In this study, we investigate the operation of a user-number threshold-based base station (BS) on/off control, in which the BS turns off when the number of users is less than a specific threshold value. This paper presents a space-based analysis of the BS on/off control system to which a stochastic geometric approach is applied. In particular, we derive the approximated closed-form expression of the coverage probability of a homogeneous network (HomNet) with the user-number threshold-based BS on/off control. Moreover, the optimal user-number threshold for maximizing coverage probability is analytically derived. In addition to HomNet, we also derive the approximated closed-form expression of the coverage probability and the optimal user-number thresholds for a heterogeneous network (HetNet). The results show that HetNet, the analysis of which seems intractable, can be analyzed in the form of a linear combination of HomNets with weighted densities. In addition, the optimal user-number threshold of each tier is obtained independently from other tiers. The modeling and analysis presented in this paper are not only limited to the case of user-number threshold-based on/off control, but also applicable to other novel on/off controls with minor modifications. Finally, by comparing the analytical results with the simulated results, the theoretical contributions of this study are validated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper considers the $\mathscr{L}_{2}$ string stability analysis and controller synthesis for vehicle platooning under jamming attacks and interferences from other communication channels. Jamming attacks and interferences for vehicle platooning systems are modeled as periodic denial of service attacks. Further, the vehicle platooning with denial of service attacks is modeled as a distributed switching system where an average dwell time approach is adopted for the stability analysis. Under the distributed switching system framework, this paper presents a co-design paradigm for the vehicle platooning. The distributed event-triggered method (ETM) and controllers are presented to guarantee $\mathscr{L}_{2}$ string stability, which can ensure that the output cannot be amplified along the vehicle platooning. Sufficient conditions for $\mathscr{L}_{2}$ string stability are then provided to guide the co-design of the ETM and controllers, which can be efficiently obtained by solving LMIs. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed co-design approach in addressing the denial of service attacks for vehicle platooning systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

With low-cost energy consumption, the reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technique is a potential solution to the real-time data processing for intelligent transportation systems (ITSs). In this paper, an intelligent transmissive surface is introduced into the vehicular communications, enabling vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) signals to penetrate the intelligent RIS to access the base station (BS) on the opposite side of the vehicle. Considering that the vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication reuses the spectrum spanned for V2I link, we investigate the ergodic capacity optimization problem for the vehicle performing V2I communications with the assistance of RIS, while meeting the low-latency and high-reliability requirements of the V2V link. The RIS transmission coefficients and power allocation of vehicles are jointly optimized, for the management of the desired and undesired vehicular communication links. Moreover, the expression of optimal phase shifts is derived in a closed-form, which reveals that the performance gain brought by RIS is proportional to the number of intelligent elements, while inversely proportional to the distance from vehicle-to-BS, in a quadratic form. Moreover, in the case of discrete phase shifts, an intelligent algorithm is proposed for the beamforming design at RIS. Afterwards, with the objective to maximize the ergodic capacity of the V2I link, the optimal power allocation is also proposed. Simulation results confirm the accuracy of the proposed resource allocation strategy, and that the system performance in terms of the ergodic V2I capacity can be significantly improved by the RIS.

