Consider the problem of jointly estimating the four parameters of the received I&Q signals: the amplitude imbalance, the DC offset for each channel, and the phase onsets between the I&Q channels. Using a Fourier series expansion of the received data, the equations for least square estimation based on the measured I&Q data in a loop back mode are derived. The estimated parameters are then used for the correction of the data and the improvement of the BER performance. Examples are given for the compensation of amplitude and phase imbalance in a QPSK receiver and higher order modulation.","PeriodicalId":404304,"journal":{"name":"2000 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference.

We consider the forward link of a single cell with orthogonal codes and voice traffic. The base station announces a price per unit transmitted power and a price per code, and the users respond according to their individual utilities. The objective is to set prices to maximize either total user utility or total revenue. The solution to the former problem (maximize utility) is presented. To study the latter problem we derive the large system revenue as the number of users and codes tend to infinity with fixed ratio. The large system revenue depends on the distribution of utilities and path loss across the user population, and may not be a unimodal function of the prices. Numerical results based on a simple model for user utility show how the optimal prices and revenue vary with the offered load.","PeriodicalId":404304,"journal":{"name":"2000 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference.

We demonstrate that with antenna arrays, the user capacity of a system can be dramatically increased, allowing multiple users to use the same narrowband spectrum simultaneously. In general, it may be difficult to determine the optimal transmission vectors. We consider a simple algorithm that often yields desirable solutions. We also consider the special case of co-located users. The communication system then reduces to a point-to-point communication link where the optimal transmission vectors can be determined under some conditions.","PeriodicalId":404304,"journal":{"name":"2000 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference.

The average probability of bit error is used as the objective function of the optimization. The signals are constrained to be strictly band-limited and to produce zero interchip interference. With a technique to characterize a band-limited chip waveform with a finite number of parameters, a sufficient condition for a system to have lower average probability of bit error is found. Some design strategies are derived that are based on the sufficient condition. Design examples are also provided using analytical methods and Monte-Carlo simulations.","PeriodicalId":404304,"journal":{"name":"2000 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference.

Second, we also propose a complete multiuser detection system based on the constant modulus algorithm, in the case of large channel dispersion (more than one symbol period).","PeriodicalId":404304,"journal":{"name":"2000 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference.

These techniques have become an indispensable tool for assessment of the performance of a system, evaluation of design alternatives, resource dimensioning, and system configuration. The Poisson distribution is a good representative for most telecommunication events. The hand-off calls in a cellular system have bursty characteristics which means they are happening with different rates. Therefore, there is a need for a model that is able to capture this specific behavior. In this paper, Markov modulated Poisson process (MMPP) is used to model the hand-off calls. Then, an analytical model of a cellular system is solved and the performance metrics are calculated. Finally, we compared our results with those obtained when considering only the Poisson model.","PeriodicalId":404304,"journal":{"name":"2000 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference.

The MAI in the received data vectors can be eliminated by projecting the received data onto the subspace orthogonal to the code space of interfering users. After this operation, an equivalent single user model with AWGN is obtained. Therefore various detection techniques, e.g., maximum SNR, subspace, constrained optimization, iterative least squares with projection (ILSP), etc. can be successfully applied to estimate transmitted symbols and the multipath channel of the desired user, but with reduced complexity and asymptotically optimal performance. The proposed receiver is simulated by ILSP and constrained optimization method and its performance compared with the RAKE receiver and the decorrelating receiver. Much lower bit error probability is achieved for a wide range of SNRs.","PeriodicalId":404304,"journal":{"name":"2000 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference. Conference Record (Cat.
