An evaluation of coded wavelet for multicarrier modulation with OFDMAnoh, Kelvin O.O., Ghazaany, Tahereh S., Hussaini, Abubakar S., Abd-Alhameed, Raed, Jones, Steven M.R., Rodriguez, Jonathan January 2013 (has links)
No / Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is pronounced in wireless communication systems. Methods for improving the performance of the OFDM-based systems are mostly sought. A method of doing this involves error correction coding and another, a better multicarrier modulation kernel. In this work, convolutional error correction coding with interleaving is introduced in wavelet multicarrier modulation OFDM system (wavelet-OFDM) to improve the performance of multicarrier systems as the signal traverses the multipath and noisy transmission channels. This is compared with FFT-based multicarrier modulation (FFT-OFDM). Results show that coded wavelet-OFDM saves more than a half of the transmit power than the uncoded wavelet. Also it will be shown that, the interleaved and non-interleaved coded wavelet-OFDM well outperform interleaved coded and non-interleaved coded FFT-OFDM systems respectively.

Transmitter and receiver design for inherent interference cancellation in MIMO filter-bank based multicarrier systemsZakaria, Rostom 07 November 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Multicarrier (MC) Modulation attracts a lot of attention for high speed wireless transmissions because of its capability to cope with frequency selective fading channels turning the wideband transmission link into several narrowband subchannels whose equalization, in some situations, can be performed independently and in a simple manner. Nowadays, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with the cyclic prefix (CP) insertion is the most widespread modulation among all MC modulations, and this thanks to its simplicity and its robustness against multipath fading using the cyclic prefix. Systems or standards such as ADSL or IEEE802.11a have already implemented the CP-OFDM modulation. Other standards like IEEE802.11n combine CP-OFDM and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) in order to increase the bit rate and to provide a better use of the channel spatial diversity. Nevertheless, CP-OFDM technique causes a loss of spectral efficiency due to the CP as it contains redundant information. Moreover, the rectangular prototype filter used in CP-OFDM has a poor frequency localization. This poor frequency localization makes it difficult for CP-OFDM systems to respect stringent specifications of spectrum masks.To overcome these drawbacks, filter-bank multicarrier (FBMC) was proposed as an alternative approach to CP-OFDM. Indeed, FBMC does not need any CP, and it furthermore offers the possibility to use different time-frequency well-localized prototype filters which allow much better control of the out-of-band emission. In the literature we find several FBMC systems based on different structures. In this thesis, we focus on the Saltzberg's scheme called OFDM/OQAM (or FBMC/OQAM). The orthogonality constraint for FBMC/OQAM is relaxed being limited only to the real field while for OFDM it has to be satisfied in the complex field. Consequently, one of the characteristics of FBMC/OQAM is that the demodulated transmitted symbols are accompanied by interference terms caused by the neighboring transmitted data in time-frequency domain. The presence of this interference is an issue for some MIMO schemes and until today their combination with FBMC remains an open problem.The aim of this thesis is to study the combination between FBMC and MIMO techniques, namely spatial multiplexing with ML detection. In the first part, we propose to analyze different intersymbol interference (ISI) cancellation techniques that we adapt to the FBMC/OQAM with MIMO context. We show that, in some cases, we can cope with the presence of the inherent FBMC interference and overcome the difficulties of performing ML detection in spatial multiplexing with FBMC/OQAM. After that, we propose a modification in the conventional FBMC/OQAM modulation by transmitting complex QAM symbols instead of OQAM ones. This proposal allows to reduce considerably the inherent interference but at the expense of the orthogonality condition. Indeed, in the proposed FBMC/QAM,the data symbol and the inherent interference term are both complex. Finally, we introduce a novel FBMC scheme and a transmission strategy in order to avoid the inherent interference terms. This proposed scheme (that we call FFT-FBMC) transforms the FBMC system into an equivalent system formulated as OFDM regardless of some residual interference. Thus, any OFDM transmission technique can be performed straightforwardly to the proposed FBMC scheme with a corresponding complexity growth. We develop the FFT-FBMC in the case of single-input single-output (SISO) configuration. Then, we extend its application to SM-MIMO configuration with ML detection and Alamouti coding scheme.

