Quality of Service Aware Inter Carrier Interference Mitigation and Antenna Selection Schemes for Beyond 4G Systems

Future broadband wireless communication systems demand high quality of service (QoS) for anytime anywhere multimedia applications. The standards which use orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) coupled with multi input multi output (MIMO) are expected to rule the future wireless world. Time selective nature of the channel introduces inter carrier interference (ICI), which is the major performance limiting parameter in OFDM based systems. ICI causes loss in spectral efficiency and results in poor bit error rate (BER) performance, affecting the QoS of MIMO-OFDM systems. The conventional single input single output (SISO)-OFDM-flexible subcarrier spacing (FSS) system offers better performance than the fixed subcarrier spacing systems in terms of ICI mitigation. But BER and spectral efficiency performance of SISO-OFDM-FSS is not good enough to satisfy the requirements of future wireless broadband services. To improve the BER performance, SISO-OFDM system is replaced by space frequency block coded (SFBC)-OFDM system, which adds spatial and frequency diversity benefits to the conventional system. More number of antennas in the MIMO scheme increases the hardware cost, computational complexity and percentage of overhead. In the present study, to improve the spectral efficiency and to reduce the complexity and cost, optimal transmit antenna selection (OTAS) is combined with the SFBC-OFDM-FSS scheme. The simulation results prove that the proposed SFBC-OFDM-FSS-OTAS scheme offers better QoS than the conventional SISO-OFDM-FSS scheme.

Autonomous Schemes for Inter-cell Interference Coordination in the Downlink of LTE Systems

Inter-cell interference (ICI) is one of the key challenges that limit the performance of Long Term Evolution and Long Term Evolution Advanced cellular systems. One approach to deal with ICI is through interference avoidance. Unlike static avoidance techniques where a-priori frequency planning and/or explicit inter-cell coordination is used, dynamic avoidance techniques rely on adapting its frequency planning and allocation based on the current state of the network. However, this improvement in performance comes with the cost of an increased complexity due to the coordination and alignments needed among the base stations (eNB) to manage and allocate channels among the users. Accordingly, autonomous ICI coordination techniques are receiving much interest among the various interference avoidance techniques. In this paper, we propose an autonomous self-adaptive scheme (SA, for short) for radio resource management and interference coordination. We then extend the proposed scheme to become self-adaptive power-aware (SAPA) in order to optimize and reduce the transmission power of the eNBs. A key feature in the proposed schemes is that all computations are independent of the number of users and cells in the network. This allows the proposed schemes to adapt to networks of any size and with an arbitrary number of users. Extensive simulation confirms that the proposed SA scheme ensures efficient frequency reuse patterns that lead to significant performance improvements in the throughput of the edge users without affecting other users. Moreover, the SAPA scheme achieves significant improvement in the power efficiency, while maintaining the throughput enhancements achieved by the SA scheme for both center and edge users.

SNR Analysis of OFDM Systems in the Presence of Carrier Frequency Offset for Fading Channels

This letter analyzes the effect of the carrier frequency offset on orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems for multipath fading channels. A simple approximate expression for the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is derived. This approximate expression is shown to be an upper bound of the average SNR for flat fading channels and an exact expression for the AWGN channel. The approximate average SNR expression is validated using Monte Carlo simulation for both flat fading channels and frequency-selective fading channels     

Quality of Protection in Cloud-Assisted Cognitive Machine-to-Machine Communications for Industrial Systems

Cloud-assisted cognitive machine-to-machine co- mmunications (CM2M) is a new paradigm to improve the mobile services, which have drawn considerable attention in industry and academia. In this paper, we consider the quality of protection (QoP) of information transmission in cloud-assisted CM2M communications. In such an environment, the secondary M2M system intends to share the primary spectrum on the condition that the secondary transmitter (ST) has to relay the primary message. However, the ST is a low-energy device which adopts the energy harvesting technique to power itself. In particular, we focus on secure information transmission for the primary system when the secondary users (SUs) are the potential eavesdroppers. We aim to jointly design power splitting and secure beamforming to maximize the secondary M2M system data rate subject to the secrecy requirement of the primary system and the ST power constraint. To solve this non-convex problem, we propose a computationally efficient two-stage optimization approach. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed scheme achieves a significant transmission rate of the secondary M2M system while provides a high secrecy rate for the primary system compared to the scheme without energy harvesting.

ICI Mitigation by Estimation of Double Carrier Frequency Offsets in High-Speed-Railway Communication Systems for Smart Cities

The urbanization and the fourth industrial revolution lead to the explosion of smart cities. One of the most prior problems to solve in digital cities is transportation infrastructures and high speed railway (HSR) is an effective solution. In communication aspect of HSR, the passenger’s demand and transportation management networks require high-speed data services with reliable connections. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a modulation method in the advanced communication systems to provide broadband communications services. OFDM is substantial against inter-symbol-interference due to long symbol duration, but it is very sensitive to doppler effect that happens when the speed of the train is getting much faster. In addition, inter-carrier interference (ICI) caused by high doppler frequency shift has a severe impact on OFDM in case of high channel variations. In this paper, we propose an ICI mitigation method by utilizing the estimation and pre-compensation of high doppler shifts in HSR communication systems for smart cities. The estimate of the doppler shift is based on a preamble frame of data in communication link between EnodeB and user equipment. The simulation results show that the performance of system has been improved using the proposed model.

Performance of Reservation in Call Admission Control Schemes for Code-Division Multiple Access Systems with Nonuniform Traffic Distribution Among Cells

In this paper, we propose the reservation type call admission control (CAC) scheme to resolve the intercell unbalanced traffic problem. Differently from a conventional CAC scheme where the system resource is fully allocated to the local users in the home cell, the proposed CAC scheme reserves a small portion of the system resource for new calls occurring in the neighboring cells instead of fully allowing the local users in the home cell to occupy the system resource. As a result, the proposed CAC scheme improves the overall call blocking probability when the traffic is nonuniformly distributed among cells. More specifically, the proposed CAC scheme improves the overall call blocking probability by 15% when one cell has 67% more traffic than its surrounding cells.     

Frequency-Domain Carrier Frequency and Symbol Timing Offsets Estimation for Offset QAM Filter Bank Multicarrier Systems in Uplink of Multiple Access Networks

In this paper, we study carrier frequency offset (CFO) and symbol timing offset (STO) estimation in the uplink of multiuser offset QAM filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) communication systems. A low-complexity frequency-domain CFO estimator using periodical training sequence is proposed. Also a good estimate of STO is obtained by maximizing the energy of subcarriers subject to training sequence at the output of analysis filter bank. Furthermore we derive the theoretical MSE for the proposed CFO estimator. Computer simulations show that the derived MSE matches the simulated MSE closely. Compared with state-of-the-art time domain estimator, the proposed estimator achieves better performance with a lower computational complexity.
