Performance analysis of MIMO-SESS with Alamouti scheme over Rayleigh fading channels

Las unidades fraseológicas han estado presentes en los repertorios desde los comienzos de la lexicografía. Y no solamente en los diccionarios generales, sino también en las catalogaciones especializadas, tanto de naturaleza monolingüe como bilingüe. No obstante, siempre ha existido dificultad terminológica para la categorización de los diferentes fenómenos del discurso repetido. Si bien esto no ha sido un inconveniente para que se hayan publicado numerosas compilaciones, sobre todo de refranes en un principio, ya que en la actualidad, fundamentalmente, gracias al auge de los estudios teóricos sobre fraseología, han proliferado otras obras (algunas aplicadas a la glosodidáctica, dada su importancia hoy en día) en las que se da cabida con mayor frecuencia a enunciados de valor específico y a locuciones; en unas ocasiones, ahondando en el origen que les dio entidad y, en otras, estableciendo etiquetados precisos que hasta el momento solían estar ausentes, pero con la finalidad, al fin y al cabo, de desentrañar el sentido, dada la escasa deducibilidad que presentan estas secuencias fijadas por la simple suma de sus elementos constitutivos. Un análisis de estos repertorios a través de los siglos, es, por tanto, el objetivo de este trabajo.Since the beginning of lexicography, phraseological units have been included in repertoires; not only in general dictionaries, but also in monolingual and bilingual specialized catalogues. However, there have always been terminological difficulties for classifying various phenomena of repeated speech. Although this has not been inconvenient for publishing many compilations of sayings, especially at the beginning, because nowadays they frequently include utterances with precise value and idioms, mainly due to the rise of theoretical studies on phraseology (some applied to ASL Linguistics, given its importance today). In them, sometimes, the origin of the phraseological unit is included and, in others, accurate labels that were absent before are determined in order, finally and ultimately, to unravel the meaning, given the reduced deductibility that these sequences present from the simple sum of their constituent elements. The objective of this work is, therefore, an analysis of these repertories throughout the centuries

BEP Performance Analysis of Multi-Node Self Encoded Spread Spectrum - Cooperative Diversity in Rayleigh Fading Channel

Self - encoded spread spectrum (SESS) is a novel modulation technique th at acquires its spreading sequence from the random input data stream rather than through the use of the traditional pseudo - noise code generator. It has been incorporated with multi node cooperative diversity systems as a means to combat fading in wireless channels. In this paper we analyze the cooperative SESS for Amplify and Forward CD links ( M SESS - AFCD) and SESS for Decode and forward CD links ( M SESS - DFCD) in Rayleigh fading channels. The BE P expressions are derived in closed form, and the veracity of the analysis is confirmed by numerical calculations that demonstrate excellent agreement with simulation results

Performance analysis of MIMO-SESS with Alamouti scheme over Rayleigh fading channels

Self-encoded spread spectrum (SESS) is a novel modulation technique that acquires its spreading sequence from the random input data stream rather than through the use of the traditional pseudo-noise code generator. It has been incorporated with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems as a means to combat fading in wireless channels. In this paper, we present the analytical study of the bit-error rate (BER) performance of MIMO-SESS systems under Rayleigh fading. The BER expressions are derived in closed form, and the veracity of the analysis is confirmed by numerical calculations that demonstrate excellent agreement with simulation results. The performance analysis shows that the effects of fading can be effectively mitigated by taking advantage of spatial and temporal diversities. For example, a 2 × 2 MIMO-SESS system can achieve about 7 dB performance improvement at 10-4 BER over a MIMO PN-coded spread spectrum system

Near far resistant detection for CDMA personal communication systems.

