Ergodic capacity analysis for device-to-device communication underlaying cellular networks

The ergodic capacity of device-to-device （D2D） communication underlaying cellular networks is analyzed. First,the D2D communication model is introduced and the interference during uplink period and downlink period is analyzed.In a D2D communication system,since it is very difficult to obtain the instantaneous channel state information （CSI）,assume that only the transmitters know the statistical CSI and the channel coefficient follows an independent complex Gaussian distribution.Based on the assumptions,for the uplink period,the signal to interference plus noise ratio （SINR）of the D2D user equipments（DUEs）is expressed. Then the cumulative distribution function （CDF ） and probability distribution function （PDF）formulae of the SINR of the DUEs are presented.Based on the SINR formulae during the uplink period,the ergodic capacity formula of the uplink period is derived. Subsequently, using the same methods,the ergodic capacity formula of the downlink period is derived.The simulation results show that the DUEs can still obtain a high ergodic capacity even in the case of a large number of DUEs.This result can be applied to the design and optimization of D2D communications.

Ergodic Capacity Evaluation of Multi-Hop Decode-and-Forward MIMO-OFDM Relaying Network

Spatial diversity plays a significant role in wireless communication systems,including the Fourth Generation(4G)and Fifth Generation(5G)systems,and it is expected to be a fundamental part of the future wireless communication systems as well.The Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO)technology,which is included in the IEEE 802.16j standard,still holds the most crucial position in the 4G spectrum as it promises to improve the throughput,capacity,spectral,and energy efficiency of wireless communication systems in the 2020s.This makes MIMO a viable technology for delay constrained medical and health care facilities.This paper presents an approximate closed-form expression of the ergodic capacity for the Decode-and-Forward(DF)protocol MIMO-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM)relaying network.Although MIMO-OFDM is highly valuable for modern high-speed wireless communication systems,especially in the medical sciences,its performance degrades in multi-hop relay networks.Therefore,in this paper,an approximate closed-form expression is derived for an end-to-end ergodic capacity of multi-hop DF MIMO-OFDM wireless communication system has been presented.Monte-Carlo simulations are conducted to verify the performance of the presented analysis regarding the capacity(bits/s/Hz)for different SNR-dB values for single,2×2,4×4,and multi-hop DF MIMOOFDM systems.The presented results provide useful insights for the research on the end-to-end ergodic capacity evaluation.

Ergodic Capacity Analysis and Adaptive Transsmion Scheme in Multi-user Distributed Antenna Systems

This paper focuses on analyzing the ergodic capacity performance of limited feedback (LFB) beamforming in multi-user distributed antenna system (DAS). In such a system, multi-user interference (MUI) is inevitably due to the channel uncertainties caused by quantization error. Considering this, we propose a parameter named effective ergodic capacity rate (EECR), which denotes the capacity offset between finite rate feedback and perfect channel state information (CSI). The simulation results show that the derived approximated EECR is very tight to actual EECR. Based on the approximated EECR, an adaptive minimum bit feedback scheme is proposed, which can effectively reduce the overhead of feedback channel and the complexity of the system. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

ERGODIC CAPACITY ANALYSIS FOR SIMO COGNITIVE FADING CHANNEL IN SPECTRUM SHARING ENVIRONMENT

In this paper,we consider the spectrum sharing Cognitive Radio(CR) system,wherein Single-Input Multi-Output(SIMO) cognitive fading channel is assumed.Subject to the average in-terference constraint of primary user,the ergodic capacity of cognitive user involving joint beamforming and power control is analyzed.We derive the optimal joint beamforming and power control strategy and deduce the general integral expression for ergodic capacity.Furthermore,under different channel fadings including Raleigh fading,Nakagami-m fading and Lognormal shadowing fading,the specific expressions of ergodic capacity for SIMO cognitive channel are exhibited.Most of the expressions are presented in closed-form or with some special integral functions.Large amount of simulations are conducted to corroborate our theoretical results.

ERGODIC CAPACITY FORMULA OF MIMO-OFDM SYSTEMS UNDER CORRELATED FREQUENCY SELECTIVE RAYLEIGH FADING CHANNELS

An explicit formula for the ergodic capacity of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM)-based Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems under correlated frequency selective Rayleigh channels is derived,by simplifying the channel response matrix in frequency domain into the so-called Kronecker model composed of three kinds of correlations,i.e.multipath tap gain correlation and spatial fading correlations at both transmitter and receiver.The derived formula is very simple and convenient for one to estimate the effects of all three kinds of correlations on MIMO-OFDM capacity.If taps are independent,there is a very simple expression for the ergodic capacity.In case of tap correlation,the capacity formula could be further given in an integral expression.The validity of the new formula is verified and the effects of correlations,delay spread as well as the number of subcarriers on the ergodic capacity are evaluated via Monte Carlo simulations.