In this paper, an antenna synthesis process is investigated for Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) application. The wireless communication between Road Side Units (RSUs) and On Board Units (OBUs) located in the vehicles enables smart mobility. However, to support high speed vehicles and high data rates, a wider coverage area by the RSU antennas projected on the highway is required. This is defined by the radiation patterns of the RSU antennas. On a multi-lane highway, interference from the adjacent lanes is a critical issue which determines the communication reliability in terms of Single-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR). Hence, in this paper, an interference-aware antenna synthesis process is proposed and a planar array is optimized based on the objective function of obtaining a wide coverage area in terms of SINR distribution for a given modulation scheme. The proposed antenna array enhances the reliable communication area and provides improved SINR distribution across the lane for misaligned vehicles from the center of the lane. The results indicate that the proposed antenna array performs better than the existing designs in terms of communication reliability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Multi-numerology transmission is a promising multiple access scheme for flexible communication systems, which can simultaneously support users with different service requirements. To this end, both inter- and intra-numerology interference (inter-NI and intra-NI) should be suppressed, which is not straightforward. This paper proposes a novel zero-forcing (ZF) precoding design, which perfectly eliminates all the interference, for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with multi-numerology. First of all, we express the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) of the multi-numerology system with spectrum sharing. From the SINR representation, we identify the channels that precoders must nullify to suppress inter-NI. After that, we propose a ZF precoder suppressing both inter-NI and intra-NI perfectly. The lower bound of ergodic achievable rate with perfect channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) is analyzed. Based on the lower bound of ergodic achievable rate, we present the feasible rate region. Also, we propose two power allocation schemes: user fairness and the ergodic sum rate maximization. The simulation results demonstrate the advantage of the proposed precoding design and verify our analysis results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article studies the transmit beamforming security in the dual-functional radar-communication (DFRC) system, where the radar beam also serves as the artificial jamming to suppress potential eavesdropper channels. Unlike previous researches, which assumed that the lone target might be a potential eavesdropper on the adversary side, this paper analyses a more generic scenario in which the eavesdroppers’ channel state information (CSI) is unknown. The eavesdropping rate should be limited to guarantee transmission confidentiality, which is intractable owing to the unknown CSI. To address this issue, we present the long-term eavesdropping signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) as a more tractable security metric. Based on the long-term eavesdropping SINR, the sum rate maximization (SRM) and jamming power maximization (JPM) transmission scheme are investigated. For the SRM scheme, we propose a zero-forcing (ZF) suboptimal algorithm to solve the non-convex fractional programming (FP) problem, and for the JPM scheme, the resultant problem is solved via the semidefinite relaxation (SDR) technique. Finally, numerical results validate the effectiveness of the proposed beamforming approaches. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The terahertz (THz) waves with enormous bandwidth can be used along with the existing sub-6GHz and millimeter wave (mmWave) bands to achieve the ever evolving ecosystem of applications that need to be supported by the modern wireless networks. This paper investigates a user-centric dynamic base station (BS) clustering design for a hybrid network where THz, mmWave, and sub-6GHz BSs coexist. Invoking the proposed clustering model, the BS cooperation within each band is made possible by considering long term channel variations and all the surrounding BSs within a cluster with tunable size. A typical user is associated with the best BS cluster, from either a sub-6GHz, mmWave or THz tier based on the maximum signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) criterion or the maximum rate criterion. Using tools from stochastic geometry, we assess the performance of the proposed user-centric hybrid system in terms of SINR and rate coverage performances, while accounting for: band specific propagation models, directional beamfroming, and BSs random locations. The accuracy of the analytical results is validated with Monte-Carlo simulations. The obtained results recognize a clear coverage/rate trade-off where a high fraction of THz BSs improves the rate significantly but may degrade the coverage performance. Thus, with carefully planned networks, enabling user-centric BS cooperation for hybrid wireless systems can achieve ultra-high rates while maintaining sufficient coverage in sixth-generation (6G) networks.

In a vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) based on IEEE 802.11p, the performance of the communication link is heavily influenced by interference. To quantify the impact of interference, analytical models usually explicitly or implicitly assumed the interference range beyond which interference is ignored. We find that the potential maximum interference range should be related to the minimum interference power that the device can perceive. However, most previous works on VANET performance modeling simply assumed a fixed interference range. The most recently proposed effective interference range dependent on the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) threshold may appear to exceed the potential maximum interference range, resulting in an overestimation of the impact of interference. This paper proposes the SINR related Effective Distance Constrained by the Maximum interference range-based (SED-CM) model for IEEE 802.11p VANET performance evaluation on the Highway. First, we give the potential maximum interference range setting by studying the empirical distribution of interference distance corresponding to the minimum interference power in NS2 simulation. The performance metrics are then derived. The proposed SED-CM model is further extended to the intersection scenario. We conducted extensive NS2 simulations to evaluate the proposed model and compare it with three typical models. Results show that the SED-CM model presents the best evaluation ability. Moreover, we experimentally analyzed the effect of vehicle speed on the performance of VANET by mapping the vehicle speed to the vehicle density. Results show that a faster beacon rate is required to meet the reliability requirement of safety applications with the increase in vehicle speed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recently, model-free power control approaches have been developed to achieve the near-optimal performance of cell-free (CF) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) with affordable computational complexity. In particular, deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is one of such promising techniques for realizing effective power control. In this paper, we propose a model-free method adopting the deep deterministic policy gradient algorithm (DDPG) with feedforward neural networks (NNs) to solve the downlink max-min power control problem in CF massive MIMO systems. Our result shows that compared with the conventional convex optimization algorithm, the proposed DDPG method can effectively strike a performance-complexity trade-off obtaining 1,000 times faster implementation speed and approximately the same achievable user rate as the optimal solution produced by conventional numerical convex optimization solvers, thereby offering effective power control implementations for large-scale systems. Finally, we extend the DDPG algorithm to both the max-sum and the max-product power control problems, while achieving better performance than that achieved by the conventional deep learning algorithm.

