Reduced-state maximum-likelihood detection for OFDM systems with insufficient cyclic prefix

Dispersive channels deteriorate the bit error rate (BER) performance of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with insufficient cyclic prefix (CP). In this paper, we first analyze the intensity of the intersymbol interference (ISI) and intercarrier interference (ICI). For performance enhancement, an effective maximum-likelihood (ML) detection method, named reduced-state maximum-likelihood (RSML), is proposed to detect all target subcarriers parallelly. For each target subcarrier, the proposed RSML detects a few nearby subcarriers jointly, while the remaining subcarriers are directly determined by using pre-detection values. Simulations results show that the proposed RSML achieves a significant performance improvement in terms of BER compared to the existing detection methods and is robust to various channel models and CP lengths. In particular, for certain channel conditions with insufficient CP, the detection performance of RSML is even better than conventional detection with sufficient CP because additional frequency diversity gain is obtained from joint detection at the expense of complexity.     

Reactive jammer detection in OFDM with index modulation

Detection of jamming attacks is an important tool to improve the resource efficiency of jammer resilient communication networks. Detecting reactive jammers is especially difficult since the attacker is cognitive and focuses only on the used channels. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with index modulation (OFDM-IM) consists of active and passive subcarriers. Only active subcarriers carry modulated signals while passive subcarriers are left unused. In OFDM-IM systems, information bits are also dynamically embedded in the indices of these active subcarriers. As a result, remaining passive subcarriers cause instantaneously changing and unused holes in the spectrum that a reactive jammer cannot escape from attacking. In this paper, we propose an OFDM-IM-based detection scheme to improve the detection performance against reactive jammers. The proposed method exploits the dynamically changing empty OFDM-IM subcarriers to improve detection performance. A detection mechanism that is based on the variance of received signals is considered to identify the jammed subcarriers reliably and with low complexity. We assumed a destructive and elusive reactive jammer model that applies a zero-mean Gaussian jamming signal to the occupied channels. The performance of the variance detector is investigated analytically for OFDM-IM and OFDM-based systems under the given jammer model. The results showed that passive subcarriers of OFDM-IM inherently provide a better detection performance compared to the classical OFDM. Lastly, the analytical results are verified via simulations against both full-band and partial-band reactive jammers. Also, the effect of noise and the jamming power on the detection performance is investigated via extensive simulations.     

Adaptive unsaturated technique for OFDM multimode fiber communication system

A novel adaptive unsaturated technique is proposed for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) multimode fiber communication. The core idea of this technique is that bits originally allocated to poor subcarriers are now transmitted by new extra subcarriers rather than the original good subcarriers used in adaptive modulation OFDM. It can reduce the system bit error rate (BER) which is mainly caused by some OFDM subcarriers located at the deep nulls in the high frequency region of multimode fiber. The simulation results indicate that adaptive unsaturated technique is more effective in reducing the BER of system than adaptive modulation and equal bit allocation. Moreover, adaptive unsaturated technique does not need complex bit allocation algorithm and each subcarrier has the same modulation format, so it is simple and practical.     

The improvement of Nyquist pulse shaping for all-optical OFDM system in multi-users network

The all-optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing has a better spectral efficiency and a lower response requirement of modulators for high capacity transmission. In the system, the optical filter will degrade the performance of subcarriers which are far away from the center carrier. We proposed an improvement method of all-optical OFDM scheme using Nyquist pulse shape in the pulse source generator. Comparing a Nyquist shape pulse with a Gauss pulse in a 4 × 100 Gb/s DP-QPSK all-optical sampling OFDM system, the side lobe of transmitted spectrum can be effective suppressed, and the optical power will be more focused on the effective frequency band. By coherent receiver, the results show that the Nyquist pulse shaping can improve the OSNR and transmission performance of subcarriers which deviate mostly from the center frequency of optical filter. This improvement is of great benefit for multi-users system.

Resource allocation with multicell processing,interference cancelation and backhaul rate constraint in single carrier FDMA systems

We consider a cellular system where base stations (BSs) cooperate to receive data from mobile terminals (MTs) using single carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA). This yields a distributed multiantenna system, with corresponding multicell processing gain. Moreover, the exchange of information among BSs is limited due to the rate constraint on the backhaul network. A first contribution of the paper is a scheduler of the signals shared among BSs on the backhaul with the objective of maximizing the SC-FDMA system sum rate. A greedy algorithm is proposed as a viable solution of the problem. A fundamental feature of the scheduler is that BSs may share received signals only within a subset of the subcarriers of each SC-FDMA block. As a further contribution of the paper, to increase the system sum rate, we also consider interference cancelation, where BSs detect some messages without cooperation, and transmit on the backhaul a suitable linear combination of received and detected signals. The scheduling problem is suitably modified to take into account interference cancelation, thus selecting the MTs for which detection occurs before sharing the signal on the backhaul. Numerical results for typical cellular configurations are presented.     