Coexistence of communication systems based on enhanced multi-carrier waveforms with legacy OFDM Networks / Coexistence de systèmes de communication basés sur des formes d'ondes multi-porteuses avancées avec des réseaux OFDM préexistantBodinier, Quentin 29 November 2017 (has links)
Les futurs réseaux sans fil devront être conçus pour répondre aux besoins hétérogènes de systèmes entièrement différents. De nouveaux services soumis à des contraintes variées coexisteront avec les utilisateurs actuels sur la même bande de fréquences. L'OFDM, la couche physique utilisée par les systèmes actuels, souffre d’un mauvais confinement spectral et ne permet pas cette coexistence. De nombreuses nouvelles formes d'onde avec une localisation spectrale améliorée ont donc été proposées. Nous étudions la coexistence de nouveaux systèmes basés sur ces formes d'onde avec des utilisateurs OFDM préexistant. Nous fournissons la première analyse théorique et expérimentale de l'interférence inter-système qui se produit dans ces scenarios. Nous appliquons ensuite cette analyse pour évaluer les performances de différentes formes d'ondes avancées et nous étudions finalement les performances d'un réseau où des utilisateurs cellulaires OFDM coexistent avec des paires D2D utilisant l'une des formes d'ondes améliorées étudiées. / Future wireless networks are envisioned to accommodate the heterogeneous needs of entirely different systems. New services obeying various constraints will coexist with legacy cellular users in the same frequency band. This coexistence is hardly achievable with OFDM, the physical layer used by current systems, because of its poor spectral containment. Thus, a myriad of multi-carrier waveforms with enhanced spectral localization have been proposed for future wireless devices. In this thesis, we investigate the coexistence of new systems based on these waveforms with legacy OFDM users. We provide the first theoretical and experimental analysis of the inter-system interference that arises in those scenarii. Then, we apply this analysis to evaluate the merits of different enhanced waveforms and we finally investigate the performance achievable by a network composed of legacy OFDM cellular users and D2D pairs using one of the studied enhanced waveforms.

New tone reservation PAPR reduction techniques for multicarrier systems / Nouvelles techniques de réduction du PAPR pour les applications à porteuses multiplesMounzer, Ralph 15 December 2015 (has links)
La technique Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) a été adoptée par plusieurs systèmes de télécommunications et de diffusion pour sa robustesse, sa capacité à transmettre de hauts débits dans des canaux radiomobiles et pour son efficacité spectrale. Cependant, les signaux OFDM sont caractérisés par des fluctuations importantes, mesurées par le rapport de la puissance crête sur la puissance moyenne (Peak to Average Power Ratio – PAPR) du signal, qui génèrent des distorsions à la sortie de l’amplificateur non-linéaire de puissance (High Power Amplifier - HPA) et ne permettent pas de l’utiliser dans sa zone optimale afin de diminuer sa consommation énergétique. La deuxième génération de la norme Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB-T2) a notamment adopté la technique Tone Reservation (TR) de réduction du PAPR. Son principe consiste à créer un noyau, à partir d’un ensemble de sous-porteuses réservées, qui est ensuite ajouté d’une manière itérative au signal OFDM de façon à réduire les pics du signal et donc son PAPR. Dans la première partie de la thèse, différents algorithmes permettant d’améliorer les performances de cette solution TR DVT-T2 sont proposés. Un premier groupe de solutions, reposant sur la même définition du noyau, comprend : la technique Partial Oversampling and Fractional Shifted Kernels (POFSK) reposant sur un sur-échantillonnage partiel du signal, la technique Dynamic Threshold (DT) qui effectue un calcul dynamique du seuil de troncature et la technique Enhanced Peak Selection (EPS) qui améliore la sélection des pics à réduire. Le deuxième groupe de solutions comprend tout d’abord la technique Individual Carrier Multiple Peaks (ICMP) qui repose sur une nouvelle définition du noyau et utilise un calcul de phase différent permettant la réduction