Recent advances in interference exploitation showed that exploiting knowledge of interference constructively can improve the receive signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) at the destination. This paper exploits this concept to design artificial noise (AN) beamformers constructive to the intended receiver (IR) yet keeping AN disruptive to possible eavesdroppers (Eves). A multiple-input single-output...
How to improve system capacity and spectral efficiency is a key issue for next generation wireless communication. Heterogeneous network (HetNet) has been considered as a new promising technique for enhancing the quality of service and spectrum efficiency due to different radio access technology and network structures. However, conventional resource allocation algorithms in HetNets are achieved under...
In this paper, we study the robust design of downlink multicast Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN), equipped with wireless backhaul. Due to feedback delays, channel estimation or quantization errors, etc., only impaired Channel State Information (CSI) might be available at the Central Processor (CP). In order to achieve a power-efficient system, we aim to minimize the network power cost while guarantee...
Electromyography (EMG) has been popularly used as interface command to achieve a natural control for myoelectric prosthetic-hands. Traditional EMG-based recognition methods always only focus on the classification of target motion classes that were defined in the training phase, but have no ability to reject outlier motion interferences that did not present before. In this paper, a hybrid classifier...
Digital signal processing for Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers is mostly based on the assumption that the noise at the receiver input is Gaussian. This assumption leads to a non-linear Least Squares (LS) problem where GNSS signal parameters are estimated by minimizing a quadratic cost function. The receiver performance can be however significantly degraded by non-Gaussian phenomena...
This paper compares the performance of various beamforming techniques using convex optimization. A new robust beamforming technique is formulated, and its performance is compared with the diagonal loading, robust SOCP techniques and the standard sample matrix inversion technique in different scenarios. The robustness of the proposed technique to errors in the array steering vector is demonstrated...
Based on the tapped delay-lines (TDL) wideband model, the response variation (RV) constraint is applied to improve the frequency response consistency of the wideband beamforming. The optimization criterion of the proposed algorithm is minimizing the designed sidelobe level utmost and the constraints of the sidelobe level, interference suppression and the response variation while making the direction...
This paper focuses on an average robust transmit beamforming optimization problem for the multiuser multiple-input-single-output (MISO) downlink scenario. In this problem, the channels are modeled as Gaussian variables with mean zero and with known covariance at the transmitter. The design criterion is to maximize the sum of the users' average rates with respect to the channels, subject to the total...
In live and studio recordings unexpected sound events often lead to interferences in the signal. For non-stationary interferences, sound source separation techniques can be used to reduce the interference level in the recording. In this context, we present a novel approach combining the strengths of two algorithmic families: NMF and KAM. The recent KAM approach applies robust statistics on frames...
In this paper, we consider a decode-and-forward (DF) full-duplex relay (FDR)-aided downlink wireless communication system consisting of one base station (BS) equipped with large scale antennas and multiple MIMO FDRs, which have been recognized as essential techniques in the fifth generation (5G) wireless communications. In view of the system performance not only limited by self-interference (SI) and...
Adaptive beamformers (ABF) are used when estimating the direction of arrival of a narrowband planewave with a uniform line array in an environment with loud, unwanted signals. Capon's minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) suppresses interferers by steering beampattern nulls in their directions but maintains unity gain in the look direction. In practical situations, ABFs replace the ensemble...
When noise is directional instead of diffuse, the majority of conventional direction of arrival (DOA) estimation techniques suffer from performance degradation because of mismatched noise models. In this paper, a novel robust DOA estimation algorithm is developed as an initial investigation into DOA estimation of speech under directional non-speech interference (DNSI) and non-directional background...
We propose an architecture that incorporates a robust and agile primary user (PU) detection, accompanied by a dynamic OFDM spectrum allocation scheme. By exploiting the capabilities of a 2×2 MIMO PCIe SDR device we are able to maximize the usage of the available spectrum with the minimal PU disturbance.
The performance of adaptive beamformer will degrade in the case of jammer motion and shaking platform. In order to improve the performance of adaptive beamformer, an improved null broadening adaptive beamforming method is proposed. The proposed method is realized by the reconstruction of interference-plus-noise covariance matrix. Null broadening can be obtained by the proposed method and the null...
This work presents a model of the G3-PLC physical (PHY) layer tailored for network simulations. It allows simulating frequency selective channels with non-stationary colored noise. Collisions with other frames are modeled taking into account the length and the power of the interfering frames. Frame errors are estimated using the effective signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio mapping (ESM) function...
In order to make the ship course keeping algorithm more energy-efficient, this paper used the closed-loop gain shaping algorithm to design the linear controller, and then used a kind of bipolar sigmoid function nonlinear feedback to replace the original linear feedback. Theoretical analysis showed that in the same control effect, the proposed algorithm could reduce control energy. Took the ship Yukun...
The curse of big data, propelled by the explosive growth of mobile devices, places overwhelming pressures on wireless communications. Network densification is a promising approach to improve the area spectral efficiency, but to acquire massive channel state information (CSI) for effective interference management becomes a formidable task. In this paper, we propose a novel interference management method...
Motivated by the observation that energy harvesting (EH) from radio-frequency (RF) signal is subject to fluctuations, multiple EH-enabled relays are employed to collaboratively enhance data communications in a device-to-device (D2D) network underlying a cellular system. Each relay is equipped with a single antenna and unable to harvest energy and transmit data simultaneously. Thus, the D2D user equipment...
This paper considers the physical-layer secrecy design for full-duplex (FD) bidirectional communications in the presence of an eavesdropper (Eve). The goal of this work is to maximize the sum secrecy rate (SSR) of the bidirectional transmissions via appropriately designing the transmit covariance matrices at the legitimate nodes. To this end, we propose an alternating difference-of-concave (ADC) approach...
This paper studies a robust beamforming optimization problem of minimizing total transmit power in a distributed manner in the presence of imperfect channel state information (CSI) in multicell interference networks. Due to the fact that worst- case is a rare occurrence in practical network, this problem is constrained to satisfying a set of signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) requirements...
