Background & Objective: Wireless communication has immensely grown during the past few decades due to significant demand for mobile access. Although cost-effective as compared to their wired counterpart, maintaining good quality-of-service (QoS) in these networks has always remained a challenge. Multiple-input Multiple-output (MIMO) systems, which consists of multiple transmitter and receiver antennas, have been widely acknowledged for their QoS and transmit diversity. Though suited for cellular base stations, MIMO systems are not suited for small-sized wireless nodes due to their hardware complexity, cost, and increased power requirements. Cooperative communication that allows relays, i.e. mobile or fixed nodes in a communication network, to share their resources and forward other node’s data to the destination node has substituted the MIMO systems nowadays. To harness the full benefit of cooperative communication, appropriate relay node selection is very important. This paper presents an efficient single-hop distributed relay supporting medium access control (MAC) protocol (EDSRS) that works in the single-hop environment and improves the energy efficiency and the life of relay nodes without compensating the throughput of the network. Methods: The protocol has been simulated using NS2 simulator. The proposed protocol is compared with energy efficient cooperative MAC protocol (EECOMAC) and legacy distributed coordination function (DCF) on the basis of throughput, energy efficiency, transmission delay and an end to end delay with various payload sizes. Result and Conclusion: The result of the comparison indicates that the proposed protocol (EDSRS) outperforms the other two protocols.

Precoder Design

In this research work, we investigate precoder designs to maximize the energy efficiency (EE) of secure multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems in the presence of an eavesdropper. In general, the secure energy efficiency maximization (SEEM) problem is highly nonlinear and nonconvex and hard to be solved directly. To overcome this difficulty, we employ a branch-and-reduce-and-bound (BRB) approach to obtain the globally optimal solution. Since it is observed that the BRB algorithm suffers from highly computational cost, its globally optimal solution is importantly served as a benchmark for the performance evaluation of the suboptimal algorithms. Additionally, we also develop a low-complexity approach using the well-known zero-forcing (ZF) technique to cancel the wiretapped signal, making the design problem more amenable. Using the ZF based method, we transform the SEEM problem to a concave-convex fractional one which can be solved by applying the combination of the Dinkelbach and bisection search algorithm. Simulation results show that the ZF-based method can converge fast and obtain a sub-optimal EE performance which is closed to the optimal EE performance of the BRB method. The ZF based scheme also shows its advantages in terms of the energy efficiency in comparison with the conventional secrecy rate maximization precoder design.

The implementation of cooperative diversity with relays has advantages over point-to-point multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, in particular, overcoming correlated paths due to small inter-element spacing. A simple transmitter with one antenna may exploit cooperative diversity or space time coding gain through distributed relays. In this paper, similar distributed transmission is considered with the golden code, and the authors propose a new strategy for relay selection, called the maximum-mean selection policy, for distributed transmission with the full maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding and sphere decoding (SD) based on a wireless relay network. This strategy performs a channel strength tradeoff at every relay node to select the best two relays for transmission. It improves on the established one-sided selection strategy of maximum-minimum policy. Simulation results comparing the bit error rate (BER) based on different detectors and a scheme without relay selection, with the maximum-minimum and maximum-mean selection schemes confirm the performance advantage of relay selection. The proposed strategy yields the best performance of the three methods.

In this paper, a power control method is proposed for a buffer-aided relay node (RN) to enhance the energy efficiency of the RN system. By virtue of a buffer, the RN can reserve the data at the buffer when the the channel gain between an RN and a destination node (DN) is weaker than that between SN and RN. The RN then opportunistically forward the reserved data in the buffer according to channel condition between the RN and the DN. By exploiting the buffer, RN reduces transmit power when it reduces the transmit data rate and reserve the data in the buffer. Therefore, without any total throughput reduction, the power consumption of RN can be reduced, resulting in the energy efficiency (EE) improvement of the RN system. Furthermore, for the power control, we devise a simple power control method based on a two-dimensional surface fitting model of an optimal transmit power of RN. The proposed RN power control method is readily and locally implementable at the RN, and it can significantly improve EE of the RN compared to the fixed power control method and the spectral efficiency based method as verified by the rigorous numerical results.

