To support an increasing number of antennas, a CloudRAN approach that maximally aggregates base station functionality of the different antenna sites is the most economically feasible. To support light weight antenna units, analog radio-over-fiber is most promising. To mitigate linearity constraints of optical modulators, an all-digital transmitter can be used. In this paper, LTE transmission is demonstrated over 200 m OM4 multimode fiber using a VCSEL and a resonant transimpedance amplifier. The VCSEL is directly modulated with a high-speed 2-level signal generated in real-time on an FPGA. After reception of this signal, the adjacent channel power ratio was measured to be −45.6 dB. This is within the LTE specifications, proving this is a cost and power effective solution for next generation wireless networks.","PeriodicalId":183694,"journal":{"name":"2017 Advances in Wireless and Optical Communications (RTUWO)","volume":"29 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126056318","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}

All nodes are assumed to be equipped by one antenna and the channels are exposed to Nakagami-m fading. Bit error probability (BEP) of the considered system is analytically derived for both EH protocols cited above. For TS protocol, a list of modulation mixture is provided for different values of the time allocation parameter a. Ideal EH case is considered for comparison purposes.

In this work different receiver-side interference compensation techniques are studied in a spatially multiplexed fiber-optic transmission through 0.5 km multi-mode fiber with a gross bit-rate of 5 Gbps using intensity modulation and direct detection. Broadband successive interference cancellation (SIC) and broadband zero forcing (ZF) equalization are compared as electronic interference compensation methods in a (2×2) MIMO transmission. The results show that ordered SIC can significantly improve the transmission quality compared to the ZF equalization approach in the studied testbed configuration. Also, spatial filtering as an interference reduction technique is studied with respect to its effect on the bit-error rate (BER) performance, showing that in the analyzed channel scenario the use of such a filter is beneficial. Using a spatial filter improves the mode group separation at the receiver and hence reduces the MIMO signal processing complexity.","PeriodicalId":183694,"journal":{"name":"2017 Advances in Wireless and Optical Communications (RTUWO)","volume":"313 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126903790","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}

Cooperative communication is considered to be capable of effectively meeting this rapid growth where the use of relays improves the throughput and ensures successful transmission to all terminals in a given system. In this paper, a Two-way Decode and Forward Relaying for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) mobile systems (TWR-DF-oFdMA) is proposed. The system consists of mobile terminals (MTs) divided into near nodes and far nodes in which the base station directly transmits to the near nodes and indirectly transmits to the far nodes by the cooperation of the near nodes which act as relays. The performance of the system is measured in terms of the bit error rate and the sum rate. It is found that the performance of TWR-DF-OFDMA is much better than that of conventional OFDMA. Furthermore, it is shown that the number of NNs in the system affects the performance of TWR-DF-OFDMA and an optimum number was found to give the highest performance of TWR-DF-OFDMA compared to conventional OFDMA.","PeriodicalId":183694,"journal":{"name":"2017 Advances in Wireless and Optical Communications (RTUWO)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126675206","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}

MIMO-CEM has a transmitter system with an efficient non-linear power amplifier and a receiver system with a 1-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) sampled at the Intermediate Frequency (IF). In spite of the great reduction in power consumption and hardware complexity as a result of using 1-bit ADC at the receiver side, a big degradation in the bit error rate performance (BER) is observed. This was a result of using 1-bit ADC which cause a severe quantization noise. Therefore, an efficient error correction coding becomes a major to solve this problem. In this paper, a comprehensive study for channel coding technique for MIMO-CEM system is done to select the most suitable channel coding technique to improve MIMO-CEM BER performance. The evaluation of this study was done over a multipath Rayleigh fading channel with both Minimum Shift Keying (MSK) modulation and Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK) modulation. The simulation results show a significant improvement in the BER performance at low values of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) when LDPC channel coding is used while, the Convolutional Code (CC) with Viterbi Decoder achieves the best BER performance at high SNR values.","PeriodicalId":183694,"journal":{"name":"2017 Advances in Wireless and Optical Communications (RTUWO)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129528062","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}

Since higher data rates, lower latency and increased fairness for users are the main goals, an efficient scheduling algorithm has to be used. In this paper an evaluation of the performance of an indoor network is realised using the Realistic Indoor Environment Generator (RIEG), when 20 different Throughput Quantile Averaging Methods (TQAMs) for the downlink Resource Allocation Algorithm (RAA) called Proportional Fair (PF) are used. The TQAMs are compared by using a trustworthy metric called Comparative Factor (CF), which evaluates the overall performance of the mobile network, simultaneously taking into account the average throughput of the indoor users, the fairness of resource distribution and the outage ratio. Each type of the TQAMs takes a different part of the previous throughputs to evaluate the average throughput used by the PF scheduling algorithm in order to allocate network resources to the users. The experimental results show that the TQAMs which incorporate bigger groups of previous throughputs are more stable when the number of users increases. When the min-max groups are taken into account an increase of overall throughput is observed, while using the min or max groups leads to an increase in fairness. The performance of the cell-edge users is improved the most when the max or middle part of the previous throughputs is taken into account.","PeriodicalId":183694,"journal":{"name":"2017 Advances in Wireless and Optical Communications (RTUWO)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132072500","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}
