Analysis of an LSTM-based NOMA Detector Over Time Selective Nakagami-m Fading Channel Conditions, Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2022, nr 3

This work examines the efficacy of deep learning (DL) based non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) receivers in vehicular communications (VC). Analytical formulations for the outage probability (OP), symbol error rate (SER), and ergodic sum rate for the researched vehicle networks are established Rusing i.i.d. Nakagami-m fading links. Standard receivers, such as least square (LS) and minimum mean square error (MMSE), are outperformed by the stacked long-short term memory (S-LSTM) based DL-NOMA receiver. Under real time propagation circumstances, including the cyclic prefix (CP) and clipping distortion, the simulation curves compare the performance of MMSE and LS receivers with that of the DL-NOMA receiver. According to numerical statistics, NOMA outperforms conventional orthogonal multiple access (OMA) by roughly 20% and has a high sum rate when considering i.i.d. fading links

Performance Evaluation and Improvement of Wireless Amplify-and-Forward Cooperative-Based Systems under Nodes Mobility and Imperfect CSI Estimation Impacts

Cooperative communication techniques have been introduced in wireless networks to achieve spacial diversity-gain via the readiness of multiple users (via relays) to assist a source forwarding its data to a final destination. Cooperative communication techniques have shown their capability in improving system reliability and extending coverage area, and hence, it is believable that they will act as a promising technology for the coming fifth-generation (5G). Nevertheless, most existing work reported in literature on performance studies of wireless cooperative-based systems are based on the assumptions that the multipath fading channels among systems cooperating nodes are quasi-static (i.e., fading channels coefficients are constant over a number of consecutive signaling periods) and channel-state-information (CSI) estimation processes at systems receivers are perfect. Nowadays, however, there is an increased number of users riding high-speed public transportation vehicles and demanding wireless data services through their own terminals. As a result of such high mobility wireless terminals, the assumption of time-selective (i.e., non quasi-static) fading is more realistic. This time-selective fading environment would severely deteriorate the performance of existing wireless cooperative systems that have been already designed based on the assumption of quasi-static fading (low users speeds). Further, due to impairments associated with practical receiver tracking-loops implementation issues, it is more general to assume that CSI estimations at systems receiving sides are imperfect. The scope of this dissertation is to provide comprehensive performance evaluation study for several emerging models of wireless amplify-and-forward (AF) cooperative-based communication systems that operate under the effects of the more general scenarios of high nodes mobility (time-selective fading) and imperfect channel estimations. This performance evaluation study is conducted by deriving closed-form expressions for different performance metrics; including error probability, outage probability and channel capacity. Monte Carlo simulations are also provided to complement and validate the analytical analyses. All of the obtained results in this dissertation are novel and general for mobile as well as non-moving nodes and for imperfect as well as perfect CSI estimations. Moreover, in this dissertation we develop innovative and applicable solutions and receiver designs that are capable of mitigating the detrimental impacts of the high nodes mobility on the performance of the cooperative system models under study

Performance Analysis, Resource Allocation and Optimization of Cooperative Communication Systems under Generalized Fading Channels

The increasing demands for high-speed data transmission, efficient wireless access, high quality of service (QoS) and reliable network coverage with reduced power consumption impose demanding intensive research efforts on the design of novel wireless communication system architectures. A notable development in the area of communication theory is the introduction of cooperative communication systems. These technologies become promising solution for the next-generation wireless transmission systems due to their applicability in size, power, hardware and price constrained devices, such as cellular mobile devices, wireless sensors, ad-hoc networks and military communications, being able to provide, e.g., diversity gain against fading channels without the need for installing multiple antennas in a single terminal. The performance of the cooperative systems can in general be significantly increased by allocating the limited power efficiently. In this thesis, we address in detail the performance analysis, resource allocation and optimization of such cooperative communication systems under generalized fading channels. We focus first on energy-efficiency (EE) optimization and optimal power allocation (OPA) of regenerative cooperative network with spatial correlation effects under given power constraint and QoS requirement. The thesis also investigates the end-to-end performance and power allocation of a regenerative multi-relay cooperative network over non-homogeneous scattering environment, which is realistic case in practical wireless communication scenarios. Furthermore, the study investigates the end-to-end performance, OPA and energy optimization analysis under total power constraint and performance requirement of full-duplex (FD) relaying transmission scheme over asymmetric generalized fading models with relay self-interference (SI) effects.The study first focuses on exact error analysis and EE optimization of regenerative relay systems under spatial correlation effects. It first derives novel exact and asymptotic expressions for the symbol-error-rates (SERs) of M -ary quadrature amplitude and M -ary phase-shift keying (M -QAM) and (M -PSK) modulations, respectively, assuming a dual-hop decode-and-forward relay system, spatial correlation, path-loss effects and maximum-ratio-combing (MRC) at the destination. Based on this, EEoptimization and OPA are carried out under certain QoS requirement and transmit power constraints.Furthermore, the second part of the study investigates the end-to-end performance and power allocation of MRC based regenerative multi-relay cooperative system over non-homogeneous scattering environment. Novel exact and asymptotic expressions are derived for the end-to-end average SER for M -QAM and M -PSK modulations.The offered results are employed in performance investigations and power allocation formulations under total transmit power constraints.Finally, the thesis investigates outage performance, OPA and energy optimization analysis under certain system constraints for the FD and half-duplex (HD) relaying systems. Unlike the previous studies that considered the scenario of information transmission over symmetric fading conditions, in this study we considered the scenario of information transmission over the most generalized asymmetric fading environments.The obtained results indicate that depending on the severity of multipath fading, the spatial correlation between the direct and relayed paths and the relay location, the direct transmission is more energy-efficient only for rather short transmission distances and until a certain threshold. Beyond this, the system benefits substantially from the cooperative transmission approach where the cooperation gain increases as the transmission distance increases. Furthermore, the investigations on the power allocation for the multi-relay system over the generalized small-scale fading model show that substantial performance gain can be achieved by the proposed power allocation scheme over the conventional equal power allocation (EPA) scheme when the source-relay and relay-destination paths are highly unbalanced. Extensive studies on the FD relay system also show that OPA provides significant performance gain over the EPA scheme when the relay SI level is relatively strong. In addition, it is shown that the FD relaying scheme is more energy-efficient than the reference HD relaying scheme at long transmission distances and for moderate relay SI levels.In general, the investigations in this thesis provide tools, results and useful insights for implementing space-efficient, low-cost and energy-efficient cooperative networks, specifically, towards the future green communication era where the optimization of the scarce resources is critical
