The performance of this concatenated TCM/CPM DS/SSMA system is exploited by the theoretical analysis and numerical simulations. The results demonstrate that significant improvements in error probability of this DS/SSMA system over the system with single TCM or CPM of different modulation indices can be achieved under the same conditions.

EFFICIENT BIT ERROR PROBABILITY EXPRESSION AND VERY TIGHT BOUND FOR MAXIMAL RATIO COMBINING DIVERSITY SYSTEMS OVER RAYLEIGH FADING CHANNEL

Bit Error Probability (BEP) provides a fundamental performance measure for wireless diversity systems. This paper presents two new exact BEP expressions for Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) diversity systems. One BEP expression takes a closed form, while the other is derived by treating the squared-sum of Rayleigh random variables as an Erlang variable. Due to the fact that the extant bounds are loose and could not properly characterize the error performance of MRC diversity systems, this paper presents a very tight bound. The numerical analysis shows that the new derived BEP expressions coincide with the extant expressions, and that the new approximation tightly bounds the accurate BEP.

Ergodic channel capacity of the spatial correlated rayleigh MIMO channel

The theoretical capacity of the spatial correlated Rayleigh multiple input multiple output （MIMO） channel is an important issue in MIMO technology. In this article, an ergodic channel capacity formula of the spatial correlated rayleigh MIMO channel is provided, which is deduced when two antennas exist at either the transmitter or the receiver. The multi-dimensional least-squares fit algorithm is employed to narrow the difference between the theoretical formula capacity and the practical capacity. Simulation results show that the theoretical capacity approaches the practical one closely.

Performance Analysis of Mixed Amplify-and-Forward and Decode-and-Forward Protocol in Underlay Cognitive Networks

In this paper, we propose and evaluate outage performance of a mixed amplify-and-forward(AF) and decode-and-forward(DF) relaying protocol in underlay cognitive radio. Different from the conventional AF and DF protocols, in the proposed protocol, a secondary source attempts to transmit its signal to a secondary destination with help of two secondary relays. One secondary relay always operates in AF mode, while the remaining one always operates in DF mode. Moreover, we also propose a relay selection method, which relies on the decoding status at the DF relay. For performance evaluation and comparison, we derive the exact and approximate closedform expressions of the outage probability for the proposed protocol over Rayleigh fading channel. Finally, we run Monte Carlo simulations to verify the derivations. Results presented that the proposed protocol obtains a diversity order of three and the outage performance of our scheme is between that of the conventional underlay DF protocol and that of the conventional underlay AF protocol.

Performance of MIMO Systems Using Space Time Block Codes (STBC)

Digital Communications, in relation to wireless networks, have taken off in recent years due to the expanding need to communicate faster and more efficiently. A popular way to achieve this is by using wireless Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) communication systems. MIMO systems utilize Space Time Block Codes (STBC) as one of the leading ways to obtain higher data rates with limited bandwidth and power. With several STBC methods currently available, this paper analyzes simulations using Orthogonal Space Time Block Codes (OSTBC) in Rayleigh fading channels to evaluate the performance of MIMO systems. The selection to use a Rayleigh fading channel as a model for a non-line-of-sight (nLOS) environment is selected to mimic installations where a large number of signal paths and reflections are expected. All simulations are coded, generated and plotted using MATLAB resulting in graphical data representing the bit-error rate (BER) to signal-to-noise ratio (Eb/N0) or SNR. Each simulation captures how different configurations of key variables including code rate, diversity and antenna count can impact system performance. Four modulation schemes (BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM and 64-QAM) are included in each simulation. Conclusive evidence based upon these simulations suggests higher diversity gains were achieved with a greater number of antennas. The most significant factor for increasing system performance was using a lower count of transmit antennas with a higher count of receive antennas.

Symbol Error Probability of Incremental Relaying with Distributed/Centralized Relay Selection

In this paper,we derive the Symbol Error Probability(SEP)of cooperative systems with incremental relaying and Distributed Relay Selection(DRS).The relays remain idle when the Signal to Noise Ratio(SNR)between the source and destination is larger than T.Otherwise,we activate a relay using DRS.Relay nodes transmit only if their SNR is larger than thresholdβ.If the SNRs of more than two relays is larger thanβ,there is a collision and the destination uses only the received signal from the source.If all relays have SNR less thanβ,no relay is chosen.Thresholdβis optimized to yield the lowest SEP at the destination.Our results are compared to centralized relay selection using opportunistic Amplify and Forward(OAF),Partial and Reactive Relay Selection(PRS and RRS).We compare our results to computer simulations for Rayleigh fading channels.

BLOCK ADAPTIVE SUBCARRIER ALLOCATION FOR WIRELESS MULTIUSER OFDM SYSTEM

In this paper, a blockwise adaptive subcarrier allocation algorithm for multiuser Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is introduced. Assuming the knowledge of channel information for all users, the algorithm minimizes the total transmit power while satisfying the total power and users' rate constraints. The result of simulation shows that the proposed algorithm reduces the average bit Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) by approximately 4 dB compared with OFDM-Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDM-FDMA), and supports more users in a multiuser Rayleigh fading channel. As assigning subcarriers in block, the computational complexity of the algorithm is much lower than that of the derivation of "water-filling" algorithm.

Robust signal recognition algorithm based on machine learning in heterogeneous networks

There are various heterogeneous networks for terminals to deliver a better quality of service. Signal system recognition and classification contribute a lot to the process. However, in low signal to noise ratio（SNR） circumstances or under time-varying multipath channels, the majority of the existing algorithms for signal recognition are already facing limitations. In this series, we present a robust signal recognition method based upon the original and latest updated version of the extreme learning machine（ELM） to help users to switch between networks. The ELM utilizes signal characteristics to distinguish systems. The superiority of this algorithm lies in the random choices of hidden nodes and in the fact that it determines the output weights analytically, which result in lower complexity. Theoretically, the algorithm tends to offer a good generalization performance at an extremely fast speed of learning. Moreover, we implement the GSM/WCDMA/LTE models in the Matlab environment by using the Simulink tools. The simulations reveal that the signals can be recognized successfully to achieve a 95% accuracy in a low SNR（0 dB） environment in the time-varying multipath Rayleigh fading channel.

Analytical Expression for the MIMO Channel Capacity

This paper presents analytical expressions for the multiple-input multiple-output （MIMO） channel capacity in frequency-flat Rayleigh fading environments. An exact analytical expression is given for the ergodic capacity for single-input multiple-output （SIMO） channels. The analysis shows that the SIMO channel capacity can be approximated by a Gaussian random variable and that the MIMO channel capacity can be approximated as the sum of multiple SIMO capacities. The SIMO channel results are used to derive approximate closed-form expressions for the MIMO channel ergodic capacity and the complementary cumulative distribution function （CCDF） of the MIMO channel capacity （outage capacity）. Simulations show that these theoretical results are good approximations for MIMO systems with an arbitrary number of transmit or receive antennas. Moreover, these analytical expressions are relatively simple which makes them very useful for practical computations.
