Effects of imperfect channel sensing and estimation on the performance of cognitive radio systems

In realistic scenarios of cognitive radio (CR) systems, imperfect channel sensing may occur due to false alarms and miss detections. Channel estimation between the secondary user transmitter and another secondary user receiver is another challenge in CR systems, especially for frequency‐selective fading channels. In this context, this paper presents a study of the effects of imperfect channel sensing and channel estimation on the performance of CR systems. In particular, different methods of channel estimation are analyzed under channel sensing imperfections. Initially, a CR system model with channel sensing errors is described. Then, the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is implemented in order to learn the channel fading coefficients. By exploiting the pilot symbols and the detected symbols at the secondary user receiver, we can estimate the channel coefficients. We further compare the proposed EM estimation algorithm with different estimation algorithms such as the least squares (LS) and linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE). The expressions of channel estimates and mean squared errors (MSE) are determined, and their dependencies on channel sensing uncertainty are investigated. Finally, to reduce the complexity of EM algorithm, a sub‐optimal algorithm is also proposed. The obtained results show that the proposed sub‐optimal algorithm provides a comparable bit error rate (BER) performance with that of the optimal one yet with less computational complexity.     

相关Nakagami信道下信道估计器对RAKE接收机性能影响研究

在实际环境中RAKE接收机在接收信号时都要进行信道系数估计,以便进行相干合并。文章研究了不采用导频信号与采用导频信号两种估计器,具有估计误差情况下,在相关Nakagami信道下的RAKE接收机的性能,并且通过特征函数法得到了误码率公式的闭合表达式。比较了两种估计器对系统性能的影响,最后给出了数值结果,可以看出,当导频信号能量与信号能量相等,且导频数目比较多时（大于5）,采用导频信号的系统性能优于直接估计信道系数的系统。直接估计信道系数的系统性能在信噪比大于5dB后,其性能远远优于导频信号的估计系统。     

A continuously adaptive MLSE receiver for mobile communications:algorithm and performance

The paper presents a Euclidean distance maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE) receiver, based on the Viterbi algorithm (VA), suitable for fading and noisy communications channels, as that specified by the Group Special Mobiles (GSM). In a mobile cellular system, the fast varying channel characteristics, due to the fading and Doppler effects, require adaptive methods to update the channel coefficients to the MLSE receiver. The proposed technique continuously estimates the channel characteristics directly within the metric calculation of the VA. At each step of the VA, the sequence associated to the path with the best metric value (minimum-survivor method) among the survivor paths is used to update the channel estimate (employing conventional adaptive algorithms) throughout the entire informative sequence. However, the detection of the transmitted data sequence is performed by the VA only at the end of each burst. The proposed technique allows simpler receiver implementation and the simulation results show a good performance of this adaptive MLSE receiver in typical GSM environments     

Secrecy outage performance analysis of MIMO underlay cognitive radio networks with delayed CSI and transmitter antenna selection

Cognitive radio network is an emerging solution to deal with spectrum scarcity and to utilize the radio spectrum in opportunistic and efficient manner. Secure data transmission is one of the important issues in these kind of networks. This work studies the secrecy outage performance of a multiple-input multiple-output underlay cognitive wiretap radio network system over Rayleigh fading channel with delayed channel state information. This work considers that the secondary transmitter is equipped with multiple antennas and confidential information is transmitted from to multiantenna receiver in the presence of multiantenna eavesdropper. Further, the transmit antenna selection scheme is considered at secondary transmitter to reduce the complexity of antenna selection and to make it more practicable. To improve the quality of signal, this work considers maximal ratio combining (MRC) at secondary receiver, while selection combining and MRC techniques are utilized at the eavesdropper. The closed form expression for exact, asymptotic, and intercept secrecy outage probability has been derived, and the simulation is done for the validation of analytical results. The derived results reveal deterioration of channel secrecy performance with outdated channel state information, and the eavesdropper with outdated channel state information has also an adverse effect. Moreover, the diversity order that can be achieved in underlay cognitive radio network with outdated channel state information is unity.

一种改进的快变信道展开模型

 在高速移动正交频分复用系统（OFDM）中,信道的快速变化引起载波间干扰,降低系统性能,且使信道的准确估计变得更为困难. 由于在接收端待估计的信道参数多于接收信号样点数,信道估计方程无确定解. 为了解决这一问题,通常将快变信道展开为基函数叠加的近似表达形式,信道估计问题变成对展开系数的估计,待估计的参数大大减少. 本文分析并比较了常用的基展开模型的特点,指出了它们的不足,并在此基础上提出一种改进的快变信道展开模型,该模型的核心思想是在过采样基础上通过基线补偿减小吉布斯效应的影响,从而减小展开误差. 该模型性能与信道的统计性质无关,且在展开基的变化赶不上实际信道变化速度时,展开误差不会明显增大,优于CE-BEM, GCE-BEM, KL-MEM等模型,可用于高速移动OFDM系统的快变信道估计.

