The Industrial Internet needs to deal with the data transmission tasks of large-traffic mobile bandwidth and ultra-low latency. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing/Offset Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (OFDM/OQAM) passive optical network (PON) systems are affected by inherent imaginary interference (IMI), part of which is generated by the chromatic dispersion (CD) of optical fiber systems. Another part is produced by polarization mode dispersion (PMD). This paper proposes a channel estimation (CE) algorithm based on compressed sensing (CS), where the signal exhibits sparsity through sparse representation, and the signal reconstruction algorithm of compressed sensing adopts the orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm (OMP). The channel transfer function (TF) can effectively reduce the IMI and make the signal accuracy of the receiving end higher. Simulation results show that CS-CE algorithm can improve the system performance, which is better than the traditional LS method. Compared to existing LS methods, the CS algorithm can accomplish a 20% improvement. The algorithm can reduce the bit error rate of the system and improve the reliability of the system.","PeriodicalId":102261,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops (ICC Workshops)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114555246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order not to impair the visual quality of the background image of digital signage, modulation is performed by changing its color components by taking advantage of the fact that changes in specific color components are difficult for the human eyes to perceive. In previous studies, modulation was based on only one color component, and the communication quality depended on what background image was used. In this study, we propose a modulation method in which the background image does not affect the communication quality by multiplexing the modulation with two color components and applying diversity demodulation. The proposed method is evaluated by a trade-off evaluation of communication quality and quantitative visual quality, and shows the best result regardless of the background image. In addition, the visual quality is improved by using uniform color space that provides uniform color changes for the human eyes.","PeriodicalId":102261,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops (ICC Workshops)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116273369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While several simulator and emulator tools have been designed for terrestrial and satellite networks, there is a lack of tools reproducing both together. In this paper, we focus on the LoRaWAN network with satellite backhaul, and we design an emulation-based testbed that implements the entire end-to-end system by integrating emulated satellite components, with real LoRaWAN devices. The testbed allows running experiments in real working conditions, considering the impact of Hardware and Software components, and environmental factors impacting the reliability of the satel-lite channel. First experiments have confirmed the feasibility of a Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellite backhaul for a LoRaWAN network. The delay introduced by the satellite does not heavily impact the normal protocol behaviour. On the contrary, attenuation on the satellite channel (due to not clear sky condition) may hinder the Over The Air Activation (OTAA) join procedure, and the reception of Acknowledgment (ACK) by Class-A devices. In ideal condition (clear sky) the achieved performance in terms of Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) is comparable to the ones obtained with an Ethernet-based terrestrial backhaul.","PeriodicalId":102261,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops (ICC Workshops)","volume":"92 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116309715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies have shown that an economical way of enhancing/improving these NLoS links is by using passive metal-lic reflectors that provide strong reflections. However, despite its inherent radio advantage, metals can dramatically influence the landscape's appearance - especially the indoor environment. A conceptual view of escaping this is by using transparent reflectors. In this work, for the very first time, we evaluate the wireless propagation characteristics of passive transparent reflectors in an indoor environment at 28 GHz, 39 GHz, 120 GHz, and 144 GHz bands. In particular, we investigate the penetration loss and the reflection characteristics at different frequencies and compare them against the other common indoor materials such as ceiling tile, clear glass, drywall, plywood, and metal. The measurement results suggest that the transparent reflector, apart from an obvious advantage of transparency, has a higher penetration loss than the common indoor materials (excluding metal) and performs similarly to metal in terms of reflection. Our experimental results directly translate to better reflection performance and preserving the radio waves within the environ-ment than common indoor materials, with potential applications in controlled wireless communication.","PeriodicalId":102261,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops (ICC Workshops)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121450152","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For a memoryless stationary Poisson channel, we consider a conflicting situation where multiple users share the same spectrum and attempt to maximize their throughput. The system model is constructed, where multiple transmitters communicate with many users each equipped with a single photon-counting receiver. Importantly, to limit the interference, we consider the transmission at an asymptotically low-power regime. The first contribution of this paper is to model the problem as a non-cooperative game and present the Nash equilibrium beamformer. We present the sufficient and necessary conditions for the Nash equilibrium solution. Next, we develop a cooperative game, where users can autonomously bargain to maximize their achievable capacity. To obtain the Nash bargaining solution, we generate the convex hull by performing time sharing. The key idea utilized in generating a convex hull is to choose different strategies at different time slots. The bargaining among the users is shown to yield a significant performance improvement at asymptotically low transmit power. Moreover, it is shown that selfish but cooperative users can achieve maximum sum-rate performance.","PeriodicalId":102261,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops (ICC Workshops)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134053966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
