Methods for Blind Separation of Co-Channel BPSK Signals Arriving at an Antenna Array and Their Performance AnalysisAnand, K 07 1900 (has links)
Capacity improvement of Wireless Communication Systems is a very important area of current research. The goal is to increase the number of users supported by the system per unit bandwidth allotted. One important way of achieving this improvement is to use multiple antennas backed by intelligent signal processing. In this thesis, we present methods for blind separation of co-channel BPSK signals arriving at an antenna array. These methods consist of two parts, Constellation Estimation and Assignment. We give two methods for constellation estimation, the Smallest Distance Clustering and the Maximum Likelihood Estimation. While the latter is theoretically sound,the former is Computationally simple and intuitively appealing. We show that the Maximum Likelihood Constellation Estimation is well approximated by the Smallest Distance Clustering Algorithm at high SNR. The Assignment Algorithm exploits the structure of the BPSK signals. We observe that both the methods for estimating the constellation vectors perform very well at high SNR and nearly attain Cramer-Rao bounds. Using this fact and noting that the Assignment Algorithm causes negligble error at high SNR, we derive an upper bound on the probability of bit error for the above methods at high SNR. This upper bound falls very rapidly with increasing SNR, showing that our constellation estimation-assignment approach is very efficient. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the usefulness of the bounds.

Previous issue date: 2012 / Resumo: Nesta dissertação se propõe um método de controle de admissão de chamadas fuzzy (FCAC) e um método de controle de fluxo fuzzy (FFC), considerando tráfegos multiclasses. Ambos métodos trabalham em conjunto e são implementados na interface aérea das redes 3G UMTS. O método FCAC aceita ou rejeita a requisição de uma nova chamada considerando a prioridade de cada classe de tráfego, assim como a banda efetiva total disponível na interface aérea. Devido a natureza de controle fuzzy, o método FCAC-FFC proposto é considerado como um método de bloqueio gradual. Os usuários de menor prioridade serão sempre os primeiros a serem bloqueados se a banda efetiva total disponível não for suficiente. O método FFC reduz a taxa de transmissão dos usuários ativos de menor prioridade caso seja necessário e, como consequência, a banda efetiva disponível aumenta. Desta forma, temos um uso mais eficiente dos recursos do sistema incrementando o número médio de usuários ativos. O método proposto foi implementado no ambiente de simulação MATLAB e foi utilizada a toolbox de lógica fuzzy para projetar os controladores fuzzy. Os resultados da simulação mostram que o esquema de controle de admissão proposto garante o uso eficiente dos recursos da interface aérea e obtém um melhor desempenho em comparação com os esquemas CAC-FC e FCAC-FC analisados, em termos de probabilidade de bloqueio total / Abstract: This dissertation proposes a fuzzy call admission control method (FCAC) and a fuzzy flow control method (FFC) for multi-class traffic. Two methods should be used on the air interface of 3G UMTS networks. The FCAC method accepts or rejects a new call evaluating the priority of the input traffic class and the total effective bandwidth available at the air interface. Due to inherited fuzzy characteristics the proposed FCAC-FFC can be considered as a soft-blocking approach. The calls with lowest priority are blocked first whenever the currently available bandwidth is not large enough. The FFC method can reduce the transmission rates of active users of lower priority if necessary and consequently increases the effective bandwidth available. Therefore, the more efficient use of system transmission resource can be achieved by increasing the average number of active users. The proposed method was implemented in MATLAB environment, and the fuzzy logic toolbox was used to design the fuzzy controllers. The simulation results show that the proposed call admission control method guarantees efficient use of the air interface resource and achieves lower call blocking probability than the CAC-FC and FCAC-FC methods / Mestrado / Telecomunicações e Telemática / Mestra em Engenharia Elétrica

Vers une solution de contrôle d’admission sécurisée dans les réseaux mesh sans fil / Towards a secure admission control in a wireless mesh networksDromard, Juliette 06 December 2013 (has links)
