Power control and receiver design for energy efficiency in multipath CDMA channels with bandlimited waveforms
This paper is focused on the cross-layer design problem of joint multiuser
detection and power control for energy-efficiency optimization in a wireless
data network through a game-theoretic approach. Building on work of Meshkati,
et al., wherein the tools of game-theory are used in order to achieve
energy-efficiency in a simple synchronous code division multiple access system,
system asynchronism, the use of bandlimited chip-pulses, and the multipath
distortion induced by the wireless channel are explicitly incorporated into the
analysis. Several non-cooperative games are proposed wherein users may vary
their transmit power and their uplink receiver in order to maximize their
utility, which is defined here as the ratio of data throughput to transmit
power. In particular, the case in which a linear multiuser detector is adopted
at the receiver is considered first, and then, the more challenging case in
which non-linear decision feedback multiuser detectors are employed is
considered. The proposed games are shown to admit a unique Nash equilibrium
point, while simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed
solutions, as well as that the use of a decision-feedback multiuser receiver
brings remarkable performance improvements.Comment: appeared in the Proceedings of the 41st Annual Conference on

Precoder Design for Physical Layer Multicasting
This paper studies the instantaneous rate maximization and the weighted sum
delay minimization problems over a K-user multicast channel, where multiple
antennas are available at the transmitter as well as at all the receivers.
Motivated by the degree of freedom optimality and the simplicity offered by
linear precoding schemes, we consider the design of linear precoders using the
aforementioned two criteria. We first consider the scenario wherein the linear
precoder can be any complex-valued matrix subject to rank and power
constraints. We propose cyclic alternating ascent based precoder design
algorithms and establish their convergence to respective stationary points.
Simulation results reveal that our proposed algorithms considerably outperform
known competing solutions. We then consider a scenario in which the linear
precoder can be formed by selecting and concatenating precoders from a given
finite codebook of precoding matrices, subject to rank and power constraints.
We show that under this scenario, the instantaneous rate maximization problem
is equivalent to a robust submodular maximization problem which is strongly NP
hard. We propose a deterministic approximation algorithm and show that it
yields a bicriteria approximation. For the weighted sum delay minimization
problem we propose a simple deterministic greedy algorithm, which at each step
entails approximately maximizing a submodular set function subject to multiple
knapsack constraints, and establish its performance guarantee.Comment: 37 pages, 8 figures, submitted to IEEE Trans. Signal Pro
Performance analysis of pre-equalized multilevel partial response schemes
In order to achieve high speed on electrical interconnects, channel attenuation at high frequencies must be dealt with by proper transceiver design. In this paper we investigate finite-complexity MMSE pre-equalization under an average transmit power constraint, to compensate for channel distortion in the case of both full-response and precoded partial response signaling with L-PAM mapping, and consider the resulting error performance for symbol-by-symbol detection and sequence detection. For a representative electrical interconnect, we point out that the constellation size (2-PAM or 4-PAM), the type of signaling (full response or partial response), the detection method (symbol-by-symbol detection or sequence detection) and the number of pre-equalizer taps should be carefully selected in order to achieve satisfactory error performance at high data rates. For several scenarios, precoded duobinary 4-PAM is found to yield the best error performance for given average transmit power
Robust Design of Transmit Waveform and Receive Filter For Colocated MIMO Radar
We consider the problem of angle-robust joint transmit waveform and receive
filter design for colocated Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar, in the
presence of signal-dependent interferences. The design problem is cast as a
max-min optimization problem to maximize the worst-case output
signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) with respect to the unknown
angle of the target of interest. Based on rank-one relaxation and semi-definite
programming (SDP) representation of a nonnegative trigonometric polynomial, a
cyclic optimization algorithm is proposed to tackle this problem. The
effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated via numerical examples.Comment: 6 pages, 13 figures, part of this work was submitted to IEEE Signal

Joint Transmit and Receive Filter Optimization for Sub-Nyquist Delay-Doppler Estimation
In this article, a framework is presented for the joint optimization of the
analog transmit and receive filter with respect to a parameter estimation
problem. At the receiver, conventional signal processing systems restrict the
two-sided bandwidth of the analog pre-filter to the rate of the
analog-to-digital converter to comply with the well-known Nyquist-Shannon
sampling theorem. In contrast, here we consider a transceiver that by design
violates the common paradigm . To this end, at the receiver, we
allow for a higher pre-filter bandwidth and study the achievable
parameter estimation accuracy under a fixed sampling rate when the transmit and
receive filter are jointly optimized with respect to the Bayesian
Cram\'{e}r-Rao lower bound. For the case of delay-Doppler estimation, we
propose to approximate the required Fisher information matrix and solve the
transceiver design problem by an alternating optimization algorithm. The
presented approach allows us to explore the Pareto-optimal region spanned by
transmit and receive filters which are favorable under a weighted mean squared
error criterion. We also discuss the computational complexity of the obtained
transceiver design by visualizing the resulting ambiguity function. Finally, we
verify the performance of the optimized designs by Monte-Carlo simulations of a
likelihood-based estimator.Comment: 15 pages, 16 figure
Multi-stage Antenna Selection for Adaptive Beamforming in MIMO Arrays
Increasing the number of transmit and receive elements in
multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna arrays imposes a substantial
increase in hardware and computational costs. We mitigate this problem by
employing a reconfigurable MIMO array where large transmit and receive arrays
are multiplexed in a smaller set of k baseband signals. We consider four stages
for the MIMO array configuration and propose four different selection
strategies to offer dimensionality reduction in post-processing and achieve
hardware cost reduction in digital signal processing (DSP) and radio-frequency
(RF) stages. We define the problem as a determinant maximization and develop a
unified formulation to decouple the joint problem and select antennas/elements
in various stages in one integrated problem. We then analyze the performance of
the proposed selection approaches and prove that, in terms of the output SINR,
a joint transmit-receive selection method performs best followed by
matched-filter, hybrid and factored selection methods. The theoretical results
are validated numerically, demonstrating that all methods allow an excellent
trade-off between performance and cost.Comment: Submitted for publicatio
Nonregenerative MIMO Relaying with Optimal Transmit Antenna Selection
We derive optimal SNR-based transmit antenna selection rules at the source
and relay for the nonregenerative half duplex MIMO relay channel. While antenna
selection is a suboptimal form of beamforming, it has the advantage that the
optimization is tractable and can be implemented with only a few bits of
feedback from the destination to the source and relay. We compare the bit error
rate of optimal antenna selection at both the source and relay to other
proposed beamforming techniques and propose methods for performing the
necessary limited feedback
