    Filter structure for iterative signal processing2002Patent (Other (popular science, discussion, etc.))
    Abstract [en]

    The invention is an iterative signal processing arrangement having one or more pairs of first and second signal processing components. These pairs are in iterative configuration with each of the first signal processing components having as its input one or more received signals dependent upon one or more transmitted signals. For each said signal processing component pair the output of said first signal processing component is an estimate of a characteristic of a selected transmitted signal based on the current and one or more previous input signals received by said first signal processing component. This estimate is input to said corresponding second signal processing component which provides a further estimate of said selected transmitted signal. The outputs of all said second components of respective pairs are input to their corresponding first components in a succeeding iteration cycle.

    Design of Multi-Edge-Type Bilayer-Expurgated LDPC Codes for Decode-and-Forward in Relay Channels2011In: IEEE Transactions on Communications, ISSN 0090-6778, E-ISSN 1558-0857, Vol. 59, no 11, p. 2993-3006Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We consider the design of bilayer-expurgated low-density parity-check (BE-LDPC) codes as part of a decode-and-forward protocol for use over the full-duplex relay channel. A new ensemble of codes, termed multi-edge-type bilayer-expurgated LDPC (MET-BE-LDPC) codes, is introduced where the BE-LDPC code design problem is transformed into the problem of optimizing the multinomials of a multi-edge-type LDPC code. We propose two design strategies for optimizing MET-BE-LDPC codes; the bilayer approach is preferred when the difference in SNR between the source-to-relay and the source-to-destination channels is small, while the bilayer approach with intermediate rates is preferred when this difference is large. In both proposed design strategies multi-edge-type density evolution is used for code optimization. The resulting MET-BE-LDPC codes exhibit improved threshold and bit-error-rate performance as compared to previously reported bilayer LDPC codes.

    A general structure for rate-compatible concatenated codes2007In: IEEE Communications Letters, ISSN 1089-7798, E-ISSN 1558-2558, Vol. 11, no 5, p. 437-439Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this letter, a general concatenated code structure is presented, encompassing both parallel and serially concatenated codes as special cases. The structure provides a unifying framework for the analysis of concatenated codes and offers new degrees of freedom for code design. Performance analysis based on error bounds in the error floor region and suggestions for suitable design criteria are provided, together with a design approach for the waterfall region. The proposed structure allows for constructing very high-rate codes with no penalty in the error floor region and good performance in the waterfall region.

    Classification of 8PSK mappings for BICM2007In: IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory, 2007, p. 2136-2140Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [nb]

    The performance of bit-interleaved coded modulation with iterative decoding is significantly influenced by the mapping of bits to the symbol constellation. A range of mappers have been suggested in the literature, however, no attempt has been made to systematically enumerate all unique mappers for a given signal constellation. In this paper, we classify 8PSK mappers based on bit-wise distance spectra for no prior information, and full prior information, respectively.

    Classification of Unique Mappings for 8PSK Based on Bit-Wise Distance Spectra2009In: IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, ISSN 0018-9448, E-ISSN 1557-9654, Vol. 55, no 3, p. 1131-1145Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The performance of bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) with (or without) iterative decoding (ID) is significantly influenced by the mapping of bits to the symbol constellation. Our main objective in this paper is to develop a systematic design approach for BICM-ID schemes, ensuring the best possible performance with iterative decoding. Although useful mappings for BICM-ID have been found based on various search strategies, no attempt has been made to systematically enumerate and classify all unique mappers for a given constellation. As the basis for a systematic enumeration and classification, we define the average bit-wise distance spectrum for a mapping from bits to symbols. Different bit-wise distance spectra are derived assuming no prior information or full prior information, respectively. The bit-wise distance spectra determine correspondingbit-wise error probability and bit-wise mutual information. The latter allows us to use theclassification of mappings with unique bit-wise distance spectra to also classifymappings with unique extremal points in the corresponding extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) curves. As an example of our approach, we classify 8PSK mappings into 86 classes of unique mappings according to bit-wise distance spectra. The classificationcan be used to significantly reduce the complexity of the search for suitable mappers for BICM-ID. For 8PSK and a given encoder, only 86 different mappings need to be investigated. As examples of the systematic design approach, the best 8PSK mappingsfor minimizing the convergence threshold are found for concatenation with the rate 1/2 (5, 7)8 and (133,1718 convolutional codes, and the rate 1/2 UMTS turbo code with identical constituent convolutional codes (15/13)8.

