On multiple-antenna communications: signal detection, error exponent and and quality of service

Motivated by the demand of increasing data rate in wireless communication, multiple-antenna communication is becoming a key technology in the next generation wireless system. This dissertation considers three different aspects of multipleantenna communication. The first part is signal detection in the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication. Some low complexity near optimal detectors are designed based on an improved version of Bell Laboratories Layered Space-Time (BLAST) architecture detection and an iterative space alternating generalized expectation-maximization (SAGE) algorithm. The proposed algorithms can almost achieve the performance of optimal maximum likelihood detection. Signal detections without channel knowledge (noncoherent) and with co-channel interference are also investigated. Novel solutions are proposed with near optimal performance. Secondly, the error exponent of the distributed multiple-antenna communication (relay) in the windband regime is computed. Optimal power allocation between the source and relay node, and geometrical relay node placement are investigated based on the error exponent analysis. Lastly, the quality of service (QoS) of MIMO/single-input single- output(SISO) communication is studied. The tradeoff of the end-to-end distortion and transmission buffer delay is derived. Also, the SNR exponent of the distortion is computed for MIMO communication, which can provide some insights of the interplay among time diversity, space diversity and the spatial multiplex gain

Spatial diversity in MIMO communication systems with distributed or co-located antennas

The use of multiple antennas in wireless communication systems has gained much attention during the last decade. It was shown that such multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems offer huge advantages over single-antenna systems. Typically, quite restrictive assumptions are made concerning the spacing of the individual antenna elements. On the one hand, it is typically assumed that the antenna elements at transmitter and receiver are co-located, i.e., they belong to some sort of antenna array. On the other hand, it is often assumed that the antenna spacings are sufficiently large, so as to justify the assumption of independent fading. In this thesis, the above assumptions are relaxed. In the first part, it is shown that MIMO systems with distributed antennas and MIMO systems with co-located antennas can be treated in a single, unifying framework. In the second part this fact is utilized, in order to develop appropriate transmit power allocation strategies for co-located and distributed MIMO systems. Finally, the third part focuses on specific synchronization problems that are of interest for distributed MIMO systems

