Physical Layer Service Integration in 5G: Potentials and Challenges
High transmission rate and secure communication have been identified as the
key targets that need to be effectively addressed by fifth generation (5G)
wireless systems. In this context, the concept of physical-layer security
becomes attractive, as it can establish perfect security using only the
characteristics of wireless medium. Nonetheless, to further increase the
spectral efficiency, an emerging concept, termed physical-layer service
integration (PHY-SI), has been recognized as an effective means. Its basic idea
is to combine multiple coexisting services, i.e., multicast/broadcast service
and confidential service, into one integral service for one-time transmission
at the transmitter side. This article first provides a tutorial on typical
PHY-SI models. Furthermore, we propose some state-of-the-art solutions to
improve the overall performance of PHY-SI in certain important communication
scenarios. In particular, we highlight the extension of several concepts
borrowed from conventional single-service communications, such as artificial
noise (AN), eigenmode transmission etc., to the scenario of PHY-SI. These
techniques are shown to be effective in the design of reliable and robust
PHY-SI schemes. Finally, several potential research directions are identified
for future work.Comment: 12 pages, 7 figure
Capacity Enhancement of Multiuser Wireless Communication System through Adaptive Non-Linear Pre coding
Multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) nonlinear pre coding techniques face the issue of poor computational scalability of the size of the network. But by this nonlinear pre coding technique the interference is pre-cancelled automatically and also provides better capacity. So in order to reduce the computational burden in this paper, a definitive issue of MU-MIMO scalability is tackled through a non-linear adaptive optimum vector perturbation technique. Unlike the conventional (Vector Perturbation) VP methods, here a novel anterograde tracing is utilized which is usually recognized in the nervous system thus reducing complexity. The tracing of distance can be done through an iterative-optimization procedure. By this novel non-linear technique the capacity is improved to a greater extend which is explained practically. By means of this, the computational complexity is managed to be in the cubic order of the size of MUMIMO, and this mainly derives from the inverse of the channel matrix. The proposed signal processing system has been implemented in the working platform of MATLAB/SIMULINK. The simulation results of proposed communication system and comparison with existing systems shows the significance of the proposed work
Multicast Scheduling and Resource Allocation Algorithms for OFDMA-Based Systems: A Survey
Multicasting is emerging as an enabling technology
for multimedia transmissions over wireless networks to support several groups of users with flexible quality of service (QoS)requirements. Although multicast has huge potential to push the limits of next generation communication systems; it is however one of the most challenging issues currently being addressed. In this survey, we explain multicast group formation and various
forms of group rate determination approaches. We also provide a systematic review of recent channel-aware multicast scheduling and resource allocation (MSRA) techniques proposed for downlink multicast services in OFDMA based systems. We study these enabling algorithms, evaluate their core characteristics, limitations and classify them using multidimensional matrix. We cohesively review the algorithms in terms of their throughput maximization, fairness considerations, performance complexities,
multi-antenna support, optimality and simplifying assumptions. We discuss existing standards employing multicasting and further highlight some potential research opportunities in multicast systems
Evolution of NOMA Toward Next Generation Multiple Access (NGMA) for 6G
Due to the explosive growth in the number of wireless devices and diverse
wireless services, such as virtual/augmented reality and
Internet-of-Everything, next generation wireless networks face unprecedented
challenges caused by heterogeneous data traffic, massive connectivity, and
ultra-high bandwidth efficiency and ultra-low latency requirements. To address
these challenges, advanced multiple access schemes are expected to be
developed, namely next generation multiple access (NGMA), which are capable of
supporting massive numbers of users in a more resource- and
complexity-efficient manner than existing multiple access schemes. As the
research on NGMA is in a very early stage, in this paper, we explore the
evolution of NGMA with a particular focus on non-orthogonal multiple access
(NOMA), i.e., the transition from NOMA to NGMA. In particular, we first review
the fundamental capacity limits of NOMA, elaborate on the new requirements for
NGMA, and discuss several possible candidate techniques. Moreover, given the
high compatibility and flexibility of NOMA, we provide an overview of current
research efforts on multi-antenna techniques for NOMA, promising future
application scenarios of NOMA, and the interplay between NOMA and other
emerging physical layer techniques. Furthermore, we discuss advanced
mathematical tools for facilitating the design of NOMA communication systems,
including conventional optimization approaches and new machine learning
techniques. Next, we propose a unified framework for NGMA based on multiple
antennas and NOMA, where both downlink and uplink transmissions are considered,
thus setting the foundation for this emerging research area. Finally, several
practical implementation challenges for NGMA are highlighted as motivation for
future work.Comment: 34 pages, 10 figures, a survey paper accepted by the IEEE JSAC

Mathematical optimization techniques for resource allocation in cognitive radio networks
Introduction of data intensive multimedia and interactive services together with exponential growth of wireless applications have created a spectrum crisis. Many spectrum occupancy measurements, however, have shown that most of the allocated spectrum are used inefficiently indicating that radically new approaches are required for better utilization of spectrum. This motivates the concept of opportunistic spectrum sharing or the so-called cognitive radio technology that has great potential to improve spectrum utilization. This technology allows the secondary users to access the spectrum which is allocated to the licensed users in order to transmit their own signal without harmfully affecting the licensed users' communications. In this thesis, an optimal radio resource allocation algorithm is proposed for an OFDM based underlay cognitive radio networks. The proposed algorithm optimally allocates transmission power and OFDM subchannels to the users at the basestation in order to satisfy the quality of services and interference leakage constraints based on integer linear programming. To reduce the computational complexity, a novel recursive suboptimal algorithm is proposed based on a linear optimization framework. To exploit the spatial diversity, the proposed algorithms are extended to a MIMO-OFDM based cognitive radio network. Finally, a novel spatial multiplexing technique is developed to allocate resources in a cognitive radio network which consists of both the real time and the non-real users. Conditions required for convergence of the proposed algorithm are analytically derived. The performance of all these new algorithms are verified using MATLAB simulation results.EThOS - Electronic Theses Online ServiceGBUnited Kingdo