Les réseaux mesh sans fil (Wireless Mesh Networks-WMNs) sont des réseaux facilement déployables et à faible coût qui peuvent étendre l’Internet dans des zones où les autres réseaux peuvent difficilement accéder. Cependant, plusieurs problèmes de qualité de service (QoS) et de sécurité freinent le déploiement à grande échelle des WMNs. Dans cette thèse, nous proposons un modèle de contrôle d’admission (CA) et un système de réputation afin d’améliorer les performances du réseau mesh et de le protéger des nœuds malveillants. Notre système de CA vise à assurer la QoS des flux admis dans le réseau en termes de bande passante et de délai tout en maximisant l’utilisation de la capacité du canal. L’idée de notre solution est d’associer au contrôle d’admission une planification de liens afin d’augmenter la bande passante disponible. Nous proposons également un système de réputation ayant pour but de détecter les nœuds malveillants et de limiter les fausses alertes induites par la perte de paquets sur les liens du réseau. L’idée de notre solution est d’utiliser des tests statistiques comparant la perte de paquets sur les liens avec un modèle de perte préétabli. De plus, il comprend un système de surveillance composé de plusieurs modules lui permettant détecter un grand nombre d’attaques. Notre CA et notre système de réputation ont été validés, les résultats montrent qu’ils atteignent tous deux leurs objectifs / Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are a very attractive new field of research. They are low cost, easily deployed and high performance solution to last mile broadband Internet access. However, they have to deal with security and quality of service issues which prevent them from being largely deployed. In order to overcome these problems, we propose in this thesis two solutions: an admission control with links scheduling and a reputation system which detects bad nodes. These solutions have been devised in order to further merge into a secure admission control. Our admission control schedules dynamically the network’s links each time a new flow is accepted in the network. Its goal is to accept only flows which constraints in terms of delay and bandwidth can be respected, increase the network capacity and decrease the packet loss. Our reputation system aims at assigning each node of the network a reputation which value reflects the real behavior of the node. To reach this goal this reputation system is made of a monitoring tool which can watch many types of attacks and consider the packet loss of the network. The evaluations of our solutions show that they both meet their objectives in terms of quality of service and security

Efficient Transceiver Techniques for Massive MIMO and Large-Scale GSM-MIMO SystemsLakshmi Narasimha, T January 2015 (has links) (PDF)
Multi-antenna wireless communication systems that employ a large number of antennas have recently stirred a lot of research interest. This is mainly due to the possibility of achieving very high spectral efficiency, power efficiency, and link reliability in such large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. An emerging architecture for large-scale multiuser MIMO communications is one where each base station (BS) is equipped with a large number of antennas (tens to hundreds of antennas) and the user terminals are equipped with fewer antennas (one to four antennas) each. The backhaul communication between base stations is also carried out using large number of antennas. Because of the high dimensionality of large-scale MIMO signals, the computational complexity of various transceiver operations can be prohibitively large. Therefore, low complexity techniques that scale well for transceiver signal processing in such large-scale MIMO systems are crucial. The transceiver operations of interest include signal encoding at the transmitter, and channel estimation, detection and decoding at the receiver. This thesis focuses on the design and analysis of novel low-complexity transceiver signal processing schemes for large-scale MIMO systems.
In this thesis, we consider two types of large-scale MIMO systems, namely, massive MIMO systems and generalized spatial modulation MIMO (GSM-MIMO) systems. In massive MIMO, the mapping of information bits to modulation symbols is done using conventional modulation alphabets (e.g., QAM, PSK). In GSM-MIMO, few of the avail-able transmit antennas are activated in a given channel use, and information bits are conveyed through the indices of these active antennas, in addition to the bits conveyed through conventional modulation symbols. We also propose a novel modulation scheme
named as precoder index modulation, where information bits are conveyed through the index of the chosen precoder matrix as well as the modulation symbols transmitted.
