Directional neighbor discovery is a crucial technology in the first step of establishing the mmWave communication network. However, directional antennas introduce new challenges to the neighbor discovery: beam alignment and heterogeneous operating mode problems. Meanwhile, the continuous neighbor discovery process leads to significant energy consumption. To solve the above challenges, this paper introduces a directional neighbor discovery algorithm QDND with an adjustable duty cycle based on the Grid Quorum system. Firstly, we design a duty cycle adaptive control algorithm to avoid continuous neighbor discovery processes. Secondly, we propose a sector scanning algorithm to guarantee the beam alignment. Finally, we design an operating mode scheduling algorithm to enable two neighbors to work in different operating modes simultaneously. We conduct extensive simulations under different network scenarios to validate the performance of the QDND. The numerical analysis and simulation results show that QDND outperforms existing directional neighbor discovery algorithms in terms of ATTD and MTTD in different numbers of nodes, beamwidths, and duty cycles.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":13946,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Communication Systems","volume":"38 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143489757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this issue, we propose the use of the artificial rabbit optimization (ARO) algorithm as an optimization strategy. The ARO algorithm dynamically adjusts and searches for weights and thresholds during the initialization and training of BP neural networks to find the global optimal solution. This approach efficiently explores the weight space and enhances the BP neural network's performance in ultrasonic localization tasks. Experiments have confirmed that the hybrid ARO-BP localization algorithm performs well in matching predicted trajectories with actual positions, especially in a 3D localization scenario constructed by six base stations. The algorithm produces excellent results in both line-of-sight (LOS) and non–line-of-sight (NLOS) environments, which are typical indoor settings. The ARO-BP neural network effectively reduces the average localization error and ensures high-precision localization under various transmission conditions and obstacle effects. In NLOS conditions, the positioning accuracy is improved by 16.05% with four tags and 10.92% with six tags, resulting in an average error reduction of 8.02 cm. The ARO-BP algorithm enhances positioning accuracy by 13.99% with four tags and 21.76% with six tags, resulting in an average error reduction of 12.01 cm. In conclusion, ARO-BP significantly improves the accuracy of ultrasonic localization in both LOS and NLOS indoor environments with reflections and diffractions.

The feedback overhead is one of the major bottlenecks for multi-user (MU) mMIMO systems as it increases with number of antennas and users. In the multicellular scenario, each and every BS schedules appropriate set of users based on the limited CSI feedback received from the users for achieving better throughput and fairness which are the prime objectives for such communication systems. To achieve the higher throughput, better fairness, and better scheduling gain with the least CSI, in this article, user grouping–based scheduling (UGS) strategy for multi-cell MU mMIMO FDD system is considered. The proposed UGS scheme achieves a better trade-off between the two prime objectives, that is, throughput and fairness. Moreover, hybrid precoding architecture is also used for this system as practically radio frequency (RF) chains are usually less in number to support less implementation complexity and budget. Our approach utilizes the angle of departure (AoD)–based adaptive codebook for controlling the amount of feedback. The variation of AoD is slow in nature as compared to path gains of the channel, which controls the feedback overhead. The proposed UGS using AoD codebook with limited channel feedback involves determining the beamspace path co-ordinates of each user from the AoD information fed back by users and then group the users into sets based on the AoD CSI. Specifically, UGS scheme is applied to reduce inter-user and inter-group interferences. By integrating an AoD adaptive subspace codebook with a hybrid precoding architecture and focusing on the dual objectives of maximizing throughput and fairness, we offer a novel solution that addresses the key challenges of inter-cell interference and limited CSI feedback.