de plusieurs pics en même temps. La technique GICMP est une version optimisée de la technique ICMP qui, en parallélisant les opérations, permet de réduire le délai de traitement et le nombre total d’itérations. Les résultats de simulations et les mesures effectuées sur une plateforme de transmission réelle montrent que, par rapport à la version TR de DVB-T2, l’algorithme GICMP offrait notamment un gain de l’ordre de 2.5 dB en termes de Modulation Error Rate – MER ou permettait une réduction de 10 % de l’énergie consommée par l’amplificateur de puissance à performances identiques. [...] / Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been adopted by many telecommunication and broadcasting systems for its robustness, high transmission rates, mobility and bandwidth efficiency. However, OFDM signals are characterized by high power fluctuations, measured by the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR), which cause distortions at the output of the non-linear High Power Amplifier (HPA) and prevent the radio frequency designer to feed the signal at the optimal point of the HPA specifications in order to reduce the energy consumption. The second generation of Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB-T2) adopted two PAPR reduction techniques, one of them is Tone Reservation (TR). TR creates a Kernel from a reserved set of subcarriers. The kernel is then iteratively added to the OFDM signal in such a way to reduce its peaks thus reducing its PAPR. In the first part of the thesis, different algorithms offering better performances compared to the DVB-T2 TR solution are proposed. A first group of solutions introduces changes and enhancements to the TR algorithm adopted in DVB-T2 TR but keeps the same kernel definition. This group includes: the Partial Oversampling and Fractional Shifted Kernels (POFSK) technique which is based on a partial oversampling of the signal, the Dynamic Threshold (DT) technique which allows better algorithm convergence by dynamically computing the PAPR reduction threshold for every OFDM symbol, and the Enhanced Peak Selection (EPS) technique which provides additional PAPR reduction by choosing the appropriate signal peaks to reduce and the peaks to skip. The second group of solutions includes the Individual Carrier Multiple Peaks (ICMP) technique which is based on a special kernel definition that changes from one algorithm iteration to another and uses a different phase calculation approach that allows the reduction of multiple peaks at a time. GICMP is an optimized version of ICMP that allows the parallelization of iterations in such a way to reduce the processing delay and the number of algorithm iterations. The simulation results and real hardware platform measurements of the proposed algorithms showed that, compared to the DVB-T2 TR version, the GICMP algorithm allows a Modulation Error Rate – MER gain of up to 2.5 dB or a 10 % reduction in HPA consumed energy with the same performances.

On the Improvement of the Achievable bit rate in Multicarrier Communication Systems Using Signal Processing TechniquesBorna, Bahram 11 1900 (has links)
<p>With the growing demand for high data rate communication services, multi-carrier communication schemes have started to become the method of choice in many applications. In this thesis, multi-carrier communication systems are studied and various methods for improving their achievable bit rate arc proposed.</p> <p>Filtered multitone (FMT) is a multi-carrier communication scheme which is implemented using a modulated filter bank structure. In this thesis, an efficient design method for the prototype filter of the FMT system is proposed. This design method allows improvement of the achievable hit rate by efficient evaluation of the inherent trade-off between the sub channel spectral containment provided by the prototype filter and the intersymbol interference (lSI) that the filter generates. Numerical results further demonstrat.e the effectiveness of the proposed design method. The insight gained from this design is also used to determine the optimal number of subchannels in FMT systems. Moreover, since the presence of lSI in FMT subchannels outputs renders the conventional water-filling power loading algorithm suboptimal, we propose an efficient power loading algorithm for Fl\IT that enables higher achievable bit rates.