The proliferation of IEEE 802.11 or WiFi networks, and the explosive growth in traffic demands call for solutions to maximize the capacity of WiFi networks. Hence, maximizing the spatial reuse of WiFi networks is critical as doing so allows multiple concurrent transmissions. In this respect, a critical network parameter, Clear Channel Assessment (CCA) threshold, plays a vital role as it dictates whether a node is allowed to transmit after sensing the channel. In this paper, we propose to use Deep Q-network (DQN) under two learning patterns to select the CCA threshold of devices. We further consider Transmit Power Control (TPC) in conjunction with CCA threshold selection to improve the capacity of a WiFi network. The simulation results show that our approach is capable of selecting the optimal CCA threshold for each device. As a result, the average throughput is 62.4% higher than that of a legacy Dynamic Sensitivity Control (DSC) algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

MIMO systems , *TRANSMISSION line matrix methods - Abstract
As the number of antennas increases, the massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system can precisely point to user equipments (UEs) with narrow beams. Accurate and timely channel state information (CSI) feedback is crucial to keep UEs in service. Mobile UEs, however, may suffer from the narrow beam nature of the massive MIMO system since UEs can move out of the beam coverage. When intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is applied to the massive MIMO system, the adjustment of the IRS cannot be frequent as the IRS is controlled remotely by the base station (BS). Limiting the number of CSI feedback and the number of both BS and IRS adjustments significantly reduces the overhead of transmission and computation to the system. In this paper, we consider the UEs’ mobility adaptation problem in an IRS assisted multiuser massive MIMO downlink system with infrequent CSI feedback. We propose a beam control method that adapts to UEs’ mobility. The problem is constructed as a sum rate problem where both the BS and IRS are taken into account to jointly optimize the beamforming matrices. Simulation results show that our proposed algorithm can converge quickly and provide satisfactory performance for mobile UEs. At the same time, our proposed algorithm reduces the frequency of updating the beamforming matrices effectively both at the BS and at the IRS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The coexistence of multiple types of users in vehicular networks results in diversified service requirements and multiscale content differences, which poses new challenges to reliable content transmission. This paper proposes a hierarchical coded caching framework coupled with coded caching, vehicle-to-everything communications, and non-orthogonal multiple access techniques. We quantify the user request hit ratio under different communication modes and study the hit ratio maximization problem under the constraint of limited communication and caching resources. We propose a two-layer matching based optimization algorithm, including a user association layer in distributed content sharing and a user grouping layer in centralized content requesting. Simulation results verify that the proposed scheme can achieve a balance between hit ratio and transmission time, and meet the requirements of the content sharing scenario with multiscale content files and scalable user density.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is considered as a multiple access technique for supporting massive number of devices with high spectral efficiency. Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) is an efficient solution for fully autonomous and sustainable communication networks. In this paper, application of SWIPT in networks employing cooperative NOMA (CNOMA) is investigated with imperfect channel state information (CSI). Performance of the CNOMA network with SWIPT is investigated in a multi-tier downlink scenario with macro-base stations (MBSs) and femto-base stations (FBSs). The distribution of MBSs and FBSs follow Poisson point process model. Unlike solution in the existing literature, instead of using only the superimposed signal for energy harvesting (EH), in this work, the cooperating node/user employs EH using interference from the adjacent base stations. Expressions for outage probability and throughput are derived at the user pair (comprising a cell-center user and a cell-edge user) served using NOMA. Comparison of the proposed EH system with the existing solutions is highlighted. Monte Carlo simulations are carried out to validate the analytical results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we propose a cost-efficient beamforming optimization algorithm for multi-user wireless communication systems associated with the intelligent reflecting surface (IRS). From the baseline successive refinement algorithm, which gives a sub-optimal solution for the power minimization problem under the signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR) constraint at each user, several optimization techniques are proposed to reduce the computation complexity while maintaining the algorithm-level performance. To reduce the number of required multiply-accumulate (MAC) operations, we first simplify the complicated matrix inversion by utilizing the channel hardening effect. We also present the two-phase refinement process for the group-level optimization of phase-shift elements, further relaxing the computation complexity as well as the processing latency. Applying the proposed optimization techniques, as a result, numerical results show that the fully-optimized algorithm can reduce the computational costs by up to 89.4% while showing less than 1 dB power loss, leading to the practical solution for the next-generation IRS-aided communication.

In Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) broadcast channels (BCs), the transmitter simultaneously broadcasts signals to multiple receivers at same frequency band, resulting in that the communication capacity is affected by both interference, channel fading and random noise. Although channel fading can be mitigated by transceivers, the signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) of the practical communication system is still dynamically changing due to the randomly changing noise. Traditional MIMO transceiver optimization algorithms can not flexibly adapt to the dynamic changes of SNR, resulting in large performance degradation. In this paper, we comprehensively consider signal power and signal space dimensions of the received signal in MIMO BCs, and propose two transceiver optimization algorithms which can dynamically adapt to the variance of SNRs. In the proposed algorithms, SNR is adopted to be an adjustment factor to cope with its variance. When SNR is low, i.e, large noise, the algorithm parameters are automatically adjusted so that the signal power is preserved as much as possible to combat the loss of communication capacity caused by large random noise. Correspondingly, under the condition of high SNR environment, the algorithm parameters are adjusted automatically to effectively compress the inter-user-interference (IUI) and intra-user-inter-stream-interference (ISI) by optimizing signal space dimensions. Simulation results show that in different SNR environments, the proposed algorithms can automatically adjust the focus of optimization, so that the optimization of signal power and signal space dimensions can automatically adapt to different SNRs. Compared with traditional transceiver optimization algorithms, the proposed algorithms can improve the communication capacity within a large dynamic range of SNR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper deals with the joint design problem of transmit waveform and receive filter for the robust detection of ground moving target with multiple-input multiple-output Space time adaptive processing (MIMO- STAP) radar in the presence of target and clutter uncertainties. With the prior knowledge of target and clutter statistics, the averaged signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) is formulated as a figure of merit to maximize. The robust joint design problems for the continuous and discrete phase cases, respectively, are formulated with the constant-modulus and similarity constraints. Then, an efficient iterative algorithm is developed for improving the SINR. Specifically, each iteration of the proposed algorithm involves the generalized eigenvalue decomposition to optimize the receive filter, while a nested iterative procedure involving Dinkelbach’s framework and alternating direction penalty method (ADPM) algorithm to design transmit waveform. The proposed algorithm can achieve higher SINR with reduced computational load compared to the recently developed ones. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for the robust detection of moving target in MIMO-STAP radar. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In ultra-dense cellular networks (UDNs) with user/control plane(U/C) splitting, frequent handovers in user planes are unavoidable, which seriously degrades the transmission control protocol (TCP) throughput of mobile station (MS). To enhance the TCP throughput in UDNs, this paper proposes an intelligent recommendation-based user plane handover scheme. Firstly, based on intelligent recommendation algorithms, a mobility prediction algorithm called content-based collaborative hybrid filters (CCHF) is proposed to predict the target small base station (SBS). When the MS moves into the cell-edge of the source SBS, it can pre-access the predicted target SBS and set up connections to the predicted target SBS and the source SBS simultaneously. This is the proposed CCHF-dual-handover scheme. With an accurate prediction and a simultaneous connection, CCHF-dual-handover can present enhanced signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) at cell-edge, reduced handover interruption ratio (HIR), and improved MS’s TCP throughput. Moreover, TCP throughput of CCHF-dual-handover is analyzed to show the impact of various key parameters (such as MS’s velocity and pre-access threshold). Finally, simulations are carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed CCHF-dual-handover. Given random trajectory, the prediction accuracy using CCHF is increased by more than 100% compared with existing prediction algorithms. Given accurate prediction, the CCHF-dual-handover can improve the TCP throughput by up to 150% compared with that of existing handover schemes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper studies the integration of the newly-emerged intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) technology into non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-based wireless powered communication networks (WPCNs). We consider two WPCNs which communicate with a common hybrid access point (HAP), where there exists two types of devices in each WPCN, namely information receiving device (IRD) and harvest-then-transmit device (HTTD). Downlink communication from the HAP to IRDs, downlink energy transfer (ET) from the HAP to HTTDs, and uplink information transmission (IT) from the HTTDs to the HAP are assisted by two IRSs, one in each WPCN. Under this setup, we propose efficient algorithms to optimize reflection coefficients, beamforming vectors, and resource allocation for the sake of uplink sum-rate maximization, taking into account the minimum rate requirement at the IRDs. Numerical results show the considerable performance gain of the proposed NOMA-based scheme as compared to the conventional orthogonal multiple access (OMA)-based counterpart. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we present a novel unified framework to protect multi-function wireless systems from jamming attacks. Examples of such multi-function system include joint radar and communication (JRC) systems and simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) systems. By abstracting the system functionalities as a joint optimization problem of multiple queues, we achieve effective resistance against jammers for the multi-functions simultaneously. We incorporate different anti-jamming techniques into one framework. Deception mechanism is adopted to lure the jammer to attack and make its actions more predictable, and ambient backscatter technology is used to leverage the jamming signals. Since conventional Markov decision process (MDP) has only one decision epoch at every time slot, it cannot be used to model the deception strategy which needs two decision epochs to leverage the jamming signals. We therefore formulate the problem using an advanced two-step MDP. After that, a deep reinforcement learning algorithm with a prioritized double deep Q-Learning architecture is proposed to learn optimal strategies in different system states. We show that by jointly considering the multi-functions of the system with potential jamming attacks during design phase, significant improvement can be achieved for both of the system functionalities.

In typical wireless heterogeneous networks (HetNets), users are clustered around known hotspots, e.g., shopping centers or schools, but such a non-uniform distribution of nodes is difficult to analyze. This paper explicitly models this scenario, with macro base stations (MBSs) modeled by a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), and millimeter-wave small base stations (mmWave SBSs) and users clustered around the hotspot centers, forming two Poisson cluster processes (PCPs), respectively. Fractional frequency reuse (FFR) and coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP) are assumed since they help to limit the co-tier interference and enhance the coverage and capacity of the network. We present a distance-based approach for grouping macro user equipments (MUEs) from the cell center (CC) and cell edge (CE) regions for FFR analysis. We first derive some distance distributions, including joint distance distribution from the typical user to the cooperative open-access mmWave SBS and distance distribution from the typical user to the non-cooperative open-access mmWave SBS. We obtain expressions for various performance metrics, including association probability, signal to interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) coverage probability, and ergodic capacity, under these conditions. Due to the complexity of the exact expressions, we derive novel approximations, using Alzer's lemma, to obtain the lower bounds on coverage and ergodic capacity, which are shown to be accurate through Monte Carlo simulation. Simulation results analyze the effect of different parameters on the network performance to give some guidance for the design of future networks. Numerical optimization of a key parameter, in terms of association probability, coverage probability, and ergodic capacity, is enabled by our analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Due to transmission of train control and dispatch commands, the ultra high reliability is required for railway wireless communication systems (RWCS). However, the quality of service (QoS) of RWCS is affected by external interference and jamming seriously in railway transportation. The external interference and jamming generated from intentional and/or unintentional sources can disturb the transmission of RWCS and be extremely dangerous for the trains’ safety. In this paper, a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) approach is proposed to suppress the interference and jamming in RWCS. By taking the signal-to-interference-plus-noise (SINR) as the QoS metrics, the interference suppression problem with RIS is transformed into a maximizing receiving SINR problem. Two optimum solutions, which one is based on Charnes-Cooper transformation and the other is based on single linear programming, are provided. In order to deploy the RIS in RWCS practically, two low-complexity sub-optimum solutions, which one is to bypass the channel estimation for interference links and the other is to maximize the receiving desired power, are also discussed.

