Throughput Analysis of Dynamic Spectrum Anti-Jamming Multiple-Access in HF Communication Systems

A multiple-access networking scheme based on the new dynamic spectrum anti-jamming system is proposed in this paper. The network consists of a center node and multiple user nodes. The center node detects spectrum holes in the operation band periodically according to the user performance target. Detected spectrum holes are allocated to users who request communication. Throughput of this networking scheme is analyzed over a high-frequency(HF) interference channel. The effect of error correction coding and spectrum hole information transmission error is discussed. Throughput of this scheme and conventional frequency-hopping multiple-access(FHMA) scheme are compared. Results show that user performance increase leads to throughput decrease, which can be offset by error correction coding. If spectrum hole information transmission is in error, the throughput is not affected much as long as the bit error rate is below 10-2. Furthermore, throughput of this scheme is obviously superior to the throughput of FHMA scheme.

LINEAR-DISPERSION DIVISION MULTIPLE-ACCESS FOR MIMO SYSTEMS

Comprehensive study on novel Linear-Dispersion Division Multiple-Access(LDDMA) for multi-user uplink Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO)systems is proposed.In the new multi-plexing scheme,each user’s information symbol is dispersed by a User-Specific Matrix(USM)both inspace and time domain and linearly combined at base-station side.And a simple random search al-gorithm,based on capacity maximization criteria,is developed to generate a bank of USMs.Simulationresults are presented to demonstrate the advantages of LDDMA.When the Bit Error Rate(BER)reaches 10–3,the performance gains are 3dB and 5dB,compared with Time-Division Linear DispersionCodes(TD-LDC)and BLAST,respectively.

Fiber-based multiple-access frequency synchronization via 1f–2f dissemination

Considering the reference frequency dissemination requirements of the Square Kilometre Array telescope（SKA）project,on the basis of the 1f–2f precision frequency synchronization scheme,we propose and demonstrate a fiber-based multiple-access frequency synchronization scheme.The dissemination reference frequency can be recovered at arbitrary nodes along the entire fiber link.It can be applied to antennas close proximity to the SKA central station,and will lead to a better SKA frequency synchronization network.As a performance test,we recover the disseminated 100-MHz reference frequency at an arbitrary node chosen as being 5 km away from the transmitting site.Relative frequency stabilities of2.0×10^（-14）/s and 1.6×10^（-16）/10~4 s are obtained.We also experimentally verify the feasibility of a frequency dissemination link with three access points.

Mathematical demonstration of correlation of optical prime code

Starting from the configuration of the optical prime code, a kind of key signature code for the optical code-division multiple access （OCDMA） system, based on the linear congruence theory in the finite Galois field, the correlation properties of the basic prime code, the extended prime code and the modified prime code are mathematically analyzed, the distribution of cross-correlation values is given and the overlap area of ＂1＂s in the case of periodically circularly shifting is indicated. It is mathematically demonstrated that the maximum cross-correlation of the basic prime code is 2, and that of the extended prime code and the modified prime code is 1. The integrated correlation analysis process is proposed. The signal-interfere ratio （SIR） and the BER performance of the systems employing different signature codes are calculated, respectively, and the performances of OCDMA systems employing different signature codes mode are compared.

A Particle Filter of Blind Equalization and Multiuser Detection in Asynchronous DS/CDMA Systems

The particle filter （PF） is proposed to be the asynchronous direct-sequence code-division multiple-access （DS/CDMA） multiuser detector without knowing the channel state information. The PF performs symbol detection according to the joint posterior density probability of simulated particles including relative delays, fading gains and symbols via sequential importance sample and resample. A simplified scheme is also proposed by separating the indepent relative delays and fading with symbols. These parameters are modeled as the extended aggressive processes and estimated by the Kalman filter, so as to provide their arbitrary distribution for symbol detection. Simulation results show that the bit error rate of the PF is less than conventional detectors. Moreover, the complexity of PF is moderate comparable to other nonlinear suboptimal approaches.

Tunable Super-Structured Fiber Bragg Gratings with Perfect Sequences Based on m-Sequence

Recently, a tunable fiber Bragg grating(FBG) was developed by using stress-responsive colloidal crystals. In this paper, we have simulated the application of these nanoparticles into the super-structured fiber Bragg grating(SSFBG) written with perfect sequences derived from a short maximal-length sequence. A tunable SSFBG will be available to overcome the prohibitive temperature variation of the optical codecs. Nevertheless,we presented a method to implement coherent time spreading optical code-division multiple-access(OCDMA) where a unique code(or perfect sequence) can be reused and mixed with different wavelengths to obtain a tunable wavelength-division multiplexing(WDM)system. In order to maximize the binary throughput, we have selected a unique short maximal-length sequence composed of 7 chips that can be tuned with 7 different optical wavelengths. We found thousands of different tunable combinations that presented power contrast ratios(P/C) higher than 12 dB. When a WDM-OCDMA system used 2 different combinations simultaneously, the perfect binary detection with error correction codes was achieved successfully. The tunable SSFBG with colloidal crystals will be a simple and good alternative choice for fiber-to-the-home(FTTH) communications.

