互耦效应对超大规模MIMO天线系统信道容量的影响

超大规模多输入多输出(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output,MIMO)天线系统是6G的关键技术,由于天线单元间距很小,多个天线单元的互耦效应是影响其性能的因素之一。建立了基于石墨烯基贴片天线阵列-子阵列架构的超大规模MIMO天线系统,推导出了互耦效应影响下的信道容量表达式。通过电磁场数值计算仿真了超大规模MIMO天线系统的信道容量,结果表明,在不考虑互耦效应时,超大规模MIMO天线系统的信道容量与子阵列天线单元数、子阵列数以及发射机功率正相关;在互耦效应的影响下,系统的信道容量降低,互耦效应的强弱与子阵列天线单元的间距有关,天线单元间间距越小,相邻天线间的互耦效应越明显,系统的信道容量越小。该仿真结果可以为6G中超大规模MIMO天线系统的设计提供参考。

3×3多天线系统衰落相关与信道容量研究

为分析天线间距和散射角等信道物理参数对多输入多输出系统信道容量的影响,提出了一种相关衰落环境中信道容量的分析方法。该方法基于接收均匀圆阵构建了蕴含信道物理参数的衰落相关矩阵。并由此详细推导了3×3多天线系统信道容量的闭式表达。结果表明,相关矩阵特征值的个数和大小决定了系统信道容量的大小。该方法回避了已有算法需求取相关衰落信道特征值概率密度函数的问题,降低了运算量,可以被推广到任意收发天线数的多输入多输出和多输入多输出-频分复用系统。仿真结果表明,天线间距增大,信道容量随之增大。但是当天线间距增大到衰落相关的第一个过零点时,信道容量达到最大值,再增大天线间距对信道容量影响很小。散射角越大,信道容量收敛到最大值速率越快。

匙孔信道容量及中断概率分析

在某些多输入多输出（MIMO）衰落环境下,虽然发射或者接收信号不相关,但是系统的信道容量依然很低,这种现象称之为匙孔（Keyhole）效应。针对匙孔衰落MIMO信道,在任意的收发天线数目下,分析了Keyhole信道容量以及中断概率。研究结果表明,匙孔信道的最大分集增益由发射或接收天线数目的最小值决定。

3D MIMO系统下水平和垂直维联合预编码的研究

第五代(5G)移动通信网络将会在很大程度上提高无线通信的速率。由于多入多出系统(MIMO)能够满足5G网络中对信息速率越来越高的要求,现在正受到广泛的关注。然而,传统意义的二维(2D)MIMO技术仅仅能控制水平维的波束。为了满足5G的需求,需要引入能同时考虑水平维和垂直维波束的三维(3D)MIMO技术。本文基于3D MIMO信道模型,在分析3D MIMO信道相关性的基础上,针对发射相关和接收相关矩阵在水平维和垂直维的分解,提出了一种利用3D MIMO信道相关性的有限反馈预编码方案。并在此基础上,结合2D MIMO信道下的DFT码本和Grassmannian码本,提出了两种新的3D MIMO信道下的码本。实验结果表明,提出的3D MIMO预编码方案整体性能优于传统2D MIMO和现有的3D MIMO预编码方案。在3D MIMO系统中,由于可以动态调节天线的下倾角,故充分发掘了空间三维自由度。3D MIMO预编码技术减小小区间干扰,增加了系统容量,有效地提高了整个通信系统的性能。      

Multilevel expansion of the sparse-matrix canonical grid method fortwo-dimensional random rough surfaces

Wave scattering from two-dimensional (2-D) random rough surfaces up to several thousand square wavelengths has been previously analyzed using the sparse-matrix canonical grid (SMCG) method. The success of the SMCG method highly depends on the roughness of the random surface for a given surface area. We present a multilevel expansion algorithm to overcome this limitation. The proposed algorithm entails the use of a three-dimensional (3-D) canonical grid. This grid is generated by a uniform discretization of the vertical displacement along the height (z-axis) of the rough surface in addition to the uniform sampling of the rough surface along the x-y plane. The Green's function is expanded about the 3-D canonical grid for the far interactions. The trade-off in computer memory requirements and CPU time between the neighborhood distance and the number of discretization levels along the x-axis are discussed for both perfectly electric conducting (PEC) and lossy dielectric random rough surfaces. Ocean surfaces of the Durden-Vesecky (1985) spectrum with various bandlimits are also studied

