On the Sum of Fisher-Snedecor F Variates and its Application to Maximal-Ratio Combining
Capitalizing on the recently proposed Fisher-Snedecor F composite fading
model, in this letter, we investigate the sum of independent but not
identically distributed (i.n.i.d.) Fisher-Snedecor F variates. First, a novel
closed-form expression is derived for the moment generating function of the
instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio. Based on this, the corresponding
probability density function and cumulative distribution function of the sum of
i.n.i.d. Fisher- Snedecor F variates are derived, which are subsequently
employed in the analysis of multiple branch maximal-ratio combining (MRC).
Specifically, we investigate the impact of multipath and shadowed fading on the
outage probability and outage capacity of MRC based receivers. In addition, we
derive exact closed-form expressions for the average bit error rate of coherent
binary modulation schemes followed by an asymptotic analysis which provides
further insights into the effect of the system parameters on the overall
performance. Importantly, it is shown that the effect of multipath fading on
the system performance is more pronounced than that of shadowing.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Approximate Distributions of the Residual Self-Interference Power in Multi-tap Full-Duplex Systems
In this letter, we investigate closed-form distributions to approximate the power of the residual Self-Interference (SI) due to: 1) uncanceled signals transmitted over multiple delay-taps, and 2) the presence of radio frequency and transceiver impairments, of an In-Band Full-duplex (IBFDX) wireless system. Starting with the distribution of the residual SI power for a single tap, we extend the analysis for multiple taps comparing two different solutions. The first one is based on the Welch-Satterthwaite (W-S) approximation, while the second is a moment-based approximation to an α-μ distribution. When compared to empirical results obtained by simulation, our work shows that the distribution of the residual SI power can be accurately represented by the W-S approximation when the uncertainty level of the fading in the different taps is low. However, for higher levels of uncertainty we show that the α-μ moment-based approximation is more accurate. A comparison between simulated and numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed model.authorsversionpublishe
Cognitive full-duplex relay networks under the peak interference power constraint of multiple primary users
Abstract
This paper investigates the outage performance of cognitive spectrum-sharing multi-relay networks in which the relays operate in a full-duplex (FD) mode and employ the decode-and-forward (DF) protocol. Two relay selection schemes, i.e., partial relay selection (PRS) and optimal relay selection (ORS), are considered to enhance the system performance. New exact expressions for the outage probability (OP) in both schemes are derived based on which an asymptotic analysis is carried out. The results show that the ORS strategy outperforms PRS in terms of OP, and increasing the number of FD relays can significantly improve the system performance. Moreover, novel analytical results provide additional insights for system design. In particular, from the viewpoint of FD concept, the primary network parameters (i.e., peak interference at the primary receivers, number of primary receivers, and their locations) should be carefully considered since they significantly affect the secondary network performance
RSMA for Dual-Polarized Massive MIMO Networks: A SIC-Free Approach
Aiming at overcoming practical issues of successive interference cancellation
(SIC), this paper proposes a dual-polarized rate-splitting multiple access
(RSMA) technique for a downlink massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)
network. By modeling the effects of polarization interference, an in-depth
theoretical analysis is carried out, in which we derive tight closed-form
approximations for the outage probabilities and ergodic sum-rates. Simulation
results validate the accuracy of the theoretical analysis and confirm the
effectiveness of the proposed approach. For instance, under low to moderate
cross-polar interference, our results show that the proposed dual-polarized
MIMO-RSMA strategy outperforms the single-polarized MIMO-RSMA counterpart for
all considered levels of residual SIC error.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2211.0085
Physical-Layer Security of SIMO Communication Systems over Multipath Fading Conditions
The present work investigates the physical layer security of wireless communication systems over non-homogeneous fading environments, i.e. fading models, which are typically encountered in realistic wireless transmission scenarios in the context of conventional and emerging communication systems. This study considers a single-input multiple-output system that consists of a single-antenna transmitter, a multi-antenna legitimate receiver, and an active multiantenna eavesdropper. To this end, novel exact analytic expressions are derived for the corresponding average secrecy capacity and secrecy outage probability, which are corroborated by respective results from computer simulations. Capitalizing on the offered results, the physical layer security is quantified in terms of different parameters, which leads to useful insights on the impact of non-homogeneous fading environment and the number of employed antennas on the achieved physical layer security levels of the underlying system configuration. The offered results and insights are useful for the design of such systems as well as for the computational requirements and sustainability relating to such systems, since emerging communications are largely characterized by stringent quality of service and complexity requirements.acceptedVersionPeer reviewe
Tensor-Based Methods for Blind Spatial Signature Estimation in Multidimensional Sensor Arrays
The estimation of spatial signatures and spatial frequencies is crucial for several practical applications such as radar, sonar, and wireless communications. In this paper, we propose two generalized iterative estimation algorithms to the case in which a multidimensional (R-D) sensor array is used at the receiver. The first tensor-based algorithm is an R-D blind spatial signature estimator that operates in scenarios where the source’s covariance matrix is nondiagonal and unknown. The second tensor-based algorithm is formulated for the case in which the sources are uncorrelated and exploits the dual-symmetry of the covariance tensor. Additionally, a new tensor-based formulation is proposed for an L-shaped array configuration. Simulation results show that our proposed schemes outperform the state-of-the-art matrix-based and tensor-based techniques