Massive MIMO: In this part of the thesis, we propose a novel MIMO receiver which exploits channel hardening that occurs in large-scale MIMO channels. Channel hardening refers to the phenomenon where the off-diagonal terms of HH H become much weaker compared to the diagonal terms as the size of the channel gain matrix H increases. We exploit this phenomenon to devise a low-complexity channel estimation scheme and a message passing algorithm for signal detection at the BS receiver in massive MIMO systems. We refer to the proposed receiver as the channel hardening-exploiting message passing (CHEMP) receiver. The key novelties in the proposed CHEMP receiver are: (i) operation on the matched filtered system model, (ii) Gaussian approximation on the off-diagonal terms of the HH H matrix, and (iii) direct estimation of HH H instead of H and use of this estimate of HH H for detection
The performance and complexity results show that the proposed CHEMP receiver achieves near-optimal performance in large-scale MIMO systems at complexities less than those of linear receivers like minimum mean squared error (MMSE) receiver. We also present a log-likelihood ratio (LLR) analysis that provides an analytical reasoning for this better performance of the CHEMP receiver. Further, the proposed message passing based detection algorithm enables us to combine it with low density parity check (LDPC) decoder to formulate a joint message passing based detector-decoder. For this joint detector-decoder, we design optimized irregular binary LDPC codes specific to the massive MIMO channel and the proposed receiver through EXIT chart matching. The LDPC codes thus obtained are shown to achieve improved coded bit error rate (BER) performance compared to off-the-shelf irregular LDPC codes.
The performance of the CHEMP receiver degrades when the system loading factor (ratio of the number of users to the number of BS antennas) and the modulation alpha-bet size are large. It is of interest to devise receiver algorithms that work well for high system loading factors and modulation alphabet sizes. For this purpose, we propose a low-complexity factor-graph based vector message passing algorithm for signal detection.
This algorithm uses a scalar Gaussian approximation of interference on the basic sys-tem model. The performance results show that this algorithm performs well for large modulation alphabets and high loading factors. We combine this detection algorithm with a non-binary LDPC decoder to obtain a joint detector-decoder, where the field size of the non-binary LDPC code is same as the size of the modulation alphabet. For this joint message passing based detector-decoder, we design optimized non-binary irregular LDPC codes tailored to the massive MIMO channel and the proposed detector.
GSM-MIMO: In this part of the thesis, we consider GSM-MIMO systems in point-to-point as well as multiuser communication settings. GSM-MIMO has the advantage of requiring only fewer transmit radio frequency (RF) chains than the number of transmit antennas. We analyze the capacity of point-to-point GSM-MIMO, and obtain lower and upper bounds on the GSM-MIMO system capacity. We also derive an upper bound on the BER performance of maximum likelihood detection in GSM-MIMO systems. This bound is shown to be tight at moderate to high signal-to-noise ratios.
When the number of transmit and receive antennas are large, the complexity of en-coding and decoding of GSM-MIMO signals can be prohibitively high. To alleviate this problem, we propose a low complexity GSM-MIMO encoding technique that utilizes com-binatorial number system for bits-to-symbol mapping. We also propose a novel layered message passing (LaMP) algorithm for decoding GSM-MIMO signals. Low computational complexity is achieved in the LaMP algorithm by detecting the modulation bits and the antenna index bits in two deferent layers.
We then consider large-scale multiuser GSM-MIMO systems, where multiple users employ GSM at their transmitters to communicate with a BS having a large number of receive antennas. For this system, we develop computationally efficient message passing algorithms for signal detection using vector Gaussian approximation of interference. The performance results of these algorithms show that the GSM-MIMO system outperforms the massive MIMO system by several dBs for the same spectral efficiency.
Precoder index modulation: It is known that the performance of a communication link can be enhanced by exploiting time diversity without reducing the rate of transmission using pseudo random phase preceding (PRPP). In order to further improve the performance of GSM-MIMO, we apply PRPP technique to GSM-MIMO systems. PRPP provides additional diversity advantage at the receiver and further improves the performance of GSM-MIMO systems. For PRPP-GSM systems, we propose methods to simultaneously precode both the antenna index bits and the modulation symbols using rectangular precoder matrices. Finally, we extend the idea of index modulation to pre-coding and propose a new modulation scheme referred to as precoder index modulation (PIM). In PIM, information bits are conveyed through the index of a prehared PRPP matrix, in addition to the information bits conveyed through the modulation symbols. PIM is shown to increase the achieved spectral efficiency, in addition to providing diver-sity advantages.
