This paper reports a cognitive radio network architecture based on overloaded multicarrier direct sequence code division multiple access (O-MC-DS-CDMA). The O-MC-DSCDMA technique combines CDMA with a multicarrier modulation technique to overcome the channel fading effects. In this technique, secondary users are enabled to share the available bandwidth with the existing primary users. Two sets of orthogonal Gold codes are used to support the primary and secondary users simultaneously. The orthogonality between the spreading codes is lost due to the non-zero cross correlation between the codes and the timing synchronization error in the uplink transmission, which causes interference between primary and secondary users. This paper proposes two modified hybrid parallel/successive interference cancellation techniques for primary and secondary user base station receivers with multiple antennas to suppress the interference among users. Interference among the same group of users is cancelled by parallel interference cancellation and the interference among groups is cancelled using successive interference cancellation. The simulation results confirmed that the proposed modified interference cancellation techniques show better BER performance over conventional interference cancellation techniques.

In order to increase the capacity and improve the spectrum efficiency of wireless communication systems, this paper proposes a rate-based two-sided many-to-one matching game algorithm for energy-harvesting small cells with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in heterogeneous cellular networks (HCN). First, we use a heuristic clustering based channel allocation algorithm to assign channels to small cells and manage the interference. Then, aiming at addressing the user access problem, this issue is modeled as a many-to-one matching game with the rate as its utility. Finally, considering externality in the matching game, we propose an algorithm that involves swap-matchings to find the optimal matching and to prove its stability. Simulation results show that this algorithm outperforms the comparing algorithm in efficiency and rate, in addition to improving the spectrum efficiency.

We propose a link adaptation and selection method for the links constituting an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based wireless relay network. The proposed link adaptation and selection method selects the forwarding, modulation, and channel coding schemes providing the highest end-to-end throughput and decides whether to use the relay or not. The link adaptation and selection is done for each sub-channel based on instantaneous signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) conditions in the source-to-destination, source-to-relay and relay-to-destination links. The considered forwarding schemes are amplify and forward (AF) and simple adaptive decode and forward (DF). Efficient adaptive modulation and coding decision rules are provided for various relaying schemes. The proposed end-to-end link adaptation and selection method ensures that the end-to-end throughput is always larger than or equal to that of transmissions without relay and non-adaptive relayed transmissions. Our evaluations show that over the region where relaying improves the end-to-end throughput, the DF scheme provides significant throughput gain over the AF scheme provided that the error propagation is avoided via error detection techniques. We provide a frame structure to enable the proposed link adaptation and selection method for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)-time division duplex relay networks based on the IEEE 802.16e standard.

In this paper, we propose an urgency- and efficiency-based wireless packet scheduling (UEPS) algorithm that is able to schedule real-time (RT) and non-real-time (NRT) traffics at the same time while supporting multiple users simultaneously at any given scheduling time instant. The UEPS algorithm is designed to support wireless downlink packet scheduling in an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) system, which is a strong candidate as a wireless access method for the next generation of wireless communications. The UEPS algorithm uses the time-utility function as a scheduling urgency factor and the relative status of the current channel to the average channel status as an efficiency indicator of radio resource usage. The design goal of the UEPS algorithm is to maximize throughput of NRT traffics while satisfying quality-of-service (QoS) requirements of RT traffics. The simulation study shows that the UEPS algorithm is able to give better throughput performance than existing wireless packet scheduling algorithms such as proportional fair (PF) and modified-largest weighted delay first (M-LWDF), while satisfying the QoS requirements of RT traffics such as average delay and packet loss rate under various traffic loads.

5G 시스템에서는, 통신 서비스가 4G 통신보다 더욱 더 빠른 망 연결을 요구한다. 최근, 선도적인 5G 기술들 중 하나로 비직교 다중접속이 주목받고 있다. 비직교 다중접속에서는 사용자들이 주파수와 시간을 공유하여, 더 많은 사용자들이 동시에 서비스를 받을 수가 있다. LTE와 같은 직교 다중접속과 비교하면, 비직교 다중접속은 더 큰 시스템 용량과 초저 지연과 같은 장점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 비직교 다중접속의 SIC에 채널 추정 오류가 미치는 영향을 고찰한다. 우선, 채널 추정 오류를 가지는 수신기의 폐쇄형 수식을 구한다. 그리고 채널 추정 오류의 BER를 완벽한 채널 추정의 BER과 비교한다, 또한, 채널 추정 오류로 발생하는 SNR 손실을 분석한다.

