Bounds on the Sum Capacity of Synchronous Binary CDMA Channels
In this paper, we obtain a family of lower bounds for the sum capacity of
Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) channels assuming binary inputs and binary
signature codes in the presence of additive noise with an arbitrary
distribution. The envelope of this family gives a relatively tight lower bound
in terms of the number of users, spreading gain and the noise distribution. The
derivation methods for the noiseless and the noisy channels are different but
when the noise variance goes to zero, the noisy channel bound approaches the
noiseless case. The behavior of the lower bound shows that for small noise
power, the number of users can be much more than the spreading gain without any
significant loss of information (overloaded CDMA). A conjectured upper bound is
also derived under the usual assumption that the users send out equally likely
binary bits in the presence of additive noise with an arbitrary distribution.
As the noise level increases, and/or, the ratio of the number of users and the
spreading gain increases, the conjectured upper bound approaches the lower
bound. We have also derived asymptotic limits of our bounds that can be
compared to a formula that Tanaka obtained using techniques from statistical
physics; his bound is close to that of our conjectured upper bound for large
scale systems.Comment: to be published in IEEE Transactions on Information Theor
High Capacity CDMA and Collaborative Techniques
The thesis investigates new approaches to increase the user capacity and improve the error
performance of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) by employing adaptive interference cancellation
and collaborative spreading and space diversity techniques. Collaborative Coding Multiple
Access (CCMA) is also investigated as a separate technique and combined with CDMA. The
advantages and shortcomings of CDMA and CCMA are analysed and new techniques for both the
uplink and downlink are proposed and evaluated.
Multiple access interference (MAI) problem in the uplink of CDMA is investigated first. The
practical issues of multiuser detection (MUD) techniques are reviewed and a novel blind adaptive
approach to interference cancellation (IC) is proposed. It exploits the constant modulus (CM)
property of digital signals to blindly suppress interference during the despreading process and obtain
amplitude estimation with minimum mean squared error for use in cancellation stages. Two
new blind adaptive receiver designs employing successive and parallel interference cancellation
architectures using the CM algorithm (CMA) referred to as βCMA-SICβ and βBA-PICβ, respectively,
are presented. These techniques have shown to offer near single user performance for large
number of users. It is shown to increase the user capacity by approximately two fold compared
with conventional IC receivers. The spectral efficiency analysis of the techniques based on output
signal-to interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) also shows significant gain in data rate. Furthermore,
an effective and low complexity blind adaptive subcarrier combining (BASC) technique using a
simple gradient descent based algorithm is proposed for Multicarrier-CDMA. It suppresses MAI
without any knowledge of channel amplitudes and allows large number of users compared with
equal gain and maximum ratio combining techniques normally used in practice.
New user collaborative schemes are proposed and analysed theoretically and by simulations
in different channel conditions to achieve spatial diversity for uplink of CCMA and CDMA. First,
a simple transmitter diversity and its equivalent user collaborative diversity techniques for CCMA
are designed and analysed. Next, a new user collaborative scheme with successive interference
cancellation for uplink of CDMA referred to as collaborative SIC (C-SIC) is investigated to reduce
MAI and achieve improved diversity. To further improve the performance of C-SIC under high
system loading conditions, Collaborative Blind Adaptive SIC (C-BASIC) scheme is proposed.
It is shown to minimize the residual MAI, leading to improved user capacity and a more robust
system. It is known that collaborative diversity schemes incur loss in throughput due to the need of
orthogonal time/frequency slots for relaying sourceβs data. To address this problem, finally a novel
near-unity-rate scheme also referred to as bandwidth efficient collaborative diversity (BECD) is proposed and evaluated for CDMA. Under this scheme, pairs of users share a single spreading sequence to exchange and forward their data employing a simple superposition or space-time
encoding methods. At the receiver collaborative joint detection is performed to separate each
paired usersβ data. It is shown that the scheme can achieve full diversity gain at no extra bandwidth
as inter-user channel SNR becomes high.
A novel approach of βUser Collaborationβ is introduced to increase the user capacity of CDMA
for both the downlink and uplink. First, collaborative group spreading technique for the downlink
of overloaded CDMA system is introduced. It allows the sharing of the same single spreading
sequence for more than one user belonging to the same group. This technique is referred to as
Collaborative Spreading CDMA downlink (CS-CDMA-DL). In this technique T-user collaborative
coding is used for each group to form a composite codeword signal of the users and then a
single orthogonal sequence is used for the group. At each userβs receiver, decoding of composite
codeword is carried out to extract the userβs own information while maintaining a high SINR performance.