Ergodic capacity of switch-and-examine combining under flat Rayleigh fading channels

Switch-and-examine combining （SEC） is an interesting diversity technique that is simpler than selection combining （SC）, whereas its performances is similar in terms of bit error rate （BER） and diversity order. As ergodic capacity is also a key performance index in modem wireless systems, this article analyzes the ergodic capacity of the SEC system. The numerical results show that the ergodic capacity of SEC with optimal threshold is similar to that of SC for arbitrary number of diversity branches.

Distributed IRS-Aided DF Relaying Systems:Performance Analysis and Optimization

Intelligent reflecting surface(IRS)is a newly emerged and promising paradigm to substantially improve the performance of wireless communications by constructing favorable communication channels via properly tuning massive reflecting elements.This paper considers a distributed IRS aided decode-and-forward(DF)relaying system over Nakagami-m fading channels.Based on a tight approximation for the distribution of the received signalto-noise ratio(SNR),we first derive exact closed-form expressions of the outage probability,ergodic capacity,and energy efficiency for the considered system.Moreover,we propose the optimal IRS configuration considering the energy efficiency and pilot overhead.Finally,we compare the performance between the distributed IRS-aided DF relaying and multi-IRS-only systems,and verify the analytical results by using monte carlo simulations.

Close-formed bound on generalized distributed antenna system capacity

The composite channel models of the generalized distributed antenna system （GDAS） such as Rayleigh-lognormal fading are studied. Then comparisons are performed between the GDAS and the traditional multiple-input multiple-output （MIMO） system to analyze the ergodic capacity of the GDAS and make conclusions that it is impossible to achieve an analytical expression for the ergodic capacity of the GDAS. Moreover, in order to evaluate the performance of the ergodic capacity of the GDAS conveniently, the analytical lower bound and upper bound of the ergodic capacity of the GDAS are derived by using the results from multivariate statistics and matrix inequalities, under the scenarios of Rayleigh-lognormal fading and equal power allocation scheme at transmitter. Finally, the analytical bounds are verified by comparisons with the numerical results.

Capacity Analysis and Optimization of Cognitive Ultra Wideband Networks

The integration of cognitive radio and Ultra wideband (UWB) networks has attracted lots of research interests. Cognitive UWB networks not only provide very high data rates but also guarantee the uninterrupted communication of primary system operated in the same frequency band. In this work, the problem of the capacity analyses of cognitive UWB networks is investigated. Different from the conventional cognitive spectrum sharing model which can only utilize the idle spectrum hole, the cognitive UWB system can operate adaptively based on spectrum sensing results. Taking into account several factors such as the transmission power constraint of UWB, the interference constraint of the receivers in primary systems, the secondary UWB network capacity problem is modeled as a convex optimization problem over the transmission power. The optimal power allocation strategy and algorithm are derived based on this optimization problem. Two cases (Perfect Spectrum Sensing and Imperfect Spectrum Sensing) are studied in the paper. Numerical simulation results show that the proposed adaptive power allocationscheme improves the ergodic and outage capacity under both transmission power and interference constraints compared with constant transmission power scheme.

Fundamental capacity for peak interference power constrained cognitive radio relay networks

A Cognitive radio communication link is possible to be interrupted easily when its physical channel suffers severe fading. Relay technology is an effective way to mitigate the fading effect of wireless channels in a network. Based on the highest achievable rate of the relay channels, this paper considers a cognitive radio relay network where the secondary transmitter communicates with the receiver through the best relay node under the peak power constraint of a primary receiver. Intuitively, the secondary transmission can benefit from an intermediate relay node chosen from N possible nodes. To quantify this benefit, outage probability of cognitive radio relay networks is derived and also the closed-form expressions for outage capacity and ergodic capacity of cognitive radio relay networks are obtained in Rayleigh fading channels. Numerical simulation results are provided to show that the outage capacity and ergodic capacity benefit tremendously by properly increasing the number of relaying nodes.

