Sequential packing algorithm for channel assignment under cochanneland adjacent-channel interference constraint

Generally, the channel-assignment problem (CAP) for mobile cellular systems is solved by graph-coloring algorithms. These algorithms, though sometimes can yield an optimal solution, do not supply any information on whether an optimal solution has been found or bow far away it is from the optimum. In view of these undesirable features, two relevant results are presented. First, a lower bound for the minimum number of channels required to satisfy a given call-traffic demand is derived. This lower bound is tighter than the existing ones under certain conditions and can be used as a supplement for other approximate algorithms. Second, we propose an efficient heuristic algorithm to solve this problem. Although the CAP is nondeterministic polynomial (NP) complete in general, our algorithm provides an optimal solution for a special class of network topologies. For the general case, promising results are obtained, and numerical examples show that our algorithm has a better performance than many existing algorithms     

Performance of an in-band adjacent-channel DAB system forfrequency-selective Rayleigh and Ricean slow fading channels underanalog FM interference

In support of the 1995-1997 DAB (digital audio broadcasting) testing conducted by the NRSC (National Radio Systems Committee), an IBAC (in-band adjacent-channel) scheme was developed by AT&T. Although not for use in the United States, bit error rate (BER) system performance under both fading environments and the existing analog FM broadcasting is important to quantify. This is because there may still exist other countries and environments where an IBAC approach to DAB is feasible and economical. Given this situation, an IBAC simulation model has been developed to allow for a performance analysis study within the mobile reception environment, which is dominated by Rayleigh and Ricean fading statistics. This paper presents the simulation results for coherent quadrature phase-shift-keying (QPSK) with nonlinear equalization for both frequency-selective Rayleigh and Ricean slow fading channel environments, along with co-channel, 1st-adjacent and 2nd-adjacent analog FM interference. The results indicate that for a country where spectrum availability dictates an IBAC solution, this approach may perform well under various fading and interference environments     

Polarization-insensitive frequency-shift-keying optical heterodynereceiver using discriminator demodulation

A polarization-state-independent binary frequency-shift-keying optical heterodyne receiver, achieved by splitting the received signal between two orthogonal polarization axes and combining the signals after demodulation, is described. The authors consider various receiver configurations, using a discriminator with a limiter for applications in which received-signal-envelope fluctuations cannot be ignored, and without a limiter when the fluctuations are negligible. For applications that require the limiter, a diversity method or a variable-gain limiter that improves the performance of the limiter/discriminator receiver is proposed. Numerical results indicate that with diversity and a limiter/discriminator structure, polarization independence can be achieved with a system performance which is nearly that of an ideal receiver. Using a discriminator without a limiter, when there is no source of envelope fluctuations other than those due to Gaussian noise, the receiver performance degradation compared to the ideal baseline receiver is 0.5 dB     

Ultra-wide-band radio signal generation using optical frequency-shift-keying technique

We proposed a novel technique for generation of micro- or millimeter-wave pulses using optical frequency-shift-keying (FSK) modulation. FSK signals were obtained by an integrated four optical phase modulators. The pulses can be obtained as an optical beat of two spectral components, during transient FSK state which is shorter than 100 ps.

Characterization of an optical frequency-shift-keying transmitter based on carrier-suppressed phase modulation

We experimentally characterize an optical frequency-shift-keying transmitter based on optical carrier-suppressed phase modulation. Only one laser source is needed to generate an optical FSK signal. The demonstration of 10-Gb/s FSK signal generation and 50-km transmission verified the improved performance of the proposed transmitter, compared with the previous two-laser schemes. To further reduce the complexity of the transmitter, the phase modulator is omitted and a single MZM modulator is used for both optical carrier-suppression (OCS) and phase modulation. This simplified structure is verified by simulation, implying the feasibility that a FSK transmitter can be constructed with only one laser source and one modulator.

