Abstract Given that the exponential pace of growth in wireless traffic has continued for more than a century, wireless communication is one of the most influential innovations in recent years. Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (M-MIMO) is a promising technology for meeting the world's exponential growth in mobile data traffic, particularly in 5G networks. The most critical metrics in the massive MIMO scheme are Spectral Efficiency (SE) and Energy Efficiency (EE). For single-cell MMIMO uplink transmission, energy and spectral-efficiency trade-offs have to be estimated by optimizing the number of base station antennas versus the number of active users. This paper proposes an adaptive optimization technique focusing on maximizing Energy Efficiency at full spectral efficiency using a Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimizer. The number of active antennas is estimated according to the change in the number of active users based on the proposed GA scheme that optimizes the EE in the M-MIMO system. Simulation results show that the GA optimization technique achieved the maximum energy efficiency of the 5G M-MIMO platform and the maximum efficiency in the trade-off process.

As the core technology of 5G mobile communication systems, massive multi-input multi-output (MIMO) can dramatically enhance the energy efficiency (EE), as well as the spectral efficiency (SE), which meets the requirements of new applications. Meanwhile, physical layer multicast technology has gradually become the focus of next-generation communication technology research due to its capacity to efficiently provide wireless transmission from point to multipoint. The availability of channel state information (CSI), to a large extent, determines the performance of massive MIMO. However, because obtaining the perfect instantaneous CSI in massive MIMO is quite challenging, it is reasonable and practical to design a massive MIMO multicast transmission strategy using statistical CSI. In this paper, in order to optimize the system resource efficiency (RE) to achieve EE-SE balance, the EE-SE trade-offs in the massive MIMO multicast transmission are investigated with statistical CSI. Firstly, we formulate the eigenvectors of the RE optimization multicast covariance matrices of different user terminals in closed form, which illustrates that in the massive MIMO downlink, optimal RE multicast precoding is supposed to be done in the beam domain. On the basis of this viewpoint, the optimal RE precoding design is simplified into a resource efficient power allocation problem. Via invoking the quadratic transform, we propose an iterative power allocation algorithm, which obtains an adjustable and reasonable EE-SE tradeoff. Numerical simulation results reveal the near-optimal performance and the effectiveness of our proposed statistical CSI-assisted RE maximization in massive MIMO.

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is considered to be an emerging technique in wireless communication systems, as it offers the ability to boost channel capacity and spectral efficiency. However, a massive MIMO system requires huge base station (BS) antennas to handle users and suffers from inter-cell interference that leads to pilot contamination. To cope with this, time-shifted pilots are devised for avoiding interference between cells, by rearranging the order of transmitting pilots in different cells. In this paper, an adaptive-elephant-based spider monkey optimization (adaptive ESMO) mechanism is employed for time-shifted optimal pilot scheduling in a massive MIMO system. Here, user grouping is performed with the sparse fuzzy c-means (Sparse FCM) algorithm, grouping users based on such parameters as large-scale fading factor, SINR, and user distance. Here, the user grouping approach prevents inappropriate grouping of users, thus enabling effective grouping, even under the worst conditions in which the channel operates. Finally, optimal time-shifted scheduling of the pilot is performed using the proposed adaptive ESMO concept designed by incorporating adaptive tuning parameters. The efficiency of the adaptive ESMO approach is evaluated and reveals superior performance with the highest achievable uplink rate of 43.084 bps/Hz, the highest SINR of 132.9 dB, and maximum throughput of 2.633 Mbps

Massive multiple-input multiple-output or massive MIMO system has great potential for 5th generation (5G) wireless communication systems as it is capable of providing game-changing enhancements in area throughput and energy efficiency (EE). This work proposes a realistic and practically implementable EE model for massive MIMO systems while a general and canonical system model is used for single-cell scenario. Linear processing schemes are used for detection and precoding, i.e., minimum mean squared error (MMSE), zero-forcing (ZF), and maximum ratio transmission (MRT/MRC). Moreover, a power dissipation model is proposed that considers overall power consumption in uplink and downlink communications. The proposed model includes the total power consumed by power amplifier and circuit components at the base station (BS) and single antenna user equipment (UE). An optimal number of BS antennas to serve total UEs and the overall transmitted power are also computed. The simulation results confirm considerable improvements in the gain of area throughput and EE, and it also shows that the optimum area throughput and EE can be realized wherein a larger number of antenna arrays at BS are installed for serving a greater number of UEs.

Large Scale Multi User-MIMO (MU-MIMO) is a key technology with reference to 5G to achieve higher spectrum as well as energy efficiency. The new technology refers to the use of a large number of antennas at the base station serving many user terminals in the same time and frequency resource allowing the channel vectors nearly orthogonal as a result, there is a reduction in inter-user interference and users may be served with the significant data rate. The linear precoding techniques play a vital role in the reduction of interference among users and cells. In this paper, we have derived, analyzed and compared two important precoding techniques i.e. Zero-forcing (ZF) and Conjugate beamforming (CB) for large-scale multiuser-MIMO. We analyze these precoding techniques with respect to spectral efficiency and downlink power with imperfect channel state information (CSI) as well as with perfect CSI. It is shown that ZF performs better as compared to CB precoding for achieving higher spectral efficiency and requires lower downlink power. CB outperforms the ZF in terms of downlink transmit power when there is a requirement to achieve low spectral efficiency and also for celledge users, hence energy efficient in these cases. It is shown from simulation results that ZF precoding is the better choice for attaining higher spectral and energy efficiency for a large scale multiuser-MIMO communication system.

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.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been used widely in so many applications. It is the most efficient way to monitor the information. There areso many ways to deploy the sensors. Many problems are not identified and solved. The main challenge of WSN is energy efficiency and information security. WSN power consumption is reduced by genetic algorithm-based clustering algorithm. Information from cluster head to base station may have a lot of chances to get hacked. The most reliable way to manage energy consumption is clustering, and encryption will suit best for information security. In this paper, we explain clustering techniques and a new algorithm to encrypt the data in the network.

<span>Massive multi-input–multi-output (MIMO) systems are crucial to maximizing energy efficiency (EE) and battery-saving technology. Achieving EE without sacrificing the quality of service (QoS) is increasingly important for mobile devices. We first derive the data rate through zero forcing (ZF) and three linear precodings: maximum ratio transmission (MRT), zero forcing (ZF), and minimum mean square error (MMSE). Performance EE can be achieved when all available antennas are used and when taking account of the consumption circuit power ignored because of high transmit power. The aim of this work is to demonstrate how to obtain maximum EE while minimizing power consumed, which achieves a high data rate by deriving the optimal number of antennas in the downlink massive MIMO system. This system includes not only the transmitted power but also the fundamental operation circuit power at the transmitter signal. Maximized EE depends on the optimal number of antennas and determines the number of active users that should be scheduled in each cell. We conclude that the linear precoding technique MMSE achieves the maximum EE more than ZF and MRT</span><em></em><span>because the MMSE is able to make the massive MIMO system less sensitive to SNR at an increased number of antennas</span><span>.</span>