Linear Transmit-Receive Strategies for Multi-user MIMO Wireless Communications

Die Notwendigkeit zur Unterdrueckung von Interferenzen auf der einen Seite und zur Ausnutzung der durch Mehrfachzugriffsverfahren erzielbaren Gewinne auf der anderen Seite rueckte die raeumlichen Mehrfachzugriffsverfahren (Space Division Multiple Access, SDMA) in den Fokus der Forschung. Ein Vertreter der raeumlichen Mehrfachzugriffsverfahren, die lineare Vorkodierung, fand aufgrund steigender Anzahl an Nutzern und Antennen in heutigen und zukuenftigen Mobilkommunikationssystemen besondere Beachtung, da diese Verfahren das Design von Algorithmen zur Vorcodierung vereinfachen. Aus diesem Grund leistet diese Dissertation einen Beitrag zur Entwicklung linearer Sende- und Empfangstechniken fuer MIMO-Technologie mit mehreren Nutzern. Zunaechst stellen wir ein Framework zur Approximation des Datendurchsatzes in Broadcast-MIMO-Kanaelen mit mehreren Nutzern vor. In diesem Framework nehmen wir das lineare Vorkodierverfahren regularisierte Blockdiagonalisierung (RBD) an. Durch den Vergleich von Dirty Paper Coding (DPC) und linearen Vorkodieralgorithmen (z.B. Zero Forcing (ZF) und Blockdiagonalisierung (BD)) ist es uns moeglich, untere und obere Schranken fuer den Unterschied bezueglich Datenraten und bezueglich Leistung zwischen beiden anzugeben. Im Weiteren entwickeln wir einen Algorithmus fuer koordiniertes Beamforming (Coordinated Beamforming, CBF), dessen Loesung sich in geschlossener Form angeben laesst. Dieser CBF-Algorithmus basiert auf der SeDJoCo-Transformation und loest bisher vorhandene Probleme im Bereich CBF. Im Anschluss schlagen wir einen iterativen CBF-Algorithmus namens FlexCoBF (flexible coordinated beamforming) fuer MIMO-Broadcast-Kanaele mit mehreren Nutzern vor. Im Vergleich mit bis dato existierenden iterativen CBF-Algorithmen kann als vielversprechendster Vorteil die freie Wahl der linearen Sende- und Empfangsstrategie herausgestellt werden. Das heisst, jede existierende Methode der linearen Vorkodierung kann als Sendestrategie genutzt werden, waehrend die Strategie zum Empfangsbeamforming frei aus MRC oder MMSE gewaehlt werden darf. Im Hinblick auf Szenarien, in denen Mobilfunkzellen in Clustern zusammengefasst sind, erweitern wir FlexCoBF noch weiter. Hier wurde das Konzept der koordinierten Mehrpunktverbindung (Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) transmission) integriert. Zuletzt stellen wir drei Moeglichkeiten vor, Kanalzustandsinformationen (Channel State Information, CSI) unter verschiedenen Kanalumstaenden zu erlangen. Die Qualitaet der Kanalzustandsinformationen hat einen starken Einfluss auf die Guete des Uebertragungssystems. Die durch unsere neuen Algorithmen erzielten Verbesserungen haben wir mittels numerischer Simulationen von Summenraten und Bitfehlerraten belegt.In order to combat interference and exploit large multiplexing gains of the multi-antenna systems, a particular interest in spatial division multiple access (SDMA) techniques has emerged. Linear precoding techniques, as one of the SDMA strategies, have obtained more attention due to the fact that an increasing number of users and antennas involved into the existing and future mobile communication systems requires a simplification of the precoding design. Therefore, this thesis contributes to the design of linear transmit and receive strategies for multi-user MIMO broadcast channels in a single cell and clustered multiple cells. First, we present a throughput approximation framework for multi-user MIMO broadcast channels employing regularized block diagonalization (RBD) linear precoding. Comparing dirty paper coding (DPC) and linear precoding algorithms (e.g., zero forcing (ZF) and block diagonalization (BD)), we further quantify lower and upper bounds of the rate and power offset between them as a function of the system parameters such as the number of users and antennas. Next, we develop a novel closed-form coordinated beamforming (CBF) algorithm (i.e., SeDJoCo based closed-form CBF) to solve the existing open problem of CBF. Our new algorithm can support a MIMO system with an arbitrary number of users and transmit antennas. Moreover, the application of our new algorithm is not only for CBF, but also for blind source separation (BSS), since the same mathematical model has been used in BSS application.Then, we further propose a new iterative CBF algorithm (i.e., flexible coordinated beamforming (FlexCoBF)) for multi-user MIMO broadcast channels. Compared to the existing iterative CBF algorithms, the most promising advantage of our new algorithm is that it provides freedom in the choice of the linear transmit and receive beamforming strategies, i.e., any existing linear precoding method can be chosen as the transmit strategy and the receive beamforming strategy can be flexibly chosen from MRC or MMSE receivers. Considering clustered multiple cell scenarios, we extend the FlexCoBF algorithm further and introduce the concept of the coordinated multipoint (CoMP) transmission. Finally, we present three strategies for channel state information (CSI) acquisition regarding various channel conditions and channel estimation strategies. The CSI knowledge is required at the base station in order to implement SDMA techniques. The quality of the obtained CSI heavily affects the system performance. The performance enhancement achieved by our new strategies has been demonstrated by numerical simulation results in terms of the system sum rate and the bit error rate

MIMO Systems

In recent years, it was realized that the MIMO communication systems seems to be inevitable in accelerated evolution of high data rates applications due to their potential to dramatically increase the spectral efficiency and simultaneously sending individual information to the corresponding users in wireless systems. This book, intends to provide highlights of the current research topics in the field of MIMO system, to offer a snapshot of the recent advances and major issues faced today by the researchers in the MIMO related areas. The book is written by specialists working in universities and research centers all over the world to cover the fundamental principles and main advanced topics on high data rates wireless communications systems over MIMO channels. Moreover, the book has the advantage of providing a collection of applications that are completely independent and self-contained; thus, the interested reader can choose any chapter and skip to another without losing continuity

