Traditional channel models for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication usually assume fixed velocity in static scattering environment. In the realistic scenarios, however, time-variant velocity for V2V results in non-stationary statistical properties of wireless channels. Dynamic scatterers with random velocities and directions have been always utilized to depict the non-stationary statistical properties of the channel. In this paper, a non-stationary geometry-based cooperative scattering channel model is proposed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) V2V communication systems, where a birth-death process is used to capture the appearance and disappearance dynamic properties of moving scatterers that reflect the time-variant time correlation and Doppler spectrum characteristics. Moreover, our model has more straight and concise to study the impact of the vehicular traffic density on channel characteristics and thus avoid complicated procedure in deriving the analytical expressions of the channel parameters and functions. The numerical results validate our analysis and demonstrate that setting important parameters of our model can appropriately build up more purposeful measurement campaigns in the future.

In multi-hop communication systems, two-way relaying is one of the solutions to mitigate the spectral efficiency loss caused by a half-duplex transmission. In this paper, a simple two-way relaying scheme is proposed for two-hop two-user multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems. In the proposed system, a base station and a relay station (RS), both equipped with two antennas, form a point-to-point MIMO channel, while the RS and two single-antenna mobile users form a point-to-multipoint multiuser (MU)-MIMO channel. Numerical examples show that the proposed system achieves a significant sum rate gain as compared to a one-way relaying system as the distance between a relay and the two users decreases. We also show that although we can expand the proposed scheme to more than two users, its performance gain as compared to that of one-way relaying decreases with an increase in the number of users.

In this paper, we investigate an individual channel estimation problem for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) two-way amplify-and-forward (AF) relay networks. To avoid self-interference during the estimation of the individual MIMO channels, a novel blind interference cancellation (BIC) approach is proposed based on an orthogonal preceding framework, where a pair of orthogonal precoding matrices is utilized at the source nodes. By designing an optimal decoding scheme, we propose to decompose the bidirectional transmission into a pair of unidirectional transmissions. Unlike most existing approaches, we make the practical assumption that the nonreciprocal MIMO channel and the mutual interference of multiple antennas are both taken into consideration. Under the precoding framework, we employ an orthogonal superimposed training strategy to obtain the individual MIMO channels. However, the AF strategy causes the noise at the terminal to be the sum of the local noise and the relay-propagated noise. To remove the relay-propagated noise during the estimation of the second-hop channel, a partial noise-nulling method is designed. We also derive a closed-form expression for the total mean square error (MSE) of the MIMO channel from which we compute the optimal power allocation. The simulation results demonstrate that the analytical and simulated curves match fully.

이 논문은 옥내와 옥외에 걸친 무선 통신 환경에서 통신 성능을 향상시키는 기술에 관한 것이다. 옥외 무선 통신에서 신호 감쇠는 주로 채널의 페이딩 특성으로 발생되는데, 기존의 다중 안테나 방식과 배열 신호처리 알고리즘을 적용하면 이 문제를 해결할 수 있다. 그러나, 옥내 및 옥외 무선 채널을 가진 통신인 경우, 채널 특성은 페이딩과 각도 퍼짐 특성 모두에 영향을 받으므로, 일반적인 방식으로 채널의 각도 퍼짐 특성을 극복할 수 없다. 이를 해결하기 위해 이 논문에서는 옥내와 옥외에 걸친 채널 특성을 분석하고, 각각에 적합한 채널 모형을 생각한다. 또한, 옥내외 채널의 각도 퍼짐 특성을 극복하고 옥내외 통신 성능을 향상하기 위해, 새로운 평균주사 벡터 개념을 사용한 배열 안테나 처리 알고리즘을 제안하고 성능 분석을 수행한다. 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 통한 성능 분석으로 옥내 전송 신호를 옥외 환경에서 다중 안테나로 수신하는 경우, 기존 방식보다 제안된 방식이 좋은 신호대 간섭 잡음비 특성을 가짐을 보인다.

방송 기반의 데이터 전파는 모바일 컴퓨팅 환경에서 보편적으로 받아들여지는 통신 방식이다. 그러나 많은 데이터를 방송해야 할 경우에 방송 채널의 순차성으로 인하여 원하는 데이터를 수신하기까지의 예상 지연시간이 증가한다. 이 대기시간을 줄이기 위하여 본 논문은 다중 채널을 통하여 데이터를 방송하는 문제를 연구한다. 기존의 기법들은 각 채널의 평형 방송을 가정하고 데이터들을 액세스 확률에 근거하여 분할하고 다중 채널에 할당한다. 만일 동일 채널에 할당된 데이터들도 그들의 액세스 확률에 근거하여 방송빈도를 다르게 한다면 성능은 더 향상될 것이다. 이와 같은 관점에서 본 논문은 동일 채널에 할당된 데이터들의 액세스 확률의 차이를 방송 스케줄에 반영할 수 있는 두 단계 동적프로그래밍 기법으로 명명된 새로운 방송 스케줄링 기법을 제안한다.

This work investigates the progressive linear precoder design for packet retransmissions in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems with multiple codewords and automatic repeat request (ARQ) bundling feedback. Assuming perfect channel state information, a novel progressive linear ARQ precoder is proposed in the perspective of minimizing the packet error rate. We devise the ARQ precoder by combining power loading and sub channel pairing between current retransmission and previous transmissions. Furthermore, we extend the design to the case that the channel estimation error exists. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme can improve the performance of MIMO ARQ systems significantly regardless of the channel estimation error.

According to information theory, non-orthogonal transmission can achieve the multiple-user channel capacity with an onion-peeling like successive interference cancellation (SIC) based detection followed by a capacity approaching channel code. However, in multiple antenna system, due to the unideal characteristic of the SIC detector, the residual interference propagated to the next detection stage will significantly degrade the detection performance of spatial data layers. To overcome this problem, we proposed a modified power-domain non-orthogonal multiple access (P-NOMA) scheme joint designed with space-time coding for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) NOMA system. First, with proper power allocation for each user, inter-user signals can be separated from each other for NOMA detection. Second, a well-designed quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (QO-STBC) was employed to facilitate the SIC-based MIMO detection of spatial data layers within each user. Last, we proposed an optimization algorithm to assign channel coding rates to balance the bit error rate (BER) performance of those spatial data layers for each user. Link-level performance simulation results demonstrate that the proposed time-space-power domain joint transmission scheme performs better than the traditional P-NOMA scheme. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is of low complexity and easy to implement.

Visible light communication (VLC) systems incorporate ambient lighting and wireless data transmission, and the experienced channel in indoor VLC is a major topic that should be examined for reliable communication. In this study, it is realized that multiple transmitters in classical alignment are the forceful factors for channel characteristics. In the frequency band, fluctuations with sudden drops are observed, where the fluctuation shape is related to the source layout and receiver location. These varying frequency-selective channels need solutions, especially for mobile users, because sustained channel estimation and equalization are necessary as the receiver changes its location. It is proven that using light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with highly directional beams as sources or using a detector with a narrow field of view (FOV) in the receiver may help partially alleviate the problem; the frequency selectivity of the channel reduces in some regions of the room. For flat fading channel characteristics all over the room, LEDs should be aligned in hexagonal cellular structure, and detector FOV should be arranged according to the cell dimension outcomes.
