Application of MIMO requires pilot and data signals to be transmitted in the downlink (DL) from each of the two antennas of the base station (BS). At certain time instants, however, single antenna (SA) transmissions may yield instantaneously improved performance compared to MIMO, even though MIMO improves performance at other times. Performance gains of discontinuous secondary pilot transmissions and single antenna transmissions to MIMO MS schemes are investigated by simulation. Practical implementation issues are analyzed to validate deployment feasibility and estimate practical throughput gains compared to the simulation results.","PeriodicalId":333610,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 75th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Spring)","volume":"404 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115920006","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 this end, we study and compare the performance of dual-hop MRN assisted transmission, dual-hop transmission assisted by a fixed relay node (FRN) deployed on the street, as well as of the baseline single-hop direct transmission. For an accurate comparison, we optimize the FRN position in terms of outage probability (OP). This position is a function of the pathloss, transmit power and vehicle penetration loss (VPL). The problem is investigated for Rayleigh fading under a fixed cell coverage. When VPL is moderate to high, MRN assisted transmission greatly outperforms transmission assisted by an FRN as well as direct transmission, hence it is very promising for future wireless systems.","PeriodicalId":333610,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 75th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Spring)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132326779","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}

We derive the closed-form asymptotic expressions to approximate the outage probability and SER in the high SNR regime, respectively.

To alleviate localization error caused by RDR anisotropy, most of existing works adopt multiple RDR algorithms. However, we have found that the arbitrary RDR selection in these algorithms can lead to large localization error. Moreover, localization accuracy can be further enhanced by utilizing information provided by more Access Points (APs). To address these problems, we propose a Probabilistic Neural Network based localization algorithm in this paper. The algorithm features two steps: Global Optimization and Regional Compensation, during which all APs exchange information about the Blind Node (BN) to locate it collaboratively. Simulation result shows that the proposed algorithm can achieve a localization accuracy 35% higher than that of multiple RDR algorithms.","PeriodicalId":333610,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 75th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Spring)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134389313","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}

Three candidate MIMO enhancement architectures are proposed that differ with respect to the principles of code word mapping onto the two spatial streams for rank-2 transmission. The evaluation demonstrates MIMO throughput gains relative to SIMO ranging between 30% and 40%. The MIMO architecture with independent transmission of two code words over the two spatial channels is demonstrated to be the most effective because of its ability independently to adapt the data rate on each spatial channel to the instantaneous channel conditions. The gains are realized at high RoT (rise over thermal) values, indicating isolated small cells with low UE densities as the likely deployment scenario for HSUPA MIMO.","PeriodicalId":333610,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 75th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Spring)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127564445","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 using Maximum Likelihood Detection (MLD) for MU-MIMO detection, we need to know the modulation type of the transmitted signals. However in 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) system, the user to whom MU-MIMO is applied cannot be informed about the modulation type of the signals for a multiplexed interference user. Therefore, linear filters such as Zero Forcing (ZF) and Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) are typically applied. In this paper, we propose an MLD-based MU-MIMO detection method with modulation-type estimation. In this method, we perform MLD by assuming possible modulation types to calculate metrics, and by comparing them, we determine the modulation type of the signals for an interference user. From the computer simulation results, we find that the proposed method can obtain better performance than MMSE with a slight increase in complexity from SU-MIMO detection.","PeriodicalId":333610,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 75th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Spring)","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133548601","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}