    Multiple parallel concatenated codes with optimal puncturing and energy distribution2005In: IEEE International Conference on Communications, 2005, p. 622-626Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper we show how to find optimal energy distribution together with optimalpuncturing ratios for parallel concatenated codes with two or more constituent codes. The energy distribution and the puncturing ratios are optimal in terms of minimizing the average signal-to-noise ratio convergence threshold. The extrinsic information transfer functions of the constituent codes are used for the optimization. Using this technique we obtain additional degrees of freedom for constructing codes with low convergence thresholds over a large range of code rates.

    Non-data-aided parameter estimation in an additive white Gaussian noise channel2005In: IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory: Proceedings, 2005, p. 1446-1450Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Non-data-aided (NDA) parameter estimation is considered for binary-phase-shift-keying transmission in an additive white Gaussian noise channel. Cramér-Rao lower bounds (CRLBs) for signal amplitude, noise standard deviation, channel reliability constant and bit-error rate are derived and it is shown how these parameters relate to the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). An alternative derivation of the iterative maximum likelihood (ML) SNR estimator is presented together with a novel, low complexity NDA SNR estimator. The performance of the proposed estimator is compared to previously suggested estimators and the CRLB. The results show that the proposed estimator performs close to the iterative ML estimator at significantly lower computational complexity.

    Convergence analysis and optimal scheduling for multiple concatenated codes2005In: IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, ISSN 0018-9448, E-ISSN 1557-9654, Vol. 51, no 9, p. 3354-3364Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    An interesting practical consideration for decoding of serial or parallel concatenated codes with more than two components is the determination of the lowest complexity component decoder schedule which results in convergence. This correspondence presents an algorithm that finds such an optimal decoder schedule. A technique is also given for combining and projecting a series of three-dimensional extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) functions onto a single two-dimensional EXIT chart. This is a useful technique for visualizing the convergence threshold for multiple concatenated codes and provides a design tool for concatenated codes with more than two components.

    Optimal puncturing for multiple parallel concatenated codes2004In: IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory: Proceedings, 2004, p. 154-Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Optimal puncturing ratios for parallel concatenated codes with two or more constituentcodes are found using extrinsic information transfer functions. These ratios minimise the signal-to-noise ratio convergence threshold and provide additional degrees of freedom for constructing codes with low thresholds over a wide range of code rates.

    Optimal Puncturing Ratios and Energy Allocation for Multiple Parallel Concatenated Codes2009In: IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, ISSN 0018-9448, E-ISSN 1557-9654, Vol. 55, no 5, p. 2062-2077Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We propose a systematic design framework for optimal, low-complexity punctured multiple parallel concatenated codes (MPCCs), based on minimizing the convergence threshold using extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) charts. As the convergence threshold is related to the area between the two EXIT curves, the corresponding optimization problem is equivalent to a curve-fitting problem. The EXIT curves are determined by the respective EXIT functions of the constituents, which can be conveniently shaped through the use of random puncturing and unequal energy allocations across parallel coding streams. The design task is therefore to find the optimal combination of constituents, puncturing ratios, and energy allocation for matching the EXIT curves. A search over all rate-one convolutional codes of memory length four or less is performed, identifying 98 classes of codes with unique EXIT functions out of a total of 310 codes. Low-complexity MPCCs with up to four constituents are found, where the convergence thresholds are observed to be within 0.1 dB or less of the fundamental minimum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) corresponding to the binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) capacity for code rates 1/3 ≤ R < 7/8. Further allowing for unequal energy allocation, the convergence thresholds for lower code rates are similarly improved.

    SEK: Sparsity exploiting k-mer-based estimation of bacterial community composition2014In: Bioinformatics, ISSN 1460-2059, Vol. 30, no 17, p. 2423-2431Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Motivation: Estimation of bacterial community composition from a high-throughput sequenced sample is an important task in metagenomics applications. As the sample sequence data typically harbors reads of variable lengths and different levels of biological and technical noise, accurate statistical analysis of such data is challenging. Currently popular estimation methods are typically time-consuming in a desktop computing environment.