</p> <p>Discrete multitone (DMT) is a popular multi-carrier communication scheme, mainly due to its rather low complexity. However. DMT suffers from poor subchannel spectral characteristics. In this thesis, a family of bi-windowed DMT transceivers is proposed that provide both improved sub channel 8pectral containment at the transmitter and improved spectral selectivity at the receiver, without requiring the cyclic prefix to be longer than the order of the channel impulse respon8e. The window8 arc designed in a channel independent manner and are con8trained to produce sub channel outputs that arc free from lSI. Furthermore, the design allows the interisubchannel interference (leI) to be controlled in such a way that it can be mitigated using a relatively simple minimum mean square error (MMSE) successive interference cancellation scheme. Numerical results demonstrate the significant gain in the achievable bit rate obtained Ly the proposed scheme.</p> / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Novel 5G-Modulation Formats and Their Application in Optical Wireless CommunicationsBahaaelden, Mohammed S. 27 May 2024 (has links)
[ES] La red de sexta generación (6G) es la solución potencial para satisfacer los requisitos exponencialmente crecientes de los servicios y aplicaciones emergentes. La plataforma 6G espera ofrecer altas velocidades de datos, conectividad ultra alta y baja latencia en función de los indicadores clave de rendimiento (KPI) requeridos. La tecnología de comunicación por luz visible (VLC) representa una tecnología clave para la red 6G, pero requiere una técnica de modulación avanzada eficiente para cumplir con dichos requisitos. En las últimas décadas, las señales ópticas basadas en el esquema de multiplexación por división de frecuencia ortogonal (OFDM) han atraído mucha atención y se han convertido en la modulación más popular entre varios esquemas de acceso multiportadora, gracias a su robustez y simplicidad frente a la cancelación por trayectos múltiples utilizando el prefijo cíclico (CP).
Una de las formas de onda más prometedoras para redes de próxima generación es la técnica de modulación Filter Bank MultiCarrier (FBMC). El principal beneficio del esquema FBMC es que no depende de CP y de un gran número de muestras de banda de guarda, por lo tanto, emplea varias funciones de pulso localizadas en el tiempo con una alta relación de supresión de lóbulos laterales, lo que permite mejorar la eficiencia espectral y el rendimiento del sistema como factores clave en las redes ópticas de próxima generación, y proporciona una buena alternativa a la técnica CP-OFDM.
Esta Tesis pretende dar un paso adelante en la propuesta de formatos de modulación para ser utilizados en sistemas VLC como tecnología habilitadora en redes 6G. Por lo tanto, se propone el sistema Flip-FBMC con un algoritmo de truncamiento para ofrecer una transmisión de alta velocidad con baja latencia Flip-FBMC mediante el uso del algoritmo de transformación ortogonal isotrópica (IOTA) y la capa PHYsical para DYnamic AccesS y filtros de radio cognitiva (PHYDYAS).
En esta Tesis se propone la ecualización multitap con el fin de mitigar la Interferencia imaginaria intrínseca (IMI) en un canal con perfiles de retardos elevado en sistemas VLC de interiores. Además, se ha mejorado rendimiento de error de las señales FBMC no coherentes mediante el análisis de la propiedad de la localización de tiempo-frecuencia con la función gaussiana extendida (EGF), donde el factor de dispersión desempeña un papel crucial en la determinación del equilibrio entre las características espectrales y la reconstrucción óptima de la calidad de la señal. Además, la Tesis proporciona el primer análisis teórico que informa de la degradación en la estimación para varios factores de clipping basada en el impacto del nivel de interferencia imaginario fuera de la zona de primer orden que no puede ser estimada mediante el preámbulo de IAM. Sin embargo, se debe enfatizar en el valor de la técnica Flip-FBMC/IAM para proporcionar el modelo unipolar en comparación con el uso del formato FBMC óptico polarizado con corriente continua (DCO-FBMC) que sufre una reducción en la estimación de la precisión.
