Transceiver design for non-regenerative MIMO relay systems with decision feedback detection
In this paper we consider the design of zero forcing (ZF) and minimum mean square error (MMSE) transceivers for non-regenerative multiple input multiple output (MIMO) relay networks. Our designs utilise linear processors at each stage of the network along with a decision feedback detection device at the receiver. Under the assumption of full channel state information (CSI) across the entire link the processors are jointly optimised to minimise the system arithmetic mean square error (MSE) whilst meeting average power constraints at both the source and the relay terminals. We compare the presented methods to linear designs available in the literature and show the advantages of the proposed transceivers through simulation results

ZF DFE transceiver design for MIMO relay systems with direct source-destination link
In this paper we consider a non-linear transceiver design for non-regenerative multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relay networks where a direct link exists between the source and destination. Our system utilises linear processors at the source and relay as well as a zero-forcing (ZF) decision feedback equaliser (DFE) at the receiver. Under the assumption that full channel state information (CSI) is available the precoding and equaliser matrices are designed to minimise the arithmetic mean square error (MSE) whilst meeting transmit power constraints at the source and destination. The source, relay, and destination processors are provided in closed form solution. In the absence of the direct link our design particularises to a previous ZF DFE solution and as such can be viewed as a generalisation of an existing work. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solution through simulation and show that it outperforms existing techniques in terms of bit error ratio (BER)
Robust transceiver design for MIMO relay systems with tomlinson harashima precoding
In this paper we consider a robust transceiver design for two hop non-regenerative multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relay networks with imperfect channel state information (CSI). The transceiver consists of Tomlinson Harashima Pre-coding (THP) at the source with a linear precoder at the relay and linear equalisation at the destination. Under the assumption that each node in the network can acquire statistical knowledge of the channel in the form of a channel mean and estimation error covariance, we optimise the processors to minimise the expected arithmetic mean square error (MSE) subject to transmission power constraints at the source and relay. Simulation results demonstrate the robustness of the proposed transceiver design to channel estimation errors
Tomlinson Harashima precoding design for non-regenerative MIMO relay networks
In this paper we consider the design of minimum mean square error (MMSE) transceivers for non-regenerative multiple input multiple output (MIMO) relay systems. Our design utilises Tomlinson Harashima precoding (THP) at the source along with linear processors in each stage of the network. Assuming full channel state information (CSI) is available at each node in the network the various processors are jointly optimised to minimise the system arithmetic mean square error (MSE) whilst abiding by average power constraints at both the source and relay terminals in the network. Simulations show that the proposed schemes outperform existing methods in terms of bit error ratio (BER)
Watching the hands of the Arabidopsis biological clock
Oligonucleotide and cDNA microarrays have been used to analyse the mRNA levels of 8,000 genes in Arabidopsis thaliana throughout the day/night cycle. Genes involved in signal transduction and in various metabolic pathways were found to be coordinately regulated by circadian rhythms and/or by light
Inversion of Parahermitian matrices
Parahermitian matrices arise in broadband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems or array processing, and require inversion in some instances. In this paper, we apply a polynomial eigenvalue decomposition obtained by the sequential best rotation algorithm to decompose a parahermitian matrix into a product of two paraunitary, i.e.lossless and easily invertible matrices, and a diagonal polynomial matrix. The inversion of the overall parahermitian matrix therefore reduces to the inversion of auto-correlation sequences in this diagonal matrix. We investigate a number of different approaches to obtain this inversion, and and assessment of the numerical stability and complexity of the inversion process
