Through exploring the long-and-short-term intrinsic spatial and temporal correlation among a set of historic channel instances randomly obtained within a certain communication environment, channel prediction can help increase the CSI accuracy w.r.t. to that obtained from only the pilots, and thus save signaling overhead and computational cost. In this paper, we propose a novel generative Periodic-Activator-enabled Auto Encoder-LSTM network (GPAE-LSTMnet) for accurate channel prediction of mobile MIMO channels, which first compresses the high dimensional channel matrix with high-frequency features to a low dimensional space with relatively low-frequency feature space that has high data smoothness and is suitable for time-series sequence prediction. After that, a LSTM network is used to predict the channel in the low dimensional space, which ensures high accuracy and low computational cost. Experimental results show that our proposed learning structure outperforms existing methods especially when the dimension of CSI to be predicted is relatively high, the time interval of the CSI sequence is relatively long and the number of network parameters is highly limited.","PeriodicalId":283606,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 32nd Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126998943","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}

Multi-Connectivity (MC), i.e., using multiple communication paths simultaneously, can be a measure to enhance latency and reliability performance of wireless communication systems. MC schemes can be applied on different layers of the communication stack. While Physical (PHY) Layer MC schemes combine the paths at signal or symbol level, in higher layer schemes, i.e., MC schemes on MAC Layer or above, the paths are combined at packet level. Higher layer schemes provide more degrees of freedom for dynamic scheme adaptation, while PHY MC schemes have more information available. MC schemes on different layers need to be compared to evaluate their suitability to enhance latency and reliability performance in different scenarios. In this work system level simulations are performed with the network simulator ns-3 to compare PHY Layer MC schemes, i.e., selection combining (SC), maximum ratio combining (MRC) and joint decoding (JD), with higher layer MC schemes, i.e., MP-UDP with packet duplication (PD). Our results suggest that the gain of PHY Layer MC schemes increases with decreasing SINR. The higher layer MC schemes provide diversity not only on PHY but also on MAC and higher layers and could thus decrease access and queuing latency. The gain of MP-UDP increases with increasing network load. The insights obtained in this work can be used to develop dynamic MC schedulers that activate or deactivate certain MC schemes or switch between MC schemes on different layers based on the scenario.","PeriodicalId":283606,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 32nd Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130650504","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 investigates the secrecy-reliability performance trade-off (SRPT) for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-based millimeter wave (mmWave) networks. Herein, we consider two end-users, namely primary and secondary, which are served by an mmWave base station using downlink NOMA. Besides, a passive eavesdropper lying in the vicinity of these end-users attempts to intercept their legitimate message signals. For this set-up, we derive the closed-form expressions of the outage probability (OP) of a targeted end-user and intercept probability (IP) of the eavesdropper to analyze the SRPT of the system. We further propose a low-complexity average channel state information (CSI)-based power allocation strategy to improve the reliability of a targeted user while maintaining its information secrecy. Moreover, we obtain the condition under which NOMA guarantees superior secrecy performance than that of orthogonal multiple access (OMA) scheme.

Among the set of available services, ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) imposes stringent reliability and latency requirements. For improving the reliability under strict latency constraints in an error-prone downlink (DL), we have proposed a sidelink (SL)-assisted cooperative retransmission scheme, which takes advantage of multiple independently fading device-to-device (D2D) links. For the cooperative scheme, power control is useful for balanced user contributions and to control additional interference imposed to the system. Hence, this paper focuses on designing an optimal power control for the cooperative sidelink retransmission scheme, which gradually increments the power with every retransmission attempt. The objective is to utilize minimum power without compromising the desired latency and reliability performance. Results from system level evaluation reveal significant power savings in comparison to the reference power control scheme, which uses the maximum transmit power per device, limited by the DL path-loss power constraint only.","PeriodicalId":283606,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 32nd Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123685594","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 precise aim of this research is to reduce the link latency caused by the presence of the Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) mechanism. To this end, we propose a novel deep learning-based algorithm (Deep-HARQ), employing a deep neural network (DNN) with fully connected layers to estimate the decodability of the coded-received in-phase and quadrature (I/Q) signals prior to accomplishing the majority of the complex reception tasks. This enables the receiver to respond faster, allowing for the reduction of the signal round-trip time (RTT). To evaluate Deep-HARQ with a realistic dataset, we collected training and validation samples from a waveform compatible with 3GPP 5G NR Release 15 standards. The simulation results reveal a faster estimation response, with an accuracy enhancement of 12% compared to relevant algorithms in the literature.","PeriodicalId":283606,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 32nd Annual International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC)","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121567621","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}

Therefore, it is desirable to improve the frequency utilization efficiency of the traffic related to these service providers. In this paper, we provide a quantitative demonstration of the concept of traffic control using the load information on radio access networks that the mobile network operator can collect from its own network, the information on radio environment that the service provider collects, and the route planning of the vehicle to its destination. Specifically, based on the above information, traffic control will be performed within the range where the vehicle can move within the allowable delay time, such as downloading data at points with low load and good radio environment in the downlink, and controlling the streaming rate according to the load and radio environment in the uplink.