Systèmes MIMO : conception, estimation du canal, et détection

The aim of this thesis is to investigate multiple input multiple output (MIMO) techniques from the reception algorithms, i.e., channel estimation, symbol detection, and interference suppression, to the advanced spatial modulation (SM) transmission schemes, i.e., the signal constellation design for high performance and energy efficiency. In the reception algorithms, the proposed schemes are derived based on the detection theory, i.e., maximum likelihood (ML), linear minimum mean square error (MMSE), successive interference cancellation (SIC), combining with the statistical analysis, i.e., Bayesian linear regression and Bayesian model comparison, in order to deal with the channel uncertainty, i.e., fading, correlations, thermal noise, multiple interference, and the impact of estimation errors.In the transmission schemes, the signal constellations are targeted to find a good trade off between the average transmit energy and the minimum Euclidean distance in the signal space. The proposed schemes, denoted by enhanced SM (ESM), introduce novel modulation/antenna combinations and use them as the information bits for transmission. The number of those combinations is the double or the quadruple of the number of active antenna indices (or index combinations) in conventional SM systems, and this increases the number of bits transmitted per channel use by one or two.The results of simulations show that good system performance can be achieved with the advanced MIMO techniques. Several examples are presented in this thesis to provide insights for the MIMO system designs.Cette thèse aborde plusieurs problèmes fondamentaux des systèmes de communications sans fil avec des antennes multiples, dites systèmes MIMO (multiple input, multiple output). Les contributions se situent aussi bien au niveau des algorithmes de réception qu’au niveau de la génération du signal à l’émission.La plus grande partie de la thèse est dédiée à l’étude des algorithmes de réception. Les points abordés comprennent la modélisation et l’estimation du canal, la détection robuste des symboles, et la suppression des interférences. Un nouveau modèle de canal est proposé dans le chapitre 3 en exploitant les corrélations dans les domaines temporel, fréquentiel et spatial, et en réduisant l’espace des paramètres aux termes dominants. Ce modèle est utilisé pour proposer ensuite un estimateur de canal à faible complexité et aussi un sélecteur de mots de code pour envoyer vers l’émetteur les informations sur l’état du canal. Dans le chapitre 4, la réception robuste est étudiée pour les systèmes MIMO-OFDM sans une connaissance parfaite du canal. Des récepteurs robustes sont proposés pour les cas avec ou sans connaissance statistique du canal. La conception de récepteurs pour les systèmes MIMO-OFDM en présence d’interférence est étudiée dans le chapitre 5 et des récepteurs robustes sont proposés prenant en compte séparément l’interférence causée par les ondes pilotes et celle causée par les symboles d’une part et l’asynchronisme entre le signal et l’interférence d’autre part.Dans la deuxième partie de la thèse (chapitre 6), nous abordons les modulations spatiales qui sont particulièrement adaptées aux systèmes MIMO dans lesquels le nombre de chaines d’émission est inférieur aux nombre d’antennes. Remarquant que l’efficacité spectrale de ces systèmes reste très faible par rapport à la technique de multiplexage spatiale, nous avons développé des modulations spatiales améliorées (ESM, pour Enhanced Spatial Modulation) qui augmentent substantiellement l’efficacité spectrale. Ces modulations sont basées sur l’introduction de modulations secondaires, obtenues par interpolation. La technique ESM gagne plusieurs décibels en rapport signal à bruit lorsque les constellations du signal sont choisies de façon à avoir la même efficacité spectrale que dans les modulations spatiales conventionnelles

