Study the Effect of Co-Channel Interference in STC MIMO-OFDM System and Mitigation of CCI using Beamforming Technique
In this modern age of high speed wireless data communication, Multiple input multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) schemes have recently drawn wide interests due to their capability of high data rate transmission over multipath fading channels. This thesis work introduces the study of multi- user and multi-antenna MIMO-OFDM systems. In this work, the performances of two main classes of MIMO-OFM system i.e. multi-user and multi-antenna MIMO-ODM techniques have been studied. The transmitted data is sent using BPSK, QPSK modulation techniques. The performance of the system in Rayleigh and AWGN channel is studied. Space time coding technique also used in transmitting side of the multi-antenna MIMO system.Study and analysis of the effect of co-channel interference over wireless communication system is considered the main objective of this project work .Beamforming technique is one of the best techniques to mitigate co-channel interference. There are several beamforming techniques like LMS, RLS style beamforming techniques. LMS style adaptive beamforming technique is applied to the system. The performance of the LMS style beamforming technique for mitigation of co-channel interference has been analyzed for different modulation techniques.The performance comparison between the adaptive beamforming and null steering beamforming techniques is carried out for the space time coded MIMO-OFDM system. From the performance analysis, it is observed that to mitigate the co-channel interference in ST coded MIMO-OFDM system, adaptive beamforming technique outperforms the method based on the null steering beamforming
Interference-Mitigating Waveform Design for Next-Generation Wireless Systems
A brief historical perspective of the evolution of waveform designs employed in consecutive generations of wireless communications systems is provided, highlighting the range of often conflicting demands on the various waveform characteristics. As the culmination of recent advances in the field the underlying benefits of various Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) schemes are highlighted and exemplified. As an integral part of the appropriate waveform design, cognizance is given to the particular choice of the duplexing scheme used for supporting full-duplex communications and it is demonstrated that Time Division Duplexing (TDD) is substantially outperformed by Frequency Division Duplexing (FDD), unless the TDD scheme is combined with further sophisticated scheduling, MIMOs and/or adaptive modulation/coding. It is also argued that the specific choice of the Direct-Sequence (DS) spreading codes invoked in DS-CDMA predetermines the properties of the system. It is demonstrated that a specifically designed family of spreading codes exhibits a so-called interference-free window (IFW) and hence the resultant system is capable of outperforming its standardised counterpart employing classic Orthogonal Variable Spreading Factor (OVSF) codes under realistic dispersive channel conditions, provided that the interfering multi-user and multipath components arrive within this IFW. This condition may be ensured with the aid of quasisynchronous adaptive timing advance control. However, a limitation of the system is that the number of spreading codes exhibiting a certain IFW is limited, although this problem may be mitigated with the aid of novel code design principles, employing a combination of several spreading sequences in the time-frequency and spatial-domain. The paper is concluded by quantifying the achievable user load of a UTRA-like TDD Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system employing Loosely Synchronized (LS) spreading codes exhibiting an IFW in comparison to that of its counterpart using OVSF codes. Both system's performance is enhanced using beamforming MIMOs
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
Channel Estimation for mmWave Massive MIMO Based Access and Backhaul in Ultra-Dense Network
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive MIMO used for access and backhaul in
ultra-dense network (UDN) has been considered as the promising 5G technique. We
consider such an heterogeneous network (HetNet) that ultra-dense small base
stations (BSs) exploit mmWave massive MIMO for access and backhaul, while
macrocell BS provides the control service with low frequency band. However, the
channel estimation for mmWave massive MIMO can be challenging, since the pilot
overhead to acquire the channels associated with a large number of antennas in
mmWave massive MIMO can be prohibitively high. This paper proposes a structured
compressive sensing (SCS)-based channel estimation scheme, where the angular
sparsity of mmWave channels is exploited to reduce the required pilot overhead.
Specifically, since the path loss for non-line-of-sight paths is much larger
than that for line-of-sight paths, the mmWave massive channels in the angular
domain appear the obvious sparsity. By exploiting such sparsity, the required
pilot overhead only depends on the small number of dominated multipath.
Moreover, the sparsity within the system bandwidth is almost unchanged, which
can be exploited for the further improved performance. Simulation results
demonstrate that the proposed scheme outperforms its counterpart, and it can
approach the performance bound.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures. Millimeter-wave (mmWave), mmWave massive MIMO,

Multiuser MIMO-OFDM for Next-Generation Wireless Systems
This overview portrays the 40-year evolution of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) research. The amelioration of powerful multicarrier OFDM arrangements with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems has numerous benefits, which are detailed in this treatise. We continue by highlighting the limitations of conventional detection and channel estimation techniques designed for multiuser MIMO OFDM systems in the so-called rank-deficient scenarios, where the number of users supported or the number of transmit antennas employed exceeds the number of receiver antennas. This is often encountered in practice, unless we limit the number of users granted access in the base stationβs or radio portβs coverage area. Following a historical perspective on the associated design problems and their state-of-the-art solutions, the second half of this treatise details a range of classic multiuser detectors (MUDs) designed for MIMO-OFDM systems and characterizes their achievable performance. A further section aims for identifying novel cutting-edge genetic algorithm (GA)-aided detector solutions, which have found numerous applications in wireless communications in recent years. In an effort to stimulate the cross pollination of ideas across the machine learning, optimization, signal processing, and wireless communications research communities, we will review the broadly applicable principles of various GA-assisted optimization techniques, which were recently proposed also for employment inmultiuser MIMO OFDM. In order to stimulate new research, we demonstrate that the family of GA-aided MUDs is capable of achieving a near-optimum performance at the cost of a significantly lower computational complexity than that imposed by their optimum maximum-likelihood (ML) MUD aided counterparts. The paper is concluded by outlining a range of future research options that may find their way into next-generation wireless systems
