In this paper a new interference mitigation scheme with resource control is proposed, to achieve the objective of higher performance in MIMO system, using interference conditions. A generic approach for both coordinated and randomized multi-user access strategies for interference mitigation is proposed. The suggestive analytical framework develops the correlation of fading channel over the space-frequency...
GNSS-R techniques use direct and reflected signals coming from GNSS satellites to characterize the reflecting surface. In altimetry applications, the height of the surface is derived from the path difference between these two signals. The aim of this article is to propose a receiver architecture for high rate estimation of this path difference using an Interference Pattern Technique. An original receiver...
Opportunistic user selection is a simple technique that exploits the spatial diversity in multiuser relay-aided networks. Nonetheless, channel state information (CSI) from all users (and cooperating relays) is generally required at a central node in order to make selection decisions. Practically, CSI acquisition generates a great deal of feedback overhead that could result in significant transmission...
The time delay estimation of the TDOA is signification in passive source localization systems, and the estimation accuracy may directly affect the source location performance. We address the problem of passive blind estimation of time-delay for uncorrelated co-frequency interference source signal based on wireless sensor network (WSN). The received mixtures are modeled as unknown linear combinations...
Time-of-Flight (ToF) camera has become an attractive source of applications in location-based services, autonomous navigation, object localization for robotic manipulation, ego-motion estimation, etc. Besides, these services demand centimeter level accuracy to provide the required services. Though ToF cameras can provide high accuracy in location-based services with high frame rates (approx. 30 fps),...
In recent years, accidents occur frequently because the people number of scenic spots is lack of control. In this paper, a novel real-time people number detection algorithm of scenic spot based on density center clustering (DPBC) is proposed. Taking account of the complexity of the scenic environment, we use the Gauss mixture model (GMM) to suppress the background interference, extract the feature...
When the femtocell base station has perfect channel state information, it can adopt beamforming to avoid interference. However, the perfect channel assumption may not be practicable due to the channel-state information delay, channel estimator error, and bandwidth wastage while reporting channel parameters. In this paper, we proposed an angle of arrival (AOA) based beamforming structure for orthogonal...
LTE License-Assisted Access (LTE-LAA) in unlicensed spectrum has drawn a lot of attention due to its appealing data traffic offloading potential. However, the coexistence of LTE and WiFi technologies in the same unlicensed bands needs careful design to avoid severe interference between them. In this paper, we propose a coexistence scheme to create opportunities for LTE-LAA small cells and WiFi devices...
Database-aided user association, where users are associated with data base stations (BSs) based on a database which stores their geographical location with signal-to-noise-ratio tagging, will play a vital role in the futuristic cellular architecture with separated control and data planes. However, such approach can lead to inaccurate user-data BS association, as a result of the inaccuracies in the...
In this paper, we propose a complete data-aided (DA) synchronization algorithm for minimum-shift keying (MSK) transmission, which addresses features of the transmit-only Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). To provide reliable packet detection even under a packet overlapping scenario, our frame synchronization metric is based on a pseudo-random (PN) sequence preamble and keeps a constant low false alarm...
In this paper, the parameters estimation for the interference rejection combining (IRC) technique with the inter-cell interference (ICI) and narrowband interference (NBI) in single-carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems is considered. Due to the characteristics of the interferences in uplink SC-FDMA systems is quite different from that in downlink orthogonal frequency-division...
Interference between automotive radars decreases the sensors' detection capabilities. It is possible to use digital beamforming (DBF) in multi-antenna systems to reduce the power received from certain directions of arrival (DoA). If digital beamforming is used to mitigate the effect of an interferer, it is shown that it is not sufficient to cancel the DoA of an interferer alone, if an I-Q mixer is...
The minimum variance distortionless response beamformer (MVDR) using the direction-of-arrival (DOA) of the source signal as the steering vector for an acoustic vector sensor (AVS) s proposed. The interference reduction performance of the MVDR beamformer under a scenario of one directional interference and different sensor noises is analyzed. The output signal-to-noise ratio (oSNR) and array gain of...
Direction-Of-Arrival (DOA) estimation is one of the most important field in array signal processing. This paper presents a compact Reactance based Uniform Circular Array (RB-UCA) antenna system and a technique to steer nulls using optimized reactances as well as to estimate DOAs. A comparison between optimized and random reactances is presented by finding the array pattern when two interfering signals...
This paper introduces CreD2D: a novel multi-hop device-to-device heterogeneous routing framework driven by a credit-based mechanism. CreD2D, employed by rational cooperative mobile users, allows a wireless network to self-evolve, manifesting itself as a decentralised cognitive framework that can overlay a licensed resource allocation in LTE heterogeneous networks. The advantages of this approach are...
Recently, wireless networking technologies have been evolving to support wider bandwidth, and longer radio range in denser networks. Therefore, there is a high probability that two or more networks will overlap and result in more co-channel interferences. To mitigate the interference, the centralized network system is a promising solution which is based on the conflicts information provided by the...
In this paper, we investigate the demodulation of a communication signal that is interfered by a high-powered radar signal. We choose quaternary phase-shift keying (QPSK) modulation for illustration. A least squares estimator (LSE) is used to estimate the amplitude and phase of the interfering radar signal to be used for interference cancellation. Then a maximum likelihood detection (MLD) receiver...
In this paper, we study the performance of hybrid cognitive radio systems that combine the benefits of interweave and underlay systems by employing a spectrum sensing and a power control mechanism at the Secondary Transmitter (ST). Existing baseline models considered for performance analysis assume perfect knowledge of the involved channels at the ST, however, such situations hardly exist in practical...
In frequency division duplex (FDD) two-tier networks, the probing technique has recently been introduced into the cross-channel gain estimation, which requires the tier-two user to act as a relay for the tier-one user. Then the tier-two user can autonomously estimate the cross-channel gain. However, the improper location of the tier-two user, i.e., the relay, may cause severe interference to the tier-one...
Massive MIMO enables the improvement on the transmission rate without increasing the burden on the signal processing by employing a large number of antennas at a base station (BS). Channel state information (CSI) feedback scheme from terminal stations to BS gives a very large overhead when considering massive MIMO and implicit beamforming (IBF) with the calibration technique as the countermeasures...