This paper presents a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme with group detection for uplink multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, for which an effective precoder design is developed. In the scheme, users are divided into groups in accordance with their locations for detection at the base station. The inter- and intra-group interferences are mitigated by successive interference cancellation (SIC) and transceivers, respectively. Based on a derived approximate signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) for using zero-forcing detection, an iterative power and beamforming update procedure is developed for obtaining the user precoders. The precoder design effectively mitigates the intra-group-inter-user correlation making the adopted approximate SINR represent the original SINR accurately. The proposed multi-group MIMO-NOMA scheme can work under more practical transmit-receive antenna configurations and is shown to outperform upon existing cluster-based MIMO-NOMA schemes in terms of total transmit power for various system configurations. The impact of SIC residuals on the multi-group MIMO-NOMA scheme is investigated. Feasibility conditions for the design under imperfect SIC based on the fractional cancellation error model are developed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For large-scale antenna array multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, a typical solution often put forward for uplink detection consists in applying low-complexity linear receivers such as zero-forcing (ZF) and minimum mean-square error (MMSE) combiners. In this paper, the performance of uplink MMSE detection has been analyzed in the context of a multi-cell multiuser MIMO system. An approximate expression for the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) is proposed, which is in simple form and becomes exact in the low SNR regime. This approximate SINR applies to systems where the base station (BS) has the statistical information of the out-of-cell interfering signals, and systems where the BS ignores the presence of such interfering signals. This approximate SINR is tight for arbitrary user powers, arbitrary number of antennas at the base station, and arbitrary channel correlation matrix associated with any particular user. Approximate expressions for capacity and bit-error rate/symbol-error rate have also been derived. Particularly, it can be proven that, when the MMSE receiver ignores the presence of out-of-cell interfering signals, the performance gap between ZF and MMSE vanishes in the high SNR regime.

Complex building structures constrain indoor wireless communications. The significant dependence between the indoor wireless network performance and the building structures can be considered as an intrinsic property of a building, which means that the building has to be designed to achieve desirable indoor wireless network performance. The power gain (PG) and the interference gain (IG) have been defined as the figures of merit (FoMs) to evaluate the wireless performance of a building. Employing open space as the benchmark, the PG and the IG respectively quantify the effective change of the intended signal power and the undesired power, i.e., the interference and thermal noise power, received in a targeted user equipment (UE) location due to the presence of the building. In this paper, a tractable approach is proposed to obtain the PG and the IG with a partition-based path gain model. It enables the PG and the IG to capture the impact of both building materials and the building layout on indoor wireless network performance. Numerical results show that the analytical models in closed-form expressions facilitate the wireless performance assessment to a given building computational-efficiently. This work is a critical complement to the initial framework of the building wireless performance (BWP) evaluation. The proposed method can be employed in future wireless-friendly building design.

STOCHASTIC geometry , *MISO - Abstract
Cache-enabled small base stations (SBS) are capable of relieving the heavy burden of the backhaul link and reducing the transmission latency. The hit probability depends on the coverage probability and caching placement probabilities. However, the interference in the small-cell networks may significantly degrade the coverage probability. In this paper, for MIMO small-cell networks consisting of SBS and users, where both of them are equipped with multiple antennas, a joint interference alignment (IA) and probabilistic caching (JIA-ProbC) scheme is proposed. Using tools from stochastic geometry, the $K$ -th order Voronoi cells are constructed to form clusters, where $K$ SBSs cooperatively serve users within each of the $K$ -th order Voronoi cells. Then, the IA scheme for MIMO interference channel (IC) is employed to cancel the intra-cluster interference within each $K$ -th order Voronoi cell. By exploiting the advantage of multiples antennas at users, the IA scheme can simultaneously support more users interference-free than both the zero forcing (ZF) based interference cancellation scheme for MISO systems and SISO systems without interference management, as more interference can be canceled. Furthermore, the coverage probability is analytically approximated by the a closed-form expression. Moreover, the optimal caching placement probability is analytically derived. Numerical Simulation results show that the proposed JIA-ProbC can significantly outperform the existing joint ZF and probabilistic caching (JZF-ProbC) scheme for MISO systems and SISO probabilistic caching (SISO-ProbC) scheme as well as the joint IA and most popular caching (JIA-MPC) caching scheme.