Adaptive Communications for Next Generation Broadband Wireless Access Systems

Un dels aspectes claus en el disseny i gestió de les xarxes sense fils d'accés de banda ampla és l'ús eficient dels recursos radio. Des del punt de vista de l'operador, l'ample de banda és un bé escàs i preuat que s´ha d'explotar i gestionar de la forma més eficient possible tot garantint la qualitat del servei que es vol proporcionar. Per altra banda, des del punt de vista del usuari, la qualitat del servei ofert ha de ser comparable al de les xarxes fixes, requerint així un baix retard i una baixa pèrdua de paquets per cadascun dels fluxos de dades entre la xarxa i l'usuari. Durant els darrers anys s´han desenvolupat nombroses tècniques i algoritmes amb l'objectiu d'incrementar l'eficiència espectral. Entre aquestes tècniques destaca l'ús de múltiples antenes al transmissor i al receptor amb l'objectiu de transmetre diferents fluxos de dades simultaneament sense necessitat d'augmentar l'ample de banda. Per altra banda, la optimizació conjunta de la capa d'accés al medi i la capa física (fent ús de l'estat del canal per tal de gestionar de manera optima els recursos) també permet incrementar sensiblement l'eficiència espectral del sistema.L'objectiu d'aquesta tesi és l'estudi i desenvolupament de noves tècniques d'adaptació de l'enllaç i gestió dels recursos ràdio aplicades sobre sistemes d'accés ràdio de propera generació (Beyond 3G). Els estudis realitzats parteixen de la premissa que el transmisor coneix (parcialment) l'estat del canal i que la transmissió es realitza fent servir un esquema multiportadora amb múltiples antenes al transmisor i al receptor. En aquesta tesi es presenten dues línies d'investigació, la primera per casos d'una sola antenna a cada banda de l'enllaç, i la segona en cas de múltiples antenes. En el cas d'una sola antena al transmissor i al receptor, un nou esquema d'assignació de recursos ràdio i priorització dels paquets (scheduling) és proposat i analitzat integrant totes dues funcions sobre una mateixa entitat (cross-layer). L'esquema proposat té com a principal característica la seva baixa complexitat i que permet operar amb transmissions multimedia. Alhora, posteriors millores realitzades per l'autor sobre l'esquema proposat han permès també reduir els requeriments de senyalització i combinar de forma óptima usuaris d'alta i baixa mobilitat sobre el mateix accés ràdio, millorant encara més l'eficiència espectral del sistema. En cas d'enllaços amb múltiples antenes es proposa un nou esquema que combina la selecció del conjunt optim d'antenes transmissores amb la selecció de la codificació espai- (frequència-) temps. Finalment es donen una sèrie de recomanacions per tal de combinar totes dues línies d'investigació, així con un estat de l'art de les tècniques proposades per altres autors que combinen en part la gestió dels recursos ràdio i els esquemes de transmissió amb múltiples antenes.Uno de los aspectos claves en el diseño y gestión de las redes inalámbricas de banda ancha es el uso eficiente de los recursos radio. Desde el punto de vista del operador, el ancho de banda es un bien escaso y valioso que se debe explotar y gestionar de la forma más eficiente posible sin afectar a la calidad del servicio ofrecido. Por otro lado, desde el punto de vista del usuario, la calidad del servicio ha de ser comparable al ofrecido por las redes fijas, requiriendo así un bajo retardo y una baja tasa de perdida de paquetes para cada uno de los flujos de datos entre la red y el usuario. Durante los últimos años el número de técnicas y algoritmos que tratan de incrementar la eficiencia espectral en dichas redes es bastante amplio. Entre estas técnicas destaca el uso de múltiples antenas en el transmisor y en el receptor con el objetivo de poder transmitir simultáneamente diferentes flujos de datos sin necesidad de incrementar el ancho de banda. Por otro lado, la optimización conjunta de la capa de acceso al medio y la capa física (utilizando información de estado del canal para gestionar de manera óptima los recursos) también permite incrementar sensiblemente la eficiencia espectral del sistema.El objetivo de esta tesis es el estudio y desarrollo de nuevas técnicas de adaptación del enlace y la gestión de los recursos radio, y su posterior aplicación sobre los sistemas de acceso radio de próxima generación (Beyond 3G). Los estudios realizados parten de la premisa de que el transmisor conoce (parcialmente) el estado del canal a la vez que se considera que la transmisión se realiza sobre un sistema de transmisión multiportadora con múltiple antenas en el transmisor y el receptor. La tesis se centra sobre dos líneas de investigación, la primera para casos de una única antena en cada lado del enlace, y la segunda en caso de múltiples antenas en cada lado. Para el caso de una única antena en el transmisor y en el receptor, se ha desarrollado un nuevo esquema de asignación de los recursos radio así como de priorización de los paquetes de datos (scheduling) integrando ambas funciones sobre una misma entidad (cross-layer). El esquema propuesto tiene como principal característica su bajo coste computacional a la vez que se puede aplicar en caso de transmisiones multimedia. Posteriores mejoras realizadas por el autor sobre el esquema propuesto han permitido también reducir los requisitos de señalización así como combinar de forma óptima usuarios de alta y baja movilidad. Por otro lado, en caso de enlaces con múltiples antenas en transmisión y recepción, se presenta un nuevo esquema de adaptación en el cual se combina la selección de la(s) antena(s) transmisora(s) con la selección del esquema de codificación espacio-(frecuencia-) tiempo. Para finalizar, se dan una serie de recomendaciones con el objetivo de combinar ambas líneas de investigación, así como un estado del arte de las técnicas propuestas por otros autores que combinan en parte la gestión de los recursos radio y los esquemas de transmisión con múltiples antenas.In Broadband Wireless Access systems the efficient use of the resources is crucial from many points of views. From the operator point of view, the bandwidth is a scarce, valuable, and expensive resource which must be exploited in an efficient manner while the Quality of Service (QoS) provided to the users is guaranteed. On the other hand, a tight delay and link quality constraints are imposed on each data flow hence the user experiences the same quality as in fixed networks. During the last few years many techniques have been developed in order to increase the spectral efficiency and the throughput. Among them, the use of multiple antennas at the transmitter and the receiver (exploiting spatial multiplexing) with the joint optimization of the medium access control layer and the physical layer parameters.In this Ph.D. thesis, different adaptive techniques for B3G multicarrier wireless systems are developed and proposed focusing on the SS-MC-MA and the OFDM(A) (IEEE 802.16a/e/m standards) communication schemes. The research lines emphasize into the adaptation of the transmission having (Partial) knowledge of the Channel State Information for both; single antenna and multiple antenna links. For single antenna links, the implementation of a joint resource allocation and scheduling strategy by including adaptive modulation and coding is investigated. A low complexity resource allocation and scheduling algorithm is proposed with the objective to cope with real- and/or non-real- time requirements and constraints. A special attention is also devoted in reducing the required signalling. However, for multiple antenna links, the performance of a proposed adaptive transmit antenna selection scheme jointly with space-time block coding selection is investigated and compared with conventional structures. In this research line, mainly two optimizations criteria are proposed for spatial link adaptation, one based on the minimum error rate for fixed throughput, and the second focused on the maximisation of the rate for fixed error rate. Finally, some indications are given on how to include the spatial adaptation into the investigated and proposed resource allocation and scheduling process developed for single antenna transmission

