On the Design of Secure Full-Duplex Multiuser Systems under User Grouping Method
Consider a full-duplex (FD) multiuser system where an FD base station (BS) is
designed to simultaneously serve both downlink users and uplink users in the
presence of half-duplex eavesdroppers (Eves). Our problem is to maximize the
minimum secrecy rate (SR) among all legitimate users by proposing a novel user
grouping method, where information signals at the FD-BS are accompanied with
artificial noise to degrade the Eves' channel. The SR problem has a highly
nonconcave and nonsmooth objective, subject to nonconvex constraints due to
coupling between the optimization variables. Nevertheless, we develop a
path-following low-complexity algorithm, which invokes only a simple convex
program of moderate dimensions at each iteration. We show that our
path-following algorithm guarantees convergence at least to a local optima. The
numerical results demonstrate the merit of our proposed approach compared to
existing well-known ones, i.e., conventional FD and nonorthogonal multiple
access.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figure
An Efficient Spectral Leakage Filtering for IEEE 802.11af in TV White Space
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been widely adopted for
modern wireless standards and become a key enabling technology for cognitive
radios. However, one of its main drawbacks is significant spectral leakage due
to the accumulation of multiple sinc-shaped subcarriers. In this paper, we
present a novel pulse shaping scheme for efficient spectral leakage suppression
in OFDM based physical layer of IEEE 802.11af standard. With conventional pulse
shaping filters such as a raised-cosine filter, vestigial symmetry can be used
to reduce spectral leakage very effectively. However, these pulse shaping
filters require long guard interval, i.e., cyclic prefix in an OFDM system, to
avoid inter-symbol interference (ISI), resulting in a loss of spectral
efficiency. The proposed pulse shaping method based on asymmetric pulse shaping
achieves better spectral leakage suppression and decreases ISI caused by
filtering as compared to conventional pulse shaping filters
A nested hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin method for computing second-harmonic generation in three-dimensional metallic nanostructures
In this paper, we develop a nested hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG)
method to numerically solve the Maxwell's equations coupled with the
hydrodynamic model for the conduction-band electrons in metals. By means of a
static condensation to eliminate the degrees of freedom of the approximate
solution defined in the elements, the HDG method yields a linear system in
terms of the degrees of freedom of the approximate trace defined on the element
boundaries. Furthermore, we propose to reorder these degrees of freedom so that
the linear system accommodates a second static condensation to eliminate a
large portion of the degrees of freedom of the approximate trace, thereby
yielding a much smaller linear system. For the particular metallic structures
considered in this paper, the resulting linear system obtained by means of
nested static condensations is a block tridiagonal system, which can be solved
efficiently. We apply the nested HDG method to compute the second harmonic
generation (SHG) on a triangular coaxial periodic nanogap structure. This
nonlinear optics phenomenon features rapid field variations and extreme
boundary-layer structures that span multiple length scales. Numerical results
show that the ability to identify structures which exhibit resonances at
and is paramount to excite the second harmonic response.Comment: 31 pages, 7 figure
