中继网络中减少反馈的多用户调度算法

针对多用户中继网络中上行反馈负荷过大的问题,本文提出了一种减少信道状态信息反馈的半分布式调度算法（RRFD）。基于反馈中断概率及总用户数,基站与中继分别设置信道状态反馈门限。每一调度周期内,通过与门限的比较,用户决定是否反馈相应链路信息,基站根据用户反馈情况决定系统采用何种传输模式。文中还对AF协议下采用该算法时的反馈用户数及平均可达速率等性能指标进行了理论推导。仿真结果表明,系统性能与数学推导相一致,与此同时,本文提出的算法可极大程度（90%以上）的减少系统反馈量,并显著降低了系统反馈中断概率,减小了容量损失。

A Joint Evaluation of Energy-Efficient Downlink Scheduling and Partial CQI Feedback for LTE Video Transmission

A green cellular technology is proposed to optimize the energy and spectrum resources. Such optimization will require perfect channel state information at the transmitting base station. However, reporting the channel status of the entire bandwidth requires huge undesirable feedback overhead. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to optimize the energy and bandwidth resources while maintaining quality-of-service at the downlink when a partial feedback is considered. In this paper, a modified downlink scheduler based on a Packet Prediction Mechanism (PPM) is conducted at the eNodeB to optimize the energy and spectrum resources. On the user equipment side, a partial channel feedback scheme based on an adaptive feedback threshold is developed. A primary concern of this feedback scheme is to reduce the uplink signaling overhead without a substantial loss in downlink performances. Finally, the downlink packet scheduling and the partial feedback are jointly evaluated to further enhance the system performance. Based on a system-level simulation results, the proposed energy-efficient scheduling with partial feedback has achieved an improvement in EE of up to 79% compared to the PPM scheduler. Besides, it minimizes the degradation caused by the partial channel quality indicator feedback. Thus, the proposed two-sided algorithm gives the best tradeoff between uplink and downlink performances.     

单频网多播系统中的开环半动态功率分配算法

在单频网多播传输中,传统的全反馈动态功率分配数算法需要根据每个时隙反馈的用户瞬时信道信息进行实时的调整,所以造成了资源分配频率快、上行反馈开销大的缺点。为了克服这个缺点,提出了一个低复杂度、没有用户反馈的单频网多播开环半动态功率分配算法。首先在各小区等功率分配的假设下,根据单频网的形状信息算出各小区等价信道增益,然后再根据这个增益值,实现满足速率需求情况下的各小区功率分配。仿真结果显示,与全反馈的动态功率分配算法相比,该算法以一小部分性能损失为代价,大大减少了单频网的上行反馈和资源分配的开销,因此更适用于实际的单频网多播系统。     

基于双向中继和网络编码的NOMA网络性能分析

Feedback of Downlink Channel State Information Based on Superimposed Coding

In closed-loop FDD MIMO system, downlink channel state information (DL-CSI) is usually feedback to base station in forms of codebook or CQI, both of which aim at lowering the feedback quantity at the cost of limited feedback precision and heavy processing complexity at mobile side. Meanwhile, the recently proposed direct channel feedback method incurs great system overhead due to its exclusive occupation of uplink bandwidth resources. We propose a low-cost feedback method for DL-CSI, which spreads unquantized and uncoded DL-CSI and superimposes it onto uplink user data sequences (UL-US). Exclusive occupation of system resources by DL-CSI can thus be avoided. Due to spreading, DL-CSI can be estimated accurately with little power allocation at the cost of some UL-US's SER performance     