    Results: Using sparsity enforcing methods from the general sparse signal processing field (such as compressed sensing), we derive a solution to the community composition estimation problem by a simultaneous assignment of all sample reads to a pre-processed reference database. A general statistical model based on kernel density estimation techniques is introduced for the assignment task, and the model solution is obtained using convex optimization tools. Further, we design a greedy algorithm solution for a fast solution. Our approach offers a reasonably fast community composition estimation method, which is shown to be more robust to input data variation than a recently introduced related method.

    Availability and implementation: A platform-independent Matlab implementation of the method is freely available at http://www.ee.kth.se/ctsoftware; source code that does not require access to Matlab is currently being tested and will be made available later through the above Web site.

    Optimal rate-diversity-delay tradeoff in ARQ block-fading channels2006In: Proceedings of 2006 IEEE Information Theory Workshop / [ed] Fan, PZ; Li, P; Yeung, R, 2006, p. 507-511Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    We consider coded modulation schemes for the automatic-repeat-request (ARQ) block-fading channel. We show that the optimal SNR exponents of these schemes are given by a modified form of the Singleton bound that includes the effects of code rate and maximum ARQ delay. The role of maximum distance separable (MDS) codes over the ARQ block-fading channel is investigated and simulation results are presented, demonstrating that practical MDS codes achieve the optimal SNR exponent dictated by the Singleton bound.

    Optimal throughput-diversity-delay tradeoff in MIMO ARQ block-fading channels2008In: IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, ISSN 0018-9448, E-ISSN 1557-9654, Vol. 54, no 9, p. 3968-3986Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper, we consider an automatic-repeat-request (ARQ) retransmission protocol signaling over a block-fading multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) channel. Unlike previous work, we allow for multiple fading blocks within each transmission (ARQ round), and we constrain the transmitter to fixed rate codes constructed over complex signal constellations. In particular, we examine the general case of average input-power-constrained constellations with a fixed signaling alphabet of finite cardinality. This scenario is a suitable model for practical wireless communications systems employing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) techniques over a MIMO ARQ channel. Two cases of fading dynamics are considered, namely, short-term static fading wherechannel fading gains change randomly for each ARQ round, and long-term static fadingwhere channel fading gains remain constant over all ARQ rounds pertaining to a given message. As our main result, we prove that for the block-fading MIMO ARQ channel with a fixed signaling alphabet satisfying a short-term power constraint, the optimal signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) exponent is given by a modified Singleton bound, relating all the system parameters. To demonstrate the practical significance of the theoretical analysis, we present numerical results showing that practical Singleton-bound-achieving maximum distance separable codes achieve the optimal SNR exponent.

    A Proposal for Wireless Control of Submodules in Modular Multilevel Converters2018Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The modular multilevel converter is one of the most preferred converters for high-power conversion applications. Wireless control of the submodules can contribute to its evolution by lowering the material and labor costs of cabling and by increasing the availability of the converter. However, wireless control leads to many challenges for the control and modulation of the converter as well as for proper low-latency high-reliability communication. This paper investigates the tolerable asynchronism between phase-shifted carriers used in modulation from a wireless control point of view and proposes a control method along with communication protocol for wireless control. The functionality of the proposed method is validated by computer simulations in steady state.

    Optimality of LDGM-LDPC compound codes for lossy compression of binary erasure source2010In: 2010 20th International Symposium on Information Theory and Its Applications, ISITA 2010 and the 2010 20th International Symposium on Spread Spectrum Techniques and Applications, ISSSTA 2010, 2010, p. 589-594Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We consider the Binary Erasure Source (BES) introduced by Martinian and Yedidia. Based on the technique introduced by Martinian and Wainwright, we upper bound the rate-distortion performance of the check regular Poisson LDGM ensemble and the compound LDGM-LDPC ensemble for the BES. We also show that there exist compound LDGM-LDPC codes, with degrees independent of the block-length, which can achieve any given point on the Shannon rate-distortion curve of the BES.

