    We propose an exact calculation of the probability density function (PDF) and cumulative distribution function (CDF) of mutual information (MI) for a two-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiple access channel (MAC) network over block Rayleigh fading channels. This scenario can be found in the uplink channel of MIMO non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system, a promising multiple access technique for 5G networks. So far, the PDF and CDF have been numerically evaluated since MI depends on the quotient of two Wishart matrices, and no closed form for this quotient was available. We derive exact results for the PDF and CDF of extreme (the Smallest/the largest) eigenvalues. Based on the results of quotient ensemble, the exact calculation for PDF and CDF of mutual information is presented via Laplace transform approach and by direct integration of joint PDF of quotient ensemble's eigenvalues. Furthermore, our derivations also provide the parameters to apply the Gaussian approximation method, which is comparatively easier to implement. We show that approximation matches the exact results remarkably well for outage probability, i.e., CDF, above 10%. However, the approximation could also be used for 1% outage probability with a relatively Small error. We apply the derived expressions to investigate the effects of adding antennas in the receiver and its ability to decode the weak user signal. By supposing no channel knowledge at transmitters and successive decoding at receiver, the capacity of the weak user increases and its outage probability decreases with the increment of extra antennas at the receiver end2017CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO - CNPQCOORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DE PESSOAL DE NÍVEL SUPERIOR - CAPESnão temBEX10714/14-

    Orientadores: Gustavo Fraidenraich, Behnaam AazhangTese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de Engenharia Elétrica e de ComputaçãoResumo: O uso de múltiplas antenas em comunicações sem fio permitiu, inicialmente, garantir que um sinal transmitido fosse recebido com maior energia, o que diretamente aumenta a probabilidade de sucesso na recuperação dos dados transmitidos. Posteriormente, foi possível aumentar a capacidade de uma comunicação sem fio utilizando múltiplas antenas transmitindo e recebendo ao mesmo tempo. Atualmente, os dispositivos móveis como telefones celulares e computadores pessoais já são equipados com múltiplas antenas garantindo uma flexibilidade entre taxas maiores, quando as condições são favoráveis, ou aumento da confiabilidade de recepção, em condições menos favoráveis. Além dos graus de liberdade trazidos com a utilização de múltiplas antenas para uma comunicação ponto-a-ponto, os benefícios para uma rede onde um ou mais elementos façam uso destas é notável. Neste trabalho, apresentamos um estudo sobre o impacto do uso de múltiplas antenas em diversos tipos de redes compostas por múltiplos usuários fazendo uso do canal sem fio ao mesmo tempo. Como será visto, em algumas situações o objetivo será reduzir a probabilidade de que ocorra uma falha na comunicação, havendo ou não interferência. Em outras situações, faremos um estudo da capacidade soma de vários usuários ao transmitirem ao mesmo tempo. Em todos os casos, o conhecimento ou não do canal no transmissor é fator determinante para decidir como os sinais serão distribuídos nas múltiplas antenas do transmissor e se estes estarão sujeitos a uma probabilidade de bloqueio ou uma determinada capacidade. Em todos os casos, para uma dada configuração da rede (número de transmissores, receptores), iremos obter a métrica adequada em função da relação sinal ruído e apresentaremos uma modelagem teórica do problema comparando os resultados propostos com simulações de forma a validar estes resultadosAbstract: The first use of multiple antennas in wireless communications aimed to the improvement of the reliability of a transmission by improving the signal to noise ratio at receiver. More energy of the desired signal means that the receiver has higher probability to correctly decode the transmitted signal. Later, it was possible to increase the capacity of a wireless communication by the use of multiple antennas to transmit and receive at the same time. Nowadays, even the inexpensive mobile devices such as smartphones and personal computers are equipped with multiple antennas that provide flexibility between more data rate in favourable channel situations and more reliability in poor channel conditions. Besides the degrees of freedom that multiple antennas provide in single user communication, it dramatically increases the network data rate. In this work, we study the impact of multiple antennas in several multi-user scenarios with concurrent transmission. Whenever is possible, we provide closed-form expressions or approximations for outage probability or sum capacity depending on the type of network. The derived expressions allow us to quantify the impact of the number of users and number of antennas in the performance of the network. We quantify either outage or sum capacity in terms of signal-to-noise ratio for channels under fading conditionsDoutoradoTelecomunicações e TelemáticaDoutor em Engenharia Elétrica10714/14-6CAPESBE

    Passive MIMO Radar Detection

    Passive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar is a sensor network comprised of multiple distributed receivers that detects and localizes targets using the emissions from multiple non-cooperative radio frequency transmitters. This dissertation advances the theory of centralized passive MIMO radar (PMR) detection by proposing two novel generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) detectors. The first addresses detection in PMR networks without direct-path signals. The second addresses detection in PMR networks with direct-path signals. The probability distributions of both test statistics are investigated using recent results from random matrix theory. Equivalence is established between PMR networks without direct-path signals and passive source localization (PSL) networks. Comparison of both detectors with a centralized GLRT for active MIMO radar (AMR) detection reveals that PMR may be interpreted as the link between AMR and PSL sensor networks. In particular, under high direct-path-to-noise ratio (DNR) conditions, PMR sensitivity and ambiguity approaches that of AMR. Under low-DNR conditions, PMR sensitivity and ambiguity approaches that of PSL. At intermediate DNRs, PMR sensitivity and ambiguity smoothly varies between that of AMR and PSL. In this way, PMR unifies PSL and AMR within a common theoretical framework. This result provides insight into the fundamental natures of active and passive distributed sensing

    Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna systems have been shown to be able to substantially increase date rate and improve reliability without extra spectrum and power resources. The increasing popularity and enormous prospect of MIMO technology calls for a better understanding of the performance of MIMO systems operating over practical environments. Motivated by this, this thesis provides an analytical characterization of the capacity and performance of advanced MIMO antenna systems. First, the ergodic capacity of MIMO Nakagami-m fading channels is investigated. A unified way of deriving ergodic capacity bounds is developed under the majorization theory framework. The key idea is to study the ergodic capacity through the distribution of the diagonal elements of the quadratic channel HHy which is relatively easy to handle, avoiding the need of the eigenvalue distribution of the channel matrix which is extremely difficult to obtain. The proposed method is first applied on the conventional point-to-point MIMO systems under Nakagami-m fading, and later extended to the more general distributed MIMO systems. Second, the ergodic capacity of MIMO multi-keyhole and MIMO amplify-and-forward (AF) dual-hop systems is studied. A set of new statistical properties involving product of random complex Gaussian matrix, i.e., probability density function (p.d.f.) of an unordered eigenvalue, p.d.f. of the maximum eigenvalue, expected determinant and log-determinant, is derived. Based on these, analytical closedform expressions for the ergodic capacity of the systems are obtained and the connection between the product channels and conventional point-to-point MIMO channels is also revealed. Finally, the effect of co-channel interference is investigated. First, the performance of optimum combining (OC) systems operating in Rayleigh-product channels is analyzed based on novel closed-form expression of the cumulative distribution function (c.d.f.) of the maximum eigenvalue of the resultant channel matrix. Then, for MIMO Rician channels and MIMO Rayleigh-product channels, the ergodic capacity at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime is studied, and the impact of various system parameters, such as transmit and receive antenna number, Rician factor, channel mean matrix and interference-tonoise- ratio, is examined