Finite-State Markov Wireless Channel Modeling for Railway Tunnel Environments

In recent years,high-speed railways(HSRs)have developed rapidly with a high transportation capacity and high comfort level.A tunnel is a complex high-speed rail terrain environment.It is very important to establish an accurate channel propagation model for a railway tunnel environment to improve the safety of HSR operation.In this paper,a method for finite-state Markov chain(FSMC)channel modeling with least squares fitting based on non-uniform interval division is proposed.First,a path loss model is obtained according to measured data.The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver in the tunnel is non-uniformly divided into several large non-overlapping intervals based on the path loss model.Then,the Lloyd-Max quantization method is used to determine the threshold of the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and the channel state quantization value and obtain the FSMC state transition probability matrix.Simulation experiments show that the proposed wireless channel model has a low mean square error(MSE)and can accurately predict the received signal power in a railway tunnel environment.     

Compressive sensing for ultra‐wideband channel estimation: on the sparsity assumption of ultra‐wideband channels

Due to the sparse structure of ultra‐wideband (UWB) multipath channels, there has been a considerable amount of interest in applying the compressive sensing (CS) theory to UWB channel estimation. The main consideration of the related studies is to propose different implementations of the CS theory for the estimation of UWB channels, which are assumed to be sparse. In this study, we investigate the suitability of standardized UWB channel models to be used with the CS theory. In other words, we question the sparsity assumption of realistic UWB multipath channels. For that, we particularly investigate the effects of IEEE 802.15.4a UWB channel models and the selection of channel resolution both on channel estimation and system performances from a practical implementation point of view. In addition, we compare the channel estimation performance with the Cramer‐Rao lower bound for various channel models and number of measurements. The study shows that although UWB channel models for residential environments (e.g., channel models CM1 and CM2) exhibit a sparse structure yielding a reasonable channel estimation performance, channel models for industrial environments (e.g., CM8) may not be treated as having a sparse structure due to multipaths arriving densely. Furthermore, it is shown that the sparsity increased by channel resolution can improve the channel estimation performance significantly at the expense of increased receiver processing.

A multipath interference cancellation technique for WCDMA downlink receivers

In this paper, we present a simple interference cancellation technique for the downlink of wideband code‐division multiple‐access (WCDMA) systems in multipath environment. With the same knowledge required by a RAKE receiver, the present method acts as an equalizer and cancels the interfering multipath signals from the received signal to retrieve the orthogonality property of the received signal. The present receiver has a simple structure and it has significant performance gain against the RAKE receiver. In addition, the noise enhancement is negligible when there is a line of sight path or the channel power delay profile has an exponential decaying form. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

BLIND CHANNEL ESTIMATION IN DELAY DIVERSITY FOR FREQUENCY SELECTIVE CHANNELS1

Delay diversity is an effective transmit diversity technique to combat adverse effects of fading. Thus far, previous work in delay diversity assumed that perfect estimates of current channel fading conditions are available at the receiver and training symbols are required to estimate the channel from the transmitter to the receiver. However, increasing the number of the antennas increases the required training interval and reduces the available time with in whichdata may be transmitted. Learning the channel coefficients becomes increasingly difficult for the frequency selective channels. In this paper, with the subspace method and the delay character of delay diversity, a channel estimation method is proposed, which does not use training symbols. It addresses the transmit diversity for a frequency selective channel from a single carrier perspective in the form of a simple equivalent flat fading model. Monte Carlo simulations give the performance of channel estimation and the performance comparison of our channel-estimation-based detector with decision feedback equalization, which uses the perfect channel information.

在无线通信系统的实际传输中,当窃听用户距离合法接受者足够近,或者位于合法接收机信号的无线电波路径上时,就会出现主信道与窃听信道相关的场景。为此我们考虑一个多输入单输出,并且存在单天线被动窃听者的无线通信系统,研究了当基站采用最大比技术发射技术发送信号时,相关对系统性能的影响。推导了安全中断概率与平均安全容量的闭合表达式。数值仿真结果表明:（1）当主信道的信道质量高于窃听信道时,较低的相关对系统安全中断概率性能影响不大,然而强相关却能够带来更低的安全中断概率;（2）该相关对系统平均安全容量始终是有害的,且随着相关程度的增强,最大比发射技术相对于天线选择的优势逐渐变小。
