Robust Transceiver Design for MISO Interference Channel with Energy Harvesting
In this paper, we consider multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO)
interference channel where the received signal is divided into two parts for
information decoding and energy harvesting (EH), respectively. The transmit
beamforming vectors and receive power splitting (PS) ratios are jointly
designed in order to minimize the total transmission power subject to both
signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and EH constraints. Most joint
beamforming and power splitting (JBPS) designs assume that perfect channel
state information (CSI) is available; however CSI errors are inevitable in
practice. To overcome this limitation, we study the robust JBPS design problem
assuming a norm-bounded error (NBE) model for the CSI. Three different solution
approaches are proposed for the robust JBPS problem, each one leading to a
different computational algorithm. Firstly, an efficient semidefinite
relaxation (SDR)-based approach is presented to solve the highly non-convex
JBPS problem, where the latter can be formulated as a semidefinite programming
(SDP) problem. A rank-one recovery method is provided to recover a robust
feasible solution to the original problem. Secondly, based on second order cone
programming (SOCP) relaxation, we propose a low complexity approach with the
aid of a closed-form robust solution recovery method. Thirdly, a new iterative
method is also provided which can achieve near-optimal performance when the
SDR-based algorithm results in a higher-rank solution. We prove that this
iterative algorithm monotonically converges to a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT)
solution of the robust JBPS problem. Finally, simulation results are presented
to validate the robustness and efficiency of the proposed algorithms.Comment: 13 pages, 8 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Joint Transceiver Design Algorithms for Multiuser MISO Relay Systems with Energy Harvesting
In this paper, we investigate a multiuser relay system with simultaneous
wireless information and power transfer. Assuming that both base station (BS)
and relay station (RS) are equipped with multiple antennas, this work studies
the joint transceiver design problem for the BS beamforming vectors, the RS
amplify-and-forward transformation matrix and the power splitting (PS) ratios
at the single-antenna receivers. Firstly, an iterative algorithm based on
alternating optimization (AO) and with guaranteed convergence is proposed to
successively optimize the transceiver coefficients. Secondly, a novel design
scheme based on switched relaying (SR) is proposed that can significantly
reduce the computational complexity and overhead of the AO based designs while
maintaining a similar performance. In the proposed SR scheme, the RS is
equipped with a codebook of permutation matrices. For each permutation matrix,
a latent transceiver is designed which consists of BS beamforming vectors,
optimally scaled RS permutation matrix and receiver PS ratios. For the given
CSI, the optimal transceiver with the lowest total power consumption is
selected for transmission. We propose a concave-convex procedure based and
subgradient-type iterative algorithms for the non-robust and robust latent
transceiver designs. Simulation results are presented to validate the
effectiveness of all the proposed algorithms
MU-MIMO Communications with MIMO Radar: From Co-existence to Joint Transmission
Beamforming techniques are proposed for a joint multi-input-multi-output
(MIMO) radar-communication (RadCom) system, where a single device acts both as
a radar and a communication base station (BS) by simultaneously communicating
with downlink users and detecting radar targets. Two operational options are
considered, where we first split the antennas into two groups, one for radar
and the other for communication. Under this deployment, the radar signal is
designed to fall into the null-space of the downlink channel. The communication
beamformer is optimized such that the beampattern obtained matches the radar's
beampattern while satisfying the communication performance requirements. To
reduce the optimizations' constraints, we consider a second operational option,
where all the antennas transmit a joint waveform that is shared by both radar
and communications. In this case, we formulate an appropriate probing
beampattern, while guaranteeing the performance of the downlink communications.
By incorporating the SINR constraints into objective functions as penalty
terms, we further simplify the original beamforming designs to weighted
optimizations, and solve them by efficient manifold algorithms. Numerical
results show that the shared deployment outperforms the separated case
significantly, and the proposed weighted optimizations achieve a similar
performance to the original optimizations, despite their significantly lower
computational complexity.Comment: 15 pages, 15 figures. This work has been submitted to the IEEE for
