Abstract-We consider the problem of designing constellation sets for multistage systems for high spectral efficiencies. In particular we will focus on two-stage systems where the cascaded decoding stages are associated to three types of receivers with different complexities and performances. The optimal receiver (S) processes the symbol LLR and delivers the maximum possible throughput, the simpler...
Due to their lack of assessment mechanisms of link quality in VANET environments, routing protocols do not deal efficiently with highly volatile links. One way to fill this gap would be to anticipate links breakages with new route computation. Currently available link quality indicators are not sufficiently responsive to consider forecasting. In this paper we present a novel predictive link quality...
Many aspects of lattice coding and decoding under time-varying multiple-antenna systems remain unexplored. This paper studies the achievable rates using lattice codes for the multiple-input- multiple-output (MIMO) point-to-point channel with ergodic fading and channel state information at the receiver. The proposed lattice coding scheme involves the use of decision regions that are universal for almost...
Cloud radio access network (CRAN) is a promising candidate for the next-generation wireless communication systems. In CRAN, remote radio heads (RRHs) are deployed to serve users in a target area, which are connected to a central processor (CP) via limited-capacity links termed the fronthaul. In practice, the large amount of information transferred between each RRH and the CP for centralized processing...
Wireless communication systems use adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) as well as hybrid ARQ (HARQ) to mitigate the effects of time-varying and error-prone channels. In this work, we analyze the benefits of combining HARQ and AMC adopting the throughput as a unique performance measure. The analysis of block-fading channels and error-prone decoders allows us to conclude that i) adding HARQ on top...
Partially overlapped channels (POCs) have been studied recently to improve network performance. However, the current OFDM-based 802.11 system is designed for co-channel communication, and does not support communication over POCs. Thus the coordination between POCs imposes a new challenge to WLANs. In this paper, we present DSN (Data Symbol Nulling), a novel communication strategy that leverages the...
In this work, we propose and optimize a new coding strategy designed to enhance the throughput of hybrid ARQ (HARQ) transmissions over i.i.d. block-fading channels where the channel state information (CSI) is unknown at the transmitter. Unlike in the conventional approach, where many blocks are exclusively assigned to carry the HARQ rounds of a single packet, we use a joint coding and the same channel...
This paper considers interference mitigation techniques in the forward link of multibeam satellite systems. In contrast to previous works, either devoted to receiver interference mitigation (e.g. multiuser detection) or transmitter interference mitigation (precoding), this work evaluates the achievable rates of the joint combination of both techniques. On the one hand, precoding cannot properly mitigate...
We propose a new linear physical-layer network coding and information combining scheme for the K-user fading multiple-access relay network (MARN), which consists of K users, one relay and one destination. The relay and the destination are connected via a rate-constraint backhaul link. In the proposed scheme, the K users transmit signals simultaneously. The relay and the destination receive the superimposed...
