A group based random access protocol is designed for massive number of machine-typecommunications(MTC) user equipments'(UEs) transmissions. A user association problem for UEs' energy efficiency maximization is formulated considering the HTC UEs' quality of service(QoS) guarantees and load balance among multiple BSs, simultaneously. A distributed iterative algorithm is developed to solve the optimization problem. In addition, the convergence of the proposed algorithm is proved. Simulation results show that our proposed scheme outperforms other schemes in terms of energy efficiency and QoS guarantees.展开更多

A pragmatic channel-adaptive turbo coded modulation scheme, which comes within 2.5dB of the Shannon limit, was optimally designed, and then a QoS-adaptive scheme was superimposed to build the dual adaptive architecture. Simulation results show that the novel dual adaption reduces the difference with the fading channel capacity to 2dB when assuming different services occur in equal probability and the service duration follows the exponential distribution.展开更多

Unlike the exhaustive search over all the possible trans-mitted symbol vectors of the optimum maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) detector, the new algo-rithm evaluates only the symbol vectors that contribute significantly to the soft output of the detector. The algorithm is facilitated by carrying out the breadth-first search on a reconfigurable tree, constructed by computing the symbol reliability of each layer based on zero-forcing criterion and reordering the symbols according to the symbol reliabilities. Simulations are presented and the good performance of the new algo-rithm over a quasi-static Rayleigh channel even for relatively small list sizes are proved.展开更多
