非合作情况下WCDMA系统期望小区信号分离与多径DOA估计

在非合作情况下,针对WCDMA系统下行多小区混合信号,提出了一种期望小区信号分离算法,该算法采用多天线接收方案,同时利用小区主扰码及导频信道扩频码特性对混合信号进行解扰解扩处理,综合利用多径信号的空间与时间的可分辨性来估计期望小区多径波束矢量来抑制干扰小区的多径分量,以实现多小区混合信号分离。仿真结果表明,该算法在低信噪比的情况能有效抑制干扰小区多径分量,同时能对期望小区多径DOA进行准确估计,信噪比在-15 dB时,DOA估计均方根误差可以达到0.1°。

基于乘性加扰的卫星信号遮蔽传输方案

针对卫星发送功率受限的情况,提出了一种卫星信号遮蔽传输的新方案。在卫星上,通过将待传输的业务信号与特别设计的非恒包络遮蔽信号相乘,隐藏了原业务信号的时频域特征。在授权地面站,利用遮蔽信号副本进行互相关时延估计并解遮蔽,从而恢复原业务信号。该方案具有不增加卫星的传输功耗、星上遮蔽运算复杂度低、传输安全性强等特点。此外,通过处理损耗、互信息等定量评价指标,分析了遮蔽方案的遮蔽性能。仿真实验表明,该遮蔽方案可以实现良好的时频域遮蔽效果。遮蔽后信号与原业务信号间的互信息结果表明:遮蔽后信号与原业务信号间相关性很弱,已基本掩盖原业务信号通信特征。在遮蔽信号与原业务信号带宽之比不小于0.3、信噪比不小于–4 dB的条件下,授权地面站解遮蔽的处理损耗可以控制在1 dB以内,具有良好的实用价值。

MINIMUM-PHASE FIR PRECODER DESIGN FOR MULTICASTING OVER MIMO FREQUENCY-SELECTIVE CHANNELS

To maximize the throughput of frequency-selective multicast channel, the minimum-phase Finite Impulse Response (FIR) precoder design is investigated in this paper. This problem can be solved in two steps. Firstly, we focus on designing a nonminimum-phase FIR precoder under the criterion of maximizing the throughput, and develop two efficient algorithms for the FIR precoder design from perspectives of frequency domain and time domain. In the second step, based on the theory of spectral factorization, the nonminimum-phase FIR precoder is transformed into the corresponding minimum-phase FIR precoder by a classic iterative algorithm without affecting the throughput. Numerical results indicate that the achievable rate of the proposed design has remarkable improvement over that of existing schemes, moreover, the group delay introduced by the FIR precoder is minimized.