Por lo tanto, se ha demostrado el descenso del rendimiento con el sistema DCO-FBMC debido al IMI inducido fuera de los símbolos de orden cero, y que es más evidente cuando se requieren niveles bajos de corriente DC. Desde esta perspectiva, la técnica de repetición de tramas con señales Flip-FBMC ha demostrado ser una solución importante para minimizar la interferencia inducida. Por lo tanto, en esta Tesis, la modulación Flip-FBMC con repetición de tramas y perfil de filtro PHYDYAS se propone como un candidato viable para hacer frente al rango dinámico restringido del LED, en comparación con el rendimiento de los sistemas Flip-CP-OFDM y Flip-FBMC/IAM en futuras redes 6G basadas en acceso VLC. / [CA] La xarxa de sexta generació (6G) és la solució potencial per a satisfer els requisits exponencialment creixents dels servicis i aplicacions emergents. La plataforma 6G espera oferir altes velocitats de dades, connectivitat ultra alta i baixa latència en funció dels indicadors clau de rendiment (KPI) requerits. La tecnologia de comunicació per llum visible (VLC) representa una tecnologia clau per a la xarxa 6G, però requerix una tècnica de modulació avançada eficient per a complir amb estos requisits. En les últimes dècades, els senyals òptics basats en l'esquema de multiplexació per divisió de freqüència ortogonal (OFDM) han atret molta atenció i s'han convertit en la modulació més popular entre diversos esquemes d'accés multiportadora, gràcies a la seua robustesa i simplicitat enfront de la cancel·lació per trajectes múltiples utilitzant el prefix cíclic (CP).
Una de les formes d'ona més prometedores per a xarxes de pròxima generació és la tècnica de modulació Filter Bank MultiCarrier (FBMC). El principal benefici de l'esquema FBMC és que no depén de CP i d'un gran nombre de mostres de banda de guarda, per tant, empra diverses funcions de pols localitzades en el temps amb una alta relació de supressió de lòbuls laterals, la qual cosa permet millorar l'eficiència espectral i el rendiment del sistema com a factors clau en les xarxes òptiques de pròxima generació, i proporciona una bona alternativa a la tècnica CP-OFDM.
Esta Tesi pretén fer un pas avant en la proposta de formats de modulació per a ser utilitzats en sistemes VLC com a tecnologia habilitadora en xarxes 6G. Per tant, es proposa el sistema Flip-FBMC amb un algoritme de truncament per a oferir una transmissió d'alta velocitat amb baixa latència Flip-FBMC mitjançant l'ús de l'algoritme de transformació ortogonal isotròpica (IOTA) i la capa PHYsical per a DYnamic AccesS i filtres de ràdio cognitiva (PHYDYAS).
En aquesta Tesi, es proposa l'equalització multitap per als sistemes VLC en interiors per a mitigar la interferència imaginària intrínseca (IMI) en un canal amb perfils de retards elevat.
A més, el rendiment d'error dels senyals FBMC no coherents es millora mitjançant l'anàlisi de la propietat de la localització de temps-freqüència amb la funció gaussiana estesa (EGF), on el factor de dispersió exercix un paper crucial en la determinació de l'equilibri entre les característiques espectrals i la reconstrucció òptima de la qualitat del senyal. En tal escenari, a causa del rang dinàmic limitat del díode emissor de llum (LED), la millora de la precisió de l'estimació depén dels nivells de potència dels pseudopilots amb l'ús de l'arquitectura del Mètode d'Aproximació d'Interferència (IAM) i per tant, no és adequada en sistemes VLC d'il·luminació i comunicació. A més, la Tesi proporciona la primera anàlisi teòrica que informa de la degradació en l'estimació per a diversos factors de clipping basada en l'impacte del nivell d'interferència imaginari fora de la zona de primer orde que no pot ser estimada mitjançant el preàmbul de IAM. No obstant això, s'ha d'emfatitzar en el valor de la tècnica Flip-FBMC/IAM per a proporcionar el model unipolar en comparació amb l'ús del format FBMC òptic polaritzat amb corrent continu (DCO-FBMC) que patix una reducció en l'estimació de la precisió.