In this article, a low-complexity and high-throughput sorted QR decomposition (SQRD) for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) detectors is presented. To reduce the heavy hardware overhead of SQRD, we propose an efficient SQRD algorithm based on a novel modified real-value decomposition (RVD). Compared to the latest study, the proposed SQRD algorithm can save the computational complexity by more than 44.7% with similar bit error rate (BER) performance. Furthermore, a corresponding deeply pipelined hardware architecture implemented with the coordinate rotation digital computer (CORDIC)-based Givens rotation (GR) is designed. In the design, we propose a time-sharing Givens rotation structure utilizing CORDIC modules in idle state to share the concurrent GR operations of other CORDIC modules, which can further reduce hardware complexity and improve hardware efficiency. The proposed SQRD processor is implemented in SMIC 55-nm CMOS technology, which processes 62.5 M SQRD per second at a 250-MHz operating frequency with only 176.5 kilo-gates. Compared to related studies, the proposed design has the best normalized hardware efficiency and achieves a 6-Gbps MIMO data rate which can support current high-speed wireless communication systems such as IEEE 802.11ax.

The hardware complexity of the analog Self-Interference (SI) canceler in conventional full duplex Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) designs mostly scales with the number of transmit and receive antennas, thus exploiting the benefits of analog cancellation becomes impractical for full duplex MIMO transceivers, even for a moderate number of antennas. In this paper, we provide an overview of two recent hardware architectures for the analog canceler comprising of reduced number of cancellation elements, compared to the state of the art, and simple multiplexers for efficient signal routing among the transceiver radio-frequency chains. The one architecture is based on analog taps and the other on AUXiliary (AUX) Transmitters (TXs). In contrast to the available analog cancellation architectures, the values for each tap or each AUX TX and the configuration of the multiplexers are jointly designed with the digital transceiver beamforming filters according to desired performance objectives. We present a general optimization framework for the joint design of analog SI cancellation and digital beamforming, and detail an example algorithmic solution for the sum-rate optimization objective. Our representative computer simulation results demonstrate the superiority, both in terms of hardware complexity and achievable performance, of the presented low complexity full duplex MIMO schemes over the relative available ones in the literature. We conclude the paper with a discussion on recent simultaneous transmit and receive operations capitalizing on the presented architectures, and provide a list of open challenges and research directions for future FD MIMO communication systems, as well as their promising applications.

We study the energy efficiency (EE) optimization problem in non-orthogonal unicast and multicast transmission for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with statistical channel state information of all receivers available at the transmitter. Firstly, we formulate the EE maximization problem. We reduce the number of variables to be solved and simplify this large-dimensional-matrix-valued problem into a real-vector-valued problem. Next, we lower the computational complexity significantly by replacing the objective with its deterministic equivalent to avoid the high-complex expectation operation. With guaranteed convergence, we propose an iterative algorithm on beam domain power allocation using the minorize maximize algorithm and Dinkelbach’s transform and derive the locally optimal power allocation strategy to achieve the optimal EE. Finally, we illustrate the significant EE performance gain of our EE maximization algorithm compared with the conventional approach through conducting numerical simulations.

Abstract Multi user - Multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) based wireless communication system has several advantage over conventional MIMO systems such as high data rate and channel capacity which drawn great attention recently and prominently preferred for 5G systems. And on the other side interferences due to the multi user mobile environment such as co-channel interference and multiple access interference the overall system performance will be degraded and highly reliable techniques need to be incorporate to improve the Quality of services.

The proposed radix factorized Fast Fourier transform - multi-beam forming (RF-FFT-MBF) architectures have the potential to reduce both hardware complexity and energy consumptions as compared to its state-of-the-art methods while meeting the throughput requirements of emerging 5G devices. Here through simulation results the efficiency of scaled ML sub detector system at the downlink side is compared with the conventional ML detectors. Through experimental results it is well proved that the proposed detector offers significant hardware and energy efficiency with least possible error rate performance overhead.

Background: The paper considers the wireless system with large number of users (more than 50 users) and each user is assigned large number of antennas (around 200) at the Base Station (BS). Objective: The challenges associated with the defined system are increased power consumption and high complexity of associated circuitry. The antenna selection is introduced to combat these problems while the usage of linear precoding reduces computational complexity. The literature suggests number of antenna selection techniques based on statistical properties of signal. However, each antenna selection technique suits well to specific number of users. Methods: In this paper, the random antenna selection is compared with norm-based antenna selection. It is analysed that the random antenna selection leads to inefficient spectral efficiency if the number of users are more than 50 in Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) system. Results: The paper proposes the optimization of Energy-Efficiency (EE) with random transmit antenna selection for large number of users in MU-MIMO systems. Conclusion: Also the computation leads to optimization of number of transmit antennas at the BS for energy efficiency. The proposed algorithm results in improvement of the energy efficiency by 27% for more than 50 users.