    Rate distortion bounds for binary erasure source using sparse graph codes2010In: Data Compression Conference, DCC 2010, 2010, p. 49-58Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We consider lower bounds on the rate-distortion performance for the binary erasure source (BES) introduced by Martinian and Yedidia, using sparse graph codes for compression. Our approach follows that of Kudekar and Urbanke, where lower bounds on the rate distortion performance of low-density generator matrix (LDGM) codes for the binary symmetric source (BSS) are derived. They introduced two methods for deriving lower bounds, namely the counting method and the test channel method. Based on numerical results they observed that the two methods lead to the same bound. We generalize these two methods for the BES and prove that indeed both methods lead to identical rate-distortion bounds for the BES and hence, also for the BSS.

    Anytime reliability of systematic LDPC convolutional codes2012In: Communications (ICC), 2012 IEEE International Conference on, IEEE , 2012, p. 2171-2175Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We propose a LDPC Convolutional Code ensemble together with an expanding-window message-passing decoder that asymptotically have anytime properties when used for streaming transmission on the binary erasure channel. We show analytically that the decoding erasure probability of these codes decays exponentially over decoding delay and determine the corresponding anytime exponents.

    Secure Broadcasting in Cooperative Cognitive Radio Networks2012In: 2012 Future Network and Mobile Summit, FutureNetw 2012, IIMC , 2012Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper explores the trade-off between cooperation and secrecy in cognitive radio networks. We consider a scenario consisting of a primary and a secondary system. In the simplest case, each system is represented by a pair of transmitter and receiver. We assume a secrecy constraint on the transmission in the sense that the message of the primary transmitter has to be concealed from the secondary user. Both situations where the secondary transmitter is aware and unaware of the primary message are investigated and compared. Furthermore, we extend our results to the scenario where the secondary system comprises multiple users. For each case we sketch the derivation of the rates that are achievable from an information theoretic perspective. We then investigate the findings by numerical simulations. Our main result is that, in spite of the secrecy constraint, cooperation is beneficial in terms of the achievable rates. The secondary transmitter has the two contradicting tasks of helping the primary system and transmitting its own message. Our results show that both tasks can be accomplished simultaneously, improving both systems' performance. In particular, the secondary system can achieve a significant rate without decreasing the primary rate below the benchmark rate achievable without the help of the secondary transmitter. In the case of multiple secondary users, the rate region reduces, which results in a lower individual rate. However, the linear increase in sumrate counterbalances this effect.

    On the Optimization of the Secondary Transmitter's Strategy in Cognitive Radio Channels with Secrecy2014In: IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, ISSN 0733-8716, E-ISSN 1558-0008, Vol. 32, no 3, p. 451-463Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper investigates cooperation for secrecy in cognitive radio networks. In particular, we consider a four-node cognitive scenario where the secondary receiver is treated as a potential eavesdropper with respect to the primary transmission. The cognitive transmitter can help the primary transmission, and it should also ensure that the primary message is not leaked to the secondary user. We consider two cognitive scenarios depending on whether the secondary transmitter knows the primary message or not. In the first case, the secondary transmitter is unaware of the primary transmitter's message and acts as a helping interferer to enhance the secrecy of the primary transmission, whereas in the second case, relaying of the primary message is also within its capabilities. First, we find achievable rate regions for these two scenarios in the case of AWGN channels. We then investigate three different optimization problems: the maximization of the primary rate, the maximization of the secondary rate and the minimization of the secondary transmit power. For these optimization problems, we find closed-form expressions in important special cases. Furthermore, we analyze the cooperation between the primary and secondary transmitters from a game-theoretic perspective. We model their interaction as a Stackelberg game, for which we define and find the Stackelberg equilibrium. Finally, we use numerical examples to illustrate the rate regions, the three optimizations, and the impact of the Stackelberg game on the achievable rates and on the transmission strategies of the secondary transmitter.

    This paper explores the trade-off between cooperation and secrecy in cognitive radio networks. We consider a scenario consisting of a primary and a secondary system. In the simplest case, each system is represented by a pair of transmitter and receiver. We assume a secrecy constraint on the transmission in the sense that the message of the primary transmitter has to be concealed from the secondary receiver. Both situations where the secondary transmitter is aware and unaware of the primary message are investigated and compared. In the first case, the secondary transmitter helps by allocating power for jamming, which increases the secrecy of the first message. In the latter case, it can also act as a relay for the primary message, thus improving the reliability of the primary transmission. Furthermore, we extend our results to the scenario where the secondary system comprises multiple receivers. For each case we present achievable rate regions. We then provide numerical illustrations for these rate regions. Our main result is that, in spite of the secrecy constraint, cooperation is beneficial in terms of the achievable rates. In particular, the secondary system can achieve a significant rate without decreasing the primary rate below the benchmark rate achievable without the help of the secondary transmitter. Finally, we investigate the influence of the distances between users on the system's performance.

