In this paper, a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) system with finite-bit feedback first proposed by Love-Heath is considered, where a transmitted signal consists of a precode followed by an orthogonal space-time block code (OSTBC), such as Alamouti code. A new design criterion and a corresponding design method of precoders are proposed. Simulations show that the precoders obtained by our proposed criterion and method perform better than the existing ones. Furthermore, since our proposed precoders have a layered structure, their designs can be implemented in the simplest Grassmannian manifold. Moreover, a fast encoding algorithm can be applied, which can greatly reduce the complexity of codeword selection. In this paper, we also propose non-unitary precoders and their design criterion and method based on the performance analysis and the special property of an OSTBC. Interestingly, non-unitary precoders can significantly improve performance over unitary precoders.

A new robust decoding technique which designed of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Space–Time Block Code (MIMO-STBC) using Fast Independent Component Analysis (Fast-ICA) based on proposed mixing model has been performed in this paper. This decoding technique is characterized by i) complexity is very low, ii) the speed is high and iii) BER performance is excellent. It can be achieved with any MIMO STBC system with a fewer pilot symbols number. Also, it is reduced decoding time into 1/8 by innovating a simple strategy referred by one source extraction method. Also, this paper includes suitable initializing for the de-mixing vector to solve the ambiguities problem of sign and source of blind source separation (BSS). To test the proposed technique, four transmitters (4Tx) STBC MIMO system was implemented using MATLAB2018. It also found that excellent BER performance associated with a high number of symbols per frame (about 8012 symbols). The simulation results show that the new decoder works for any number of receiver antenna (Nr = 2, 4 and 5). As compare with classical decoding algorithm, it is found that the new decoder provides coding gain (at BER =10-6 ) equal to 1 dB,1.45 dB and 1.76 dB when Nr = 2,4 and 8 respectively, using only 2~3 iterations only.

Abstract Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based massive multiuser (MU) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system is popularly known as high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) issue. The OFDM-based massive MIMO system exhibits large number of antennas at Base Station (BS) due to the use of large number of high-power amplifiers (HPA). High PAPR causes HPAs to work in a nonlinear region, and hardware cost of nonlinear HPAs are very high and also power inefficient. Hence, to tackle this problem, this manuscript suggests a novel scheme based on the joint MU precoding and PAPR minimization (PP) expressed as a convex optimization problem solved by steepest gradient descent (GD) with μ-law companding approach. Therefore, we develop a new scheme mentioned to as MU-PP-GDs with μ-law companding to minimize PAPR by compressing and enlarging of massive MIMO OFDM signals simultaneously. At CCDF = 10−3, the proposed scheme (MU-PP-GDs with μ-law companding for Iterations = 100) minimizes the PAPR to 3.70 dB which is better than that of MU-PP-GDs, (iteration = 100) as shown in simulation results.

Energy supply and information backhaul are critical problems for wireless sensor networks deployed in remote places with poor infrastructure. To deal with these problems, this paper proposes an airborne massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system for wireless energy transfer (WET) and information transmission. An air platform (AP) equipped with a two-dimensional rectangular antenna array is employed to broadcast energy and provide wireless access for ground sensors. By exploiting the statistical property of air-terrestrial MIMO channels, the energy and information beamformers are jointly designed to maximize the average received signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), which gives rise to a statistical max-SINR beamforming scheme. The scheme does not rely on the instantaneous channel state information, but still requires large numbers of RF chains at AP. To deal with this problem, a heuristic strongest-path energy and information beamforming scheme is proposed, which can be implemented in the analog-domain with low computational and hardware complexity. The analysis of the relation between the two schemes reveals that, with proper sensor scheduling, the strongest-path beamforming is equivalent to the statistical max-SINR beamforming when the number of AP antennas tends to infinity. Using the asymptotic approximation of average received SINR at AP, the system parameters, including transmit power, number of active antennas of AP and duration of WET phase, are optimized jointly to maximize the system energy efficiency. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed schemes achieve a good tradeoff between system performance and complexity.

Future Wireless Networks are expected to adopt multi-user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) systems whose performance is maximized by making use of precoding at the transmitter. This chapter describes the recent advances in precoding design for MU-MIMO and introduces a new technique to improve the precoder performance. Without claiming to be comprehensive, the chapter gives deep introduction on basic MIMO techniques covering the basics of single user multiple input multiple output (SU-MIMO) links, its capacity, various transmission strategies, SU-MIMO link precoding, and MIMO receiver structures. After the introduction, MU-MIMO system model is defined and maximum achievable rate regions for both MU-MIMO broadcast and MU-MIMO multiple access channels are explained. It is followed by critical literature review on linear precoding design for MU-MIMO broadcast channel. This paves the way for introducing an improved technique of precoding design that is followed by its performance evaluation.
