Low Complexity Noncoherent Iterative Detector for Continuous Phase Modulation Systems
This paper focuses on the noncoherent iterative detection of continuous phase modulation. A class of simplified receivers based on Principal-Component-Analysis (PCA) and Exponential-Window (EW) is developed. The proposed receiver is evaluated in terms of minimum achievable Euclidean distance, simulated bit error rate and achievable capacity. The performance of the proposed receiver is discussed in the context of mismatched receiver and the equivalent Euclidean distance is derived. Analysis and numerical results reveal that the proposed algorithm can approach the coherent performance and outperforms existing algorithm in terms of complexity and performance. It is shown that the proposed receiver can significantly reduce the detection complexity while the performance is comparable with existing algorithms
New factor graph based multiuser detector for spectrally efficient CPM
This paper presents a new iterative multiuser detection algorithm for asynchronous spectrally-efficient M-ary continuous-phase modulation in additive white Gaussian noise. This detection algorithm is closely related to another algorithm that was recently proposed by the same authors, but it follows from applying the sum-product algorithm to a different factor graph of the same multiuser detection problem. This, in turn, results in a different way to approximate the marginal bit a-posteriori probabilities that are used to perform minimum bit error rate multiuser detection. The girth of the factor graph considered in this contribution is twice as large, which is known to be potentially beneficial for the accuracy of the a-posteriori probabilities. The size of the largest factor graph variable alphabets also multiplies with M, rendering the straightforward application of the sum-product algorithm more complex. Through approximating a suitable set of sum-product messages by a Gaussian distribution, this complexity is significantly reduced. For a set of system parameters yielding high spectral efficiency, the resulting algorithm significantly outperforms the previously proposed solution
Nonlinearity Mitigation in WDM Systems: Models, Strategies, and Achievable Rates
After reviewing models and mitigation strategies for interchannel nonlinear
interference (NLI), we focus on the frequency-resolved logarithmic perturbation
model to study the coherence properties of NLI. Based on this study, we devise
an NLI mitigation strategy which exploits the synergic effect of phase and
polarization noise compensation (PPN) and subcarrier multiplexing with
symbol-rate optimization. This synergy persists even for high-order modulation
alphabets and Gaussian symbols. A particle method for the computation of the
resulting achievable information rate and spectral efficiency (SE) is presented
and employed to lower-bound the channel capacity. The dependence of the SE on
the link length, amplifier spacing, and presence or absence of inline
dispersion compensation is studied. Single-polarization and dual-polarization
scenarios with either independent or joint processing of the two polarizations
are considered. Numerical results show that, in links with ideal distributed
amplification, an SE gain of about 1 bit/s/Hz/polarization can be obtained (or,
in alternative, the system reach can be doubled at a given SE) with respect to
single-carrier systems without PPN mitigation. The gain is lower with lumped
amplification, increases with the number of spans, decreases with the span
length, and is further reduced by in-line dispersion compensation. For
instance, considering a dispersion-unmanaged link with lumped amplification and
an amplifier spacing of 60 km, the SE after 80 spans can be be increased from
4.5 to 4.8 bit/s/Hz/polarization, or the reach raised up to 100 spans (+25%)
for a fixed SE.Comment: Submitted to Journal of Lightwave Technolog
MIMO-aided near-capacity turbo transceivers: taxonomy and performance versus complexity
In this treatise, we firstly review the associated Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system theory and review the family of hard-decision and soft-decision based detection algorithms in the context of Spatial Division Multiplexing (SDM) systems. Our discussions culminate in the introduction of a range of powerful novel MIMO detectors, such as for example Markov Chain assisted Minimum Bit-Error Rate (MC-MBER) detectors, which are capable of reliably operating in the challenging high-importance rank-deficient scenarios, where there are more transmitters than receivers and hence the resultant channel-matrix becomes non-invertible. As a result, conventional detectors would exhibit a high residual error floor. We then invoke the Soft-Input Soft-Output (SISO) MIMO detectors for creating turbo-detected two- or three-stage concatenated SDM schemes and investigate their attainable performance in the light of their computational complexity. Finally, we introduce the powerful design tools of EXtrinsic Information Transfer (EXIT)-charts and characterize the achievable performance of the diverse near- capacity SISO detectors with the aid of EXIT charts
Free-space optical communication employing subcarrier modulation and spatial diversity in atmospheric turbulence channel
An expression for the bit error rate of a multiple subcarrier intensity-modulated atmospheric optical communication system employing spatial diversity is derived. Spatial diversity is used to mitigate scintillation caused by atmospheric turbulence, which is assumed to obey lognormal distribution. Optimal but complex maximum ratio, equal gain combining (EGC) and relatively simple selection combining spatial diversity techniques in a clear atmosphere are considered. Each subcarrier is modulated using binary phase shift keying. Laser irradiance is subsequently modulated by a subcarrier signal, and a direct detection PIN receiver is employed (i.e. intensity modulation/direction detection). At a subcarrier level, coherent demodulation is used to extract the transmitted data/information. The performance of onâoff-keying is also presented and compared with the subcarrier intensity modulation under the same atmospheric conditions
On Low-Resolution ADCs in Practical 5G Millimeter-Wave Massive MIMO Systems
Nowadays, millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output
(MIMO) systems is a favorable candidate for the fifth generation (5G) cellular
systems. However, a key challenge is the high power consumption imposed by its
numerous radio frequency (RF) chains, which may be mitigated by opting for
low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), whilst tolerating a
moderate performance loss. In this article, we discuss several important issues
based on the most recent research on mmWave massive MIMO systems relying on
low-resolution ADCs. We discuss the key transceiver design challenges including
channel estimation, signal detector, channel information feedback and transmit
precoding. Furthermore, we introduce a mixed-ADC architecture as an alternative
technique of improving the overall system performance. Finally, the associated
challenges and potential implementations of the practical 5G mmWave massive
MIMO system {with ADC quantizers} are discussed.Comment: to appear in IEEE Communications Magazin
Design guidelines for spatial modulation
A new class of low-complexity, yet energyefficient Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) transmission techniques, namely the family of Spatial Modulation (SM) aided MIMOs (SM-MIMO) has emerged. These systems are capable of exploiting the spatial dimensions (i.e. the antenna indices) as an additional dimension invoked for transmitting information, apart from the traditional Amplitude and Phase Modulation (APM). SM is capable of efficiently operating in diverse MIMO configurations in the context of future communication systems. It constitutes a promising transmission candidate for large-scale MIMO design and for the indoor optical wireless communication whilst relying on a single-Radio Frequency (RF) chain. Moreover, SM may also be viewed as an entirely new hybrid modulation scheme, which is still in its infancy. This paper aims for providing a general survey of the SM design framework as well as of its intrinsic limits. In particular, we focus our attention on the associated transceiver design, on spatial constellation optimization, on link adaptation techniques, on distributed/ cooperative protocol design issues, and on their meritorious variants
