Distortion Minimization in Gaussian Layered Broadcast Coding with Successive Refinement
A transmitter without channel state information (CSI) wishes to send a
delay-limited Gaussian source over a slowly fading channel. The source is coded
in superimposed layers, with each layer successively refining the description
in the previous one. The receiver decodes the layers that are supported by the
channel realization and reconstructs the source up to a distortion. The
expected distortion is minimized by optimally allocating the transmit power
among the source layers. For two source layers, the allocation is optimal when
power is first assigned to the higher layer up to a power ceiling that depends
only on the channel fading distribution; all remaining power, if any, is
allocated to the lower layer. For convex distortion cost functions with convex
constraints, the minimization is formulated as a convex optimization problem.
In the limit of a continuum of infinite layers, the minimum expected distortion
is given by the solution to a set of linear differential equations in terms of
the density of the fading distribution. As the bandwidth ratio b (channel uses
per source symbol) tends to zero, the power distribution that minimizes
expected distortion converges to the one that maximizes expected capacity.
While expected distortion can be improved by acquiring CSI at the transmitter
(CSIT) or by increasing diversity from the realization of independent fading
paths, at high SNR the performance benefit from diversity exceeds that from
CSIT, especially when b is large.Comment: Accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on Information Theor
Power and Channel Allocation for Non-orthogonal Multiple Access in 5G Systems: Tractability and Computation
Network capacity calls for significant increase for 5G cellular systems. A
promising multi-user access scheme, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with
successive interference cancellation (SIC), is currently under consideration.
In NOMA, spectrum efficiency is improved by allowing more than one user to
simultaneously access the same frequency-time resource and separating
multi-user signals by SIC at the receiver. These render resource allocation and
optimization in NOMA different from orthogonal multiple access in 4G. In this
paper, we provide theoretical insights and algorithmic solutions to jointly
optimize power and channel allocation in NOMA. For utility maximization, we
mathematically formulate NOMA resource allocation problems. We characterize and
analyze the problems' tractability under a range of constraints and utility
functions. For tractable cases, we provide polynomial-time solutions for global
optimality. For intractable cases, we prove the NP-hardness and propose an
algorithmic framework combining Lagrangian duality and dynamic programming
(LDDP) to deliver near-optimal solutions. To gauge the performance of the
obtained solutions, we also provide optimality bounds on the global optimum.
Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed algorithmic solution can
significantly improve the system performance in both throughput and fairness
over orthogonal multiple access as well as over a previous NOMA resource
allocation scheme.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, revisio

Secrecy Energy Efficiency of MIMOME Wiretap Channels with Full-Duplex Jamming
Full-duplex (FD) jamming transceivers are recently shown to enhance the
information security of wireless communication systems by simultaneously
transmitting artificial noise (AN) while receiving information. In this work,
we investigate if FD jamming can also improve the systems secrecy energy
efficiency (SEE) in terms of securely communicated bits-per- Joule, when
considering the additional power used for jamming and self-interference (SI)
cancellation. Moreover, the degrading effect of the residual SI is also taken
into account. In this regard, we formulate a set of SEE maximization problems
for a FD multiple-input-multiple-output multiple-antenna eavesdropper (MIMOME)
wiretap channel, considering both cases where exact or statistical channel
state information (CSI) is available. Due to the intractable problem structure,
we propose iterative solutions in each case with a proven convergence to a
stationary point. Numerical simulations indicate only a marginal SEE gain,
through the utilization of FD jamming, for a wide range of system conditions.
However, when SI can efficiently be mitigated, the observed gain is
considerable for scenarios with a small distance between the FD node and the
eavesdropper, a high Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), or for a bidirectional FD
communication setup.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Communication