Adaptive unsaturated OFDM multimode fiber communication technique based on zero padding

In order to overcome the deterioration of system performance induced by the subcarriers at or near the deep fading nulls in high frequency band-pass regions of multimode fiber, we first propose adaptive unsaturated OFDM technique based on zero padding in this paper. In our proposed method, the subcarriers with low SNR (at or near deep fading nulls) are turned off by zero padding, and data originally transmitted by those subcarriers will be transferred to new subcarriers with high SNR which have been created at high frequency by the adjusting of IFFT points. The results show that the technique proposed can accomplish transmission of 10 Gbps data rate over 1 km multimode with the BER of 4.61e−3 when the OSNR is 20 dB.     

Method of adaptive distribution of bits and power across the subcarriers in OFDM radio-communication systems

We consider the problem of adaptive distribution of bits and power across the subcarriers in an OFDM radio-communication system operating in frequency-selective environments and propose a new joint adaptive bit and power allocation which ensures a significant increase in the data transmission rate for the given bit error probability. We present a scheme for practical implementation of the proposed algorithm. The results of mathematical simulation, which demonstrate the high efficiency of the proposed algorithm, are presented for the case of a multipath Rayleigh channel with an exponential multipath intensity profile. We study the influence of the Doppler variation in the frequency-selective channel in time on the efficiency of the proposed algorithm. __________ Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Radiofizika, Vol. 49, No. 2, pp. 174–184, January 2006.     

An improved TOA estimation algorithm based on denoised MVDR for B5G positioning

This paper proposes an improved minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) based TOA estimation algorithm for 5G NR signals under multipath environments. The proposed algorithm achieves high resolution by exploiting a large number of subcarriers of 5G signals and reduces the dimension of the covariance matrix involved in MVDR substantially by utilizing a novel smoothing scheme. Since MVDR requires a relatively high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), a denoising method is used to improve the TOA estimation performance. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves much higher resolution than the Bartlett beamformer (BF) and the TOA estimation accuracy remains high over a wide range of SNRs.

A multi-timescale resource allocation algorithm based on self-learning for distributed fog radio access networks

Faced with limited network resources, diverse service requirements and complex network structures, how to efficiently allocate resources and improve network performances is an important issue that needs to be addressed in 5G or future 6G networks. In this paper, we propose a multi-timescale collaboration resource allocation algorithm for distributed fog radio access networks (F-RANs) based on self-learning. This algorithm uses a distributed computing architecture for parallel optimization and each optimization model includes large time-scale resource allocation and small time-scale resource scheduling. First, we establish a large time-scale resource allocation model based on long-term average information such as historical bandwidth requirements for each network slice in F-RAN by long short-term memory network (LSTM) to obtain its next period required bandwidth. Then, based on the allocated bandwidth, we establish a resource scheduling model based on short-term instantaneous information such as channel gain by reinforcement learning (RL) which can interact with the environment to realize adaptive resource scheduling. And the cumulative effects of small time-scale resource scheduling will trigger another round large time-scale resource reallocation. Thus, they constitute a self-learning resource allocation closed loop optimization. Simulation results show that compared with other algorithms, the proposed algorithm can significantly improve resource utilization.     

Guard-band influence on orthogonal-band-multiplexed coherent optical OFDM

Coherent optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) has recently been demonstrated beyond 100 Gb/s using orthogonal band multiplexing (OBM). OBM-OFDM gives a multitude of benefits in implementing high-speed optical OFDM transmission. We investigate the system sensitivity to the guard band of OBM-OFDM. The result suggests that when the guard band equals a multiple of the subcarrier spacing, the Q penalty practically vanishes. We also show that two OFDM bands can be demodulated simultaneously with one fast Fourier transform, owing to interband orthogonality, and its performance is almost the same as one-band detection.     

