Fourth Generation Networks will invariably adopt MIMO-OFDMA techniques, in order to cope with increased data rate demands and improved Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. OFDMA is a popular multiple access candidate, since it facilitates multi-user diversity by enabling two dimensional multiple access, in time and frequency domains. Random Beamforming enables exploitation of spatial multi-user...
The mobile WiMAX standard (802.16e) uses multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) limited feedback linear precoding to exploit the channel state information at the transmitter. Although the performance of limited feedback linear precoding in relation to traditional open-loop MIMO-OFDM has been extensively studied in the literature, these studies commonly assume perfect channel estimation at the receiver...
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems have enjoyed widespread adoption in high data rate wired and wireless networks, due to their ability to efficiently cope with slowly varying dispersive channels. This paper considers the information theoretic secrecy rates that are achievable by an OFDM transmitter/receiver pair in the presence of an eavesdropper that might either use an OFDM...
Multi-carrier modulation and especially CP-OFDM is widely used nowadays in several radio communications. However, FBMC is a potential alternative to CP-OFDM since it does not require cyclic prefix, and thus, it has a higher spectral efficiency. One of the characteristics of FBMC is that the received data are accompanied by a two dimensional inter-symbol interference term (2D ISI), which complicates...
The 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) LTE (Long Term Evolution) and LTE-Advanced activities work toward the evolved UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA), and the solution of IMT-Advanced (International Mobile Telecommunications) and systems beyond. The combination of OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) and MIMO (multiple-input...
Recently, pre-fast Fourier transform (pre-FFT) combining has been introduced for space-time block-coded (STBC) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. Despite the complexity reduction, the resultant signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values of different subcarriers are often not balanced, and it limits the system performance. In this paper, we propose to use the max-min fair criterion...