The growth of Personal Communications, the keyword of the 90s, has already the signs of a technological revolution. The foundations of this revolution are currently set through the standardization of the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS), a communication system with synergistic terrestrial and satellite segments. The main characteristic of the UMTS radio interface, is the provision of ISDN services. Services with higher than voice data rates require more spectrum, thus techniques that utilize spectrum as efficiently as possible are currently at the forefront of the research community interests. Two of the most spectrally efficient multiple access technologies, namely. Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) concentrate the efforts of the European telecommunity.This thesis addresses problems and. proposes solutions for CDMA systems that must comply with the UMTS requirements. Prompted by Viterbi's call for further extending the potential of CDMA through signal processing at the receiving end, we propose new Minimum Mean Square Error receiver architectures. MMSE detection schemes offer significant advantages compared to the conventional correlation based receivers as they are NEar FAr Resistant (NEFAR) over a wide range of interfering power levels. The NEFAR characteristic of these detectors reduces considerably the requirements of the power control loops currently found in commercial CDMA systems. MMSE detectors are also found, to have significant performance gains over other well established interference cancellation techniques like the decorrelating detector, especially in heavily loaded system conditions. The implementation architecture of MMSE receivers can be either Multiple-Input Multiple Output (MIMO) or Single-Input Single-Output. The later offers not only complexity that is comparable to the conventional detector, but also has the inherent advantage of employing adaptive algorithms which can be used to provide both the dispreading and the interference cancellation function, without the knowledge of the codes of interfering users. Furthermore, in multipath fading channels, adaptive MMSE detectors can exploit the multipath diversity acting as RAKE combiners. The later ability is distinctive to MMSE based receivers, and it is achieved in an autonomous fashion, without the knowledge of the multipath intensity profile. The communicator achieves its performance objectives by the synergy of the signal processor and the channel decoder. According to the propositions of this thesis, the form of the signal processor needs to be changed, in order to exploit the horizons of spread spectrum signaling. However, maximum likelihood channel decoding algorithms need not change. It is the way that these algorithms are utilized that needs to be revis ed. In this respect, we identify three major utilization scenarios and an attempt is made to quantify which of the three best matches the requirements of a UMTS oriented CDMA radio interface. Based on our findings, channel coding can be used as a mapping technique from the information bit to a more ''intelligent" chip, matching the ''intelligence" of the signal processor

Self-concatenated coding for wireless communication systems

In this thesis, we have explored self-concatenated coding schemes that are designed for transmission over Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and uncorrelated Rayleigh fading channels. We designed both the symbol-based Self-ConcatenatedCodes considered using Trellis Coded Modulation (SECTCM) and bit-based Self- Concatenated Convolutional Codes (SECCC) using a Recursive Systematic Convolutional (RSC) encoder as constituent codes, respectively. The design of these codes was carried out with the aid of Extrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT) charts. The EXIT chart based design has been found an efficient tool in finding the decoding convergence threshold of the constituent codes. Additionally, in order to recover the information loss imposed by employing binary rather than non-binary schemes, a soft decision demapper was introduced in order to exchange extrinsic information withthe SECCC decoder. To analyse this information exchange 3D-EXIT chart analysis was invoked for visualizing the extrinsic information exchange between the proposed Iteratively Decoding aided SECCC and soft-decision demapper (SECCC-ID). Some of the proposed SECTCM, SECCC and SECCC-ID schemes perform within about 1 dB from the AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels’ capacity. A union bound analysis of SECCC codes was carried out to find the corresponding Bit Error Ratio (BER) floors. The union bound of SECCCs was derived for communications over both AWGN and uncorrelated Rayleigh fading channels, based on a novel interleaver concept.Application of SECCCs in both UltraWideBand (UWB) and state-of-the-art video-telephone schemes demonstrated its practical benefits.In order to further exploit the benefits of the low complexity design offered by SECCCs we explored their application in a distributed coding scheme designed for cooperative communications, where iterative detection is employed by exchanging extrinsic information between the decoders of SECCC and RSC at the destination. In the first transmission period of cooperation, the relay receives the potentially erroneous data and attempts to recover the information. The recovered information is then re-encoded at the relay using an RSC encoder. In the second transmission period this information is then retransmitted to the destination. The resultant symbols transmitted from the source and relay nodes can be viewed as the coded symbols of a three-component parallel-concatenated encoder. At the destination a Distributed Binary Self-Concatenated Coding scheme using Iterative Decoding (DSECCC-ID) was employed, where the two decoders (SECCC and RSC) exchange their extrinsic information. It was shown that the DSECCC-ID is a low-complexity scheme, yet capable of approaching the Discrete-input Continuous-output Memoryless Channels’s (DCMC) capacity.Finally, we considered coding schemes designed for two nodes communicating with each other with the aid of a relay node, where the relay receives information from the two nodes in the first transmission period. At the relay node we combine a powerful Superposition Coding (SPC) scheme with SECCC. It is assumed that decoding errors may be encountered at the relay node. The relay node then broadcasts this information in the second transmission period after re-encoding it, again, using a SECCC encoder. At the destination, the amalgamated block of Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) scheme combined with SECCC then detects and decodes the signal either with or without the aid of a priori information. Our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is capable of reliably operating at a low BER for transmission over both AWGN and uncorrelated Rayleigh fading channels. We compare the proposed scheme’s performance to a direct transmission link between the two sources having the same throughput

Why is CDMA the solution for mobile satellite communication

It is demonstrated that spread spectrum Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) systems provide an economically superior solution to satellite mobile communications by increasing the system maximum capacity with respect to single channel per carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) systems. Following the comparative analysis of CDMA and FDMA systems, the design of a model that was developed to test the feasibility of the approach and the performance of a spread spectrum system in a mobile environment. Results of extensive computer simulations as well as laboratory and field tests results are presented