A novel bits loading algorithm for adaptive modulation OFDM multimode fiber communication system

A novel bits loading algorithm is proposed for adaptively modulated optical OFDM (AMOOFDM) multimode fiber communication system to decrease the system bit error rate (BER) caused by some OFDM subcarriers located at the deep nulls in the high frequency region of multimode fiber. The simulation results show that the performance of the new algorithm is approximate to the optimal algorithm-Greedy algorithm, but its computational complexity is considerably lower, thus the new algorithm is easy to implement. Comparing to fixed bits loading, adaptive bits loading can reduce the system BER effectively.

Four-dimensional scheduling for uplink dynamic bandwidth allocation in OFDM-PON

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing passive optical network (OFDM-PON) has been considered a promising access solution to meet the variable bandwidth demand. In this paper, a novel scheduling for dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) at medium access control (MAC) layer is proposed for uplink transmission of OFDM-PON. In order to utilize the bandwidth efficiently, scheduling in four dimensions is adopted in the proposed DBA algorithm. Four dimensions stand for frequency domains, time domains, modulation formats and power allocations. The algorithm is quite flexible. Simulation results and analysis show that the proposed algorithm can efficiently utilize the OFDM bandwidth and make the system highly energy-efficient.     

Optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexed transmission using all‐optical discrete Fourier transform

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) can provide spectrally efficient communication channels because it can utilize carrier orthogonality and various impairment mitigation methods. An optical OFDM signal can be generated electronically to multiplex lower‐rate carriers. In recent advancements, OFDM signals are also shown to be generated and demultiplexed by all‐optical discrete Fourier transform (DFT), overcoming the speed limit of electronics for >Tbps capacity. High‐performance DFT devices, such as arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) or planar lightwave circuit (PLC), are critically required to obtain strong orthogonality for scalable all‐optical OFDM (AO‐OFDM) system implementations. Advanced techniques such as coherent modulation and detection with digital impairment mitigation are also important for long‐reach AO‐OFDM transmissions. More recently, optical superchannel schemes have been introduced utilizing coherent detection for multi‐Tbps AO‐OFDM transmissions. This paper reviews the device and system aspects for the AO‐OFDM technology, including a generalized theoretical model to provide an indepth understanding.     

Influence of phase noise on OFDM data transmission systems

We discuss the influence of the phase noise on OFDM data transmission systems. It is shown that intercarrier interference appearing due to the influence of the phase fluctuations on the OFDM communication system can be represented as two components, one of which has a uniform distribution across all the subcarriers, while the other has a nonuniform frequency-selective distribution determined by the transmission function of the communication channel. Therefore, the total distribution of intercarrier interference is frequency-selective with a higher power concentrated at stronger subcarriers. It is shown that the phase-noise influence on the OFDM communication system in frequency-selective communication channels is relatively weaker than that in frequency-flat channels without time dispersion.     

Continuous-unconstrained and global optimization for PSO-PTS based PAPR reduction of OFDM signals

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a superior technology for the high-speed data rate of wire-line and wireless communication systems. However, one of the major drawbacks of OFDM signals is the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) problem inherent in 5G waveform design. High PAPR causes OFDM signal distortion in the nonlinear region of the high power amplifier (HPA), and signal distortion leads to a decrease in bit error rate (BER). Partial transmit sequence (PTS) technique is a very attractive technique for PAPR reduction. However, to match the optimum condition on PTS for PAPR reduction, the computational unpredictability and cost of traditional PTS strategy are enormous, thus it is urgent to enhance computational efficiency to obtain the optimal PTS. In this paper, an improved scheme called Continuous-Unconstrained Particle Swarm Optimization based PTS (CUPSO-PTS) technique for optimum phase rotation factors searching is presented. A class of continuous-phase PTS schemes has been proposed to obtain the global optimal phase factor, and the theoretical boundaries can be determined in the continuous-unconstrained searching space. Conversely, when the phase factor values in continuous-unconstrained domain, the equivalent unconstrained PTS optimization can drastically accelerate convergence and reduce total calculation cost. In this paper, we compare the performance of Binary PSO based PTS (BPSO-PTS) scheme and Elitist Genetic Algorithm based PTS (EGA-PTS) scheme for 16-QAM modulation scheme. Theoretical analysis and simulations show that the proposed CUPSO-PTS scheme could provide a significant PAPR reduction in the OFDM system, which outperforms the OFDM systems with the traditional PTS scheme by 0.55 dB at CCDF of 10⁻³ in PAPR reduction. And 84.74% computational complexity is saved.