Channel Magnifying Limited Feedback Technique for FDD Massive MIMO Systems

A limited feedback system, so-called, channel magnifying (CM) is proposed for a downlink (DL) frequency-division duplex (FDD) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. Although massive MIMO system has received significant research interest as a key technology for beyond 4G wireless communications systems, it has a number of issues that needs to be technically addressed. Among such issues is the difficulty of acquiring channel state information at transmitter for an FDD massive MIMO system which cannot exploit channel reciprocity as in a time-division duplex system. The proposed CM technique makes it possible to support a few user equipments in DL FDD massive MIMO system by finding a balance between spatial resources and channel quantization error (CQE). By choosing a subchannel with low CQE, CM can secure multiplexing gain at high SNR based on a fixed size codebook. Two types of subchannel indicator alignment (SIA) schemes are introduced for efficient interference nulling for the proposed CM technique. Specifically, we discuss how to maximize the sumrate of CM through genie added SIA and minimum CQE based SIA. Simulation results show that the sum rate of the proposed CM has a higher multiplexing gain than that of random vector quantization, especially when the number of transmit antennas is sufficiently large.     

Multiuser MIMO OFDM Based TDD/TDMA for Next Generation Wireless Communication Systems

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless technology in combination with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO OFDM) is an attractive air-interface solution for next-generation wireless local area networks (WLANs), wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs), and fourth-generation mobile cellular wireless systems. In this paper, one multiuser MIMO OFDM systems with TDD/TDMA was proposed for next-generation wireless mobile communications, i.e., TDD/TDMA 4G, which can avoid or alleviate the specific limitations of existing techniques designed for multiuser MIMO OFDM systems in broadband wireless mobile channel scenarios, i.e., bad performance and extreme complexity of multiuser detectors for rank-deficient multiuser MIMO OFDM systems with CDMA as access modes, extreme challenges of spatial MIMO channel estimators in rank-deficient MIMO OFDM systems, and exponential growth complexity of optimal sub-carrier allocations for OFDMA-based MIMO OFDM systems. Furthermore, inspired from the Steiner channel estimation method in multi-user CDMA uplink wireless channels, we proposed a new design scheme of training sequence in time domain to conduct channel estimation. Training sequences of different transmit antennas can be simply obtained by truncating the circular extension of one basic training sequence, and the pilot matrix assembled by these training sequences is one circular matrix with good reversibility. A novel eigenmode transmission was also given in this paper, and data symbols encoded by space–time codes can be steered to these eigenmodes similar to MIMO wireless communication systems with single-carrier transmission. At the same time,, an improved water-filling scheme was also described for determining the optimal transmit powers for orthogonal eigenmodes. The classical water-filling strategy is firstly adopted to determine the optimal power allocation and correspondent bit numbers for every eigenmode, followed by a residual power reallocation to further determine the additional bit numbers carried by every eigenmode. Compared with classical water-filling schemes, it can also obtain larger throughputs via residual power allocation. At last, three typical implementation schemes of multiuser MIMO OFDM with TDMA, CDMA and OFDMA, i.e., TDD/TDMA 4G, VSF-OFCDM and FuTURE B3G TDD, were tested by numerical simulations. Results indicated that the proposed multiuser MIMO OFDM system schemes with TDD/TDMA, i.e., TDD/TDMA 4G, can achieve comparable system performance and throughputs with low complexity and radio resource overhead to that of DoCoMo MIMO VSF-OFCDM and FuTURE B3G TDD.     

Numerical Simulation Bistatic Scattering from Three-Dimensional Conducting Rough Surface with UV Multilevel Partitioning Method Using Pulse Vector Basic Function

Vector wave three-dimensional (3D) conducting rough surface scattering problem solved by a UV method with multilevel partitioning procession (UV-MLP) using pulse vector basic function is developed in this paper, in which pulse vector basic function is more appropriately to be used for truly describe the vector inducted currents’ distribution along 3D PEC rough surface. For a 3D conducting rough surface scattering problem, the scattering structure is partitioned into multilevel blocks. By investigating the rank in the static problem, the impedance matrix for given transmitting and receiving blocks is expressed into products of U and V matrices. The UV method is illustrated by applying to a 3D scattering problem of random conducting rough surface. Finally, numerical simulation results are carried and discussed.     

Space‐time block coding in millimeter wave large‐scale MIMO‐NOMA transmission scheme

In this paper, we introduce a new wireless system architecture using space‐time block coding schemes (STBC) and non‐orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in millimeter wave (mmWave) large‐scale MIMO systems. The proposed STBC mmWave large‐scale MIMO‐NOMA system utilizes two MIMO subarrays, transmitting data over two channel vectors to mobile users. To reduce the communication overhead and latency in the system, we utilize random beamforming with optimal coefficients at the base station and random‐near random‐far user pairing in implementing the NOMA scheme. Our results show that the proposed STBC mmWave large‐scale MIMO‐NOMA technique significantly outperforms the previous counterparts.
