As a new paradigm in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), correlated superposition coding (CSC) has gained an attention in the literature of NOMA, in contrast to standard independent superposition coding (ISC). In the conventional 3-user CSC scheme, it has been reported that the average allocated power can be reduced, owing to an introduced correlation between transmitted signals. Thus, this paper proposes a 3-user cross CSC scheme with purely-imaginary correlation coefficients. First, we derive the achievable data rates of the proposed 3-user cross CSC scheme, for each of the three users. Then, simulations demonstrate that for the proposed 3-user cross CSC scheme, the achievable data rates of the first and second users increase greatly and slightly, respectively, whereas the achievable data rate of the third user decreases little, compared to those of the conventional 3-user CSC scheme. In addition, we also show that the sum rate of the three users of the proposed 3-user cross CSC scheme is much larger than that of the three users of the conventional 3-user CSC scheme. As a result, the proposed 3-user cross CSC scheme could be a solution to the problem of the reduction of the average allocated total power in the conventional 3-user CSC scheme toward the fifth-generation (5G) NOMA mobile networks.

The efficiencies of rates and energy in the fifth generation (5G) wireless channels can be improved via intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) transmissions, towards the sixth generation (6G) mobile communications. While previous works have considered mainly optimizations of IRS transmissions, we propose a performance analysis on the total power in terms of the number of reflecting devices for IRS transmissions in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks. First, we derive an analytical expression of the total power gain factor in terms of the number of reflecting devices for the cell-edge user in IRS-NOMA systems. Then we evaluate how many reflecting devices we need to obtain a total power gain in dB. Moreover, we also demonstrate numerically the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gain of the IRS-NOMA system over the conventional NOMA system based on the achievable data rate.

We consider an overlaid broadcast service, where a spread spectrum (SS)-based broadcast signal is overlaid onto the existing terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (T-DMB) band. The system is similar to the augmented data transmission in the ATSC DTV, for which it was investigated mostly in terms of link level performance, such as bit error rate. Our focus in this paper is on the system-level performances. More specifically, utilizing both a large scale path loss and a small scale fading channel model, the primary objective is to explore the tradeoff between the coverage and the achievable rate of the overlaid service and, finally, to determine the achievable rate in the overlaid service for marginal coverage reduction in the existing broadcast service. The analytical and simulation results show that an SS-based add-on service of 10 kbps to 20 kbps can co-exist with the T-DMB service while resulting in only a marginal degradation in T-DMB coverage (for example, less than one percent reduction).

단말이 망에서 제공받는 데이터 전송율은 단말과 셀 사이의 SINR 뿐만 아니라 셀이 단말에게 할당하는 무선 자원양에 의해서도 결정된다. 따라서 단말이 SINR만을 기준으로 접속할 셀을 선택하면 비록 최대 SINR을 제공하는 셀에 접속한다고 하더라도 최대 서비스율을 제공받지 못할 수도 있다. 또한 네트워크의 입장에서는 SINR을 기준으로 접속 셀이 선택되므로 일부 셀들은 다수의 단말이 접속하는 반면 주변의 다른 셀들은 접속 단말의 수가 적게 되어 셀간 부하 불균형 상태가 발생될 확률이 커지고 이로 인해 이동 통신 시스템의 자원 이용율이 낮아지게 된다. 이에따라 본 논문에서는 SINR뿐만 아니라 셀의 부하를 고려한 접속 셀 선택 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 접속 셀 선택 지표로 SINR 대신에 최대 데이터 전송율과 최소 전송율 단절 확률을 제시한다. 제안 기법의 성능 평가를 위한 모의실험 결과 최대 데이터 전송율을 이용한 셀 선택 방법은 타 기법에 비해 시스템 효율과 셀간 부하 균등 측면에서 향상된 성능을 보였으며 최소 전송율 단절 확률을 이용한 셀 선택 방법은 타 기법에 비해 단말의 평균 전송율 단절 확률 측면에서 향상된 성능을 보였다.

차세대 이동통신시스템에서 RF 체인의 개수를 증가시키지 않으면서 달성 가능 데이터 전송률을 크게 증가시킬 수 있는 방법은 하이브리드 대용량 MIMO 기법을 사용하는 것이다. 최근에 하이브리드 프리코더에 대한 계산량을 줄이기 위하여 SIC 기반의 설계 방식이 제안되었다. 그러나 기저대역 프리코딩을 위해 단순히 대각 행렬을 사용함으로써 동시에 전송되는 스트림 간에 존재하는 간섭 문제를 해결할 수 없고, 아날로그 프리코딩을 위해서는 1개의 위상변환기를 사용함으로써 데이터 전송률 성능 향상에 한계가 있었다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 유효 채널에 대한 SVD 기반의 디지털 프리코딩을 적용하고 두 개의 위상 변환기를 사용하는 아날로그 프리코딩 방법을 제안한다. 모의실험을 통하여 제안하는 기법이 기존 기법보다 더 높은 달성 가능 데이터 전송률 성능과 SINR 성능을 갖는다는 것을 보인다.

