Analysis of RF Feedback Chain Isolation in Wireless Co-Time Co-Frequency Full Duplex

By employing a radio frequency(RF) feedback chain, the self-interference can be canceled efficiently in co-time co-frequency full duplex(CCFD). However, the evitable signal crosstalk which is caused by the imperfect RF feedback chain isolation usually damages the self-interference cancelation(SIC) performance. To deal with this problem, firstly, we analyze the impact of RF feedback chain isolation on SIC performance. Then a digital preprocessing scheme with RF feedback chain is proposed in the multiple-antenna CCFD architecture. Using both analytical and experimental methods, we find that the proposed scheme achieves a better performance on SIC.

Hybrid coordinated strategy of downlink coordinated multi-point transmission

Coordinated multi-point （CoMP） transmission is put forward in the long term evolution-advanced （LTE-A） system to improve both average and cell-edge throughput. CoMP-joint pro- cessing （JP） scheme can get a larger cell-edge throughput and a lower bit error rate （BER） than the CoMP-coordinated beamform- ing （CB） scheme, but it also has higher complexity due to data sharing. A hybrid coordinated strategy with parameter c~, which indicates the proportion of users employing the CoMP-JP scheme, is proposed to apply the CoMP-JP scheme to improve the poorer communication quality of cell edge and employ the CoMP-CB scheme for other users to enhance average throughput and spec- tral efficiency. This paradigm selects users defined by the certain threshold of signal to interference plus noise power ratio （SINR） corresponding to the parameter a to the CoMP-JP scheme. This paper compares the BER performance between the block diag- onalization （BD） based precoding and the linear precoders by maximizing signal to leakage and noise ratio （SLNR）, and also in- dicates that the SLNR based precoding algorithm gets lower BER than the BD based precoding algorithm with certain signal-to-noise ratios （SNRs）. Finally, this paper discusses that the system perfor- mance is partially affected by the percentage of CoMP-JP users and concludes that 50% of users sorted to communicate under the CoMP-JP scheme will reach the best system performance.

Sub-channel shared resource allocation for multi-user distributed MIMO-OFDM systems

Well-controlled resource allocation is crucial for promoting the performance of multiple input multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(MIMO-OFDM) systems. Recent studies have focused primarily on traditional centralized systems or distributed antenna systems(DASs), and usually assumed that one sub-carrier or sub-channel is exclusively occupied by one user. To promote system performance, we propose a sub-channel shared resource allocation algorithm for multiuser distributed MIMO-OFDM systems. Each sub-channel can be shared by multiple users in the algorithm, which is different from previous algorithms. The algorithm assumes that each user communicates with only two best ports in the system. On each sub-carrier, it allocates a sub-channel in descending order, which means one sub-channel that can minimize signal to leakage plus noise ratio(SLNR) loss is deleted until the number of remaining sub-channels is equal to that of receiving antennas. If there are still sub-channels after all users are processed, these sub-channels will be allocated to users who can maximize the SLNR gain. Simulations show that compared to other algorithms, our proposed algorithm has better capacity performance and enables the system to provide service to more users under the same capacity constraints.
