Improved Performance in Quadrotor Trajectory Tracking Using MIMO PIλ-D Control
2022
This paper aims to develop a fractional control approach for quadrotor trajectory tracking. A fractional-order integrator (PIλ) with a feedback derivative scheme is designed to control each state of the MIMO system. The designed feedback controller stabilizes the initially unstable decoupled states and widens the stability, while PIλ provides precise trajectory tracking capabilities. After a successful simulation study, the new PIλ-D controller is implemented in the hardware environment. The various performance and load disturbance analyses reveal the effectiveness of the proposed scheme compared with the classical PD/PID controllers. The real-time study also shows that this scheme is a sim…
A 16QAM super-orthogonal space-frequency code for broadband mobile communication systems with two transmit antennas
2010
We combine our previously designed 32-state super-orthogonal space-time trellis code (SOSTTC) with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) to build a broadband mobile communication system having a spectral efficiency that amounts to 4 bits/s/Hz depending on the length of the cyclic prefix used to avoid interframe interference. The transmitter is equipped with two antennas, where the OFDM frames they transmit are not independent, as they carry the same information in an orthogonal form. The 2N OFDM tones are grouped in N pairs of tones. Each group of two tones transmits the entries of a 2×2 orthogonal matrix. In our case, the entries are symbols taken from the rectangular 16-point …
A Wideband One-Ring MIMO Channel Model Under Non-Isotropic Scattering Conditions
2008
In this paper, we present a wideband one-ring multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel model for non-isotropic scattering environments. The model is designed in such a way that the delay power spectral density (PSD) of the resulting reference channel model is identical to a given delay PSD. Furthermore, we present an efficient deterministic channel simulation model obtained by using the principle of deterministic channel modeling. The statistical properties of both the reference model and the simulation model are also studied. Analytical expressions will be presented for the temporal autocorrelation function (ACF), the two-dimensional (2D) space cross-correlation function (CCF), and th…
Peptide microarrays enable rapid mimotope optimization for pharmacokinetic analysis of the novel therapeutic antibody IMAB362.
2014
As membrane proteins play an important role in a variety of life-threatening diseases, the development of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies against membrane proteins is of significant interest. Among many other requirements, the process of antibody drug development requires a set of tailor-made assays for the characterization of the antibodies and for monitoring their activity. Designing assays to characterize antibodies directed to membrane proteins is challenging, because the natural targets are often not available in a format that is compatible with a biochemical assay setup. Thus, alternatives that mimic the targeted membrane proteins are needed. In this study, we developed optimal pept…
An ergodic wideband MIMO channel simulator based on the geometrical T-junction scattering model for vehicle-to-vehicle communications
2010
In this paper, a wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) simulation model for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) channels in T-junction propagation environments is proposed. This simulation model takes the exact relationship between the angle-of-arrival (AOA) and the angle-of-departure (AOD) into account. In order to determine the parameters of the simulation model, the Riemann sum method (RSM) is applied. Furthermore, the statistical and ergodic properties of the simulation model are studied. Closed-form solutions are derived for the space-time-frequency cross-correlation function (STF-CCF), the two-dimensional (2D) spatial cross-correlation function (CCF), the temporal autocorrelation functi…
Energy Efficiency Optimization for Multi-cell Massive MIMO : Centralized and Distributed Power Allocation Algorithms
2021
This paper investigates the energy efficiency (EE) optimization in downlink multi-cell massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). In our research, the statistical channel state information (CSI) is exploited to reduce the signaling overhead. To maximize the minimum EE among the neighbouring cells, we design the transmit covariance matrices for each base station (BS). Specifically, optimization schemes for this max-min EE problem are developed, in the centralized and distributed ways, respectively. To obtain the transmit covariance matrices, we first find out the closed-form optimal transmit eigenmatrices for the BS in each cell, and convert the original transmit covariance matrices desi…
A performance study of LTE MIMO-OFDM systems using the extended one-ring MIMO channel model
2012
In this paper, we consider a long-term evolution (LTE) system for the downlink by using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) techniques. The downlink channel is modeled by the socalled extended MIMO one-ring model. This model extends the well-known narrowband one-ring model with respect to frequency selectivity. The symbol error rate (SER) performance of the LTE MIMO-OFDM system is investigated for the downlink by employing different kinds of spatial encoders, where it is assumed that the channel state information (CSI) is perfectly known. For comparison, the space-time block coding (STBC) scheme, the vertical Bell Laboratories layered spac…
A measurement-based channel model for vehicular communications in tunnels
2014
Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC), 2014 IEEE, Istanbul, TURQUIE, 06-/04/2014 - 09/04/2014; In this paper, we present a new version of the iterative nonlinear least square approximation (INLSA) algorithm for the design of measurement-based channel simulators. The proposed method aims to match the time-variant impulse response (TVIR) of the simulation model to that of the measured channel. The propagation delays are discerned directly from the measurements, whereas the gains, the Doppler frequencies, and the phases are computed iteratively by minimizing a matching error norm. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method in terms of the approximation of the transfe…
On the Statistical Properties of the Capacity of Spatially Correlated Nakagami-M MIMO Channels
2008
This paper studies the statistical properties of the channel capacity of spatially correlated Nakagami-m multiple- input multiple-output (MIMO) channels. We have derived closed- form expressions for the probability density function (PDF), the cumulative distribution function (CDF), the level-crossing rate (LCR), and the average duration of fades (ADF) of the lower bound on the channel capacity. In order to study the impact of the spatial correlation on the channel capacity, the analysis of the statistical properties of the channel capacity is carried out for different receiver antenna spacings. It is observed that the antenna spacing has a significant influence on the spread and maximum val…
The Impact of Shadowing and the Severity of Fading on the First and Second Order Statistics of the Capacity of OSTBC MIMO Nakagami-Lognormal Channels
2011
Published version of an article in Wireless Personal Communications (2011), 1-16. Also available from the publisher at http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11277-011-0275-x This article presents a thorough statistical analysis of the capacity of orthogonal space-time block coded (OSTBC) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Nakagami- lognormal (NLN) channels. The NLN channel model allows to study the joint effects of fast fading and shadowing on the statistical properties of the channel capacity. We have derived exact analytical expressions for the probability density function (PDF), cumulative distribution function (CDF), level-crossing rate (LCR), and average duration of fades (ADF) of the capacity…
