“Generalized” interpolation (called GIα here) of fast Fourier transform (FFT) spectra apodized by a family of sinα ( X) windows has previously been proposed. The GIα gives the highly accurate interpolated frequency by calculating the simple formula of frequency determination with the use of two squared ratios between three magnitudes nearest to the peak maximum on the apodized FFT spectrum. Although the value of window parameter α, limited to integer values, has been used for the GIα, we show in the present paper that the GIα with a real α value also gives an extremely good estimate of the true frequency from the sinα ( X)-apodized spectra. Thus, we intend to apply the GIα with the optimal values of α to FFT spectra apodized by any other window functions that are often used in Fourier spectroscopy. Simulation results show that the GIα is easier and more accurate than the KCe interpolation, which uses a family of interpolating functions [ KCe(ω) = ( aω2 + bω + c)e] proposed by Keefe and Comisarow. Finally, in the presence of noise we examine effects of damping and windowing on the frequency interpolation of FFT spectra. Because damping and windowing reduce the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), we define anew the relative SNR by the ratio of the SNR of the apodized spectrum of a damped sinusoid to the SNR of the unapodized spectrum of an undamped sinusoid. Numerical calculation shows that the relative SNR varies, owing to damping rather than windowing. In fact, the observed frequency error roughly increases as the damping ratio increases for any window functions, as is expected from our previous investigation that the frequency error based upon the GIα is inversely proportional to the SNR. However, no obvious differences between the various window functions are observed in the presence of noise.

Cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) is an important topic due to its capacity to solve the issue of the hidden terminal. However, the sensing performance of CSS is still poor, especially in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) situations. In this paper, convolutional neural networks (CNN) are considered to extract the features of the observed signal and, as a consequence, improve the sensing performance. More specifically, a novel two-dimensional dataset of the received signal is established and three classical CNN (LeNet, AlexNet and VGG-16)-based CSS schemes are trained and analyzed on the proposed dataset. In addition, sensing performance comparisons are made between the proposed CNN-based CSS schemes and the AND, OR, majority voting-based CSS schemes. The simulation results state that the sensing accuracy of the proposed schemes is greatly improved and the network depth helps with this.

This paper proposes an improved acquisition method for high-order binary-offset-carrier (BOC) modulated signals based on fractal geometry. We introduced the principle of our acquisition method, and outlined its framework. We increase the main peak to side peaks ratio in the BOC autocorrelation function (ACF), with a simple fractal geometry transform. The proposed scheme is applicable to both generic high-order sine-and cosine-phased BOC-modulated signals. Simulation results show that the proposed method increases output signal to noise ratio (SNR).

For the using of multi-modulation, the precondition of receiving and demodulating signal is to determine the type of the modulation, so automatic recognition of modulation signal has significant influence on the analysis of the signals. In this paper, digital modulation recognition is studied respectively in different environment of White Gaussian Noise (WGN), stationary interference and multipath interference. The simulation results show that the recognition success rate is the highest in stationary interference environment and the lowest in multipath interference environment with the same signal to noise ratio (SNR).

A structure of faster-than-Nyquist (FTN) signaling combined with superposition coded modulation (SCM) is considered. The so-called FTN-SCM structure is able to achieve the constrained capacity of FTN signaling and only requires a low detection complexity. By deriving a new observation model suitable for FTN-SCM, we offer the power allocation based on a proper detection method. Simulation results show that, at any given spectral efficiency, the bit error rate (BER) curve of FTN-SCM lies clearly outside the minimum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) boundary of orthogonal signaling with a larger alphabet. The achieved data rates are also close to the maximum data rates of the certain shaping pulse.