Opportunistic Relaying Technique over Rayleigh Fading Channel to Improve Multicast Security

The performance of Rayleigh fading channels is substantially impacted by the impacts of relays, antennas, and the number of branches. Opportunistic relaying is a potent technique for enhancing the effects of the aforementioned factors while enhancing the performance of fading channels. Due to these issues, a secure wireless multicasting scenario using opportunistic relaying over Rayleigh fading channel in the presence of multiple wiretappers is taken into consideration in this study. So the investigation of a secure wireless multicasting scenario using opportunistic relaying over Rayleigh fading channel in the presence of multiple wiretappers is the focus of this paper. The primary goals of this study are to maximize security in wireless multicasting while minimizing security loss caused by the effects of relays, branches at destinations and wiretappers, as well as multicast users and wiretappers through opportunistic relaying. To comprehend the insight effects of prior parameters, the closed form analytical expressions are constructed for the probability of non-zero secrecy multicast capacity (PNSMC), ergodic secrecy multicast capacity (ESMC), and secure outage probability for multicasting (SOPM). The findings demonstrate that opportunistic relaying is a successful method for reducing the loss of security in multicasting.

Performance Analysis of Full-Duplex Based Two-Way Relaying

Cooperative communication is regarded as a promising technique for improving the reliability of wireless communication links and enhancing the radio coverage simultaneously. Unlike the conventional half-duplex(HD) mode relaying techniques,the full-duplex based two-way relaying(FD-TWR) enables data exchanges between two nodes to be completed within a single time-slot,thus resulting in a significant improvement in the spectrum efficiency. In this paper,the channel model of the FD-TWR is first given out,followed by deriving the critical performance metrics,including the received signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio(SINR),the upper bound of the ergodic capacity and the closedform solution of the proposed FD-TWR under amplify-and-forward(AF) mode. Furthermore,taking the limit of sum-transmit-power into account,we formulate the objective function of the optimal power allocation of FD-TWR as an extreme-value problem by deriving the optimal transmit power for both the source nodes and the relay node. As long as the self-interference(SI) signal in the FD-TWR nodes can be sufficiently suppressed,the proposed scheme is shown to outperform the conventional HD mode in terms of both the ergodic capacity and the outage probability. In addition,regardless of the practical SI power,the proposedFD-TWR is always capable of achieving its best performance with an aid of the proposed optimal power allocation scheme.

Antenna Selection in Energy Harvesting Relaying Networks Using Q-Learning Algorithm

In this paper,a novel opportunistic scheduling(OS)scheme with antenna selection(AS)for the energy harvesting(EH)cooperative communication system where the relay can harvest energy from the source transmission is proposed.In this considered scheme,we take into both traditional mathematical analysis and reinforcement learning(RL)scenarios with the power splitting(PS)factor constraint.For the case of traditional mathematical analysis of a fixed-PS factor,we derive an exact closed-form expressions for the ergodic capacity and outage probability in general signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)regime.Then,we combine the optimal PS factor with performance metrics to achieve the optimal transmission performance.Subsequently,based on the optimized PS factor,a RL technique called as Q-learning(QL)algorithm is proposed to derive the optimal antenna selection strategy.To highlight the performance advantage of the proposed QL with training the received SNR at the destination,we also examine the scenario of QL scheme with training channel between the relay and the destination.The results illustrate that,the optimized scheme is always superior to the fixed-PS factor scheme.In addition,a better system parameter setting with QL significantly outperforms the traditional mathematical analysis scheme.

Secure Resource Allocation in Device-to-Device Communications Underlaying Cellular Networks

With increasing the demand for transmitting secure information in wireless networks,deviceto-device(D2D)communication has great potential to improve system performance.As a well-known security risk is eavesdropping in D2D communication,ensuring information security is quite challenging.In this paper,we first obtain the closed-forms of the secrecy outage probability(SOP)and the secrecy ergodic capacity(SEC)for direct and decodeand-forward(DF)relay modes.Numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical results,and these results show the cases that the DF relay mode improves security performance compared to the direct mode at long distances between the transmitter and receiver nodes.Further,we look into the optimization problems of secure resource allocation in D2D communication to maximize the SEC and to minimize the SOP by considering the strictly positive secrecy capacity constraint as a mixed-integer non-linear programming(MINLP)problem.In the continue,we convert the MINLP to convex optimization.Finally,we solve this program with a dual method and obtain an optimal solution in the direct and DF relay modes.

