MIMO Transmission with Residual Transmit-RF Impairments
Physical transceiver implementations for multiple-input multiple-output
(MIMO) wireless communication systems suffer from transmit-RF (Tx-RF)
impairments. In this paper, we study the effect on channel capacity and
error-rate performance of residual Tx-RF impairments that defy proper
compensation. In particular, we demonstrate that such residual distortions
severely degrade the performance of (near-)optimum MIMO detection algorithms.
To mitigate this performance loss, we propose an efficient algorithm, which is
based on an i.i.d. Gaussian model for the distortion caused by these
impairments. In order to validate this model, we provide measurement results
based on a 4-stream Tx-RF chain implementation for MIMO orthogonal
frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM).Comment: to be presented at the International ITG Workshop on Smart Antennas -

Spatial data stream multiplexing scheme for high-throughput WLANs
A novel scheme using spatial data stream multiplexing (SDSM) in the upcoming multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO)-based IEEE 802.11n physical layer is proposed. It is shown that with SDSM, the same data rate can be achieved by using less number of transmit and receive antennas and therefore this scheme can reduce the number of antennas which results in reducing mutual coupling effects, hardware costs and implementation complexities. The maximum data rates that can be achieved using a 2 * 2 MIMO system is 270 Mbps and for a 4 * 4 MIMO system is 540 Mbps. The same data rates can be achieved using the SDSM technique which reduces the 2 * 2 MIMO system to 1 * 1 SISO system and the 4 * 4 MIMO system to a 2 * 2 MIMO system
Waveform Design for 5G and Beyond
5G is envisioned to improve major key performance indicators (KPIs), such as
peak data rate, spectral efficiency, power consumption, complexity, connection
density, latency, and mobility. This chapter aims to provide a complete picture
of the ongoing 5G waveform discussions and overviews the major candidates. It
provides a brief description of the waveform and reveals the 5G use cases and
waveform design requirements. The chapter presents the main features of cyclic
prefix-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) that is deployed in
4G LTE systems. CP-OFDM is the baseline of the 5G waveform discussions since
the performance of a new waveform is usually compared with it. The chapter
examines the essential characteristics of the major waveform candidates along
with the related advantages and disadvantages. It summarizes and compares the
key features of different waveforms.Comment: 22 pages, 21 figures, 2 tables; accepted version (The URL for the
