In FD, the benefit of simultaneous transmission and receiving of signals comes at the price of strong self-interference (SI). In this work, we are primarily interested in suppressing the SI using an adaptive filter namely adaptive projected subgradient method (APSM) in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) of functions. Using the projection concept as a powerful tool, APSM is used to model and consequently remove the SI. A low-complexity and fast-tracking algorithm is provided taking advantage of parallel projections as well as the kernel trick in RKHS. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated on real measurement data. The method illustrates the good performance of the proposed adaptive filter, compared to the known popular benchmarks. They demonstrate that the kernel-based algorithm achieves a favorable level of digital SIC while enabling parallel computation-based implementation within a rich and nonlinear function space, thanks to the employed adaptive filtering method.","PeriodicalId":423807,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 23rd International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communication (SPAWC)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126165142","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}

Such measurements are processed by artificial neural networks with different snapshot and sequence-processing architectures to track the positions of the terminals. For model training, we consider a crowdsensing data acquisition scheme to effortlessly gather the desired measurements with the synchronized location tags. Realistic ray-tracing based evaluations on the so-called Madrid map at 28 GHz millimeter-wave band are provided, to assess the achievable performance while also varying the amount of uncertainties within the data. The obtained results show that radio positioning is feasible with accuracy in the order of 1 meter, or even below, also in challenging NLOS scenarios if the data and measurement uncertainties are small. The results also show that the sequence processing approach offers superior performance under practical measurement uncertainties.","PeriodicalId":423807,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 23rd International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communication (SPAWC)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126396867","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 high-dimensional nature of channel state information (CSI) data, however, imposes significant communication overhead between BSs for joint learning of the MP-CC. To reduce communication overhead and foster locality of CSI data, we explore federated learning (FL) approaches for distributed learning of joint multipoint channel charts. In the proposed approach, each BS learns an individual model and a shared model, where the individual model parameters are unique to each BS and the shared model parameters are communicated to a central server for aggregation. By sharing only weights of the shared model after each training episode, the communication overhead between BSs can be significantly reduced. We provide experimental results on a convolution autoencoder architecture with simulated beam-space CSI data, and compare the FL approach against a fully centralized architecture.","PeriodicalId":423807,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 23rd International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communication (SPAWC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128419114","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}

Most existing studies on device activity detection either make no use of channel statistics or assume Rayleigh fading for simplicity. Device activity detection under more general fading models remains open. To shed some light, this paper considers Rician fading and proposes a maximum likelihood estimation (MLE)-based device activity detection method. First, we formulate the estimation of device activities as an MLE problem. Then, based on the coordinate descent (CD) method, we develop an iterative algorithm, where all coordinate optimization problems are solved analytically, to obtain a stationary point of the non-convex MLE problem. Finally, numerical results demonstrate the notable gains of the proposed method over the existing solutions and offer important design insights into practical massive grant-free access for mMTC. The results in this paper generalize those for Rayleigh fading and have practical sense.","PeriodicalId":423807,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 23rd International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communication (SPAWC)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130795482","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 small wavelengths in these frequencies enable spatial multiplexing with massive data rates at long distances. Such systems are also being considered for multi-path non-LOS (NLOS) environments. In these scenarios, standard channels models based on plane waves cannot capture the curvature of each wave front necessary to model spatial multiplexing. This work presents a novel and simple multi-path wireless channel parametrization where each path is replaced by a LOS path with a reflected image source. The model fully captures the spherical nature of each wave front and uses only two additional parameters relative to the standard plane wave model. Moreover, the parameters can be easily captured in standard ray tracing. The accuracy of the approach is demonstrated on detailed ray tracing simulations at 28GHz and 140GHz in a dense urban area.","PeriodicalId":423807,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 23rd International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communication (SPAWC)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131472613","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}
