A Method for Improving Power Distribution Characteristics of Space Time Block Codes

Improving power distribution characteristics of space time block codes(STBCs),namely peak to average power ratio(PAPR),average to minimum power ratio(Ave/min),and probability of transmitting"zero"by antenna,makes easier their practical implementation.To this end,this study proposes to multiply full diversity STB C with a non-singular matrix in multiple input multiple output(MIMO)or multiple input single output(MISO)systems with linear or maximum likelihood(ML)receivers.It is proved that the obtained code achieves full diversity and the order of detection complexity does not change.The proposed method is applied to different types of STBCs.The bit error rate(BER)and power distribution characteristics of the new codes demonstrate the superiority of the introduced method.Further,lower and upper bounds on the BER of the obtained STBCs are derived for all receivers.The proposed method provides trade-off among PAPR,spectral efficiency,energy efficiency,and BER.

Joint multi-user space time block coding and beamforming via convolutional weighting

A convolutional weighting （CW） scheme applied to a half-wavelength spacing array was proposed for multi-user system to joint STBC （space time block ceding） and beam forming （BF）. The transmitting beam is equivalent to the product of two sub-beams. One is used to realize interference suppression, while the other is employed to form a couple of uncorrelated channels from base station （BS） to the desited user （to meet the requirement of STBC） and to maximize SINR （signal-to-interference-plus noise ratio） at the desired receiver. As an optimum combination of STBC and beam forming, the proposed scheme can achieve both full diversity order of STBC and array gain of BF. Meanwhile, it can also effec- tively restrain multi-user interference by nulling. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can significantly improve the BER （Bit Error Rate） performance and enhance system capacity as compared with the conventional eigen-beamforming （EBF） technique applied to a half-wavelength spacing array.

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.

Capacity analysis of high-rank line-of-sight MIMO channels

Matrix perturbation theory is utilized to investigate high-rank line of sight multiple input multiple output channels in a microwave relay system. The upper and lower bounds of channel capacity are derived based on space time block codes technique and singular values decomposition. A useful constraint for designing LOS MIMO channels is developed by the use of the condition number of the MIMO channel matrix. The theoretical analysis of channel capacity is confirmed by the simulation. The results show that the proposed method is able to give a physical explanation of the high-rank LOS MIMO channel matrix characteristics.

Key technologies and risk management of deep tunnel construction at Jinping Ⅱ hydropower station

Tunneling in complex rock mass conditions is a challenging task, especially in the Himalayan terrain, where a number of unpredicted conditions are reported. Rock joint parameters such as persistence, spacing and shear strength are the factors which significantly modify the working environments in the vicinity of the openings. Therefore, a detailed tunnel stability assessment is critically important based on the field data collection on the excavated tunnel＇s face. In this context, intact as well as rock mass strength and deformation modulus is obtained from laboratory tests for each rock type encountered in the study area. Finite element method（FEM） is used for stability analysis purpose by parametrically varying rock joint persistence, spacing and shear strength parameters, until the condition of overbreak is reached. Another case of marginally stable condition is also obtained based on the same parameters. The results show that stability of tunnels is highly influenced by these parameters and the size of overbreak is controlled by joint persistence and spacing. Garnetiferous schist and slate characterized using high persistence show the development of large plastic zones but small block size, depending upon joint spacing; whereas low persistence, low spacing and low shear strength in marble and quartzite create rock block fall condition.

INTERFERENCE MITIGATION FOR ASYNCHRONOUS COOPERATIVE STBC-OFDM SYSTEMS

This paper addresses the problem of interference mitigation in cooperative Space Time Block Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (STBC-OFDM) systems in the presence of asyn-chronism. This scheme first preprocesses the received ST codewords to convert the equivalent fading matrix into a suboptimal ordering upper triangular form based on low complexity permutation QR decomposition, and then suppresses the InterCarrier Interference (ICI) and InterSymbol Interference (ISI) by exploiting Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) technique. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm slightly outmatches or asymptotically approaches to that of the existing Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) detector depending on the magnitude of the Carrier Frequency Offsets (CFOs) but with less complexity.

Unequal error protection system for robust video transmission

With the development of multimedia communication services, robust video transmission over wireless environment poses many challenges. A new UEP_BTC_STBC_OFDM system is proposed to provide unequal error protection for the source coded video stream in dispersive fading channel. The scheme concatenates the Block Turbo Code （BTC） with the Space-Time Block Code （STBC） for an OFDM system. With the proposed system, both the good error correcting capability of BTC and the concurrent large diversity gain characteristic of STBC can be achieved simultaneously with low encoding and decoding complexity. Furthermore, by combining with the data partition of H. 264 and different BTC codes, this system can guarantee high QoS control of video transmission. Simulation result shows that the proposed system outoerforms other reported schemes and has good performance of video transmission.

Cooperative MIMO MAC Transmission Using Space Codes in Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless sensor network （WSN） requires robust and efficient communication protocols to minimise delay and save energy. The lifetime of WSN can be maximised by selecting proper medium access control （MAC） scheme depending on the contention level of the network. The throughput of WSN however reduces due to channel fading effects even with the proper design of MAC protocol. Hence this paper proposes a new MAC scheme for enabling packet transmission using cooperative multi-input multi-output （MIMO） utilising space time codes（STC） such as space time block code （STBC）, space time trellis code （STTC） to achieve higher energy savings and lower delay by allowing nodes to transmit and receive information jointly. The performance of the proposed MAC protocol is evaluated in terms of transmission error probability, energy consumption and delay. Simulation results show that the proposed cooperative MIMO MAC protocol provides reliable and efficient transmission by leveraging MIMO diversity gains.
