Power Efficient MISO Beamforming for Secure Layered Transmission
This paper studies secure layered video transmission in a multiuser
multiple-input single-output (MISO) beamforming downlink communication system.
The power allocation algorithm design is formulated as a non-convex
optimization problem for minimizing the total transmit power while guaranteeing
a minimum received signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the
desired receiver. In particular, the proposed problem formulation takes into
account the self-protecting architecture of layered transmission and artificial
noise generation to prevent potential information eavesdropping. A
semi-definite programming (SDP) relaxation based power allocation algorithm is
proposed to obtain an upper bound solution. A sufficient condition for the
global optimal solution is examined to reveal the tightness of the upper bound
solution. Subsequently, two suboptimal power allocation schemes with low
computational complexity are proposed for enabling secure layered video
transmission. Simulation results demonstrate significant transmit power savings
achieved by the proposed algorithms and layered transmission compared to the
baseline schemes.Comment: Accepted for presentation at the IEEE Wireless Communications and

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
