streams. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper is concerned with diversity gain analysis for millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive MIMO systems employing distributed antenna subarray architecture. First, for a single-user mmWave system in which the transmitter and receiver consist of Kt and Kr subarrays, respectively, a diversity gain theorem is established when the numbers of subarray antennas go to infinity. Specifically, assuming that all subchannels have the same number of propagation paths L, the theorem states that by employing such a distributed antenna subarray architecture, a diversity gain of KrKtL−Ns+1 can be achieved, where Ns represents the number of data streams. This result means that compared to the co-located antenna architecture, using the distributed antenna subarray architecture can scale up the diversity gain proportionally to KrKt. The analysis of diversity gain is then extended to the multiuser scenario as well as the scenario with conventional partially connected radio-frequency structure in the literature. Simulation results obtained with the hybrid analog/digital processing corroborate the analysis results and show that the distributed subarray architecture indeed yields a significantly better diversity performance than the co-located antenna architectures.

To address the increasing data rate demands for future wireless networks, a dense deployment of base stations or access points is the most promising approach; however, doing so may cause high intercell interference (ICI). Numerous interference coordination (IC) approaches have been proposed to reduce ICI. Conducting 5G communication on millimeter wave (mmWave) bands is more complex because of its higher propagation losses and greater attenuation variance, all of which depend on environment change. Massive antenna arrays with beamforming techniques can be used to overcome high propagation loss, reduce interference, deliver performance gains of coordination without a high overhead, and deliver high network capacity with multiplex transmitters. The central challenge of a massive antenna array that uses beamforming techniques is coordinating the users and beams for each transmitter within a large network. To address this challenge, we propose a novel two-level beamforming coordination approach that partitions a large network into clusters. At the intracluster level, this approach performs intracluster coordination similar to the user selection algorithms in a multiuser multiple input and multiple output (MU-MIMO); doing this maximizes the utility function or minimizes the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) function within a cluster. A dynamic time domain IC approach is employed at the intercluster level, collecting interference information for cluster-edge user equipment (UE) and allocating the UE dynamically among the clusters to reduce the intercluster interference for a switched-beam system (SBS). Simulation results show that the proposed two-level IC approach achieves a higher edge user performance or cell capacity than with the current uncoordinated/coordinated approaches.

Compared to linear precoding, Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) requires less transmit power to eliminate the spatial interference in a multi-user downlink scenario involving a multi-antenna transmitter and geographically separated receivers. However, THP gives rise to certain performance losses, referred to as modulo loss and power loss. Based on the observation that part of the users can omit the modulo operation at the receiver during an entire frame, we present an alternative detector, which reduces the modulo loss compared to the conventional detector. In addition, this contribution compares several existing and novel algorithms for selecting the user ordering and the rotation of the constellations at the transmitter, to increase the SNR at the detector and decrease the modulo loss for the alternative detector. Compared to the better of linear precoding and THP with conventional detector, the optimized alternative detector achieves significant gains (up to about 4 dB) for terrestrial wireless communication, whereas smaller gains (up to about 1 dB) are obtained for multi-beam satellite communication.

An un-coded multi-transmitter query scheme is introduced for wireless backscatter communication systems in which M transmitters and N receivers are used for single-tag connectivity (M × 1 × N). The main idea is to harden the wireless communication channel with a tag device for high data rate readings. The proposed method is designed for multipath fading channels in which the backscatter channel is a multiplicative Rayleigh. A coherent transmit query scheme is used to increase the tag-reflected signals and simultaneously alter the fading statistics in the forward path by implementing a receiver feedback. Full-diversity performance and array gain is achieved using the receiver diversity without requiring any tag antenna diversity. Therefore, the tag device remains simple.Mathematical expressions for the probability density function (PDF) of the backscatter channel are presented using closed-form equations. Bit error rate (BER) simulations for the binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation are computed numerically. Diversity gain of 10 dB is obtained by using a 2 × 1 × 1 scheme. The results show that the transmit diversity for single-tag usage performs the same as the tag antenna diversity, at the expense of a moderate transmitter complexity. The tag device remains intact as a requirement for the simplicity and size constraints. Also, the system realization becomes more feasible due to the available space on the transmitter side to accomplish the uncorrelated forward channel conditions. The feasibility study is demonstrated using software-defined radio (SDR) implementations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper investigates the multi-cell coordinated beamforming (MCBF) design for secure simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in both centralized and distributed manners. In each cell, one transmitter serves multiple information receivers (IRs) and energy receivers (ERs) with the non-linear energy harvesting (EH) model. Meanwhile, several eavesdroppers (Eves) intend to intercept the confidential information transmitted for IRs. To achieve a secure transmission, the artificial noise (AN) is embedded in the transmit signals of each transmitter. The proposed design is formulated into a power-minimization problem to guarantee the IRs’ information and ERs’ energy requirements while avoiding the information being intercepted by Eves. Since the problem is non-convex and not easy to solve, a solution method based on semi-definition relaxation (SDR) is proposed and the global optimum is proved to be guaranteed with full channel state information (CSI). We further present a distributed AN-aided MCBF for the system by using alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM), with which each transmitter is able to calculate its own beamforming vectors and AN covariance matrix based on its local CSI. Simulation results show that our proposed distributed design converges to the global optimum obtained by the centralized one. It is also shown that by employing AN, the total required power of the system is reduced and the effect of AN on the system performance decreases with increment of transmit antennas. Compared with traditional linear EH model, optimizing the system under the non-linear EH one avoids false output power at the ERs and saves power at the transmitter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Outphasing transmitters have been explored to study the trade-off between linearity and efficiency. The outphasing technique enhances efficiency by operating two amplifiers at lower output amplitudes, using two constant envelope signals. Their major drawback is the inherent sensitivity to gain and phase imbalances between the two amplifier branches. Another important issue is related to the degradation of efficiency, especially in isolated combiners. This paper presents a Statistical Markov-Chain Mode-Multiplexing (MM) transmitter which combines features of the MM and Reverse MM-LINC. Commercial analog devices and a digital platform for signal processing purposes are used to test the performance with an orthogonal frequency multiplexing modulation (OFDM), which is one of the most used modulation schemes in wireless communication systems.

In this paper, we demonstrate how information can be transferred among the long-distance memory units in a hybrid solid architecture, which consists the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) ensemble acting as the memory unit, the LC circuit acting as the transmitter (receiver), and the flux qubit acting as the interface. Numerical simulation demonstrates that the high-fidelity quantum information transfer between memory unit and transmitter (receiver) can be implemented, and this process is robust to both the LC circuit decay and NV ensemble spontaneous emission.