    On the asymptotic sum rate of downlink cellular systems with random user locations2015In: IEEE Wireless Communications Letters, ISSN 2162-2337, E-ISSN 2162-2345, Vol. 4, no 3, p. 333-336, article id 7065231Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We consider a downlink cellular communication system with a multi-antenna base station (BS). A regularized zero forcing precoder is employed at the BS to manage the inter-user interference within the cell. Using methods from random matrix theory, we derive a deterministic approximation for the achievable ergodic sum rate, taking into account the randomness from both fading and random user locations. The obtained approximation describes well the behavior of finite-sized systems and enables efficient optimization of the precoder matrix.

    Abstract [en]

    Wireless security has become an important issue for modern wireless networks. Due to the broadcast nature of wireless channels possibility of eavesdropping the transmission is provided for non-legitimate receivers. In the present paper, we consider a multi-antenna wiretap channel in a fast-fading environment with only statistical channel state information available at the receiver. The overall performance of such channel is characterized by the ergodic secrecy capacity, which, in general, cannot be characterized explicitly. Nevertheless, based on the assumption that the numbers of antennas at legitimate terminals and the number of eavesdroppers grow large without bound, we derive a deterministic approximation for the achievable ergodic secrecy rate under arbitrary channel inputs. The obtained large-system approximation matches well with the actual simulated secrecy rates, revealing some interesting behavior of the secrecy rates in the given scenario.

    Abstract [en]

    Security issues in wireless networks have become a subject of growing interest in recent years due to the broadcast nature of wireless channels. In this paper, we investigate secure communication over a multi-antenna wiretap channel in the presence of randomly distributed eavesdroppers. In the fast fading environment, the overall performance of this channel is traditionally characterized by the ergodic secrecy capacity, which, in general, cannot be derived explicitly. Nevertheless, based on the assumption that the numbers of antennas at legitimate terminals and the number of eavesdroppers grow large without bound, we derive a deterministic approximation of an achievable ergodic secrecy rate for arbitrary inputs. In addition, we characterize the secrecy rates for practically relevant separate-decoding scheme at the receiver. We validate the proposed large-system approximation through numerical simulations and observe a good match with the actual secrecy rates. Finally, we also analyze some interesting behavior of the secrecy rates in the given scenario depending on the geometry of the nodes.

    Abstract [en]

    With the growth of wireless networks, security has become a fundamental issue in wireless communications due to the broadcast nature of these networks. In this work, we consider MIMO wiretap channels in a fast fading environment, for which the overall performance is characterized by the ergodic MIMO secrecy rate. Unfortunately, the direct solution to finding ergodic secrecy rates is prohibitive due to the expectations in the rates expressions in this setting. To overcome this difficulty, we invoke the large-system assumption, which allows a deterministic approximation to the ergodic mutual information. Leveraging results from random matrix theory, we are able to characterize the achievable ergodic secrecy rates. Based on this characterization, we address the problem of covariance optimization at the transmitter. Our numerical results demonstrate a good match between the large-system approximation and the actual simulated secrecy rates, as well as some interesting features of the precoder optimization.

    Myopic Multi-Hop Transmission Strategies in Layered Wireless Networks2011In: 2011 IEEE 22nd International Symposium On Personal Indoor And Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC), New York: IEEE , 2011, p. 1763-1767Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    A layered wireless network is considered, where information is transmitted in a multi-hop MIMO-like fashion from the source node layer through several intermediate layers of nodes before reaching the sink node layer. Analog network coding is investigated as the network transmission strategy, exploiting the inherent superposition features of the wireless channel. A general myopic transmission protocol is proposed, allowing overhearing across several layers. Special cases are investigated in terms of diversity and bit error rate when using different types of linear detectors. Conditions for successful decoding of all source node messages at each sink node are derived.