In this article, the main parameter of the correlative-interferometric direction finding method with twodimensional correlative processing of spatial signal in the aperture of a linear antenna array (AA) is determined as the value of spatial shift within the AA aperture. The corresponding objective function is also formed. Analytical optimization of this parameter is presented and a comparative analysis of analytical calculations based on simulation results is conducted. In the simulation, a range of dependencies of the middle square deviation of estimation of direction on the value of the spatial shift for a signal-to-noise ratio of 0 dB, for minimum 3-sample and 4-sample Blackman-Harris windows of the spectral analysis, is received. The value of the middle square deviation of estimation of direction will be minimal and will equal 0.02 degrees using a minimum 3-sample Blackman-Harris window with the −67 dB level of side lobes. It offers high noise immunity and high accuracy of direction finding.

Abstract This paper proposes a new Matlab-developed algorithm for automatic recognition of digital modulations using the constellation of states. Using this technique the automatic distinction between four digital modulation schemes (8-QAM, 16-QAM, 32-QAM and 64-QAM) was made. It has been seen that the efficiency of the algorithm is influenced by the type of modulation, the value of the signal-to-noise ratio and the number of samples. In the case of an AWGN noise channel the simulation results indicated that the value of SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) has a small influence on the recognition rate for lower-order QAM (8-QAM and 16-QAM). The length of the signal may change essentially the recognition rate of this algorithm especially for modulations with a high number of bits per symbol. Consequently, for the 64-QAM modulation in a case of 25dB signal-to-noise ratio the recognition rate is doubled if the sample rate is incresed from 5400 to 80640.

This letter studies the performance of a single gateway LoRa system in the presence of different interference considering the imperfect orthogonality effect. It utilizes concepts of stochastic geometry to present a low-complexity approximate closed-form model for computing the success and coverage probabilities under these challenging conditions. Monte Carlo simulation results have shown that LoRa is not as theoretically described as a technology that can cover few to ten kilometers. It was found that in the presence of the combination of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and imperfect orthogonality between spreading factors (SF), the performance degrades dramatically beyond a couple of kilometers. However, better performance is observed when perfect orthogonality is considered and SNR is not included. Furthermore, the performance is annulus dependent and slightly improves at the border of the deployment cell annuli. Finally, the coverage probability declines exponentially as the average number of end devices grows.

AbstractRecently, deep neural network (DNN) studies on direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimations have attracted more and more attention. This new method gives an alternative way to deal with DOA problem and has successfully shown its potential application. However, these works are often restricted to previously known signal number, same signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) or large intersignal angular distance, which will hinder their generalization in real application. In this paper, we present a novel DNN framework that realizes higher resolution and better generalization to random signal number and SNR. Simulation results outperform that of previous works and reach the state of the art.

In a dense femtocell network, beyond co-tier and cross-tier interference mitigation, handover femtocell- femtocell and macrocell-femtocell is a major challenge. In order to perform successful handover, avoiding the scanning of a large neighbor list and shortening the handover period is required to identify the optimal neighbor. In this paper, a neighbor cell list optimization method based on fade duration along with an algorithm for open and hybrid femtocell networks is proposed. The proposed method considers fade duration outage probability (FDOP), distance between femtocell access points, and the operating frequency as benchmarks for optimization of the neighbor list selection process. FDOP determines a duration beyond which a connection is considered in an outage state. The simulation results based on this proposed method also show an improvement over previously proposed methods that create neighboring lists based on received signal and signal-to-noise ratio. Fade duration based optimization provides a much better prediction of traffic performance.

Frequency locked loop (FLL) plays an important role in carrier synchronization because of its excellent dynamic performance. However, it performs inadequately in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). In this paper, the principle of stochastic resonance (SR) is briefly introduced and a SR processor is proposed. Based on traditional FLL, the SR processor is added before frequency discriminator in order to weaken the effect that thermal noise brings to FLL. The paper investigates the processing effect of SR. Simulation results show that the performance of improved FLL is greatly improved. It can tolerate rather high dynamics and tracking accuracy of frequency achieve 0.2Hz even with CNR as low as 25 dBHz, which verified the validity of above ideas.
