Upper Bound on the Capacity of Discrete-Time Wiener Phase Noise Channels
A discrete-time Wiener phase noise channel with an integrate-and-dump
multi-sample receiver is studied. An upper bound to the capacity with an
average input power constraint is derived, and a high signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR) analysis is performed. If the oversampling factor grows as
for , then the capacity pre-log is at
most at high SNR.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure. To be presented at IEEE Inf. Theory Workshop (ITW)

Capacity Outer Bound and Degrees of Freedom of Wiener Phase Noise Channels with Oversampling
The discrete-time Wiener phase noise channel with an integrate-and-dump
multi-sample receiver is studied.
A novel outer bound on the capacity with an average input power constraint is
derived as a function of the oversampling factor.
This outer bound yields the degrees of freedom for the scenario in which the
oversampling factor grows with the transmit power as .
The result shows, perhaps surprisingly, that the largest pre-log that can be
attained with phase modulation at high signal-to-noise ratio is at most .Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, Submitted to Intern. Workshop Inf. Theory (ITW)

On the Capacity of the Wiener Phase-Noise Channel: Bounds and Capacity Achieving Distributions
In this paper, the capacity of the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN)
channel, affected by time-varying Wiener phase noise is investigated. Tight
upper and lower bounds on the capacity of this channel are developed. The upper
bound is obtained by using the duality approach, and considering a specific
distribution over the output of the channel. In order to lower-bound the
capacity, first a family of capacity-achieving input distributions is found by
solving a functional optimization of the channel mutual information. Then,
lower bounds on the capacity are obtained by drawing samples from the proposed
distributions through Monte-Carlo simulations. The proposed capacity-achieving
input distributions are circularly symmetric, non-Gaussian, and the input
amplitudes are correlated over time. The evaluated capacity bounds are tight
for a wide range of signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) values, and thus they can be
used to quantify the capacity. Specifically, the bounds follow the well-known
AWGN capacity curve at low SNR, while at high SNR, they coincide with the
high-SNR capacity result available in the literature for the phase-noise
channel.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Communications, 201
Capacity of SIMO and MISO Phase-Noise Channels with Common/Separate Oscillators
In multiple antenna systems, phase noise due to instabilities of the
radio-frequency (RF) oscillators, acts differently depending on whether the RF
circuitries connected to each antenna are driven by separate (independent)
local oscillators (SLO) or by a common local oscillator (CLO). In this paper,
we investigate the high-SNR capacity of single-input multiple-output (SIMO) and
multiple-output single-input (MISO) phase-noise channels for both the CLO and
the SLO configurations.
Our results show that the first-order term in the high-SNR capacity expansion
is the same for all scenarios (SIMO/MISO and SLO/CLO), and equal to , where stands for the SNR. On the contrary, the second-order
term, which we refer to as phase-noise number, turns out to be
scenario-dependent. For the SIMO case, the SLO configuration provides a
diversity gain, resulting in a larger phase-noise number than for the CLO
configuration. For the case of Wiener phase noise, a diversity gain of at least
can be achieved, where is the number of receive antennas. For
the MISO, the CLO configuration yields a higher phase-noise number than the SLO
configuration. This is because with the CLO configuration one can obtain a
coherent-combining gain through maximum ratio transmission (a.k.a. conjugate
beamforming). This gain is unattainable with the SLO configuration.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Communication
Capacity bounds for MIMO microwave backhaul links affected by phase noise
We present bounds and a closed-form high-SNR expression for the capacity of
multiple-antenna systems affected by Wiener phase noise. Our results are
developed for the scenario where a single oscillator drives all the
radio-frequency circuitries at each transceiver (common oscillator setup), the
input signal is subject to a peak-power constraint, and the channel matrix is
deterministic. This scenario is relevant for line-of-sight multiple-antenna
microwave backhaul links with sufficiently small antenna spacing at the
transceivers. For the 2 by 2 multiple-antenna case, for a Wiener phase-noise
process with standard deviation equal to 6 degrees, and at the medium/high SNR
values at which microwave backhaul links operate, the upper bound reported in
the paper exhibits a 3 dB gap from a lower bound obtained using 64-QAM.
Furthermore, in this SNR regime the closed-form high-SNR expression is shown to
be accurate.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures, to appear in IEEE Transactions on Communication
Lower Bound on the Capacity of Continuous-Time Wiener Phase Noise Channels
A continuous-time Wiener phase noise channel with an integrate-and-dump
multi-sample receiver is studied.
A lower bound to the capacity with an average input power constraint is
derived, and a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) analysis is performed.
The capacity pre-log depends on the oversampling factor, and amplitude and
phase modulation do not equally contribute to capacity at high SNR.Comment: Extended version of a paper submitted to ISIT 2015. 9 pages and 1

Phase Modulation for Discrete-time Wiener Phase Noise Channels with Oversampling at High SNR
A discrete-time Wiener phase noise channel model is introduced in which
multiple samples are available at the output for every input symbol. A lower
bound on the capacity is developed. At high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), if the
number of samples per symbol grows with the square root of the SNR, the
capacity pre-log is at least 3/4. This is strictly greater than the capacity
pre-log of the Wiener phase noise channel with only one sample per symbol,
which is 1/2. It is shown that amplitude modulation achieves a pre-log of 1/2
while phase modulation achieves a pre-log of at least 1/4.Comment: To appear in ISIT 201
Tight Upper and Lower Bounds to the Information Rate of the Phase Noise Channel
Numerical upper and lower bounds to the information rate transferred through
the additive white Gaussian noise channel affected by discrete-time
multiplicative autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) phase noise are proposed in
the paper. The state space of the ARMA model being multidimensional, the
problem cannot be approached by the conventional trellis-based methods that
assume a first-order model for phase noise and quantization of the phase space,
because the number of state of the trellis would be enormous. The proposed
lower and upper bounds are based on particle filtering and Kalman filtering.
Simulation results show that the upper and lower bounds are so close to each
other that we can claim of having numerically computed the actual information
rate of the multiplicative ARMA phase noise channel, at least in the cases
studied in the paper. Moreover, the lower bound, which is virtually
capacity-achieving, is obtained by demodulation of the incoming signal based on
a Kalman filter aided by past data. Thus we can claim of having found the
virtually optimal demodulator for the multiplicative phase noise channel, at
least for the cases considered in the paper.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures. Accepted for presentation at ISIT 201