Per tant, s'ha demostrat el descens del rendiment amb el sistema DCO-FBMC a causa del IMI induït fora dels símbols d'orde zero, i que és més evident quan es requerixen nivells baixos de corrent DC. Des d'esta perspectiva, la tècnica de repetició de trames amb senyals Flip-FBMC ha demostrat ser una solució important per a minimitzar la interferència induïda. Per tant, en esta Tesi, la modulació Flip-FBMC amb repetició de trames i perfil de filtre PHYDYAS es proposa com un candidat viable per a fer front al rang dinàmic restringit del LED, en comparació amb el rendiment dels sistemes Flip-CP-OFDM i Flip-FBMC/IAM en futures xarxes 6G basades en accés VLC. / [EN] The sixth generation (6G) network is the potential solution to meet the exponentially increasing requirements of the emerging services and applications. The 6G platform expects to offer high data rates, ultra-high connectivity, and low latency based on the required key performance indicators (KPIs). The visible light communication (VLC) technology represents a key technology for 6G network but requires an efficient advanced modulation technique to support such requirements. In the last decades, optical signals based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) scheme has attracted a lot of attention and become the most popular modulation among several multicarrier access schemes, thanks to its robustness and simplicity against multipath fading using the cyclic prefix (CP).
One of the most candidate waveforms that is considered as the promising modulation technique for the next generation requirements and applications is Filter Bank MultiCarrier (FBMC) multiplexing. The major benefit of FBMC scheme is non-reliance on CP and high numbers of guard band samples, thereby, it employs several well time-frequency localized pulse functions with high side-lobe suppression ratio instead, which allows enhancing the spectral efficiency and system performance as key factors in next generation optical networks, and provides a good alternative to CP-OFDM technique.
This Thesis aims to make a step forward in proposing modulation formats to be used in VLC systems as enabling technology in 6G networks. Hence, Flip-FBMC system with a truncation algorithm is proposed to offer a high-speed transmission with low latency by tackling the doubled-overhead tails at the subframes of Flip-FBMC burst by the use of the isotropic orthogonal transformation algorithm (IOTA) and PHYsical layer for DYnamic AccesS and cognitive radio (PHYDYAS) filters.
Multitap equalization is proposed in this Thesis for the sake of mitigating the intrinsic imaginary interference (IMI) over a channel with high delays profile for indoor VLC system. Moreover, the error performance of non-coherent FBMC signals is enhanced by analysing the property of time-frequency localization with Extended Gaussian Function (EGF), where the spreading factor plays a crucial role in determining the trade-off between the spectral features and optimal reconstruction of signal quality. In such scenario, due to the limited dynamic range of light emitting diode (LED), improving in the accuracy of estimation depends on the power-levels of pseudo pilots with the use of Interference Approximation Method (IAM) architecture. Thereby, the analysis reveals that IAM sequence is not suitable for a real transmission scenario due to high power of IAM over the payload data which conflicts with VLC purposes of illumination and communication simultaneously. Additionally, the Thesis provides the first theoretical analysis reporting the degradation of estimation accuracy for several clipping ratios based on the impact of imaginary interference level outside the first order neighbourhood zone that cannot be estimated by IAM preamble. However, the value of Flip-FBMC/IAM technique in providing the unipolar model must be emphasized compared to the use of Direct Current biased Optical FBMC (DCO-FBMC) format that suffers from a reduction in estimating accuracy. Thereby, the downfall performance with DCO-FBMC system has been reported because of the induced IMI that spreads out the first neighbourhood symbols, which is more evident when low levels of the added DC-bias are required.
From such perspective, the frame repetition technique with Flip-FBMC signals has been demonstrated as a major solution for minimizing the induced interference. Therefore, in this Thesis, Flip-FBMC/frame repetition with PHYDYAS profile is proposed as a viable candidate to cope with the restricted dynamic range of the LED, compared to the performance for each Flip-CP-OFDM and Flip-FBMC/IAM system in future 6G networks based on VLC access. / Bahaaelden, MS.

Equalization Algorithms And Performance Analysis In Cyclic-Prefixed Single Carrier And Multicarrier Wireless SystemsItankar, Yogendra Umesh 01 1900 (has links) (PDF)
The work reported in this thesis is divided in to two parts.
