In this paper, we consider a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)—non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system with reinforcement learning (RL). NOMA, which is a technique for increasing the spectrum efficiency, has been extensively studied in fifth-generation (5G) wireless communication systems. The application of MIMO to NOMA can result in an even higher spectral efficiency. Moreover, user pairing and power allocation problem are important techniques in NOMA. However, NOMA has a fundamental limitation of the high computational complexity due to rapidly changing radio channels. This limitation makes it difficult to utilize the characteristics of the channel and allocate radio resources efficiently. To reduce the computational complexity, we propose an RL-based joint user pairing and power allocation scheme. By applying Q-learning, we are able to perform user pairing and power allocation simultaneously, which reduces the computational complexity. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves a sum rate similar to that achieved with the exhaustive search (ES).

In this paper, we investigate a deep learning based resource allocation scheme for massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems, where a base station (BS) with a large scale antenna array communicates with a user equipment (UE) using beamforming. In particular, we propose Deep Scanning, in which a near-optimal beamforming vector can be found based on deep Q-learning. Through simulations, we confirm that the optimal beam vector can be found with a high probability. We also show that the complexity required to find the optimum beam vector can be reduced significantly in comparison with conventional beam search schemes.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar is used extensively due to its application of simultaneous transmission and reception of multiple signals through multiple antennas or channels. MIMO radar receives enormous attention in communication technologies due to its better target detection, higher resolution and improved accurate target parameter estimation. The MIMO radar has several antennas for transmitting the information and also the reflected signals from the target is received by the multiple antennas and it mainly used in military and civilian fields. But sometimes the performance of the MIMO radars is degraded due to its limited power. So the optimum power allocation is required in the communication systems of MIMO radar to improve its performance. In this paper, an Energy Efficiency based Power Allocation (EEPA) is used to allocate the power to a user of the clusters and also across the clusters. Here, the MIMO radars are clustered by using a naive bayes classifier. Subsequently, an efficient target detection is achieved by using Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) and then the clusters are divided into primary and distributive clusters based on the distance from the target. Here, the proposed methodology is named as EEPA-GLRT and the implementation of this MIMO radar system with an effective power allocation is done by Labview. The performance of the EEPA-GLRT methodology is analyzed in terms of the power consumption of various clusters. The performance of the EEPA-GLRT methodology is compared with Generalized Nash Game (GNG) method and it shows the power consumption of EEPA-GLRT is 0.0549 for cluster 1 of scenario 1, which is less when compared to the GNG method.

Aiming at the problem of high computational complexity due to a large number of antennas deployed in mmWave massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems, this paper proposes an efficient algorithm for optimizing beam control vectors with low computational complexity based on codebooks for millimeter-wave massive MIMO systems with split sub-arrays hybrid beamforming architecture. A bidirectional method is adopted on the beam control vector of each antenna sub-array both at the transmitter and receiver, which utilizes the idea of interference alignment (IA) and alternating optimization. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has low computational complexity, fast convergence, and improved spectral efficiency as compared with the state-of-the-art algorithms.

The normal operations of radar systems and communication systems under the condition of spectrum coexistence are facing a huge challenge. This paper uses game theory to study power allocation problems between multistatic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radars and downlink communication. In the case of spectrum coexistence, radars, base station (BS) and multi-user (MU) have the working state of receiving and transmitting signals, which can cause unnecessary interferences to different systems. Therefore, when they work together, they should try to suppress mutual interferences. Firstly, the signal from BS is considered as interference when radar detects and tracks targets. A supermodular power allocation game (PAG) model is established and the existence and uniqueness of the Nash equilibrium (NE) in this game are proved. In addition, the power allocation problem from BS to MU is also analyzed, and two Stackelberg PAG models are constructed. It is proved that the NE of each game exists and is unique. Simultaneously, two Stackelberg power allocation iterative algorithms converge to the NEs. Finally, numerical results verify the convergence of the proposed PAG algorithms.

Abstract: A combination of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technologies can be employed in modern wireless communication systems to achieve high data rates and improved spectrum efficiency. For multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems, this paper provides a Rayleigh fading channel estimation technique based on pilot carriers. The channel is estimated using traditional Least Square (LS) and Minimum Mean Square (MMSE) estimation techniques. The MIMO-OFDM system's performance is measured using the Bit Error Rate (BER) and Mean Square Error (MSE) levels. Keywords: MIMO, MMSE, Channel estimation, BER, OFDM

Proportional–integral–derivative (PID) control remains the primary choice for industrial process control problems. However, owing to the increased complexity and precision requirement of current industrial processes, a conventional PID controller may provide only unsatisfactory performance, or the determination of PID gains may become quite difficult. To address these issues, studies have suggested the use of reinforcement learning in combination with PID control laws. The present study aims to extend this idea to the control of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) process that suffers from both physical coupling between inputs and a long input/output lag. We specifically target a thin film production process as an example of such a MIMO process and propose a self-tuning two-degree-of-freedom PI controller for the film thickness control problem. Theoretically, the self-tuning functionality of the proposed control system is based on the actor-critic reinforcement learning algorithm. We also propose a method to compensate for the input coupling. Numerical simulations are conducted under several likely scenarios to demonstrate the enhanced control performance relative to that of a conventional static gain PI controller.

Many communication systems are based on the Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) scheme, and Orthogonal Space–time Block Transmit diversity Coding (OSTBC), combined with Maximal Ratio Receive Combining (MRRC), to create an optimal diversity system. A system with optimal diversity fixes and optimizes the channel’s effects under multi-path and Rayleigh fading with maximum energy efficiency; however, the challenge does not end with dealing with the channel destruction of the multi-path impacts. Susceptibility to interference is a significant vulnerability in future wireless mobile networks. The 5th Generation New Radio (5G-NR) technologies bring hundreds of small cells and pieces of User Equipment (UE) per indoor or outdoor local area scenario under a specific Long Term Evolution (LTE)-based station (e-NodeB), or under 5G-NR base-station (g-NodeB). It is necessary to study issues that deal with many interference signals, and smart jammers from advanced communication equipment cause deterioration in the links between the UE, the small cells, and the NodeB. In this paper, we study and present the significant impact and performances of 2×2 Alamouti Phase-Shift Keying (PSK) modulation techniques in the presence of an interferer and a smart jammer. The destructive effects affecting the MIMO array and the advanced diversity technique without closed-loop MIMO are analyzed. The performance is evaluated in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER) vs. Signal to Interference Ratio (SIR). In addition, we proved the impairment of the orthogonal spectrum assumption mathematically.
