Eigenvalue Dynamics of a Central Wishart Matrix with Application to MIMO Systems
We investigate the dynamic behavior of the stationary random process defined
by a central complex Wishart (CW) matrix as it varies along a
certain dimension . We characterize the second-order joint cdf of the
largest eigenvalue, and the second-order joint cdf of the smallest eigenvalue
of this matrix. We show that both cdfs can be expressed in exact closed-form in
terms of a finite number of well-known special functions in the context of
communication theory. As a direct application, we investigate the dynamic
behavior of the parallel channels associated with multiple-input
multiple-output (MIMO) systems in the presence of Rayleigh fading. Studying the
complex random matrix that defines the MIMO channel, we characterize the
second-order joint cdf of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for the best and
worst channels. We use these results to study the rate of change of MIMO
parallel channels, using different performance metrics. For a given value of
the MIMO channel correlation coefficient, we observe how the SNR associated
with the best parallel channel changes slower than the SNR of the worst
channel. This different dynamic behavior is much more appreciable when the
number of transmit () and receive () antennas is similar. However, as
is increased while keeping fixed, we see how the best and worst
channels tend to have a similar rate of change.Comment: 15 pages, 9 figures and 1 table. This work has been accepted for

Thirty Years of Machine Learning: The Road to Pareto-Optimal Wireless Networks
Future wireless networks have a substantial potential in terms of supporting
a broad range of complex compelling applications both in military and civilian
fields, where the users are able to enjoy high-rate, low-latency, low-cost and
reliable information services. Achieving this ambitious goal requires new radio
techniques for adaptive learning and intelligent decision making because of the
complex heterogeneous nature of the network structures and wireless services.
Machine learning (ML) algorithms have great success in supporting big data
analytics, efficient parameter estimation and interactive decision making.
Hence, in this article, we review the thirty-year history of ML by elaborating
on supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning and deep
learning. Furthermore, we investigate their employment in the compelling
applications of wireless networks, including heterogeneous networks (HetNets),
cognitive radios (CR), Internet of things (IoT), machine to machine networks
(M2M), and so on. This article aims for assisting the readers in clarifying the
motivation and methodology of the various ML algorithms, so as to invoke them
for hitherto unexplored services as well as scenarios of future wireless
networks.Comment: 46 pages, 22 fig