Mobile and Wireless Communications

Mobile and Wireless Communications have been one of the major revolutions of the late twentieth century. We are witnessing a very fast growth in these technologies where mobile and wireless communications have become so ubiquitous in our society and indispensable for our daily lives. The relentless demand for higher data rates with better quality of services to comply with state-of-the art applications has revolutionized the wireless communication field and led to the emergence of new technologies such as Bluetooth, WiFi, Wimax, Ultra wideband, OFDMA. Moreover, the market tendency confirms that this revolution is not ready to stop in the foreseen future. Mobile and wireless communications applications cover diverse areas including entertainment, industrialist, biomedical, medicine, safety and security, and others, which definitely are improving our daily life. Wireless communication network is a multidisciplinary field addressing different aspects raging from theoretical analysis, system architecture design, and hardware and software implementations. While different new applications are requiring higher data rates and better quality of service and prolonging the mobile battery life, new development and advanced research studies and systems and circuits designs are necessary to keep pace with the market requirements. This book covers the most advanced research and development topics in mobile and wireless communication networks. It is divided into two parts with a total of thirty-four stand-alone chapters covering various areas of wireless communications of special topics including: physical layer and network layer, access methods and scheduling, techniques and technologies, antenna and amplifier design, integrated circuit design, applications and systems. These chapters present advanced novel and cutting-edge results and development related to wireless communication offering the readers the opportunity to enrich their knowledge in specific topics as well as to explore the whole field of rapidly emerging mobile and wireless networks. We hope that this book will be useful for students, researchers and practitioners in their research studies

