Dynamic Resource Allocation in Cognitive Radio Networks: A Convex Optimization Perspective
This article provides an overview of the state-of-art results on
communication resource allocation over space, time, and frequency for emerging
cognitive radio (CR) wireless networks. Focusing on the
interference-power/interference-temperature (IT) constraint approach for CRs to
protect primary radio transmissions, many new and challenging problems
regarding the design of CR systems are formulated, and some of the
corresponding solutions are shown to be obtainable by restructuring some
classic results known for traditional (non-CR) wireless networks. It is
demonstrated that convex optimization plays an essential role in solving these
problems, in a both rigorous and efficient way. Promising research directions
on interference management for CR and other related multiuser communication
systems are discussed.Comment: to appear in IEEE Signal Processing Magazine, special issue on convex

Secure Beamforming For MIMO Broadcasting With Wireless Information And Power Transfer
This paper considers a basic MIMO information-energy (I-E) broadcast system,
where a multi-antenna transmitter transmits information and energy
simultaneously to a multi-antenna information receiver and a dual-functional
multi-antenna energy receiver which is also capable of decoding information.
Due to the open nature of wireless medium and the dual purpose of information
and energy transmission, secure information transmission while ensuring
efficient energy harvesting is a critical issue for such a broadcast system.
Assuming that physical layer security techniques are applied to the system to
ensure secure transmission from the transmitter to the information receiver, we
study beamforming design to maximize the achievable secrecy rate subject to a
total power constraint and an energy harvesting constraint. First, based on
semidefinite relaxation, we propose global optimal solutions to the secrecy
rate maximization (SRM) problem in the single-stream case and a specific
full-stream case where the difference of Gram matrices of the channel matrices
is positive semidefinite. Then, we propose a simple iterative algorithm named
inexact block coordinate descent (IBCD) algorithm to tackle the SRM problem of
general case with arbitrary number of streams. We proves that the IBCD
algorithm can monotonically converge to a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) solution to
the SRM problem. Furthermore, we extend the IBCD algorithm to the joint
beamforming and artificial noise design problem. Finally, simulations are
performed to validate the performance of the proposed beamforming algorithms.Comment: Submitted to journal for possible publication. First submission to

A Rate-Splitting Approach To Robust Multiuser MISO Transmission
For multiuser MISO systems with bounded uncertainties in the Channel State
Information (CSI), we consider two classical robust design problems: maximizing
the minimum rate subject to a transmit power constraint, and power minimization
under a rate constraint. Contrary to conventional strategies, we propose a
Rate-Splitting (RS) strategy where each message is divided into two parts, a
common part and a private part. All common parts are packed into one super
common message encoded using a shared codebook and decoded by all users, while
private parts are independently encoded and retrieved by their corresponding
users. We prove that RS-based designs achieve higher max-min Degrees of Freedom
(DoF) compared to conventional designs (NoRS) for uncertainty regions that
scale with SNR. For the special case of non-scaling uncertainty regions, RS
contrasts with NoRS and achieves a non-saturating max-min rate. In the power
minimization problem, RS is shown to combat the feasibility problem arising
from multiuser interference in NoRS. A robust design of precoders for RS is
proposed, and performance gains over NoRS are demonstrated through simulations.Comment: To appear in ICASSP 201
