To accomplish these two tasks, we first define state equations representing the dynamics of channel and transmitted signals. Then, we obtain the state vector by concatenating the transmitted signals and the channel coefficients. This choice of state vector leads to a nonlinear observation equation and hence to the use of the extended Kalman filter (EKF) to estimate the states variables. We then develop the EKF and show that the proposed receiver is a generalization of many similar receivers for SISO channels. We also develop a reduced complexity version of the proposed algorithm. Simulation results show the performance gains of the proposed receiver when compared to other commonly used receivers.","PeriodicalId":197154,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE 9th Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125937434","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}

To preserve a high bit rate, channel shortening method is required to reduce the redundancy. Recently, channel shortening technique with differential encoded OFDM systems without the NT was introduced. This technique is very simple and achieves the channel shortening using only one symbol (the first emitted symbol). In this paper, we prove that, in the presence of null-tones (used in most OFDM-based communication standards), the performance of the previous technique decreases. Therefore, we propose an alternative solution that improves the receiverpsilas performance and preserves a high BER (Bit Error Rate) quality in presence of null-tones.","PeriodicalId":197154,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE 9th Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126765111","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}

Target QoS corresponds to a minimum user data rate, a target bit-error rate and a maximum outage probability. The only available CSI is the channel average gain of each user. This partial CSI can be viewed as a shadowed pathloss that yields a modified user distribution on which resource allocation is based. Under these constraints, we provide the optimal resource allocation that maximizes the user rate. Compared to full-CSI-based allocation schemes, our solution offers a significant complexity and feedback reduction as well as a good robustness to CSI estimation errors.","PeriodicalId":197154,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE 9th Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129406391","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 paper presents a non-data-aided (NDA) SNR estimation scheme for 32APSK using the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. Two variants of the EM algorithm are presented, first with an arbitrary initialization and a second version that is initialized by modifying an existing (sub-optimal) SNR estimation technique. We demonstrate a significantly faster convergence with the latter form of initialization. We compare the performance of this estimator to the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) of NDA SNR estimation and show that the estimator performs very close to the CRLB over all SNRs of practical interest even for block sizes of 100 symbols. The estimator has also been implemented on FPGAs and we show that the fixed point implementation also performs very close to the theoretical limit.","PeriodicalId":197154,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE 9th Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132996094","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}

Such a receiver is frequently encountered in wireless communications and in array processing, and the Signal to noise ratio (SNR) at its output is a popular performance index. The SNR can be modeled as a random quadratic form and in order to study this quadratic form, one can rely on well-know results in Random Matrix Theory, if one assumes that the dimension of the received and transmitted signals go to infinity, their ratio remaining constant. In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the SNR for a large class of multidimensional signals (MIMO, CDMA, MC-CDMA transmissions). More precisely, we provide a deterministic approximation of the SNR, that depends on the system parameters; furthermore, the fluctuations of the SNR around this deterministic approximation are shown to be Gaussian, with variance decreasing as 1/K, where K is the dimension of the transmitted signal.","PeriodicalId":197154,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE 9th Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133228552","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}

A coded adaptive LP-DMT system is presented in the PLC context with a loading algorithm which accommodates the channel coding gains in bit and energy calculations. The performance of a concatenated channel coding scheme, consisting of an inner Weipsilas 4-dimensional 16-states trellis code and an outer Reed-Solomon code, in combination with the proposed algorithm is analyzed.

To overcome this limitation, we propose a new precoding scheme that uses a fixed power scaling and avoids transmitting when the available power is not sufficient to perform channel equalization at the transmit side, an event referred to as outage. We present a performance analysis and optimization of this scheme and provide numerical comparisons with classical vector perturbation.","PeriodicalId":197154,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE 9th Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications","volume":"51 6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115979183","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}