Channel modeling and influenced factor analysis of the broadband dual-orthogonal polarized MIMO land mobile satellite channel

An accurate, complete and realistic channel model is re- quired to accurately analyze the system performance of a multiple input multiple output （MIMO） broadband satellite mobile commu- nication system with dual-orthogonal polarized antennas （DPAs）. In most current studies, the channel characteristic matrix （CCM） is always formed by an independent identical distribution （i.i.d） model of Rayleigh or Rice distribution and nevertheless incomplete and inaccurate to describe a broadband dual-orthogonal polarized MIMO land mobile satellite （BDM-LMS） channel. This paper fo- cuses on establishing the BDM-LMS channel statistical model, which combines the 4-state broadband LMS channel model, the time selective fading features, the channel covariance information （CCI） channel model and polarization correlations between an- tennas. The modeling steps of the channel model are introduced. The main emphasis is placed on the effects of the factors, such as antenna numbers, temporal correlations, terminal environments, elevation angles and polarization correlations between the DPAs, on the channel capacity in the BDM-LMS system. Many simulation results are provided to illustrate the effects of these factors through comparisons of the transmit rate, ergodic capacity and outage capacity with different factor values. Besides, the MIMO outage capacity advantages, which indicate the benefits of MIMO com- pared with a single input single output （SISO） system under the same channel condition, are also studied under i.i.d or BDM-LMS channel.

Dual Waterfilling Power Allocation Algorithm in MIMO Systems

Aiming at the problem of resource allocation in multiuser multi-input multi-output (MIMO)systems,a new power allocation algorithm based on dual waterfilling is proposed.Block diagonalization is adopted to cancel the inter-user interference,and then the complete diagonalization method is employed to derive the spatial sub-channels for each user.The overall power of the system is divided among users based on each user’s large scale fading;then the power of each user is further allocated to its spatial sub-channels based on the small scale fading.Simulation results show that compared with the existing resource allocation strategies,the proposed algorithm can provide more ergodic capacity for multi-user MIMO systems.When the total transmit power is 100w,it has 15%capacity advantage over the traditional waterfilling method.

OPTIMAL POWER ALLOCATION FOR COGNITIVE RADIO UNDER INTERFERENCE OUTAGE CONSTRAINT

Cognitive radio is able to share the spectrum with primary licensed user,which greatly improves the spectrum efficiency.We study the optimal power allocation for cognitive radio to maximize its ergodic capacity under interference outage constraint.An optimal power allocation scheme for the secondary user with complete channel state information is proposed and its approxi-mation is presented in closed form in Rayleigh fading channels.When the complete channel state in-formation is not available,a more practical transmitter-side joint access ratio and transmit power constraint is proposed.The new constraint guarantees the same impact on interference outage prob-ability at primary user receiver.Both the optimal power allocation and transmit rate under the new constraint are presented in closed form.Simulation results evaluate the performance of proposed power allocation schemes and verify our analysis.

We first present new closed-form expressions for optimal received Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR),which is expressed in polynomial form. These are used to analyze ergodic capacity,outage probability and Bit Error Rate (BER) of TAS/MRC systems. Numerical results are presented to validate the theoretical analysis.

Beamforming Scheme for MIMO Relay Based 5G and beyond Wireless Network

In this paper, in order to attain the maximum ergodic capacity and significantly increase the spectral efficiency of wireless communication systems, novel linear beamforming is proposed for dual-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) multi-relay networks. The linear beamforming is designed based on the maximization of the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and signal-to- leakage-and-noise ratio (SLNR). The channel state information (CSI) is used in applying this new design to multi-relay (MR) nodes between the source and relays as well as relays and destination. The beamforming optimization problem is solved by using the Fukunaga-Koontz Transform (FKT). The scheme can achieve intra-node array and distributed gains by using multiple antennas and multi-relays (MRs). The performance of the proposed scheme demonstrates that by considering interference mitigation criteria the ergodic capacity at a significant level is improved as compared to the conventional techniques. Therefore, the proposed techniques based on the maximization of the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and signal-to-leakage-and-noise ratio (SLNR) relay processing outperform other conventional techniques in case of a multi-relay dual-hop network in terms of ergodic.

LoS MIMO Transmission for LEO Satellite Communication Systems

To provide global service with low latency, the broadband low earth orbits (LEO) satellite constellation based communication systems have become one of the focuses in academic and industry. To allow for wideband access for user links, the feeder link of LEO satellite is correspondingly required to support high throughput data communications. To this end, we propose to apply line-of-sight (LoS) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transmission for the feeder link to achieve spatial multiplexing by optimizing the antenna arrangement. Unlike the LoS MIMO applications for static scenarios, the movement of LEO satellites make it impractical to adjust the optimal antenna separation for all possible satellite positions. To address this issue, we propose to design the antenna placement to maximize the ergodic channel capacity during the visible region of the ground station. We first derive the closed-form probability distribution of the satellite trajectory in visible region. Based on which the ergodic channel capacity can be then calculated numerically. The antenna placement can be further optimized to maximize the ergodic channel capacity. Numerical results verify the derived probability distribution of the satellite trajectory, and show that the proposed LoS MIMO scheme can significantly increase the ergodic channel capacity compared with the existing SISO one.
