Proper selection of analog precoder/combiner not only suppresses large part of interference, but also ensures that less coordination is required for digital precoder/combiner design. We design analog precoder/combiner for each data stream in such a way that its signal strength is maximized; this strategy also minimizes large part of inter-stream interference that may arise due to the main lobe of analog beamformer.

In this work, we study a buffer-aided single-UAV mobile relaying system which assists communication between a source node and a destination node on the ground. Specifically, in a slotted time system where each time slot experiences quasi-static channel condition, the buffer-aided UAV relay’s flight trajectory and the allocation of the time slots for transmission and reception are jointly optimized, subject to the information causality and UAV mobility constraints. The formulated problem is non-convex and the two sets of design variables, i.e., the trajectory position variables and the time slot allocation variables, are coupled. In order to make the problem tractable, we relax and decompose the original problem into two subproblems, i.e., the flight trajectory optimization subproblem and the time slot allocation subproblem, such that the two sets of design variables are decoupled. The two subproblems are optimized in an alternating manner until convergence to obtain solution to the joint optimization problem. Simulation results show that the proposed iterative alternating optimization algorithm is efficient and fast converging.","PeriodicalId":443582,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference Workshops (WCNCW)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122706445","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 this end, a new paradigm is conceived for mMTC by employing spatial modulation at the devices for enhancing throughput and massive multi-input multi-output at the base station with improved detection performance. However, the associated massive access poses the intractable active device and data detection challenge. In this paper, we formulate the massive access problem as sparse signal recovery problem by exploiting the sporadic traffic of mMTC. To solve this problem, we propose a joint structured approximate message passing (JS-AMP) algorithm for joint active device and data detection. Specifically, we use AMP to decouple the superimposed received signal into uncoupled scalar elements. Furthermore, to achieve enhanced data detection performance, we compute the posterior estimation of each scalar element by using the structured sparsity of spatial modulated symbols. Moreover, we estimate the device activity by exploiting expectation maximization, where the block sparsity of successive time slots is considered for improving performance. Finally, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed solution exhibits a significant performance gain over the state-of- the-art solutions.","PeriodicalId":443582,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference Workshops (WCNCW)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122081695","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}

Therefore, this paper proposes two different NOMA- based user clustering techniques for uplink transmissions aiming to reduce latency for time stringent services.

Typically, the NF has the slowly time- varying property and frequency-dependency, and several NF estimation algorithms, including forward consecutive mean excision (FCME) algorithm-based method, have been proposed. However, these methods did not deeply consider the slowly time varying property of the NF and is computationally inefficient.

This paper focuses on the specific hybrid network with FD BS and TDD UE. First, applying the hybrid network must ensure that the intra-cell co-frequency interference (CI) has been suppressed. To achieve this goal, a spatial isolation method and its corresponding resource allocation are proposed in the specific hybrid network with FD BS and TDD UE. Then, to evaluate the gain of the hybrid network compared with the TDD network, the spectral efficiency is derived and analyzed. Theoretical and simulation results show that the gain of hybrid network increases with the number of users and decreases with the number of sub-regions when compared with the TDD network. Furthermore, the uplink gain increases with the ratio of the number of time slots for the uplink to that for the downlink (UDR) in the TDD frame, and can be greater than 2 when UDR is adequately small, while the downlink is reversed. However, the total gain of spectral efficiency is smaller than 2, which is the FD upper bound restricted by FD system structure. Therefore, when compared with the symmetric and time-invariant traffic, it is more efficient to apply FD in networks with asymmetric and time-variant traffic where the performance of the TDD network is severely limited.","PeriodicalId":443582,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference Workshops (WCNCW)","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134238261","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 JOWCA algorithm consists of vehicle- to-vehicle (V2X) matching and MEC computation capability allocation. In the V2X matching, a Graph-based Interference Cancellation (Graph-IC) scheme is proposed to allocate Resource Blocks (RBs) for vehicle-to- infrastructure (V2I) links and vehicle- to-vehicle (V2V) links to mitigate co-channel interference. The Graph-IC contains an adaptive interference threshold modified Heuristic Clustering (HC) algorithm and Hungarian algorithm.
