All these waveforms are potential candidates to support critical machine type communications (C-MTC) typically between devices. Based on real propagation channels, it first appears that UF -OFDM is more sensitive to delay spread compared to the others waveforms which have all similar performance.

The estimation is performed by reverse engineering the effects of the various propagation phenomena on the satellite signal. However, the accuracy of the estimation is affected by several factors: in first place the rapid fluctuations in signal amplitude caused by small-scale irregularities in the tropospheric refractive index; secondly, the perturbations of the orbit of GEO satellites, such as the gravitational effects of the moon and the sun, which, even if periodically counteracted by correction maneuvers, nevertheless cause residual orbit inclinations. The problem with all these factors is that they can cause large deviations in the clear-sky measurements that can be misinterpreted as rain events. In this paper we address these problems by employing two Kalman filters designed to track slow and fast changes of the received signal energy, so that the rain events can be reliably estimated.","PeriodicalId":272951,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127213515","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 reduce the computational overhead of the Volterra equalizer with an adaptive algorithm, we employ the structure of the nonlinearity post compensator using a look-up table (LUT) with the error detector. The error detector computes the amplitude and angle errors between the reference signal and the received signal to estimate the characteristics of a travelling wave tube amplifier (TWTA). By accumulating the computed errors iteratively, the LUT can estimate the compensation values. Finally, we can compensate the nonlinearity of the TWTA by reading these compensation values from the LUT. The effectiveness of the proposed low-complexity technique is verified by simulation results.","PeriodicalId":272951,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127276373","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 simulations, the approach shows good performance also for systems with a high number of antennas, but it does not consider that such systems might have less receiver chains than receive antennas. In this case, an analog mixing network would connect the antennas to the receiver chains, which results in low-dimensional observations. In this paper, we study how the machine learning approach can be used to estimate the channel from such compressed measurements.","PeriodicalId":272951,"journal":{"name":"2018 15th International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116460388","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}
