Receive Spatial Modulation for Massive MIMO Systems
In this paper, we consider the downlink of a massive
multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) single user transmission system operating
in the millimeter wave outdoor narrowband channel environment. We propose a
novel receive spatial modulation architecture aimed to reduce the power
consumption at the user terminal, while attaining a significant throughput. The
energy consumption reduction is obtained through the use of analog devices
(amplitude detector), which reduces the number of radio frequency chains and
analog-to-digital-converters (ADCs). The base station transmits spatial and
modulation symbols per channel use. We show that the optimal spatial symbol
detector is a threshold detector that can be implemented by using one bit ADC.
We derive closed form expressions for the detection threshold at different
signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) regions showing that a simple threshold can be
obtained at high SNR and its performance approaches the exact threshold. We
derive expressions for the average bit error probability in the presence and
absence of the threshold estimation error showing that a small number of pilot
symbols is needed. A performance comparison is done between the proposed system
and fully digital MIMO showing that a suitable constellation selection can
reduce the performance gap
Retrospective Interference Alignment for the MIMO Interference Broadcast Channel
The degrees of freedom (DoF) of the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)
Interference Broadcast Channel (IBC) with 2 cells and 2 users per cell are
investigated when only delayed channel state information is available at the
transmitter side (delayed CSIT). Retrospective Interference Alignment has shown
the benefits in terms of DoF of exploiting delayed CSIT for interference,
broadcast and also for the IBC. However, previous works studying the IBC with
delayed CSIT do not exploit the fact that the users of each cell are served by
a common transmitter. This work presents a four-phase precoding strategy taking
this into consideration. Assuming that transmitters and receivers are equipped
with antennas, respectively, new DoF inner bounds are proposed,
outperforming the existing ones for .Comment: 1 copyright page + 5 paper pages + 3 appendix pages, Submitted to

Retrospective Interference Alignment for the 3-user MIMO Interference Channel with delayed CSIT
The degrees of freedom (DoF) of the 3-user multiple input multiple output
interference channel (3-user MIMO IC) are investigated where there is delayed
channel state information at the transmitters (dCSIT). We generalize the ideas
of Maleki et al. about {\it Retrospective Interference Alignment (RIA)} to be
applied to the MIMO IC, where transmitters and receivers are equipped with
antennas, respectively. We propose a two-phase transmission scheme
where the number of slots per phase and number of transmitted symbols are
optimized by solving a maximization problem. Finally, we review the existing
achievable DoF results in the literature as a function of the ratio between
transmitting and receiving antennas . The proposed scheme improves
all other strategies when .Comment: Draft version of the accepted manuscript at IEEE ICASSP 1
On the Degrees of freedom of the K-user MISO Interference Channel with imperfect delayed CSIT
This work investigates the degrees of freedom (DoF) of the K-user
multiple-input single-output (MISO) interference channel (IC) with imperfect
delayed channel state information at the transmitters (dCSIT). For this
setting, new DoF inner bonds are provided, and benchmarked with
cooperation-based outer bounds. The achievability result is based on a
precoding scheme that aligns the interfering received signals through time,
exploiting the concept of Retrospective Interference Alignment (RIA). The
proposed approach outperforms all previous known schemes. Furthermore, we study
the proposed scheme under channel estimation errors (CEE) on the reported
dCSIT, and derive a closed-form expression for the achievable DoF with
imperfect dCSIT.Comment: Draft version of the accepted manuscript at IEEE ICASSP 1
Diversity mdir receiver for space-time dispersive channels
A particular property of the cellebrated MDIR receiver is introduced in this communication, namely, the fact that full exploitation of the diversity is obtained with multiple beamformers when the channel is spatially and timely dispersive. Therefore a new structure is developped which provides better performance. The hardware need for this new receiver may be obtained through reconfigurability of the RAKE architectures available at the base station. It will be tested in the FDD mode of UTRA.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