In this paper, we investigate a buffer-aided wireless powered cooperative communication network (WPCCN), in which the source and relay harvest the energy from a dedicated power beacon via wireless energy transfer, then the source transmits the data to the destination through the relay. Both the source and relay are equipped with an energy buffer to store the harvested energy in the energy transfer stage. In addition, the relay is equipped with a data buffer and can temporarily store the received information. Considering the buffer-aided WPCCN, we propose two buffer-aided relaying protocols, which named as the buffer-aided harvest-then-transmit (HtT) protocol and the buffer-aided joint mode selection and power allocation (JMSPA) protocol, respectively. For the buffer-aided HtT protocol, the time-averaged achievable rate is obtained in closed form. For the buffer-aided JMSPA protocol, the optimal adaptive mode selection scheme and power allocation scheme, which jointly maximize the time-averaged throughput of system, are obtained by employing the Lyapunov optimization theory. Furthermore, we drive the theoretical bounds on the time-averaged achievable rate and time-averaged delay, then present the throughput-delay tradeoff achieved by the joint JMSPA protocol. Simulation results validate the throughput performance gain of the proposed buffer-aided relaying protocols and verify the theoretical analysis.

In this paper, we propose a new modulation scheme called multi-coded variable pulse position modulation (MC-VPPM) for visible light communication systems. Two groups of signals (Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) groups) are multi-coded by orthogonal codes for transmitting data simultaneously. Then, each multi-level value of the multi-coded signal is converted to pulse width and position which results in not only an improved data rate, but also a processing gain in reception. In addition, we introduce average duty ratio and cyclic shift concepts in PWM through which dimming control for light illumination can be supported without any degradation in communication performance. Through simulation, we confirm that the proposed MC-VPPM shows a comparable BER curve and much greater achievable data rate than the conventional VPPM scheme using a visible light optical channel environment.

In this paper, the authors propose the pseudo complex correlation coefficient (PCCC) of the two complex random variables (RV), because the four real correlation coefficients (RCC) of the corresponding four real RVs cannot be obtained only from the complex correlation coefficient (CCC) of given two complex RV. Such observation is motivated by the general statement; "The complex jointly-Gaussian random M-vector cannot be completely described by the complex covariance matrix, even though the real Gaussian random 2M-vector can be completely descried by the real covariance matrix. Therefore, in order to describe completely the complex jointly-Gaussian random M-vector, we need an additional matrix, namely the complex pseudo-covariance matrix, along with the complex covariance matrix." Then, we apply PCCC to correlated information sources (CIS) for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in 5G system, and investigate impact of the proposed PCCC on the achievable data rate of the stronger channel user in the conventional successive interference cancellation (SIC) NOMA with CIS. It is shown that for the given same CCC, the achievable data rates with the different PCCC are different, because the corresponding RCC are different. We also show that as the absolute value of the same CCC increases, the impact of the different PCCC becomes more significant.

Increasing demand for increasing higher data rate in order to solve computationally tasks timely and connecting many user equipment simultaneously have requested researchers to develop novel technology in the area of mobile communications. Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) have been enabling technologies for commercialization of the fifth generation (5G) networks and the sixth generation (6G) systems. In this paper, we investigate a bit-error rate (BER) analysis on IRS technologies for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems. First, we derive a BER expression for IRS-NOMA systems with Rician fading channels. Then, we validate the BER expression by Monte Carlo simulations, and show numerically that BER expressions are in good agreement with simulations. Moreover, we investigate the BER of IRS-NOMA systems with Rician fading channels for various numbers of IRS elements, and show that the BERs improve as the number of IRS elements increases.

The emerging smart utility networks (SUN) provide two-way communications between smart meters and smart appliances for purpose of low power usage, low cost, and high reliability. This paper deals with a bandwidth-efficient communication method based on the hidden pilot-aided scheme using a precoder in downlink SUN suitable for high-rate multimedia applications. With the aid of the design of a precoder and a superimposed hidden pilot, it is possible to estimate the channel without loss of bandwidth. In the channel estimation procedure, the inevitable data interference, which degrades the performance of channel estimation, can be reduced by the precoder design with an iterative scheme. Computer simulations show that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional method in terms of achievable data rate, especially when a large number of subcarriers are employed.
