On the other hand, analog/digital hybrid beamforming, which can dramatically reduce power consumption, has been deemed as an energy efficient transceiver architecture. This paper investigates the problem of hybrid beamforming design with low-resolution PSs to achieve an energy efficient multi-user multi-input single-output (MUMISO) SWIPT system. Particularly, a base-station (BS), which is equipped with multiple antennas and hybrid beamforming architecture, simultaneously transfers information to one singleantenna information receiver (IR) and power to K distributed single-antenna energy receivers (ERs). While the IR has a target signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) requirement to assure the quality of service (QoS) of transmission, the K ERs have certain thresholds of receive signal power to guarantee the energy harvesting. We propose a novel iterative hybrid beamforming design algorithm to find the analog beamformer with constant amplitude and lowresolution phase constraints and the digital beamformer which can minimize the transmit power under both IR and ERs' requirements. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid beamforming design algorithm in the MU-MISO SWIPT systems.","PeriodicalId":423073,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126459238","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 paper, we focus on the problem of reducing the completion time of Virtual Reality (VR) applications for IoV. To this end, we propose a cooperative approach for parallel computing and transmission for VR. In our proposed scheme, a VR task is divided into two sub-tasks firstly. Then one of the two is offloaded to the vehicle via wireless transmission so that the two sub-tasks can be processed at the MEC server and the vehicle separately and simultaneously. We formulate the scheme as a nonlinear optimization problem to jointly determine computation offloading proportion, communication resource and computation resource allocation. Due to the NP-hard property of this problem, a joint offloading proportion and resource allocation optimization (JOPRAO) algorithm is designed to obtain the optimal solution. Simulation results demonstrate that latency of VR task completion time can be decreased significantly by offloading the task and resource allocation strategy reasonably.","PeriodicalId":423073,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122254084","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}

However, one of the main challenges of cooperative caching is the selfish nature of the user, and some users only cache what they are interested in and don't care about other people's needs. In this paper, we investigate a physical-social-based cooperative caching framework, considering the physical-social tie as a non-monetary incentive to motivate the data cache and share between users by using D2D communication. Specifically, we first define a novel physical-social tie, combining the physical factors and social relationship. After that, we formulate two mathematical programming models with or without the consideration of indirect physical-social tie, to find an optimal caching strategy with the target of maximizing the social group utility. Moreover, we adopt Six Degrees of Separation to analyze the indirect physical-social tie between users when these social users with direct physical-social tie cannot meet the date request of the user, and then devise an indirect social group formation algorithm (ISGFA) to obtain the indirect social group of the user. Finally, simulation results shows that the caching scheme obtained from our model is efficient and outperforms other caching schemes that without considering the physical-social tie.","PeriodicalId":423073,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133923986","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 paper, we focus on the mode filtering with a small HLA, which can be applied to the passive localization or source depth discrimination with a small HLA. Firstly, the pressure received on the HLA is describe by normal mode model, and several classical mode filters are introduced. Then considering the modal amplitudes are corresponding to the wavenumbers, we regard the mode filtering as generalized beamforming, which is performed in the wavenumber domain. Through constraining the maximum side lobe minimum, the modal amplitudes are beamformed. Finally, the performance of the proposed mode filter is evaluated relative to other methods in Monte Carlo simulation.","PeriodicalId":423073,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131498060","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}

Virtual network embedding or virtual machines placement refers to the problem of providing resources for tenants in CDCN. Most prior literature considers the conservative resource allocation strategy where the maximum resource requirement of virtual requests is always satisfied during their life time regardless of the resource requirement fluctuation. Such methods will definitely result in the resource wastage. By taking into account the time-varying resource requirement, we propose a novel virtual machine placement method, named MIE (Matching-based Integration for Embedding) in this paper. The key part of MIE is to enhance the resource utilization of physical machines (PM) and reduce their utilization fluctuation over time dimension by integrating the requirements with different variation tendencies. Our simulation experiments show that MIE can not only improve the resource utilization of physical machines, but also maintain the resource usage more stable. What's more, the number of active PMs is reduced and the acceptance ratio of virtual requests is enhanced.","PeriodicalId":423073,"journal":{"name":"2018 10th International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131217626","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}

By analyzing the structure of the objective problem, it is found that the EE optimization problem, which combines transmit power allocation (PA) with power splitting (PS) problem, can be predigested to an optimized one of PA.
