Performance Analysis of SSK-NOMA
In this paper, we consider the combination between two promising techniques:
space-shift keying (SSK) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) for future
radio access networks. We analyze the performance of SSK-NOMA networks and
provide a comprehensive analytical framework of SSK-NOMA regarding bit error
probability (BEP), ergodic capacity and outage probability. It is worth
pointing out all analysis also stand for conventional SIMO-NOMA networks. We
derive closed-form exact average BEP (ABEP) expressions when the number of
users in a resource block is equal to i.e., . Nevertheless, we analyze the
ABEP of users when the number of users is more than i.e., , and derive
bit-error-rate (BER) union bound since the error propagation due to iterative
successive interference canceler (SIC) makes the exact analysis intractable.
Then, we analyze the achievable rate of users and derive exact ergodic capacity
of the users so the ergodic sum rate of the system in closed-forms. Moreover,
we provide the average outage probability of the users exactly in the
closed-form. All derived expressions are validated via Monte Carlo simulations
and it is proved that SSK-NOMA outperforms conventional NOMA networks in terms
of all performance metrics (i.e., BER, sum rate, outage). Finally, the effect
of the power allocation (PA) on the performance of SSK-NOMA networks is
investigated and the optimum PA is discussed under BER and outage constraints
5G Downlink Throughput Enhancement by Beams Consolidating at Vacant Traffic
The 3GPP release for 5G (R15) assigns each User Equipment (UE) a radio beam by employing Massive Multi-User MU-Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology. Each beam carries, at the downlink, a data rate according to the modulation and coding scheme (MCS) assigned by the base station (BS). For the limited existence of active UEs and during vacant traffic or standby UEs, the assigned beams will be transmitted, but not to any UE. This paper proposes a new scheme that consolidates vacant beams of inactive UEs, to the adjacent beam of the active UE or UE at the cell edge to duplicate the bandwidth of the new beam. The proposed scheme increases the level of desired modulation and coding scheme (MCS) to a higher scheme and hence enhances the spectral efficiency (SE) of the 5G mobile networks. Specifically, the BS consolidates (combines) multiple radio beams along with the assigned beam during vacant traffic. More than two beams are consolidated in particular to the active UE to increase the bit rate by assigning higher MCS. The simulation evaluation depicted that the performance of beams consolidation provides a gain of 3.5 dB above than the state before beams consolidation. Moreover, more than 40 % improvement in UE throughput is achieved
Multidimensional Index Modulation for 5G and Beyond Wireless Networks
This study examines the flexible utilization of existing IM techniques in a
comprehensive manner to satisfy the challenging and diverse requirements of 5G
and beyond services. After spatial modulation (SM), which transmits information
bits through antenna indices, application of IM to orthogonal frequency
division multiplexing (OFDM) subcarriers has opened the door for the extension
of IM into different dimensions, such as radio frequency (RF) mirrors, time
slots, codes, and dispersion matrices. Recent studies have introduced the
concept of multidimensional IM by various combinations of one-dimensional IM
techniques to provide higher spectral efficiency (SE) and better bit error rate
(BER) performance at the expense of higher transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx)
complexity. Despite the ongoing research on the design of new IM techniques and
their implementation challenges, proper use of the available IM techniques to
address different requirements of 5G and beyond networks is an open research
area in the literature. For this reason, we first provide the dimensional-based
categorization of available IM domains and review the existing IM types
regarding this categorization. Then, we develop a framework that investigates
the efficient utilization of these techniques and establishes a link between
the IM schemes and 5G services, namely enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB),
massive machine-type communications (mMTC), and ultra-reliable low-latency
communication (URLLC). Additionally, this work defines key performance
indicators (KPIs) to quantify the advantages and disadvantages of IM techniques
in time, frequency, space, and code dimensions. Finally, future recommendations
are given regarding the design of flexible IM-based communication systems for
5G and beyond wireless networks.Comment: This work has been submitted to Proceedings of the IEEE for possible

Sparsity Signal Detection for Indoor GSSK-VLC System
In this paper, the signal detection problem in indoor
visible light communication (VLC) system aided by generalized
space shift keying (GSSK) is modeled as a sparse signal reconstruction problem, which has lower computational complexity by
exploiting the sparse reconstruction algorithms in compressed
sensing (CS). In order to satisfy the measurement matrix property to perform sparse signal reconstruction, a preprocessing
approach of measurement matrix is proposed based on singular
value decomposition (SVD), which theoretically guarantees the
feasibility of utilizing CS based sparse signal detection method in
indoor GSSK-VLC system. Then, by adopting classical orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm and compressed sampling
matching pursuit (CoSaMP) algorithm, the GSSK signals are
efficiently detected in the considered indoor GSSK-VLC system.
Furthermore, a more efficient detection algorithm combined with
OMP and maximum likelihood (ML) is also presented especially
for SSK scenario. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed
sparsity aided detection algorithms in indoor GSSK-VLC system
are verified by computer simulations. The results show that the
proposed algorithms can achieve better bit error rate (BER) and
lower computation complexity than ML based detection method.
Specifically, a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gain as high as 12 dB is
observed in the SSK scenario and about 5 dB in case of a GSSK
scenario upon employing our proposed detection methods
NOMA Made Practical: Removing the SIC through Constructive Interference
In this paper a novel constructive multiple access (CoMA) scheme is proposed. The new CoMA technique aligns the superimposed signals to the users constructively to the signal of interest. Accordingly, there is no need to remove it at the receiver using successive interference cancellation (SIC) technique. In this regard, optimal CoMA precoders are designed for user paring NOMA multiple-input-single-output (MISO) systems. The results in this paper show that CoMA is an attractive solution for NOMA systems with low number of antennas, and transmission power
