The proposed antenna consists of a pie-shaped radiating patch fed by a 50-Ω microstrip line and its complementary metal structure connected to the ground plane. With properly adjusting the angle (θ) of the pie-shaped notch and the pie-shaped stub on the ground plane, an alternative function of the antenna can be achieved. For θ = 0°, the antenna has a wide -10 dB impedance bandwidth of 4848 MHz (about 102% centered at 4.77 GHz). For θ = 25°, the wideband QSCA can be transformed to a progressive dual-band antenna and thus provides two separate impedance bandwidth of 292 MHz (about 11.9% centered at 2.45 GHz) and 1548 MHz (about 28.1% centered at 5.5 GHz). The measured results of the proposed antenna also exhibit respectable radiating patterns and gain values.","PeriodicalId":383105,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132959380","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 the FTP traffic model, a user is assigned a finite payload to transmit when it arrives, and it leaves the system after the payload transmission is completed. This model is more realistic than the full-buffer traffic model, which is assumed in previous NOMA investigations. Furthermore, we evaluate the system-level throughput with various user scheduling criteria. Under the realistic finite-payload traffic model, a very high throughput gain in the vicinity of the cell using NOMA can be translated to improve the cell-edge user experience. Through extensive computer simulations, we clarify the behavior of NOMA with a SIC in the realistic traffic model in conjunction with various user scheduling criteria. The simulation results suggest that NOMA with a SIC is a promising multiple access scheme for systems beyond 4G.","PeriodicalId":383105,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127863600","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}

Many techniques for solving the QoS routing problem in MANETs are available. Ant colony optimization is a promising solution that can be applied in wireless ad hoc networks. However, existing routing protocols that require additional control message exchange between neighbors to compute QoS parameters are too slow to react to fast topology change and increase network load and overhead. To decrease the overhead introduced to collect information from neighbor nodes and to obtain an accurate estimate of QoS parameters, we use the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to obtain these values locally. Artificial ants evaluate these values to find the paths that satisfy application QoS requirements. The simulation results implemented using the ns-3 network simulator show that QoS routing based on ant colony optimization (QoRA) is scalable and performs well.","PeriodicalId":383105,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"PP 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126357809","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}

Several high-resolution algorithms have been proposed for this scenario that improve the estimation accuracy of the traditional schemes and simultaneously increase the number of resolvable signals. In this paper, we derive a closed-form expression of the deterministic Cramér-Rao bound (CRB), termed deterministic C-NC CRB, as a benchmark for this new class of algorithms. The obtained result allows to assess the maximum achievable performance gain in this scenario. The derivation is based on the Slepian-Bangs formula, which is still applicable due to the deterministic data assumption. Simulation results show that the C-NC CRB decreases when the number of strictly non-circular signals increases within a fixed number of sources. In this case, also the individual bounds of the circular signals decrease, which suggests that the presence of strictly non-circular sources reduces the estimation error of the circular signals.","PeriodicalId":383105,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126314729","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 rectilinear source is characterised by having a circularity coefficient of unity and it represents a real-valued source with an arbitrary phase shift. Real-time detection of rectilinearity has been introduced as a new challenge in communications since identifying the rectilinearity of the sources would help designers choose between strictly linear and widely linear beamformers. The proposed real-time detector of rectilinearity, first separates the sources with an online blind source separation (BSS) algorithm, then estimates the circularity coefficient of the separated sources using a real-time circularity tracker. We exploit the result that the variance of the circularity tracker is null for rectilinear signals to tune the algorithm for rapid convergence and robust detection. Simulations on synthetic communication data support the analysis and claims.","PeriodicalId":383105,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122204770","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 Linear Minimum Mean Squared Error (LMMSE) estimator is considered for computing estimates of the channel frequency responses over the entire frequency band and shown to be robust to ill-conditioning associated with the SAS. The application of the different SAS to FBMC-OQAM is evaluated via simulations in an unsynchronized scenario. The performances are compared with the corresponding fully synchronized CP-OFDM scenario. The results demonstrate the robustness of FBMC-OQAM to asynchronism and reveal the advantages of each SAS in various situations.","PeriodicalId":383105,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122226107","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}