Suppression of adjacent-channel, cochannel, and intersymbolinterference by equalizers and linear combiners

We describe the ability of a linear equalizer/combiner or decision-feedback equalizer to suppress all received adjacent-channel, intersymbol, and cochannel interference. The emphasis is on values among transmitter bandwidth, receiver bandwidth, carrier spacing, and antenna diversity which provide the best opportunities for interference suppression. Through analyses of the number of degrees of freedom and constraints in generalized zero-forcing equalizers, and partial comparisons to calculations of equalizer minimum-mean-square performance, four results are obtained. First, with one antenna and a linear equalizer, arbitrarily large receiver bandwidths allow for marginal improvements in spectral efficiency through decreased carrier spacing, because the carrier spacing cannot be reduced to a value below the symbol rate without incurring unsuppressible interference. Second, large receiver bandwidths assist multiple antennas in improving the spectral efficiency in that carrier spacing values may go below the symbol rate, even in the presence of cochannel interference. Third, the use of equalizers and linear combiners, together with large receiver bandwidths, allows large transmitter bandwidths to be used. Fourth, for cochannel interference and intersymbol interference, the number of interferers that may be suppressible by a generalized zero-forcing linear equalizer/combiner increases linearly with the product of the number of antennas and the truncated integer ratio of the total bandwidth to the symbol rate     

Ten-to-twenty gigabit-per-second modulation performance of1.5-μm distributed feedback lasers for frequency-shift-keying systems

The frequency modulation (FM) and amplitude modulation (AM) responses of a 1.5-μm distributed feedback (DFB) laser were measured to 15 GHz. At 9-mW output power, the magnitude of the FM response was flat out to 12 GHz, and there was a 15-25-ps delay between the FM and AM responses. Computer simulation techniques indicate that the measured FM response is adequate to produce good eye patterns for frequency-shift-keying modulation at data rates up to 20 Gb/s. The high-speed frequency-shift-keying modulation capability of this 1.5-μm DFB laser was experimentally confirmed at 11 Gb/s

Criminal interference

The article discusses the URSI Council's resolution on criminal activities using electromagnetic tools adopted at the Toronto General Assembly (August 1999). Criminal activities using electromagnetic tools are an outgrowth of more familiar disciplines: electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electromagnetic interference (EMI). In this case, however, the terrorist produces the offending currents or radiation intentionally. Accidental radiation can cause severe and inopportune damage to electronics, so those fields or more severe field levels can certainly also be intentionally impressed on vulnerable equipment. The EMC community must be prepared to deal with new threats as they emerge     

Method of interference cancellation based on space-time code in MIMO interference channels

The authors in this article investigated how to cancel multi-user interference with low feedback amount over 3-user multiple input multiple output(MIMO) interference channel using space-time code and precoders. Space-time block code with coding rate 2 was designed, also zero vectors were introduced into each codeword. The multi-user interference is mitigated by pre-coding at the transmitters and nonlinear operation and unidirectional cooperation link at the receivers. Compared with the existing scheme for the same scene, the proposed scheme greatly reduces feedback amount and improves the sum degrees of freedom(DOF). Simulation demonstrates the validity of the proposed scheme.

Intercarrier interference in MIMO OFDM

In this paper, we examine multicarrier transmission over time-varying channels. We first develop a model for such a transmission scheme and focus particularly on multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). Using this method, we analyze the impact of time variation within a transmission block (time variation could arise both from Doppler spread of the channel and from synchronization errors). To mitigate the effects of such time variations, we propose a time-domain approach. We design ICI-mitigating block linear filters, and we examine how they are modified in the context of space-time block-coded transmissions. Our approach reduces to the familiar single-tap frequency-domain equalizer when the channel is block time invariant. Channel estimation in rapidly time-varying scenarios becomes critical, and we propose a scheme for estimating channel parameters varying within a transmission block. Along with the channel estimation scheme, we also examine the issue of pilot tone placement and show that in time-varying channels, it may be better to group pilot tones together into clumps that are equispaced onto the FFT grid; this placement technique is in contrast to the common wisdom for time-invariant channels. Finally, we provide numerical results illustrating the performance of these schemes, both for uncoded and space-time block-coded systems.