In this paper, we investigate how to do resource allocation to guarantee a minimum user data rate at low signaling overhead in multi-cell orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) wireless systems. We devise dynamic resource allocation (DRA) algorithms that can minimize the QoS violation ratio (i.e., the ratio of the number of users who fail to get the requested data rate to the total number of users in the overall network). We assume an OFDMA system that allows dynamic control of frequency reuse factor (FRF) of each sub-carrier. The proposed DRA algorithms determine the FRFs of the sub-carriers and allocate them to the users adaptively based on inter-cell interference and load distribution. In order to reduce the signaling overhead, we adopt a hierarchical resource allocation architecture which divides the resource allocation decision into the inter-cell coordinator (ICC) and the base station (BS) levels. We limit the information available at the ICC only to the load of each cell, that is, the total number of sub-carriers required for supporting the data rate requirement of all the users. We then present the DRA with limited coordination (DRA-LC) algorithm where the ICC performs load-adaptive inter-cell resource allocation with the limited information while the BS performs intra-cell resource allocation with full information about its own cell. For performance comparison, we design a centralized algorithm called DRA with full coordination (DRA-FC). Simulation results reveal that the DRA-LC algorithm can perform close to the DRA-FC algorithm at very low signaling overhead. In addition, it turns out to improve the QoS performance of the cell-boundary users, and achieve a better fairness among neighboring cells under non-uniform load distribution.

This paper proposes a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) based low-complexity relaying approach for multiuser cellular two-way relay channels (CTWRCs). In the proposed scheme, the relay detects the signal using successive interference cancellation (SIC) and re-generates the transmit signal with zero-forcing (ZF) transmit precoding. The achievable data rates of the NOMA-based multiuser two-way relaying (TWR) approach is analyzed. We further study the power allocation among different data streams to maximize the weighted sum-rate (WSR). We re-form the resultant non-convex problem into a standard monotonic program. Then, we design a polyblock outer approximation algorithm to sovle the WSR problem.The proposed optimal power allocation algorithm converges fast and it is shown that the NOMA-TWR-OPA scheme outperforms a NOMA benchmark scheme and conventional TWR schemes.

본 논문에서는 5G 무선 통신을위한 다중 셀 다중 입력 다중 출력 (MIMO)-비 직교 다중 접속 (NOMA) 다운 링크 시스템에서 WSRM (weighted sum-rate maximization) 문제를 해결하기위한 견고한 빔 형성 설계를 제시한다. 이 연구는 채널 추정 행렬에 최악의 모델, 즉 SVOF (singular value uncertainty model)로서 불확실성을 추가함으로써 기지국 (BS)에서 불완전한 채널 상태 정보 (CSI)를 고려한다. 이러한 관찰을 통해, WSRM 문제는 BS에서의 전송 전력 제약에 따라 공식화된다. 객관적 문제는 해결하기 어려운 비 결정적 다항식 (NP) 문제로 알려져 있다. 객관적 문제를 효율적으로 해결할뿐만 아니라 최적의 송신 빔 포밍 행렬을 찾기 위해 ML (majorization minimization) 기법을 안정화시킨 견고한 빔 형성 설계를 제안한다. 또한 최상의 사용자 쌍을 클러스터로 선택하여 더 높은 합계를 달성하는 공동 사용자 클러스터링 및 전력 할당 (JUCPA) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안 된 JUCPA 알고리즘과 함께 제안된 견고한 빔 포밍 설계가 기존의 NOMA 기법 및 기존의 OMA (orthogonal multiple access) 기법과 비교하여 총 레이트 측면에서 성능을 크게 향상 시킨다는 것을 보여주기 위해 광범위한 수치 결과가 제공된다.

최근 상관 중첩 코딩으로 SIC를 사용하지 않고 무손실 이중 사용자 비직교 다중 접속이 구현될 수 있다고 보고된 바 있다. 그러나 단지 이중 사용자 사례만 고려되었다. 따라서 본 논문은 삼중 사용자 무손실 non-SIC 비직교 다중 접속 기법을 제안한다. 이러한 제안은 삼중 사용자 상관 중첩 코딩을 통하여 달성된다. 모의실험을 통해 삼중 사용자 무손실 non-SIC 비직교 다중 접속 기법이 사용자-공평성에 해당하는 전력 할당 영역에서 구현될 수 있음을 입증한다.