In the first part, we report a closed-form bit error rate (BER) performance analysis of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) on the uplink in the presence of carrier frequency offsets (CFOs) and/or timing offsets (TOs) of other users with respect to a desired user. We derive BER expressions using probability density function (pdf) and characteristic function approaches, for a Rician faded multi-cluster multi-path channel model that is typical of indoor ultrawideband channels and underwater acoustic channels. Numerical and simulation results show that the BER expressions derived accurately quantify the performance degradation due to non-zero CFOs and TOs.
Ultrawideband channels in indoor/industrial environment and underwater acoustic channels are severely delay-spread channels, where the number of multipath components can be of the order of tens to hundreds. In the second part of the thesis, we report low complexity equalization algorithms for cyclic-prefixed single carrier (CPSC)systems that operate on such inter-symbol interference(ISI) channels characterized by large delay spreads. Both single-input single-output and multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) systems are considered. For these systems, we propose a low complexity graph based equalization carried out in frequency domain. Because of the noise whitening effect that happens for large frame sizes and delay spreads in the frequency domain processing, improved performance compared to time domain processing is shown to be achieved. Since the graph based equalizer is a soft-input soft-output equalizer, iterative techniques(turbo-equalization) between detection and decoding are shown to yield good coded BER performance at low complexities in convolutional and LDPC coded systems. We also study joint decoding of LDPC code and equalization of MIMO-ISI channels using a joint factor graph.

Statistical modelling and reduction of multiple access interference power in wideband DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA communications systemsCarey, Daniel Jeffrey January 2006 (has links)
With code division multiple access (CDMA) systems being the prominent multiple access scheme for the air interface for 3G cellular systems, most standardisation bodies have based their terrestrial cellular systems on DS-CDMA (W-CDMA, UMTS, cdma2000). With 4G systems fast approaching, bringing with them improved services and quality of service standards, there is growing interest in further investigating and developing more efficient multiple access techniques such as multicarrier CDMA (MC-CDMA) systems. MC-CDMA combines multicarrier modulation (MCM), namely OFDM, with CDMA profiting from the benefits of both multiplexing techniques; as such, MC-CDMA is emerging as a possible candidate for the air interface multiple access scheme for 4G cellular systems. Multiple access interference (MAI) is a limiting factor of CDMA systems in terms of system capacity as orthogonally designed spreading sequences lose their orthogonality in the presence of timing misalignments amongst mobile subscribers in a cell; such is the case over the uplink channel. Ensuring orthogonal code properties minimises the MAI over synchronous environments, however, it is when the users are allowed to transmit asynchronously, as is the case over the uplink channel, that MAI inflicts significant performance degradation. In CDMA systems, all subscribers are active on the same frequency band simultaneously and signal separation is facilitated upon reception via the properties of the assigned spreading codes. Under asynchronous conditions the code properties alone do not provide the necessary separation and an additive MAI term remains in the detection process. In addition to the separation abilities of the spreading codes, a further method of deciphering the desired subscriber signal from the interfering subscriber signals is sought. In this thesis we propose a statistical model for both the probability density function (pdf) of the total MAI power and the corresponding bit-error rate (BER) observed during asynchronous CDMA transmission. The modelling offers the full statistic the MAI power and resulting BER, not just the first and second order statistics. In addition to statistically quantifying the MAI power, the thesis also proposes a technique for the successful reduction of MAI caused by asynchronous transmission. This interference reduction technique is derived from an ambiguity domain analysis of the asynchronous CDMA detection problem and its application to both the DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA multiplexing techniques is presented and the results show significant MAI reduction, and thus an improved the BER. A methodology for the approximation of the total MAI power pdf and the resulting BER pdf is proposed for the asynchronous DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA techniques. This methodology is derived for the use of Walsh-Hadamard (WH) and Gold