Mode Selection for CoMP Transmission with Nonideal Synchronization

This paper proposes a mode selection scheme to improve the spectral efficiency for coordinated multi-point(CoMP) transmission with phase synchronization errors(PSE). Upper bounds of average achievable rate for different CoMP transmission modes, such as coordinated beamforming(CB) and joint processing(JP), are derived by random matrix theory and asymptotic mathematical approximation. According to these upper bounds, the proposed scheme switches CoMP transmission mode between CB and JP adaptively to enhance the average achievable rate. Simulation results show that these upper bounds agree well with the average achievable rates for both JP and CB, and the proposed scheme outperforms traditional single mode CoMP transmission when PSE exist.

Deformation patterns and hydrocarbon potential related to intracratonic strike-slip fault systems in the east of Central Uplift Belt in the Tarim Basin

Strike-slip faults,proven to be closely linked to hydrocarbon migration and accumulation,are wide-spread in the Tarim Basin Craton.Deformation patterns in the eastern part of the Central Uplift Belt of the Tarim Basin are analyzed in detail to understand the deformation model and genetic mechanism of strike-slip faults,how their patterns impact reservoir formation and influence oil and gas potential.Regional tectonic events are taken into consideration to identify the primary factors that controlled the development of strike-slip faults in the region.The Tazhong Uplift in the eastern part of Central Uplift Belt is believed to be a complex anticlinal uplift formed by compression-and-torsion acting on the Cambrian-Middle Ordovician platform during the middle-late Caledonian period.Multi-stage development of this north-trending fault-fold belt and the NE-trending strike-slip faults make it structurally complex.The NE-trending Paleozoic strike-slip faults were formed jointly by the differential thrusting of the Tazhong Uplift along Fault No.Ⅰand the NE-trending shear sliding of the basal fault blocks during the middle-late Caledonian-early Hercynian.Based on the distribution of effective source rocks,the tectonic setting during the period critical to hydrocarbon accumulation,and the distribution of conductive faults,the northern slope of the Tazhong Upliftd-especially its west-central part where the NE-trending faults are developed is not only located close to the northern hydrocarbon source rock area but also possesses conditions suitable for the development of carbonate reservoirs.In addition,the NE-trending faults provide passage for initial development of the reservoir and the subsequent migration of oil and gas from the Aman area to the uplifted zone,making the Tazhong Uplift an extremely favorable area for oil and gas accumulation with substantial potential for exploration.

Collaborative beamforming based on directional perturbation using one bit feedback

A novel collaborative beamforming algorithm is proposed in a wireless communication system with multiple transmitters and one receiver. All transmitters take part in the collaboration and the weighted message is transmitted simultaneously. In order to maximize the beamforming gain, the transmitters use one bit feedback information to adjust the phase offset. It tracks the direction in which the signal strength at the receiver can increase. The directional search and perturbation theory is used to achieve the phase alignment. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm is proved both experimentally and theoretically. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the convergent speed of the phase alignment.

The analysis of coverage probability,ASE and EE in heterogeneous ultra-dense networks with power control

The ultra-dense network is a promising technology to increase the network capacity in the forthcoming fifthgeneration(5G)mobile communication networks by deploying lots of low power Small Base Stations(SBSs)which overlap with Macro Base Stations(MBSs).The interference and energy consumption increase rapidly with the number of SBSs although each SBS transmits with small power.In this paper,we model a downlink heterogeneous ultra-dense network where a lot of SBSs are randomly deployed with MBSs based on the Poisson point process.We derive the coverage probability and its variance,and analyze the area spectral efficiency and energy efficiency of the network considering three Fractional Power Control(FPC)strategies.The numerical results and Monte Carlo simulation results show that power control can mitigate the interference and balance the performances of inner-user and edge-user equipments.Especially,a great improvement of energy efficiency is archived with a little loss of area spectral efficiency when FPC is adopted.Finally,we analyze the effect of base stations’(BSs’)sleeping on the performance of the network when it is partially loaded.