    Abstract [en]

    This paper studies the asymptotic sum-rate of the primary network within the relay-assisted multi-antenna cognitive radio system performing amplify-and-forward relaying. The achievable sum-rates are derived in the large-system limit by means of the replica method. A closed-form expression for the sum-rate of the primary network is obtained for large antenna arrays as a function of parameters obtained by solving a set of fixed-point equations. Numerical simulations confirm the validity of the results even for systems with only a few antennas at each terminal.

    Abstract [en]

    In this paper we consider a scenario, where several mobile multi-antenna terminals communicate with the multi- antenna base station within a cellular communication system over the flat Rayleigh fading channel. In addition, several terminals from the neighboring cell cause interference. For such a scenario, we derive, using the replica method, the asymptotic sum-rate of the communication in the large-system limit for arbitrary signal constellations. Moreover, we show via numerical results that when the interfering terminals use a QPSK constellation, the resulting interference becomes easier to handle. In effect, we may be able to accumulate more interfering transmitter-receiver pairs within the same area as compared to the case of Gaussian signals. Monte- Carlo simulations show that the derived asymptotic expression matches well with the simulated values even for small numbers of antennas.

    Asymptotic properties of dual-hop AF relay MIMO communication systems2014In: 2014 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), IEEE conference proceedings, 2014, p. 476-480Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The present paper studies the asymptotic performance of dual-hop amplify-and-forward multiple-input multiple-output relay communication systems. In the corresponding setup, a relay amplifies the signal received from a source, retransmitting it towards a destination, while the direct source-destination link is absent. Ergodic achievable rates under separate decoding, along with the average bit error rate under various detection schemes are derived in the regime where the number of antennas at each terminal grows without bound. To overcome the mathematical difficulty of averaging over both channel realizations and input signals we apply large-system analysis based on the replica method from statistical physics. The validity of the large-system analysis is further verified through Monte Carlo simulations, providing particularly good accuracy at low SNR.

    Large-System Analysis of Correlated MIMO Multiple Access Channels with Arbitrary Signaling in the Presence of Interference2014In: IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, ISSN 1536-1276, E-ISSN 1558-2248, Vol. 13, no 4, p. 2060-2073Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Presence of multiple antennas on both sides of a communication channel promises significant improvements in system throughput and power efficiency. In effect, a new class of large multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems has recently emerged and attracted both scientific and industrial attention. To analyze these systems in realistic scenarios one has to include such aspects as co-channel interference, multiple access and spatial correlation. In this paper, we study the properties of correlated MIMO multiple-access channels in the presence of external interference. Using the replica method from statistical physics, we derive the ergodic sum-rate of the communication for arbitrary signal constellations when the numbers of antennas at both ends of the channel grow large. Based on these asymptotic expressions, we also address the problem of sum-rate maximization using statistical channel state information and linear precoding. The numerical results demonstrate that when the interfering terminals use discrete constellations, the resulting interference becomes easier to handle compared to Gaussian signals. Thus, it may be possible to accommodate more interfering transmitter-receiver pairs within the same area as compared to the case of Gaussian signals. In addition, we demonstrate numerically for the Gaussian and QPSK signaling schemes that it is possible to design precoder matrices that significantly improve the achievable rates at low-to-mid range of signal-to-noise ratios when compared to isotropic precoding.

    Large-System Analysis of the K-Hop AF MIMO Relay Channel with Arbitrary Inputs2013In: IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory: Proceedings, IEEE conference proceedings, 2013, p. 439-443Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The present paper investigates the achievable data rates of multi-hop amplify-and-forward multi-antenna relay channels with arbitrary number of hops K. Each multi-antenna terminal in the system amplifies the received signal and retransmits it upstream. To analyze the ergodic end-to-end mutual information of the system, one has to perform averaging over the fading coefficients. To overcome this difficulty we apply large-system analysis, based on the assumption that the number of antennas grows without bound at every terminal. Using the replica method, we derive an explicit asymptotic expression for the ergodic mutual information between the input and output of the K-hop channel with no restrictions on the channel inputs. Numerical results support the validity of the replica analysis and show that the result is tight even for small antenna arrays.

