A Simplified Scheme of Estimation and Cancellation of Companding Noise for Companded Multicarrier Transmission Systems
Nonlinear companding transform is an efficient method to reduce the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of multicarrier transmission systems. However, the introduced companding noise greatly degrades the bit-error-rate (BER) performance of the companded multicarrier systems. In this paper, a simplified but effective scheme of estimation and cancellation of companding noise for the companded multicarrier transmission system is proposed. By expressing the companded signals as the summation of original signals added with a companding noise component, and subtracting this estimated companding noise from the received signals, the BER performance of the overall system can be significantly improved. Simulation results well confirm the great advantages of the proposed scheme over other conventional decompanding or no decompanding schemes under various situations
Outage Performance Analysis of Multicarrier Relay Selection for Cooperative Networks
In this paper, we analyze the outage performance of two multicarrier relay
selection schemes, i.e. bulk and per-subcarrier selections, for two-hop
orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. To provide a
comprehensive analysis, three forwarding protocols: decode-and-forward (DF),
fixed-gain (FG) amplify-and-forward (AF) and variable-gain (VG) AF relay
systems are considered. We obtain closed-form approximations for the outage
probability and closed-form expressions for the asymptotic outage probability
in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region for all cases. Our analysis is
verified by Monte Carlo simulations, and provides an analytical framework for
multicarrier systems with relay selection
Opportunistic Interference Management for Multicarrier systems
We study opportunistic interference management when there is bursty
interference in parallel 2-user linear deterministic interference channels. A
degraded message set communication problem is formulated to exploit the
burstiness of interference in M subcarriers allocated to each user. We focus on
symmetric rate requirements based on the number of interfered subcarriers
rather than the exact set of interfered subcarriers. Inner bounds are obtained
using erasure coding, signal-scale alignment and Han-Kobayashi coding strategy.
Tight outer bounds for a variety of regimes are obtained using the El
Gamal-Costa injective interference channel bounds and a sliding window subset
entropy inequality. The result demonstrates an application of techniques from
multilevel diversity coding to interference channels. We also conjecture outer
bounds indicating the sub-optimality of erasure coding across subcarriers in
certain regimes.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures, a shorter version of this work will appear in the

Waveform Design for 5G and Beyond
5G is envisioned to improve major key performance indicators (KPIs), such as
peak data rate, spectral efficiency, power consumption, complexity, connection
density, latency, and mobility. This chapter aims to provide a complete picture
of the ongoing 5G waveform discussions and overviews the major candidates. It
provides a brief description of the waveform and reveals the 5G use cases and
waveform design requirements. The chapter presents the main features of cyclic
prefix-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) that is deployed in
4G LTE systems. CP-OFDM is the baseline of the 5G waveform discussions since
the performance of a new waveform is usually compared with it. The chapter
examines the essential characteristics of the major waveform candidates along
with the related advantages and disadvantages. It summarizes and compares the
key features of different waveforms.Comment: 22 pages, 21 figures, 2 tables; accepted version (The URL for the

Near-Instantaneously Adaptive HSDPA-Style OFDM Versus MC-CDMA Transceivers for WIFI, WIMAX, and Next-Generation Cellular Systems
Burts-by-burst (BbB) adaptive high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) style multicarrier systems are reviewed, identifying their most critical design aspects. These systems exhibit numerous attractive features, rendering them eminently eligible for employment in next-generation wireless systems. It is argued that BbB-adaptive or symbol-by-symbol adaptive orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) modems counteract the near instantaneous channel quality variations and hence attain an increased throughput or robustness in comparison to their fixed-mode counterparts. Although they act quite differently, various diversity techniques, such as Rake receivers and space-time block coding (STBC) are also capable of mitigating the channel quality variations in their effort to reduce the bit error ratio (BER), provided that the individual antenna elements experience independent fading. By contrast, in the presence of correlated fading imposed by shadowing or time-variant multiuser interference, the benefits of space-time coding erode and it is unrealistic to expect that a fixed-mode space-time coded system remains capable of maintaining a near-constant BER