spreading sequences, however, it is applicable to any given set of deterministic spreading sequences. The total MAI power pdfs of both systems are statistically modelled as being Nakagamim distributed and the corresponding BER modelling is derived from the Nakagami-m formulation offering the full statistic of both the incurred MAI power and the achievable BER. The proposed pdf acquisition methodology and statistical models can be used as analysis tools to assess the relative performances of the DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA techniques for a variety of communications environments. Here the asynchronous uplink channel is considered in the absence of fading and the results show a clear distinction between the BER performances of the MC-CDMA and DS-CDMA systems, for which the MC-CDMA system offers a superior performance for the purely asynchronous channel considered. The results suggest a higher resistance to MAI in the MC-CDMA technique in comparison to the DS-CDMA system for the considered transmission scenario. Following ambiguity function analysis of the asynchronous CDMA detection problem, the concept of dual-frequency switching is introduced to the existing DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA techniques giving rise to the proposed dual-frequency DS-CDMA (DF/DSCDMA) and dual-frequency MC-CDMA (DF/MC-CDMA) schemes. Periodically switching the carrier frequency between dual frequency bands at consecutive symbol boundaries facilitates partial CDMA signal separation upon asynchronous reception. Such switching of the carrier frequency induces a separation in frequency between offset interference signals and the reference signal; this is equivalent to shifting the energy concentration of the interference signals away form the ambiguity domain origin (representing the decision variable of the matched filter). Further MAI reduction is demonstrated through careful design of the dual carrier frequencies. The newly proposed DF systems clearly outperform the standard DS-CDMA and MC-CDMA systems when adopting equivalent spreading factors. The DF/DS-CDMA technique in particular achieves the most MAI reduction and in doing so, surpasses all other considered techniques to offer the best BER performance for the purely asynchronous channel considered. In terms of bandwidth usage, the DF/DS-CDMA band width is 1.5 times that of the DF/MC-CDMA system and from the BER results presented, one may argue that DF/MC-CDMA offers the better BER given the bandwidth usage. The multicarrier systems presented, MC-CDMA and DF/MC-CDMA, offer attractive BER performances for the bandwidth used and it is concluded that MC-CDMA is a genuine candidate for the uplink air interface multiple access scheme for future mobile cellular technologies.

De nombreuses applications de communication numériques font face à des canaux de transmission sélectifs en temps et en fréquence que nous pouvons assimiler à des systèmes linéaires variants dans le temps. À travers ces travaux de thèse, nous montrons que les modulations multiporteuses suréchantillonnées constituent une technique de transmission adaptée à ce type d'environnement. Cependant, la complexité algorithmique des émetteurs-récepteurs présentent un frein majeur à leur adoption. Fort de ce constat, nous nous intéressons à la sous-famille des modulations multiporteuses suréchantillonnées à filtres courts (WCP-OFDM), dont la complexité algorithmique est comparable à celle de l'OFDM avec préfixe cyclique. Après avoir exprimé les conditions de reconstructions parfaites, nous développons des égaliseurs de faible complexité et étudions la problématique du rapport de puissance crête sur puissance moyenne du signal en sortie d'émetteur. Enfin, nous analysons les performances de ces modulations à travers plusieurs scénarios de propagation radiomobiles. Les résultats de simulation confirment l'intérêt du WCP-OFDM, associé à des filtres prototypes bien localisés en temps et en fréquence pour faire face aux canaux doublement sélectifs. / Many digital communication applications are facing time and frequency selective channels that can be modelled by linear time-variant systems. Through this thesis work, we show that oversampled multicarrier modulations provide a suitable transmission technique for such an environment. However, the complexity of the transmitter-receiver remains a major obstacle for their adoption. Based on this observation, we focus on the sub-family of oversampled multicarrier modulation with short filters (WCP-OFDM), whose complexity is similar to cylic prefix OFDM. After introducing the perfect reconstruction conditions, we develop low-complexity equalizers and we study the peak-to-average power ratio issue at the output of the transmitter. Finally, we evaluate the performances of these moduations over several mobile radio propagation scenarios. Simulation results confirm the benefits of WCP-OFDM, with time-frequency localized prototypes filters, over doubly selective channels.
