Resource Allocation and Interference Mitigation Techniques for Cooperative Multi-Antenna and Spread Spectrum Wireless Networks
This chapter presents joint interference suppression and power allocation
algorithms for DS-CDMA and MIMO networks with multiple hops and
amplify-and-forward and decode-and-forward (DF) protocols. A scheme for joint
allocation of power levels across the relays and linear interference
suppression is proposed. We also consider another strategy for joint
interference suppression and relay selection that maximizes the diversity
available in the system. Simulations show that the proposed cross-layer
optimization algorithms obtain significant gains in capacity and performance
over existing schemes.Comment: 10 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Multi-User Flexible Coordinated Beamforming using Lattice Reduction for Massive MIMO Systems
The application of precoding algorithms in multi-user massive multiple-input
multiple-output (MU-Massive-MIMO) systems is restricted by the dimensionality
constraint that the number of transmit antennas has to be greater than or equal
to the total number of receive antennas. In this paper, a lattice reduction
(LR)-aided flexible coordinated beamforming (LR-FlexCoBF) algorithm is proposed
to overcome the dimensionality constraint in overloaded MU-Massive-MIMO
systems. A random user selection scheme is integrated with the proposed
LR-FlexCoBF to extend its application to MU-Massive-MIMO systems with arbitary
overloading levels. Simulation results show that significant improvements in
terms of bit error rate (BER) and sum-rate performances can be achieved by the
proposed LR-FlexCoBF precoding algorithm.Comment: 5 figures, Eusipc
Coordinate Tomlinson-Harashima Precoding Design for Overloaded Multi-user MIMO Systems
Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) is a nonlinear processing technique
employed at the transmit side to implement the concept of dirty paper coding
(DPC). The perform of THP, however, is restricted by the dimensionality
constraint that the number of transmit antennas has to be greater or equal to
the total number of receive antennas. In this paper, we propose an iterative
coordinate THP algorithm for the scenarios in which the total number of receive
antennas is larger than the number of transmit antennas. The proposed algorithm
is implemented on two types of THP structures, the decentralized THP (dTHP)
with diagonal weighted filters at the receivers of the users, and the
centralized THP (cTHP) with diagonal weighted filter at the transmitter.
Simulation results show that a much better bit error rate (BER) and sum-rate
performances can be achieved by the proposed iterative coordinate THP compared
to the previous linear art.Comment: 3 figures, 6 pages, ISWCS 2014. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Study of Opportunistic Cooperation Techniques using Jamming and Relays for Physical-Layer Security in Buffer-aided Relay Networks
In this paper, we investigate opportunistic relay and jammer cooperation
schemes in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) buffer-aided relay networks.
The network consists of one source, an arbitrary number of relay nodes,
legitimate users and eavesdroppers, with the constraints of physical layer
security. We propose an algorithm to select a set of relay nodes to enhance the
legitimate users' transmission and another set of relay nodes to perform
jamming of the eavesdroppers. With Inter-Relay interference (IRI) taken into
account, interference cancellation can be implemented to assist the
transmission of the legitimate users. Secondly, IRI can also be used to further
increase the level of harm of the jamming signal to the eavesdroppers. By
exploiting the fact that the jamming signal can be stored at the relay nodes,
we also propose a hybrid algorithm to set a signal-to-interference and noise
ratio (SINR) threshold at the node to determine the type of signal stored at
the relay node. With this separation, the signals with high SINR are delivered
to the users as conventional relay systems and the low SINR performance signals
are stored as potential jamming signals. Simulation results show that the
proposed techniques obtain a significant improvement in secrecy rate over
previously reported algorithms.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure
Study of Buffer-Aided Space-Time Coding for Multiple-Antenna Cooperative Wireless Networks
In this work we propose an adaptive buffer-aided space-time coding scheme for
cooperative wireless networks. A maximum likelihood receiver and adjustable
code vectors are considered subject to a power constraint with an
amplify-and-forward cooperation strategy. Each multiple-antenna relay is
equipped with a buffer and is capable of storing the received symbols before
forwarding them to the destination. We also present an adaptive relay selection
and optimization algorithm, in which the instantaneous signal to noise ratio in
each link is calculated and compared at the destination. An adjustable code
vector obtained by a feedback channel at each relay is employed to form a
space-time coded vector which achieves a higher coding gain than standard
schemes. A stochastic gradient algorithm is developed to compute the parameters
of the adjustable code vector with reduced computational complexity. Simulation
results show that the proposed buffer-aided scheme and algorithm obtain
performance gains over existing schemes.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figure