BLIND MULTIUSER DETECTION FOR V-BLAST CODED MULTICARRIER CDMA SYSTEM

Focusing on the space-time coded multiuser mobile communication systems in the frequency-selective fading environment, this paper proposes a Vertical Bell labs LAyered Space-Time (V-BLAST) coded Multicarrier Code-Division Multiple-Access (MC-CDMA) scheme and its blind channel identification algorithm. This algorithm employs an ESPRIT-like method and the singular value decomposition, and the channels between every transmit antenna of every user and every receive antenna of the base station are blindly estimated with a closed-form solution. Based on it, an equivalent Minimum Mean-Squared Error (MMSE) time-domain multiuser detector is derived. Moreover, the proposed scheme exploits the precoding in the transmitter in order to eliminate the constraint of more receive antennas than transmit ones, required by most conventional V-BLAST codec schemes. Computer simulation results demonstrate the validity of this proposed scheme.

SUCCESSIVE BEAMFORMING,MULTIUSER DETECTION AND DIVERSITY RECEPTION FOR MULTICARRIER DS-CDMA SYSTEM WITH ANTENNA ARRAY

Code-Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) systems are interference limited,and therefore efficient interference management is necessary to enhance the performance of a CDMA system.In this paper,a successive beamforming (spatial filtering),linear decorrelating MultiUser Detection (MUD, temporal filtering) and diversity reception structure for uplink multicarrier Direct Sequence CDMA (DS-CDMA) system with antenna array are proposed.By beamforming,the antenna array suppresses interference according to the distinct array signature.Subsequently,linear decorrelating MUD is ap- plied to separate the signals of different users and eliminate Multiple Access Interference (MAI).Finally, the decorrelated signals at different subcarriers that belong to the same user are combined to achieve frequency diversity.Simulation results show that the proposed structure offers significant Bit Error Rate (BER) performance improvement by successively exploiting the space-time-frequency processing.

HYBRID ORTHOGONAL/RANDOM MULTIPLE ACCESS SCHEME WITH IMPROVED PERFORMANCE FOR DOWNLINK CDMA SYSTEMS

In this paper, a hybrid orthogonal and random multiple access scheme with improved performance for capacity-enhanced downlink Code-Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) systems is presented, which is in fact a combination of the conventional orthogonal spreading scheme and the synchronous Interleave Division Multiple Access (IDMA) scheme. The proposed scheme can achieve near single user performance for very large number of users by the iterative turbo like detection. Analysis and simulation results show that the proposed scheme performs better than the synchronous IDMA scheme for the same time complexity. Meanwhile, larger capacity can be provided compared with the conventional orthogonal schemes.

PDA DETECTOR FOR DS-CDMA COOPERATIVE SYSTEM

This paper considers the uplink of a cooperative Code-Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) system where parts of mobile nodes serve as source nodes while the others serve as relay nodes at any instant in time. When the non-orthogonal spreading codes are adopted,Multiple Access Interference (MAI) will exist at both the relay nodes and the base node,causing diversity gain to diminish. To mitigate MAI and exploit full advantages of cooperation,the Probabilistic Data Association (PDA) is developed at the relay nodes and the base node. Simulation results demonstrate that some performance gains can be obtained by the PDA detector over the Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) detector at high Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and conversely at low SNR.

SVM multiuser detection based on heuristic kernel

A support vector machine （SVM） based multiuser detection （MUD） scheme in code-division multi- ple-access （CDMA） system is proposed. In this scheme, the equivalent support vector （SV） is obtained through a kernel sparsity approximation algorithm, which avoids the conventional costly quadratic pro-gramming （QP） procedure in SVM. Besides, the coefficient of the SV is attained through the solution to a generalized eigenproblem. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme has almost the same bit er-ror rate （BER） as the standard SVM and is better than minimum mean square error （MMSE） scheme. Meanwhile, it has a low comoutation complexity.

The results confirm that MAI can be suppressed effectively by pseudorandom coding with m sequences.

Analysis of Multichannel ALOHA and CSMA Protocols－Normal and Slotted Versions

The performance of ALOHA, Non-Persistent CSMA protocols and their slotted versions in Packet Radio Network is analyzed in consideration of the time of propagation delay, the time of radio transformation from receiving state to transmitting state, and the time for the radio to sense the carrier. The analysis shows that these parameters are the main factors deteriorating the performance of the protocols, especially for CSMA. The multichannel mode efficiently decreases the effects of these factors and the system capacity is changeable conveniently. Comparing curves and some simulation results are given.

