Energy-Efficient Binary Power Control with Bit Error Rate Constraint in MIMO-OFDM Wireless Communication Systems
2012
Motivated by the demand for energy efficiency improvement in mobile communication industry, we explore an idea of optimizing energy efficiency for MIMO-OFDM wireless communication systems while maintaining users' quality of service (QoS) requirement. Based on the binary power control scheme,a power allocation criterion for energy efficiency optimization is derived under the total power constraint. From a bit error rate (BER) point of view, a protection constraint is configured to guarantee the system QoS. With the aim of energy efficiency optimization under QoS guarantee in MIMO-OFDM wireless communication systems, an energy-efficient binary power control with BER constraint (EBPCB) algorith…
A New Coupling Solution for G3-PLC Employment in MV Smart Grids
2019
This paper proposes a new coupling solution for transmitting narrowband multicarrier power line communication (PLC) signals over medium voltage (MV) power lines. The proposed system is based on an innovative PLC coupling principle, patented by the authors, which exploits the capacitive divider embedded in voltage detecting systems (VDS) already installed inside the MV switchboard. Thus, no dedicated couplers have to be installed and no switchboard modifications or energy interruptions are needed. This allows a significant cost reduction of MV PLC implementation. A first prototype of the proposed coupling system was presented in previous papers: it had a 15 kHz bandwidth useful to couple sin…
A novel frequency reuse scheme for coordinated multi-point transmission
2010
La transmisión multipunto coordinada (CoMP) se considera en 3GPP LTE-Advanced como una técnica clave para mejorar el rendimiento en el borde de la célula. Con el fin de apoyar la asignación conjunta de asignación de recursos entre células coordinadas en sistemas CoMP, es necesario diseñar esquemas eficientes de reutilización de frecuencias. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los esquemas de reutilización de frecuencias existentes no son adecuados para transmisión CoMP debido a que no consideran el escenario de transmisión conjunta multicelular en su regla de reutilización de frecuencias. Para resolver este problema, en este trabajo se propone un esquema de reutilización de frecuencias que divide el…
Performance analysis of Alamouti coded OFDM systems over wideband MIMO car-to-car channels correlated in time and space
2014
In this paper, the performance of Alamouti coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems over car-to-car (C2C) fading channels correlated in time and space is analyzed. Taking different geometrical scattering models into account, a generalized expression of the time-variant transfer function (TVTF) is derived for wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) C2C channels. We present a generalized expression for the bit error probability (BEP), which will be used to describe the performance of Alamouti coded OFDM systems over different types of C2C channel models, such as the rectangle model, the tunnel model, the street model, and the curve model. The effect of the maximu…
Sparsity-aware narrowband interference mitigation and subcarriers selection in OFDM-based cognitive radio networks
2016
In this paper, the performance of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing overlay cognitive radio network with subcarrier selection schemes is investigated. We propose three subcarrier selection techniques that reduce the level of interference at the primary base station based on collected channel state information from the different network nodes. Approximated outage probability expressions are also derived and verified by simulations for the different studied techniques. In addition, we propose and investigate a new approach for asynchronous narrowband interference (NBI) estimation and mitigation in cognitive radio networks. The proposed approach does not require prior knowledge of …
A Sparsity-Aware Approach for NBI Estimation and Mitigation in Large Cognitive Radio Networks
2016
Underlay cognitive networks should follow strict interference thresholds to operate in parallel with primary networks. This constraint limits their transmission power and eventually the coverage area. Therefore, in this paper, we first design a new approach for asynchronous narrow-band interference (NBI) estimation and mitigation in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing cognitive radio networks that does not require prior knowledge of the NBI characteristics. Our proposed approach allows the primary user to exploit the sparsity of the secondary users' interference signal to recover it and cancel it based on sparse signal recovery theory. We also propose two subcarrier selection schemes…
Combined Analysis of OFDM-UWB Transmission in Hybrid Wireless-Optical Access Networks
2009
[EN] The hybrid wireless-optical transmission of ultra-wideband signals employing orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing modulation (OFDM) ultra-wideband (UWB) as defined in the ECMA-368 standard is experimentally analyzed in this letter. The OFDM-UWB signals provide 400 Mb/s per user at optical distances from 5 to 50 km on standard single-mode fiber (SSMF). The analysis includes the wireless radiation from 0 to 3 m after optical transmission. The results indicate a maximum error-vector-magnitude degradation of 2.5 dB measured at 1.5-m radio after 50-km SSMF optical transmission for the first two UWB channels. This degradation translates to 1-m maximum wireless-reach penalty.
Analyses of Dual Polarization WDM and SCM Radio over Fiber and Radio over FSO for C-RAN Architecture
2016
En este trabajo se simulan y verifican experimentalmente los esquemas de transmisión para una Arquitectura de Red de Acceso Radio Centralizada (C-RAN) basados en la combinación de dos tecnologías: Radio sobre Fibra (RoF) y Radio sobre FSO (RoFSO). Las configuraciones propuestas se optimizan para la evolución a largo plazo (LTE) con un ancho de banda de 20 MHz utilizando una modulación de amplitud en cuadratura de 64-QAM en términos de magnitud de vector de error (EVM). En primer lugar, se comparan las mediciones de la multiplexación por división de polarización mediante la combinación de RoF y RoFSO (PDM-RoF/FSO) con los modelos de simulación. Esto se amplía con la combinación de PDM-Multip…
Efficient pipeline FFT processors for WLAN MIMO-OFDM systems
2005
The most area-efficient pipeline FFT processors for WLAN MIMO-OFDM systems are presented. It is shown that although the R2/sup 3/SDF architecture is the most area-efficient approach for implementing pipeline FFT processors, RrMDC architectures are more efficient in MIMO-OFDM systems when more than three channels are used.
Orthogonal Multicarrier Transmission with Modal Channel Estimation
2009
A novel multi-carrier orthogonal transmission scheme is presented. While being simpler to implement, it has a spectral efficiency and design parameters similar to those of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing based on Offset Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (OFDM/OQAM). A parametric channel estimation technique is subsequently reported. The proposed technique is based on an algorithm obtained from classic Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) by relaxation of the hypothesis on the number of measurements with respect to the number of sensors. Numerical simulations show that our proposal outperforms previous works in this field.