To improve the bit error performance of CS-CDMA-DL in Rayleigh fading conditions,
Collaborative Space-time Spreading (C-STS) technique is proposed by combining the collaborative
coding multiple access and space-time coding principles. A new scheme for uplink of CDMA
using the βUser Collaborationβ approach, referred to as CS-CDMA-UL is presented next. When
usersβ channels are independent (uncorrelated), significantly higher user capacity can be achieved
by grouping multiple users to share the same spreading sequence and performing MUD on per
group basis followed by a low complexity ML decoding at the receiver. This approach has shown
to support much higher number of users than the available sequences while also maintaining the
low receiver complexity. For improved performance under highly correlated channel conditions,
T-user collaborative coding is also investigated within the CS-CDMA-UL system
High capacity multiuser multiantenna communication techniques
One of the main issues involved in the development of future wireless communication systems is the multiple access technique used to efficiently share the available spectrum among users. In rich multipath environment, spatial dimension can be exploited to meet the increasing number of users and their demands without consuming extra bandwidth and power. Therefore, it is utilized in the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology to increase the spectral efficiency significantly. However, multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) systems are still challenging to be widely adopted in next generation standards. In this thesis, new techniques are proposed to increase the channel and user capacity and improve the error performance of MU-MIMO over Rayleigh fading channel environment.
For realistic system design and performance evaluation, channel correlation is considered as one of the main channel impurities due its severe influence on capacity and reliability. Two simple methods called generalized successive coloring technique (GSCT) and generalized iterative coloring technique (GICT) are proposed for accurate generation of correlated Rayleigh fading channels (CRFC). They are designed to overcome the shortcomings of existing methods by avoiding factorization of desired covariance matrix of the Gaussian samples. The superiority of these techniques is demonstrated by extensive simulations of different practical system scenarios.
To mitigate the effects of channel correlations, a novel constellation constrained MU-MIMO (CC-MU-MIMO) scheme is proposed using transmit signal design and maximum likelihood joint detection (MLJD) at the receiver. It is designed to maximize the channel capacity and error performance based on principles of maximizing the minimum Euclidean distance (dmin) of composite received signals. Two signal design methods named as unequal power allocation (UPA) and rotation constellation (RC) are utilized to resolve the detection ambiguity caused by correlation. Extensive analysis and simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of considered scheme compared with conventional MU-MIMO. Furthermore, significant gain in SNR is achieved particularly in moderate to high correlations which have direct impact to maintain high user capacity.
A new efficient receive antenna selection (RAS) technique referred to as phase difference based selection (PDBS) is proposed for single and multiuser MIMO systems to maximize the capacity over CRFC. It utilizes the received signal constellation to select the subset of antennas with highest (dmin) constellations due to its direct impact on the capacity and BER performance. A low complexity algorithm is designed by employing the Euclidean norm of channel matrix rows with their corresponding phase differences. Capacity analysis and simulation results show that PDBS outperforms norm based selection (NBS) and near to optimal selection (OS) for all correlation and SNR values. This technique provides fast RAS to capture most of the gains promised by multiantenna systems over different channel conditions.
Finally, novel group layered MU-MIMO (GL-MU-MIMO) scheme is introduced to exploit the available spectrum for higher user capacity with affordable complexity. It takes the advantages of spatial difference among users and power control at base station to increase the number of users beyond the available number of RF chains. It is achieved by dividing the users into two groups according to their received power, high power group (HPG) and low power group (LPG). Different configurations of low complexity group layered multiuser detection (GL-MUD) and group power allocation ratio (Ξ·) are utilized to provide a valuable tradeoff between complexity and overall system performance. Furthermore, RAS diversity is incorporated by using NBS and a new selection algorithm called HPG-PDBS to increase the channel capacity and enhance the error performance. Extensive analysis and simulations demonstrate the superiority of proposed scheme compared with conventional MU-MIMO. By using appropriate value of (Ξ·), it shows higher sum rate capacity and substantial increase in the user capacity up to two-fold at target BER and SNR values
Deep Learning-Aided Multicarrier Systems
This paper proposes a deep learning (DL)-aided multicarrier (MC) system operating on fading channels, where both modulation and demodulation blocks are modeled by deep neural networks (DNNs), regarded as the encoder and decoder of an autoencoder (AE) architecture, respectively. Unlike existing AE-based systems, which incorporate domain knowledge of a channel equalizer to suppress the effects of wireless channels, the proposed scheme, termed as MC-AE, directly feeds the decoder with the channel state information and received signal, which are then processed in a fully data-driven manner. This new approach enables MC-AE to jointly learn the encoder and decoder to optimize the diversity and coding gains over fading channels. In particular, the block error rate of MC-AE is analyzed to show its higher performance gains than existing hand-crafted baselines, such as various recent index modulation-based MC schemes. We then extend MC-AE to multiuser scenarios, wherein the resultant system is termed as MU-MC-AE. Accordingly, two novel DNN structures for uplink and downlink MU-MC-AE transmissions are proposed, along with a novel cost function that ensures a fast training convergence and fairness among users. Finally, simulation results are provided to show the superiority of the proposed DL-based schemes over current baselines, in terms of both the error performance and receiver complexity