JOINT SPACE-FREQUENCY MULTIUSER SYMBOL DETECTOR FOR MC-CDMA SYSTEM WITH UNIFORM LINEAR ARRAY

The MultiCarrier Code Division Multiple Access (MC-CDMA) scheme is promising for relieving capacity limit problems of Direct Sequence (DS-) CDMA systems due to serious InterChip Interference (ICI) and MultiUser Interference (MUI) in high-data-rate wireless communication systems. In this paper, the Uniform Linear Array (ULA) is applied to the base station of macrocellular MC-CDMA systems in a frequency-selective fading channel environment. A joint space-frequency multiuser symbol sequence detector is developed for all active users within one macrocell without space-frequency channel estimation. Simultaneously, Directions-Of-Arrivals (DOAs) of all active users can also be estimated. By dividing the ULA into two identical overlapping subarrays, a specific auxiliary matrix is constructed, which includes both symbol sequence and DOA information of all active users. Then, based on the subspace method, performing the eigen decomposition on such auxiliary matrix, the closed-form solution of symbol sequences and DOAs for all active users can be obtained. In comparison with schemes based on channel estimation, our algorithm need not explicitly estimate the space-frequency channel for each active user,so it has lower computation complexity. Extensive computer simulations demonstrate the overall performance of this novel scheme.

Downlink MBER Transmit Beamforming Design Based on Uplink MBER Receive Beamforming for TDD-SDMA Induced MIMO Systems

The downlink minimum bit error rate (MBER) transmit beamforming is directly designed based on the uplink MBER receive beamforming solution for time division duplex (TDD) space-division multiple-access (SDMA) induced multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, where the base station (BS) is equipped with multiple antennas to support multiple single-antenna mobile terminals (MTs). It is shown that the dual relationship between multiuser detection and multiuser transmission can be extended to the rank-deficient system where the number of users supported is more than the number of transmit antennas available at the BS, if the MBER design is adopted. The proposed MBER transmit beamforming scheme is capable of achieving better performance over the standard minimum mean square error transmit beamforming solution with the support of low-complexity and high power-efficient MTs, particularly for rank-deficient TDD-SDMA MIMO systems. The robustness of the proposed MBER transmit beamforming design to the downlink and uplink noise or channel mismatch is investigated using simulation.

THE PERFORMANCE OF MT-CDMA SYSTEM IN THE PRESENCE OF CARRIER FREQUENCY OFFSET

In this letter,the sensitivity of an uplink Multi-Tone Code-Division Multiple Access (MT-CDMA) system to the Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) is investigated. The analytical expression for the Bit Error Rate (BER) of uplink MT-CDMA in the presence of CFO is derived in a multipath Rayleigh fading channel which is verified through simulations. Both Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) and Equal Gain Combining (EGC) are considered in combining multipath signals in the analysis. It is found that the BER performance can be improved with the number of multipath increasing in the presence of CFO.

The simulation results show that low delay and low packet lost rate can be obtained.

LOW-COMPLEXITY BLIND MULTIUSER DETECTION OF DS-CDMA SIGNAL IN DISPERSIVE CHANNELS

The problem of blind multiuser detection in dispersive channels of Code-Division Multiple-Access (CDMA) in the presence of both Multiple-Access Interference (MAI) and InterSymbol Interference (ISI) is considered. In practice, it is showed that by incorporating the desired user's signature waveform and the auxiliary vector, the information of the user can be identified using the suboptimal subspace method. The major contribution of this paper is to propose a minimum-mean-square-error detector with the suboptimal subspace-based blind technique for joint suppression of MAI and ISI in the dispersive CDMA channels.

BER Performance of Space-Time Coded MMSE DFE for Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA)

In recent times, there has been growing interests in integration of voice, data and video traffic in wireless communication networks. With these growing interests, WCDMA has immerged as an attractive access technique. The performance of WCDMA system is deteriorated in presence of multipath fading environment. The paper presents space-time coded minimum mean square error (MMSE) Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) for wideband code division multiple access (WCDMA) in a frequency selective channel. The filter coefficients in MMSE DFE are optimized to suppress noise, intersymbol interference (ISI), and multiple access interference (MAI) with reasonable system complexity. For the above structure, we have presented the estimation of BER for a MMSE DFE using computer simulation experiments. The simulation includes the effects of additive white Gaussian noise, multipath fading and multiple access interference (MAI). Furthermore, the performance is compared with standard linear equalizer (LE) and RAKE receiver. Numerical and simulation results show that the MMSE DFE exhibits significant performance improvement over the standard linear equalizer (LE) and RAKE receiver.

Key issues of multiple access technique for LEO satellite communication systems

The large carrier frequency shift caused by the high-speed movement of satellite (Doppler effects) and the propagation delay on the up-down link are very critical issues in an LEO satellite communication system, which affects both the selection and the implementation of a suitable access method. A Doppler based multiple access technique is used here to control the flow and an MPRMA-HS protocol is proposed for the application in LEO satellite communication systems. The extended simulation trials prove that the proposed scheme seems to be a very promising access method.
