This paper derives an exact, easily computable series-type formulation for the multivariate α-μ joint cumulative distribution function. Then, based on useful and practical assumptions, alternative, new, simpler formulations for the α-μ multivariate joint density function and its corresponding distribution function are provided. The formulations are still general and yet very simple, assuming arbitrary...
Reliability of the communication systems depends hugely on the receiver performance where the synchronization and detection tasks need to be performed. Classically these two tasks are attended separately resulting in simple yet non-optimal receivers. During the last decade, a family of iterative receivers has been introduced to approximate the optimal solution to joint estimation and detection problem...
In densely deployed wireless sensor networks, observations of the sensor nodes are spatially correlated. In this paper, we study a joint channel decoding scheme utilizing bit correlation of the sensor observations according to bit levels of analog-digital converter (ADC). If sensor ADC output is interpreted as natural binary numeral, carry propagation may occur between adjacent ADC output values....
Within the context of high-data rate transmissions over time varying multipath fading channels, this article presents a new receiver design for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The received signal is processed jointly in time and frequency domains. A Discrete Wavelet Transform is applied to the received signal before equalization which is based on the minimum mean square...
A new partial transmit sequence (PTS) technique for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals which does not require side information, is proposed. In the proposed method, the transmitter applies PTS to reduce the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and does not send the side information on the PTS phase factors to the receiver. Based on the OFDM symbol structure having pilot subcarriers,...
Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems use multiple transmit and receive antennas to achieve higher data rates by transmitting multiple independent data systems. Transmission errors can be reduced by using Hybrid Automatic Repeat request (HARQ) combining techniques with MIMO systems. We propose two novel MIMO HARQ combining methods which are based on using pre-combining only and a joint post...
In this paper, we investigate the performance and the design of Joint Source-Channel Decoding (JSCD) schemes involving structured Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes such as protograph based codes. We first present the asymptotic analysis of such iterative receivers based on multi-dimensional EXIT charts. Since a protograph can be interpreted as different encoding schemes, the information mapping...
This paper proposes a new combinational technology which is feasible to apply physical-layer network coding (PNC) to wireless fading channel. The key step of PNC is that sources broadcast signals simultaneously without orthogonal scheduling. Naturally, the signals overlap in the free space at the receivers. Since the signals from different sources are mutual independent, rooted on this rational assumption,...
In this paper, we consider the problem of functional compression for an arbitrary tree network. Suppose we have k possibly correlated source processes in a tree network, and a receiver in its root wishes to compute a deterministic function of these processes. Other nodes of this tree (called intermediate nodes) are allowed to perform some computations to satisfy the node's demand. Our objective is...
