Next, we propose power allocation technique to maximize the capacity upper bound that is shown to be effective and close to optimum solution. Comparison between FD and HD relaying systems using optimum power allocation is carried out. Simulation results show that depending on SNR values, it is better to tolerate some loop-back interference with the FD relaying rather than to consume channel resources in HD one. In addition, the estimation error effect is more destructive for low power. While, by increasing the transmitted power, the loop-back interference noise dominates the channel estimation error.","PeriodicalId":187121,"journal":{"name":"2015 23rd Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114337498","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}

Recently, in modern cellular communication systems, such as LTE-Advanced, the Coordinated Multi-Point Transmission technology is considered to improve the cell-edge users performance. In downlink of a CoMP scenario, the joint transmission can significantly reduce the interference. In this technique, the data signal is jointly transmitted from multiple-cell to the user equipment. However, in this technique the statistical properties of MIMO channel from the cells to the user affect the performance of MIMO detector, which can be expressed by the condition number. This paper presents an analysis of condition number of multiple MIMO channel in joint transmission scenario and proposes a low complexity adaptive LR-MMSE MIMO detection scheme. The computational complexity of proposed detection scheme is reduced by more than 36.5% in comparison to conventional LR-aided detector, while its performance is close to the performance of conventional LR-aided MIMO detector.","PeriodicalId":187121,"journal":{"name":"2015 23rd Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114476483","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}

This notion calls for two or more distinct measurement sets for computation of Thevenin parameters assuming that the power system stays unchanged during the data collection, which is not essentially true. This paper presents a new method for computation of voltage stability margin associated with system load buses using voltage and current magnitudes. The proposed method is independent from the system variations; thus, it does not suffer from the shortcoming of regular Thevenin equivalent method. The new methodology is based on this observation that in the stable region of voltage stability curve, the normalized absolute value of the rate of change of voltage magnitude is greater than that of the current magnitude. This observation is supported by the theoretical analysis as well. To demonstrate performance of the developed method, a simple radial network and the IEEE 14-bus test system are examined.","PeriodicalId":187121,"journal":{"name":"2015 23rd Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114886609","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}

When impulse response of channel is long the spectral efficiency of OFDM becomes very low due to using cyclic prefix (CP). Another multicarrier system, which achieves high spectral efficiency, is based on using filter-bank (FB). However, due to using real symbols in OFDM/OQAM, which is high spectral efficient FB-based system, it is not suitable for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques in which complex symbols are employed. In this paper, we proposed a new multicarrier system, in which FB and unique word OFDM (UW-OFDM) techniques are combined together; call FB-UW-OFDM. Since complex symbols are used in the FB-UW-OFDM system, the space-time coding scheme can be employed. The proposed system is following the approach of [1] (we call it FB-CP-OFDM) in which CP-OFDM techniques has been used instead of UW-OFDM. Although the FB-UW-OFDM system has the same bandwidth efficiency of FB-CP-OFDM, as computer simulation shows, it has better performance. Moreover, employing UW-OFDM provides the possibility of channel estimation and synchronization due to using a deterministic unique word in FB-UW-OFDM system.","PeriodicalId":187121,"journal":{"name":"2015 23rd Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114684737","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}

The same as other multicarrier systems, GFDM suffers from a high peak to average power ratio (PAPR). To attack PAPR problem, in this paper, we propose a polynomial based companding method with iterative expansion that is called polynomial-based companding technique (PCT). Based on our simulation results, a great amount of PAPR reduction can be achieved through utilization of our proposed technique. Through simulations, we have also investigated the bit error rate (BER) performance of the system while adopting our PCT method.

The system's states are also divided into two parts with respect to their required stabilization properties and only one part is forced to converge to zero. The faster the line-of-sight angular rate converges to zero, the more stability margin is obtained. Therefore, the resulting guidance law is able to nullify the line-of-sight angular rate in finite time. The finite time convergence property and robustness of the proposed law is also proved using extended Lyapunov stability theorem. Moreover, the control loop dynamics are considered as a first order differential equation due to their significant contribution to stability of the guidance system.
