최근 폭발적으로 증가하고 있는 모바일 데이터 트래픽를 효과적으로 서비스하기 위한 기술 중의 하나로 다중 사용자 거대 다중 안테나 네트워크가 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 그러나, 다중 사용자 거대 다중 안테나 네트워크는 기지국에 복잡한 하드웨어 구성이 필요할 뿐만 아니라 최적의 사용자 조합을 선택하기 위하여 많은 계산량을 유발한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 하드웨어 복잡도와 사용자 선택 알고리즘의 계산량을 동시에 획기적으로 감소시킬 수 있는 안테나와 사용자 선택 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방식은 $O((N-S_a+1){\times}min(S_a,K))$의 계산 복잡도를 가지며, 이는 Brute-Force 탐색 기반의 최적 방식의 계산 복잡도 $$O\left({_N}C_S_a\sum_{i=1}^{min(S_a,K)}_KC_i\right)$$보다 획기적으로 감소된 것이다. 여기서 N은 모든 전송안테나의 수, $S_a$은 선택된 안테나 수, K는 사용자의 수를 나타낸다.

We present a low-density parity-check (LDPC)-based, threaded layered space-time-frequency system with emphasis on the iterative receiver design. First, the unbiased minimum mean-squared-error iterative-tree-search (U-MMSE-ITS) detector, which is known to be one of the most efficient multi-input multi-output (MIMO) detectors available, is improved by augmentation of the partial-length paths and by the addition of one-bit complement sequences. Compared with the U-MMSE-ITS detector, the improved detector provides better detection performance with lower complexity. Furthermore, the improved detector is robust to arbitrary MIMO channels and to any antenna configurations. Second, based on the structure of the iterative receiver, we present a low-complexity belief-propagation (BP) decoding algorithm for LDPC-codes. This BP decoder not only has low computing complexity but also converges very fast (5 iterations is sufficient). With the efficient receiver employing the improved detector and the low-complexity BP decoder, the proposed system is a promising solution to high-data-rate transmission over selective-fading channels.

A resource allocation algorithm is proposed in this paper to simultaneously minimize the total system power consumption and maximize the system throughput for the downlink of multi-user multiple input multiple output-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. With the Lagrange dual decomposition method, we transform the original problem to its convex dual problem and prove that the duality gap between the two problems is zero, which means the optimal solution of the original problem can be obtained by solving its dual problem. Then, we use convex optimization method to solve the dual problem and utilize bisection method to obtain the optimal dual variable. The numerical results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to traditional single-objective optimization method in both the system throughput and the system energy consumption.

Interference alignment (IA) has been a powerful approach to achieve the maximum degree of freedom (DoF) for K users multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) interference channels. However, due to the feasibility constraint, aligning all the interference signals at each receiver is impractical for large K without symbol extension. In this paper, we propose two best-effort interference alignment (BEIA) schemes that the network selects the maximum number of interfering transmitters to align their signals given the feasibility conditions when each transmitter-receiver pair has a constant number of data streams. Besides, in case of not all interfering signals aligned at each receiver, an upper bound of the average throughput is derived. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes have superiority over the traditional methods, such as time division multiple access (TDMA) and cluster IA(CIA), in low and moderate signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region in terms of average user throughput. In addition, the proposed max-min relative interference distance alignment scheme outperforms the proposed scheme of equal interfering transmitters number alignment in terms of both average user throughput and minimum user throughput.

A water wall system is one of the most important components of a boiler in a thermal power plant, and it is a nonlinear Multi-Input and Multi-Output (MIMO) system, with 6 inputs and 3 outputs. Three models are developed and comp for the controller design, including a linear model, a multilayer feed-forward neural network (MFNN) model and an Echo State Network (ESN) model. First, the linear model is developed by linearizing a given nonlinear model and is analyzed as a function of the operating point. Second, the MFNN and the ESN are developed by using training data from the nonlinear model. The three models are validated using Matlab with nonlinear input-output data that was not used during training.

In this paper, we consider coded layered space-time architecture in MIMO-OFDM channels. Vertical Bell Lab Layered Space-Time(V-BLAST) scheme employing ordered successive interference cancellation(OSIC) algorithm provides very high spectral efficiency with low computational complexity. However, the error propagation is a major drawback constraining the overall performance of the V-BLAST system significantly. Based on this problem, we derive an improved detector using soft bit log-likelihood ratio(LLR) value. Simulation results show that the proposed detector outperforms the conventional V-BLAST scheme under spatially uncorrelated as well as correlated fading channels.

The phenomena of higher channel cross polarization discrimination (XPD) is mainly observed for future wireless technologies such as small cell network and massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. Therefore, utilization of high XPD is very important and space-polarization division multiple access (SPDMA) with dual-polarized MIMO system could be a suitable solution to high-speed transmission in high XPD environment as well as reduction of array size at base station (BS). By SPDMA with dual-polarized MIMO system, two parallel data signals can be transmitted by both vertically and horizontally polarized antennas to serve different mobile stations (MSs) simultaneously compare to conventional space division multiple access (SDMA) with single-polarized MIMO system. This paper analyzes the performance of SPDMA for maximum ratio transmission (MRT) in time division duplexing (TDD) system by proposed dual-polarized MIMO spatial channel model (SCM) compare to conventional SDMA. Simulation results indicate that how SPDMA utilizes the high XPD as the number of MS increases and SPDMA performs very close to conventional SDMA for same number of antenna elements but half size of the array at BS.

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.

A wide-band multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with dual-band (2.4 and 5 GHz) operation is proposed for premium indoor access points (IAPs). Typically, an omni-directional pattern is used for dipole antennas and a directional radiation pattern is used for patch antennas. In this paper, both antenna types were used to compare their performance with that of the proposed $2{\times}2$ MIMO antenna. We simulated and measured the performance of the MIMO antenna, including the isolation, envelope correlation coefficient (ECC), mean effective gain (MEG) for the IAPs, and the throughput, in order to determine its communication quality. The performance of the antennas was analyzed according to the ECC and MEG. The proposed antenna has sufficient performance and excellent characteristics, making it suitable for IAPs. We analyzed the communication performance of wireless networks using the throughput data of a typical office environment. The network throughput of an 802.11n device was used for the comparison and was conducted according to the antenna type. The results showed that the values of the ECC, MEG, and the throughput have unique characteristics in terms of their directivity, antenna gains, isolation, etc. This paper also discusses the communication performance of various aspects of MIMO in multipath situations.

본 논문에서는 레일리 페이딩 채널에서 다중접속 간섭의 제거와 시스템 채널 용량의 증가를 위해 MIMO-MC/CDMA 16QAM 시스템의 모바일 액세스 계층에 대한 성능을 평가하였다. 전통적으로 무선통신에서 다중경로는 불필요한 요소로 여겨졌다. 따라서 다이버시티와 적응 어레이 방식이 다중경로를 제거하기 위하여 제안되었다. 최근에는 스펙트럼 효율과 링크의 신뢰도를 증가하기 위하여 다중경로를 이용하는 MIMO방식이 제안되었다. 특히, MIMO-MC/CDMA 16QAM 시스템의 채널 용량이 Eb/No, Mc, p에 따라서 평가되었다. 결과로부터 채널용량을 개선하기 위해서는 신호의 요소들은 서로 무상관이어야 하며 만약 부적당한 공간과 상호 결합 효과에 의하여 경로사이가 상관이 이루어지면 MIMO-MC/CDMA 16 QAM시스템의 채널 용량은 상당히 감소하게 된다.