    Multi-Cell Cooperation with Random User Locations under Arbitrary Signaling2013In: 2013 IEEE Information Theory Workshop (ITW), IEEE , 2013, p. 6691326-Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Base station cooperation in cellular networks has been recently recognized as a key technology for mitigating interference, providing thus significant improvements in the system performance. In this paper, we consider a simple scenario consisting of two one-dimensional cells, where the base stations have fixed locations, while the user terminals are randomly distributed on a line. Exploiting the replica method from statistical physics, we derive the ergodic sum-rate under arbitrary signaling for both cooperative and non-cooperative scenarios, when the system size grows large. The obtained results are analytically tractable and can be used to optimize the system parameters in a simple manner. The numerical examples show that the analysis provides good approximations for finite-sized systems.

    Cooperative communication in multi-source line networks2012In: 2012 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference, WCNC, IEEE Communications Society, 2012, p. 2379-2383Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Cooperative communication is shown to be an efficient method of combating fading in wireless networks. By "sharing" their antennas cooperating single-antenna nodes create a virtual multi-antenna system and therefore, benefit from spatial diversity. Network coding being a particular cooperative communication technique provides substantial gains in data rate, especially in networks with many sink nodes. By allowing intermediate nodes of a network to mix the incoming data streams, one can achieve the multicast capacity. Recently, Xiao and Skoglund showed that binary network coding (BNC) is not optimal for multi-user multi-relay networks in terms of diversity and proposed diversity network coding (DNC) scheme that outperforms BNC approach. Following this approach we examine potential diversity gains of using the DNC scheme for multi-source line networks. We show that the DNC technique outperforms both conventional time-orthogonal transmission and the BNC scheme. Further, the problem of optimal scheduling of the transmission is explored. We formulate the optimization problem and propose efficient solutions. Numerical results are presented to support theoretical findings.

    Power Allocation for Multi-Hop Decode-and-Forward Cognitive Radio Networks with Line Topology2012In: 2012 Swedish Communication Technologies Workshop, Swe-CTW 2012, Lund, 2012, p. 7-12Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In the present paper we study the power allocation for multi-hop underlay cognitive radio networks (CRNs) with line topology. That is, we consider a scenario, where a CRN operates in parallel to the primary network provided that the interference created to the primary network is limited by an acceptable threshold. The CNR is assumed to be a multi-hop relay network and hence before reaching the destination information from the source node may pass several hops from node to node. At each hop, the information is decoded and forwarded to the following node. It is further assumed that transmissions can be overheard by neighboring nodes, thereby creating interference. The power at each node can be optimally adjusted so that the end-to-end throughput of the CRN is maximized, while the constraint on interference towards the primary network is satisfied. In this paper, we show that for line CRNs the optimal power allocation is achieved when capacities of all intermediate links are equal and the interference constraint of the most disturbed primary user is fulfilled with equality. To simplify the computation of the optimal power allocation we derive two approximate solutions as well as several distributed power allocation schemes. The numerical results illustrate the interplay between the proposed solutions and the optimal power allocation.

    Optimal Power Allocation in Multi-Hop Cognitive Radio Networks2011In: 2011 IEEE 22nd International Symposium On Personal Indoor And Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC), New York: IEEE conference proceedings, 2011, p. 472-476Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Optimal power allocation in a multi-hop cognitive radio network is investigated. Information transmitted from the source passes through several wireless relay nodes before reaching the destination. At each hop, the received signal is decoded, re-encoded and retransmitted to the following node. Transmissions at every hop are overheard by nearby nodes and therefore cause interference. We study optimal power allocation strategies that maximize the end-to-end throughput of the network under the constraint of strictly limited interference to external users. We show that for networks that can be modeled as a line topology the optimal solution is achieved when the capacities of every intermediate link are equal and the interference power constraint is satisfied with equality. High-and low-SNR approximations that simplify the problem of finding the optimal power allocation are presented as well. The numerical results show good performance compared to schemes with equal power allocation.

    Unifying Analysis and Design of Rate-Compatible Concatenated Codes2011In: IEEE Transactions on Communications, ISSN 0090-6778, E-ISSN 1558-0857, Vol. 59, no 2, p. 343-351Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    An improved concatenated code structure, which generalizes parallel and serially concatenated convolutional codes is presented and investigated. The structure is ideal for designing low-complexity rate-compatible code families with good performance in both the waterfall and error floor regions. As an additional feature, the structure provides a unified analysis and design framework, which includes both parallel and serially concatenated codes as particular cases. We derive design criteria for the generalized class of concatenated convolutional codes based on union bounds for the error probability and extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) charts for the decoding threshold.
