Simultaneous Bidirectional Link Selection in Full Duplex MIMO Systems
In this paper, we consider a point to point full duplex (FD) MIMO
communication system. We assume that each node is equipped with an arbitrary
number of antennas which can be used for transmission or reception. With FD
radios, bidirectional information exchange between two nodes can be achieved at
the same time. In this paper we design bidirectional link selection schemes by
selecting a pair of transmit and receive antenna at both ends for
communications in each direction to maximize the weighted sum rate or minimize
the weighted sum symbol error rate (SER). The optimal selection schemes require
exhaustive search, so they are highly complex. To tackle this problem, we
propose a Serial-Max selection algorithm, which approaches the exhaustive
search methods with much lower complexity. In the Serial-Max method, the
antenna pairs with maximum "obtainable SINR" at both ends are selected in a
two-step serial way. The performance of the proposed Serial-Max method is
analyzed, and the closed-form expressions of the average weighted sum rate and
the weighted sum SER are derived. The analysis is validated by simulations.
Both analytical and simulation results show that as the number of antennas
increases, the Serial-Max method approaches the performance of the
exhaustive-search schemes in terms of sum rate and sum SER
End-to-End Joint Antenna Selection Strategy and Distributed Compress and Forward Strategy for Relay Channels
Multi-hop relay channels use multiple relay stages, each with multiple relay
nodes, to facilitate communication between a source and destination.
Previously, distributed space-time codes were proposed to maximize the
achievable diversity-multiplexing tradeoff, however, they fail to achieve all
the points of the optimal diversity-multiplexing tradeoff. In the presence of a
low-rate feedback link from the destination to each relay stage and the source,
this paper proposes an end-to-end antenna selection (EEAS) strategy as an
alternative to distributed space-time codes. The EEAS strategy uses a subset of
antennas of each relay stage for transmission of the source signal to the
destination with amplify and forwarding at each relay stage. The subsets are
chosen such that they maximize the end-to-end mutual information at the
destination. The EEAS strategy achieves the corner points of the optimal
diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (corresponding to maximum diversity gain and
maximum multiplexing gain) and achieves better diversity gain at intermediate
values of multiplexing gain, versus the best known distributed space-time
coding strategies. A distributed compress and forward (CF) strategy is also
proposed to achieve all points of the optimal diversity-multiplexing tradeoff
for a two-hop relay channel with multiple relay nodes.Comment: Accepted for publication in the special issue on cooperative

Media-Based MIMO: A New Frontier in Wireless Communications
The idea of Media-based Modulation (MBM), is based on embedding information
in the variations of the transmission media (channel state). This is in
contrast to legacy wireless systems where data is embedded in a Radio Frequency
(RF) source prior to the transmit antenna. MBM offers several advantages vs.
legacy systems, including "additivity of information over multiple receive
antennas", and "inherent diversity over a static fading channel". MBM is
particularly suitable for transmitting high data rates using a single transmit
and multiple receive antennas (Single Input-Multiple Output Media-Based
Modulation, or SIMO-MBM). However, complexity issues limit the amount of data
that can be embedded in the channel state using a single transmit unit. To
address this shortcoming, the current article introduces the idea of Layered
Multiple Input-Multiple Output Media-Based Modulation (LMIMO-MBM). Relying on a
layered structure, LMIMO-MBM can significantly reduce both hardware and
algorithmic complexities, as well as the training overhead, vs. SIMO-MBM.
Simulation results show excellent performance in terms of Symbol Error Rate
(SER) vs. Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). For example, a LMIMO-MBM is
capable of transmitting bits of information per (complex) channel-use,
with SER at dB (or SER
at dB). This performance is achieved using a single transmission
and without adding any redundancy for Forward-Error-Correction (FEC). This
means, in addition to its excellent SER vs. energy/rate performance, MBM
relaxes the need for complex FEC structures, and thereby minimizes the
transmission delay. Overall, LMIMO-MBM provides a promising alternative to MIMO
and Massive MIMO for the realization of 5G wireless networks.Comment: 26 pages, 11 figures, additional examples are given to further

Delay Performance of MISO Wireless Communications
Ultra-reliable, low latency communications (URLLC) are currently attracting
significant attention due to the emergence of mission-critical applications and
device-centric communication. URLLC will entail a fundamental paradigm shift
from throughput-oriented system design towards holistic designs for guaranteed
and reliable end-to-end latency. A deep understanding of the delay performance
of wireless networks is essential for efficient URLLC systems. In this paper,
we investigate the network layer performance of multiple-input, single-output
(MISO) systems under statistical delay constraints. We provide closed-form
expressions for MISO diversity-oriented service process and derive
probabilistic delay bounds using tools from stochastic network calculus. In
particular, we analyze transmit beamforming with perfect and imperfect channel
knowledge and compare it with orthogonal space-time codes and antenna
selection. The effect of transmit power, number of antennas, and finite
blocklength channel coding on the delay distribution is also investigated. Our
higher layer performance results reveal key insights of MISO channels and
provide useful guidelines for the design of ultra-reliable communication
systems that can guarantee the stringent URLLC latency requirements.Comment: This work has been submitted to the IEEE for possible publication.