Opportunistic Feedback for Multiuser MIMO Systems With Linear Receivers

A novel multiuser scheduling and feedback strategy for the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) downlink is proposed in this paper. It achieves multiuser diversity gain without substantial feedback requirements. The proposed strategy uses per-antenna scheduling at the base station, which maps each transmit antenna at the base station (equivalently, a spatial channel) to a user. Each user has a number of receive antennas that is greater than or equal to the number of transmit antennas at the base station. Zero-forcing receivers are deployed by each user to decode the transmitted data streams. In this system, the base station requires users' channel quality on each spatial channel for scheduling. An opportunistic feedback protocol is proposed to reduce the feedback requirements. The proposed protocol uses a contention channel that consists of a fixed number of feedback minislots to convey channel state information. Feedback control parameters including the channel quality threshold and the random access feedback probability are jointly adjusted to maximize the average throughput performance of this system. Multiple receive antennas at the base station are used on the feedback channel to allow decoding multiple feedback messages sent simultaneously by different users. This further reduces the bandwidth of the feedback channel. Iterative search algorithms are proposed to solve the optimization for selection of these parameters under both scenarios that the cumulative distribution functions of users are known or unknown to the base station     

面向服务质量的RIS辅助的多用户NOMA系统功率分配方案

可重构智能超表面(RIS)可被视为通信网络中具有特殊功能的“中继”来配合非正交多址接入(NOMA)系统构建一种协同的信息传输方案。考虑到未来物联网(IoT)场景下不同用户设备对服务质量(QoS)的不同需求,该文提出一种RIS辅助的多用户NOMA通信系统模型,并针对两类用户(信息用户和能量用户)的QoS需求设计了一种基于迭代优化的功率分配方法。该方法通过联合设计RIS相移矩阵、基站端波束赋形以及NOMA系统串行干扰消除顺序来最小化系统的总发射功率,以全面减轻通信系统中基站的能耗负担。仿真结果表明,与无RIS的场景相比,RIS辅助的NOMA系统可有效减小基站的能耗;在有RIS的场景下,所提功率分配方法的能耗明显低于RIS端随机选择相位的方式和基站端直接采用迫零波束赋形的方式。     

Energy-efficient relay selection and optimal relay location in cooperative cellular networks with asymmetric traffic

Energy-efficient communication is an important requirement for mobile relay networks due to the limited battery power of user terminals. This paper considers energy-efficient relaying schemes through selection of mobile relays in cooperative cellular systems with asymmetric traffic. The total energy consumption per information bit of the battery-powered terminals, i. e. , the mobile station(MS)and the relay, is derived in theory. In the joint uplink and downlink relay selection(JUDRS)scheme we proposed, the relay which minimizes the total energy consumption is selected. Additionally, the energy-efficient cooperation regions are investigated, and the optimal relay location is found for cooperative cellular systems with asymmetric traffic. The results reveal that the MS-relay and the relay-base station(BS)channels have different influence over relay selection decisions for optimal energy-efficiency. Information theoretic analysis of the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff(DMT)demonstrates that the proposed scheme achieves full spatial diversity in the quantity of cooperating terminals in this network. Finally, numerical results further confirm a significant energy efficiency gain of the proposed algorithm comparing to the previous best worse channel selection and best harmonic mean selection algorithms.     

Space-time communication for OFDM with implicit channel feedback

We consider wideband communication (e.g., using orthogonal frequency-division multiplexed (OFDM) systems) over a typical cellular "downlink," in which both the base station and the mobile may have multiple antennas, but the number of antennas at the mobile is assumed to be small. Implicit channel feedback can play a powerful role in such systems, especially for outdoor channels, which typically exhibit narrow spatial spreads. A summary of our findings is as follows: a) Implicit channel feedback regarding the covariance matrix for the downlink space-time channel can be obtained, without any power or bandwidth overhead, by suitably averaging uplink channel measurements across frequency. Since this approach relies on statistical reciprocity, it applies to both time-division duplex (TDD) and frequency-division duplex (FDD) systems. Using such covariance feedback yields significantly better performance at lower complexity than conventional space-time or space-frequency codes, which do not employ feedback; b) We provide guidelines for optimizing antenna spacing in systems with covariance feedback. Theoretical investigation of a hypothetical system with completely controllable channel eigenvalues shows that the optimal number of channel eigenmodes is roughly matched to the (small) number of receive antenna elements. Thus, while antenna elements in conventional systems without feedback should be spaced far apart in order to ensure uncorrelated responses, the optimal antenna spacing with covariance feedback is much smaller, thereby concentrating the channel energy into a small number of eigenmodes.
