Much less is known about the consequences when the standard Gaussian assumption is not fulfilled in realistic environments and, more importantly, the appropriate countermeasures. This paper studies and analyzes the performance of low-density parity-check codes (LDPC) in heavy-tailed, non-Gaussian noise channels that can be well adapted to impulsive noise modeling. This non-Gaussian noise are modeled by an indefinite variance symmetric alpha stable noise and the channel is Additive White Symmetric Alpha-Stable Noise channel. The asymptotic Performances of LDPC codes using different demappers over this channel and its capacity are proposed and studied.","PeriodicalId":436215,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 11th International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (SPAWC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131520928","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 address this problem, a signal processing strategy using several partial-interval FFTs instead of a conventional full-interval single FFT is proposed. Weighted combining of the partial FFT outputs coupled with standard OFDM processing, allows high performance symbol-by-symbol detection even in highly time-varying channels. Numerical examples show performance gains of several dB over a conventional receiver, thus indicating that an order of magnitude reduction in BER is achievable at a minimal increase in complexity.","PeriodicalId":436215,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 11th International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (SPAWC)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132811226","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 formulation of power control is well-motivated in cellular PCS and UMTS, as both voice and streaming media require guaranteed short-term rates. A key difficulty is that the problem can easily become infeasible, implying that some link(s) must be dropped to accommodate the others. Since joint admission and power control is NP-hard, a host of heuristics have been proposed and implemented over the years, mostly based on the concept of gradual removals. More recently, the joint problem was revisited from a better-motivated Lagrangian relaxation / convex approximation viewpoint. In this contribution, we first derive a corresponding branch & bound algorithm that uses convex approximation for the bounding step. This can tackle moderate problem sizes, yielding optimal solution at much reduced average complexity relative to enumeration. Then, we propose a simple gradual admissions policy that appears promising. Simulations suggest that it can attain admission performance on a par with more complex methods, such as convex approximation, which are in turn known to outperform gradual removals.","PeriodicalId":436215,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 11th International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (SPAWC)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131142014","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}

With the objective to minimize the expected linear quadratic cost over a finite horizon, we propose a joint design of the sensor measurement quantization, channel error protection, and optimal controller actuation. It was shown in our previous work that despite this optimization problem is known to be hard in general, an iterative design procedure can be derived to obtain a local optimal solution. However, in the vector case, optimizing the encoder for a fixed controller is in general not practically feasible due to the curse of dimensionality. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that uses the approximate dynamic programming (ADP) to implement a computationally feasible encoder updating policy with promising performance. Especially, we introduce encoder updating rules adopting the rollout approach. Numerical experiments are carried out to demonstrate the performance obtained by employing the proposed iterative design procedure and to compare it with other relevant schemes.","PeriodicalId":436215,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE 11th International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (SPAWC)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130595550","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}