Design of serially-concatenated LDGM codes

[Resumen] Since Shannon demonstrated in 1948 the feasibility of achieving an arbitrarily low error probability in a communications system provided that the transmission rate was kept below a certain limit, one of the greatest challenges in the realm of digital communications and, more specifically, in the channel coding field, has been finding codes that are able to approach this limit as much as possible with a reasonable encoding and decoding complexity, However, it was not until 1993, when Berrou et al. presented the turbo codes, that a coding scheme capable of performing at less than 1dB from Shannon's limit with an extremely low error probability was found. The idea on which these codes are based is the iterative decoding of concatenated components that exchange information about the transmitted bits, which is known as the "turbo principle". The generalization of this idea led in 1995 to the rediscovery of LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) codes, proposed for the first time by Gallager in the 60s. LDPC codes are linear block codes with a sparse parity check matrix that are able to surpass the performance of turbo codes with a smaller decoding complexity. However, due to the fact that the generator matrix of general LDPC codes is not sparse, their encoding complexity can be excessively high. LDGM (Low Density Generator Matrix) codes, a particular case of LDPC codes, are codes with a sparse generator matrix, thanks to which they present a lower encoding complexity. However, except for the case of very high rate codes, LDGM codes are "bad", i.e., they have a non-zero error probability that is independent of the code block length. More recently, IRA (Irregular Repeat-Accumulated) codes, consisting of the serial concatenation of a LDGM code and an accumulator, have been proposed. IRA codes are able to get close to the performance of LDPC codes with an encoding complexity similar to that of LDGM codes. In this thesis we explore an alternative to IRA codes consisting in the serial concatenation of two LDGM codes, a scheme that we will denote SCLDGM (Serially-Concatenated Low-Density Generator Matrix). The basic premise of SCLDGM codes is that an inner code of rate close to the desired transmission rate fixes most of the errors, and an external code of rate close to one corrects the few errors that result from decoding the inner code. For any of these schemes to perform as close as possible to the capacity limit it is necessary to determine the code parameters that best fit the channel over which the transmission will be done. The two techniques most commonly used in the literature to optimize LDPC codes are Density Evolution (DE) and EXtrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) charts, which have been employed to obtain optimized codes that perform at a few tenths of a decibel of the AWGN channel capacity. However, no optimization techniques have been presented for SCLDGM codes, which so far have been designed heuristically and therefore their performance is far from the performance achieved by IRA and LDPC codes. Other of the most important advances that have occurred in recent years is the utilization of multiple antennas at the trasmitter and the receiver, which is known as MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) systems. Telatar showed that the channel capacity in these kind of systems scales linearly with the minimum number of transmit and receive antennas, which enables us to achieve spectral efficiencies far greater than with systems with a single transmit and receive antenna (or Single Input Single Output (SISO) systems). This important advantage has attracted a lot of attention from the research community, and has caused that many of the new standards, such as WiMax 802.16e or WiFi 802.11n, as well as future 4G systems are based on MIMO systems. The main problem of MIMO systems is the high complexity of optimum detection, which grows exponentially with the number of transmit antennas and the number of modulation levels. Several suboptimum algorithms have been proposed to reduce this complexity, most notably the SIC-MMSE (Soft-Interference Cancellation Minimum Mean Square Error) and spherical detectors. Another major issue is the high complexity of the channel estimation, due to the large number of coefficients which determine it. There are techniques, such as Maximum-Likelihood-Expectation-Maximization (ML-EM), that have been successfully applied to estimate MIMO channels but, as in the case of detection, they suffer from the problem of a very high complexity when the number of transmit antennas or the size of the constellation increase. The main objective of this work is the study and optimization of SCLDGM codes in SISO and MIMO channels. To this end, we propose an optimization method for SCLDGM codes based on EXIT charts that allow these codes to exceed the performance of IRA codes existing in the literature and get close to the performance of LDPC codes, with the advantage over the latter of a lower encoding complexity. We also propose optimized SCLDGM codes for both spherical and SIC-MMSE suboptimal MIMO detectors, constituting a system that is capable of approaching the capacity limits of MIMO channels with a low complexity encoding, detection and decoding. We analyze the BICM (Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation) scheme and the concatenation of SCLDGM codes with Space-Time Codes (STC) in ergodic and quasi-static MIMO channels. Furthermore, we explore the combination of these codes with different channel estimation algorithms that will take advantage of the low complexity of the suboptimum detectors to reduce the complexity of the estimation process while keeping a low distance to the capacity limit. Finally, we propose coding schemes for low rates involving the serial concatenation of several LDGM codes, reducing the complexity of recently proposed schemes based on Hadamard codes
