We propose a low-complexity interference suppression strategy, in which an enhanced SIC is devised by introducing the feedback diversity to combat the error propagation in decision feedback loops. In order to constrain the complexity introduced by the multiple feedback (MF) processing, a strategy called shadow area constraint (SAC) is developed to save the additional complexity by avoiding redundant MF processing with reliable decisions. Based on the MF and SAC algorithms, in this paper, we derive a MF aided soft-input soft-output SIC detector for iterative (turbo) MIMO systems, the feedback diversity is introduced in the detection procedure of each spatial layer to compute the extrinsic information of the coded bits. The simulations performed on an iterative detection and decoding (IDD) scheme over frequency flat fading channels demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms the conventional SIC schemes with low computational effort.","PeriodicalId":307097,"journal":{"name":"2011 International ITG Workshop on Smart Antennas","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127664967","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 this setup it is known that optimum subcarrier and power allocation is achieved through 1) assigning each subcarrier to the user with highest channel gain at the given frequency, and 2) a Water-Filling procedure over the set of considered channel gains. This work addresses the scenario where stringent rate constraints are imposed for each user at the transmitter, scenario where the previous optimum resource allocation procedure no longer holds. The proposed iterative technique hinges on the aforementioned combinatorial heuristics, jointly with an iterative greedy subcarrier shifting procedure that accounts for the fulfillment of the established rate restrictions. Preliminary simulation results are provided for the extended vehicular ITU channel model, which shed light on the performance of the proposed allocation procedure.","PeriodicalId":307097,"journal":{"name":"2011 International ITG Workshop on Smart Antennas","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130589427","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 presented LA algorithms are EESM, RawBER and MMIB which utilize the post processing SINRs (Signal-to-Interference-and-Noise power Ratio) to compute the effective SNR (Signal-to-Noise power Ratio), uncoded bit error probability and mutual information as mapping function, respectively.

Such a method provides a robust and accurate approximation of the Maximum Likelihood estimation. However, as we show, unlike the standard techniques such as subspace methods the LASSO-based estimation is generally not consistent in high SNRs. In return, considering the true DOA's, we show that the method is consistent for certain configuration of the sources. This approach leads us to relate such a conditional consistency to the resolution concept. We next give a condition to verify the consistency of a given set of directions and simplify it to a computationally fast equivalent algorithm. The results show that the resolution in infinitely high SNR case for m sensors decreases by speed 1 over m.","PeriodicalId":307097,"journal":{"name":"2011 International ITG Workshop on Smart Antennas","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126783055","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 case of multiple data stream transmission is considered. The relay amplification matrix is predetermined so that the interference relay channel is converted to the conventional interference channel. Then two precoders supporting multiple stream transmission in the interference channel are applied and compared. Simulation results show that the IRC-FlexCoBF algorithm achieves a higher sum rate than the stream control method. Furthermore, a higher robustness of the IRC-FlexCoBF algorithm to inter-user interference is demonstrated. Finally, the gain in sum rate confirms the advantage of cooperatively sharing a relay compared to the case where the relay is accessed exclusively by two transceiver pairs operating in a time-division-multiple-access (TDMA) mode.","PeriodicalId":307097,"journal":{"name":"2011 International ITG Workshop on Smart Antennas","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134478367","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}
