In this paper, we study the power-efficient resource allocation for multicarrier non-orthogonal multiple access (MC-NOMA) systems. The resource allocation algorithm design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem which takes into account the statistical channel state information at transmitter and quality of service (QoS) constraints. To strike a balance between system performance and computational...
According to the characteristics of assembly line balancing problem, a modified honey bees mating optimization (MHBMO) algorithm was proposed to solve this problem. In this algorithm, the precedence matrix of tasks is proposed to apply the coding method based on the sequence of tasks. The initial feasible population was generated by a binary tree method, and a modified crossover operator and three...
An ever growing share of renewable energy resources in the distribution grid imposes fluctuating and hardly predictable feed-in and thus demands new control strategies. On the other hand, combined with controllable, shiftable loads and battery capacity, these energy units set up new flexibility potentials for ICT-based control. So far, many approaches for harnessing this potential neglect the indispensable...
Multifactorial optimization (MFO) is a new paradigm proposed recently for evolutionary multi-tasking. In contrast to traditional evolutionary optimization approaches, which focus on solving only a single optimization problem at a time, MFO was proposed to solve multiple optimization problems simultaneously. It is contended that the concept of evolutionary multi-tasking provides the scope for implicit...
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...
This paper considers the problem of maximizing energy efficiency on the downlink of two-tier wireless backhaul small cell heterogeneous networks, where an interference mitigation strategy that combines reverse time division duplexing and equally orthogonal spectrum splitting is proposed. By enabling the small cell access points with the capability of switching ON/OFF, we develop a joint design of...
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...
The paper studies the source coding (quantization) for the feedback of discrete-time and continuous-state cyber-physical systems (CPSs). It is formulated as a sequential coding optimization problem. The goal is to find a deterministic policy, as a series of mappings from the historical state information to the quantization strategy for the current feedback state. In particular, an optimization problem...
All multimedia devices now incorporate video CODECs that comply with international video coding standards such as H.264 / MPEG4-AVC and the new High Efficiency Video Coding Standard (HEVC) otherwise known as H.265. Although the standard CODECs have been designed to include algorithms with optimal efficiency, large number of coding parameters that can be used to fine tune their operation, within known...
Following the long-term goal of substituting conventional power generation with cleaner energy will lead to an integration of a large share of small energy generation units imposing large problem sizes for coordination. The expected huge number of entities leads to a need for new techniques reducing the computational effort for coordination. Predictive scheduling is a frequent task in energy grid...
Powerful forward error correction codes such as quasi-cyclic low density parity check (QC-LDPC) are required in next-generation coherent optical communication systems [1]. This work describes the design and experimental verification of a high net coding gain (NCG), low complexity QC-LDPC code. Towards this end, we develop a field programmable gate array (FPGA) based platform specially designed for...
In this paper, we consider a multiuser multiple-input single-output downlink system for Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer(SWIPT). Different from the conventional battery-free power splitting strategy, the harvested energy can be buffered in a battery before consumption. Accordingly, increasing battery lifetime, where the base station is powered by sustainable energy. A sum rate...
Differential encoded LDPC (DE-LDPC) coded systems with multiple symbol differential detection (MSDD) scheme can avoid good estimation of channel state information and compensate performance degradation of differential detection. In this paper, LDPC codes optimization for the DE-LDPC coded systems with MSDD is studied. Simulation results show that the optimized LDPC codes perform much better than the...
This paper considers a multiuser multichannel simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) cognitive radio (CR) network, where a set of secondary users (SUs) simultaneously harvests energy and decodes information using the same signals transmitted from a cognitive base station (CBS). Power splitting is adopted to realize SWIPT by splitting the signal power into two portions, where...
LDPC code is a powerful error correcting code used in many communication systems. Efficient decoding algorithm and hardware implementation of LDPC code is an important issue. The paper proposes an improved version of the Normalized Min-Sum (NMS) decoding algorithm named “Girth-Aware NMS”. The principle of the GA-NMS is to determine “offline” the optimal normalisation factor of the extrinsic message...

SCMA enjoys stronger overloading tolerance compared with traditional MA technologies. It also takes the advantage of sparse property to achieve lower complexity when using message passing algorithm (MPA). In this...

We develop and apply several strategies for setting physical parameters on quantum annealers for application problems that do not fit natively on the hardware graph. The strategies are tested with a culled random set of mixed satisfiability problems, yielding results that generalize to guidelines regarding which parameter setting strategies to use for different classes of problems, and how to choose...
In this study, a 128 kb ultra low voltage (ULV) SRAM, based on a 7T bitcell with one bitline, is presented. Overall energy efficiency is enhanced by optimizations on all abstraction levels, i.e., from bitcell to macro integration. Degraded performance and reliability due to ULV operation is recovered by selectively overdriving the bitline and wordline with a new single-cycle charge-pump. A dedicated...
Energy harvesting (EH) is a prominent method to prolong the operation time of energy-constrained wireless networks. Integrating EH into wireless communications to support simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) allows the spectrum to be used for both purposes without compromising the quality of service (QoS). In this paper, we propose a subcarrier allocation based SWIPT scheme...
