MIMO-UFMC Transceiver Schemes for Millimeter Wave Wireless Communications
The UFMC modulation is among the most considered solutions for the
realization of beyond-OFDM air interfaces for future wireless networks. This
paper focuses on the design and analysis of an UFMC transceiver equipped with
multiple antennas and operating at millimeter wave carrier frequencies. The
paper provides the full mathematical model of a MIMO-UFMC transceiver, taking
into account the presence of hybrid analog/digital beamformers at both ends of
the communication links. Then, several detection structures are proposed, both
for the case of single-packet isolated transmission, and for the case of
multiple-packet continuous transmission. In the latter situation, the paper
also considers the case in which no guard time among adjacent packets is
inserted, trading off an increased level of interference with higher values of
spectral efficiency. At the analysis stage, the several considered detection
structures and transmission schemes are compared in terms of bit-error-rate,
root-mean-square-error, and system throughput. The numerical results show that
the proposed transceiver algorithms are effective and that the linear MMSE data
detector is capable of well managing the increased interference brought by the
removal of guard times among consecutive packets, thus yielding throughput
gains of about 10 - 13 . The effect of phase noise at the receiver is also
numerically assessed, and it is shown that the recursive implementation of the
linear MMSE exhibits some degree of robustness against this disturbance
Asymptotic Moments for Interference Mitigation in Correlated Fading Channels
We consider a certain class of large random matrices, composed of independent
column vectors with zero mean and different covariance matrices, and derive
asymptotically tight deterministic approximations of their moments. This random
matrix model arises in several wireless communication systems of recent
interest, such as distributed antenna systems or large antenna arrays.
Computing the linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) detector in such systems
requires the inversion of a large covariance matrix which becomes prohibitively
complex as the number of antennas and users grows. We apply the derived moment
results to the design of a low-complexity polynomial expansion detector which
approximates the matrix inverse by a matrix polynomial and study its asymptotic
performance. Simulation results corroborate the analysis and evaluate the
performance for finite system dimensions.Comment: 7 pages, 2 figures, to be presented at IEEE International Symposium