Extending the user capacity of MU-MIMO systems with low detection complexity and receive diversity
Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) based technologies are considered as an integral part of the upcoming 5G communications to fulfil the ever-increasing demands of wireless applications with high spectral efficiency requirements. However, in uplink multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) channels, the number of allowed users is limited by the number of receive antennas associated with radio frequency (RF) chains at the base-station and the complexity burden of multiuser detection (MUD). In this paper, a novel group layer MU-MIMO scheme with low complexity MUD is proposed to increase the number of served users well beyond the available RF chains. By taking the advantage of power control and inherent path loss in cellular systems, the allowed users are divided into groups based on their received power. Efficient group power allocation and group layer MUD (GL-MUD) are utilized to provide a valuable tradeoff between complexity and achieved performance. Furthermore, when more receive antennas than RF chains is implemented, a generalized norm based antenna selection algorithm is proposed to enhance the error performance. Symbol error probability expressions are derived and the effectiveness of proposed scheme is demonstrated through numerical simulations compared with the conventional MU-MIMO and non-orthogonal multiple-access (NOMA) systems over Rayleigh fading channels. The results show a substantial increase in user capacity up to two-fold for the available number of RF chains. In addition, significant signal-to-noise ratio gain is achieved using GL-MUD compared with different MUD techniques
Spatio-Temporal processing for Optimum Uplink-Downlink WCDMA Systems
The capacity of a cellular system is limited by two different phenomena, namely
multipath fading and multiple access interference (MAl). A Two Dimensional (2-D)
receiver combats both of these by processing the signal both in the spatial and temporal
domain. An ideal 2-D receiver would perform joint space-time processing, but at the
price of high computational complexity. In this research we investigate computationally
simpler technique termed as a Beamfom1er-Rake. In a Beamformer-Rake, the output of a
beamfom1er is fed into a succeeding temporal processor to take advantage of both the
beamformer and Rake receiver. Wireless service providers throughout the world are
working to introduce the third generation (3G) and beyond (3G) cellular service that will
provide higher data rates and better spectral efficiency. Wideband COMA (WCDMA)
has been widely accepted as one of the air interfaces for 3G. A Beamformer-Rake
receiver can be an effective solution to provide the receivers enhanced capabilities
needed to achieve the required performance of a WCDMA system.
We consider three different Pilot Symbol Assisted (PSA) beamforming techniques,
Direct Matrix Inversion (DMI), Least-Mean Square (LMS) and Recursive Least Square
(RLS) adaptive algorithms. Geometrically Based Single Bounce (GBSB) statistical
Circular channel model is considered, which is more suitable for array processing, and
conductive to RAKE combining. The performances of the Beam former-Rake receiver are
evaluated in this channel model as a function of the number of antenna elements and
RAKE fingers, in which are evaluated for the uplink WCDMA system. It is shown that,
the Beamformer-Rake receiver outperforms the conventional RAKE receiver and the
conventional beamformer by a significant margin. Also, we optimize and develop a
mathematical formulation for the output Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR)
of a Beam former-Rake receiver.
In this research, also, we develop, simulate and evaluate the SINR and Signal to Noise
Ratio (Et!Nol performances of an adaptive beamforming technique in the WCDMA
system for downlink. The performance is then compared with an omnidirectional antenna
system. Simulation shows that the best perfom1ance can be achieved when all the mobiles
with same Angle-of-Arrival (AOA) and different distance from base station are formed in
one beam
Multiuser MIMO-OFDM for Next-Generation Wireless Systems
This overview portrays the 40-year evolution of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) research. The amelioration of powerful multicarrier OFDM arrangements with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems has numerous benefits, which are detailed in this treatise. We continue by highlighting the limitations of conventional detection and channel estimation techniques designed for multiuser MIMO OFDM systems in the so-called rank-deficient scenarios, where the number of users supported or the number of transmit antennas employed exceeds the number of receiver antennas. This is often encountered in practice, unless we limit the number of users granted access in the base stationβs or radio portβs coverage area. Following a historical perspective on the associated design problems and their state-of-the-art solutions, the second half of this treatise details a range of classic multiuser detectors (MUDs) designed for MIMO-OFDM systems and characterizes their achievable performance. A further section aims for identifying novel cutting-edge genetic algorithm (GA)-aided detector solutions, which have found numerous applications in wireless communications in recent years. In an effort to stimulate the cross pollination of ideas across the machine learning, optimization, signal processing, and wireless communications research communities, we will review the broadly applicable principles of various GA-assisted optimization techniques, which were recently proposed also for employment inmultiuser MIMO OFDM. In order to stimulate new research, we demonstrate that the family of GA-aided MUDs is capable of achieving a near-optimum performance at the cost of a significantly lower computational complexity than that imposed by their optimum maximum-likelihood (ML) MUD aided counterparts. The paper is concluded by outlining a range of future research options that may find their way into next-generation wireless systems