Adaptive Minimum BER Reduced-Rank Linear Detection for Massive MIMO Systems
In this paper, we propose a novel adaptive reduced-rank strategy for very
large multiuser multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems. The proposed
reduced-rank scheme is based on the concept of joint iterative optimization
(JIO) of filters according to the minimization of the bit error rate (BER) cost
function. The proposed optimization technique adjusts the weights of a
projection matrix and a reduced-rank filter jointly. We develop stochastic
gradient (SG) algorithms for their adaptive implementation and introduce a
novel automatic rank selection method based on the BER criterion. Simulation
results for multiuser MIMO systems show that the proposed adaptive algorithms
significantly outperform existing schemes.Comment: 6 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Adaptive Power Allocation Strategies using DSTC in Cooperative MIMO Networks
Adaptive Power Allocation (PA) algorithms with different criteria for a
cooperative Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) network equipped with
Distributed Space-Time Coding (DSTC) are proposed and evaluated. Joint
constrained optimization algorithms to determine the power allocation
parameters, the channel parameters and the receive filter are proposed for each
transmitted stream in each link. Linear receive filter and maximum-likelihood
(ML) detection are considered with Amplify-and-Forward (AF) and
Decode-and-Forward (DF) cooperation strategies. In the proposed algorithms, the
elements in the PA matrices are optimized at the destination node and then
transmitted back to the relay nodes via a feedback channel. The effects of the
feedback errors are considered. Linear MMSE expressions and the PA matrices
depend on each other and are updated iteratively. Stochastic gradient (SG)
algorithms are developed with reduced computational complexity. Simulation
results show that the proposed algorithms obtain significant performance gains
as compared to existing power allocation schemes.Comment: 5 figures, 9 pages. IET Communications, 201
Study of Joint MSINR and Relay Selection Algorithms for Distributed Beamforming
This paper presents joint maximum signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio
(MSINR) and relay selection algorithms for distributed beamforming. We propose
a joint MSINR and restricted greedy search relay selection (RGSRS) algorithm
with a total relay transmit power constraint that iteratively optimizes both
the beamforming weights at the relays nodes, maximizing the SINR at the
destination. Specifically, we devise a relay selection scheme that based on
greedy search and compare it to other schemes like restricted random relay
selection (RRRS) and restricted exhaustive search relay selection (RESRS). A
complexity analysis is provided and simulation results show that the proposed
joint MSINR and RGSRS algorithm achieves excellent bit error rate (BER) and
SINR performances.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Flexible Widely-Linear Multi-Branch Decision Feedback Detection Algorithms for Massive MIMO Systems
This paper presents widely-linear multi-branch decision feedback detection
techniques for large-scale multiuser multiple-antenna systems. We consider a
scenario with impairments in the radio-frequency chain in which the in-phase
(I) and quadrature (Q) components exhibit an imbalance, which degrades the
receiver performance and originates non-circular signals. A widely-linear
multi-branch decision feedback receiver is developed to mitigate both the
multiuser interference and the I/Q imbalance effects. An iterative detection
and decoding scheme with the proposed receiver and convolutional codes is also
devised. Simulation results show that the proposed techniques outperform
existing algorithms.Comment: 3 figures, 9 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Joint Power Adjustment and Interference Mitigation Techniques for Cooperative Spread Spectrum Systems
This paper presents joint power allocation and interference mitigation
techniques for the downlink of spread spectrum systems which employ multiple
relays and the amplify and forward cooperation strategy. We propose a joint
constrained optimization framework that considers the allocation of power
levels across the relays subject to an individual power constraint and the
design of linear receivers for interference suppression. We derive constrained
minimum mean-squared error (MMSE) expressions for the parameter vectors that
determine the optimal power levels across the relays and the linear receivers.
In order to solve the proposed optimization problem efficiently, we develop
joint adaptive power allocation and interference suppression algorithms that
can be implemented in a distributed fashion. The proposed stochastic gradient
(SG) and recursive least squares (RLS) algorithms mitigate the interference by
adjusting the power levels across the relays and estimating the parameters of
the linear receiver. SG and RLS channel estimation algorithms are also derived
to determine the coefficients of the channels across the base station, the
relays and the destination terminal. The results of simulations show that the
proposed techniques obtain significant gains in performance and capacity over
non-cooperative systems and cooperative schemes with equal power allocation.Comment: 6 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1301.009