Power control is becoming increasingly essential for the fifth-generation (5G) and beyond systems. An example use-case, among others, is the unmanned-aerial-vehicle (UAV) communications where the nearly line-of-sight (LoS) radio channels may result in very low signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratios (SINRs). The authors in (Chiang et al., 2007) proposed to efficiently and reliably solve this kind of non-convex problem via a series of geometrical programmings (GPs) using condensation approximation. However, it is only applicable for a small-scale network with several communication pairs and practically infeasible with more (e.g., tens of) nodes to be jointly optimized. We therefore in this paper aim to provide new insights into this problem. By properly introducing auxiliary variables, the problem is transformed to an equivalent form which is simpler and more intuitive for condensation. A novel condensation method with linear complexity is also proposed based on the form. The enhancements make the GP-based power control feasible for both small- and especially large-scale networks that are common in 5G and beyond. The algorithm is verified via simulations. A preliminary case study of uplink UAV communications also shows the potential of the algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes a flexible pilot assignment method to jointly optimize the uplink and downlink data transmission in multi-cell Massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems with correlated Rayleigh fading channels. By utilizing a closed-form expression of the ergodic spectral efficiency (SE) achieved with maximum ratio processing, we formulate an optimization problem for maximizing the minimum weighted sum of the uplink and downlink SEs subject to the transmit powers and pilot assignment sets. This combinatiorial optimization problem is solved by two sequential algorithms: a heuristic pilot assignment is first proposed to obtain a good pilot reuse set and the data power control is then implemented. Numerical results manifest that the proposed algorithm converges fast to a better minimum sum SE per user than the algorithms in previous works. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Terahertz (THz) wireless technology is envisioned to enable terabit-per-second (Tbps) and secure transmissions in sixth-generation (6G) communication networks and has attracted attention from academia and industry in recent years. Because the transmission range of THz radios is restricted compared to that of microwave radios, frequency reuses in the THz band become much more flexible and even possible among transceiver pairs in close proximity. However, without appropriate spatial arrangement and coordination, the frequency reuse in the THz band can also lead to severe co-channel interference and result in a low signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) or a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR), which finally degrades signal detection and network reliability. To thoroughly study the co-channel interference in the THz band, we model the co-channel interference by the compound channel model and analyze it in detail. The adopted channel model captures the key features of THz communication, such as, spreading loss, molecular absorption loss, and dynamic shadowing, which is much different and complicated than those used in the low-frequency band. The resulted SINR and SIR are investigated by approximating the sum of co-channel interference as a gamma distribution. The generalized analytical results are also reduced to specialized forms for two special cases, i.e., the single-interferer case and the case of multiple independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) interferers. Due to the generalized nature of the THz interference model constructed in this paper, the results play a meaningful role in practical implementation and can be easily extended to advanced performance analyses for THz communication systems.

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is an enabling and key wireless technology for the next generation of mobile communications. Generally, previous works focus on the performance in NOMA networks, based on some assumptions. For instance, the number of users in a NOMA group, is two-category: 1) only two users; 2) any number of users without restriction. And just a certain factor of channel gain, e.g., the propagation path loss or the small scale fading, is subjectively considered to be dominant. Besides, there is lack of the closed-form expression for the probability density function (PDF) of ordered channel gain. In this paper, we investigate a downlink cellular NOMA network with the directional beamforming and the upper limit for user number (ULFUN) in a NOMA group. Meanwhile, the path loss and the Rayleigh fading are taken into account as a whole for ordering channel gains. Based on the derived closed-form PDF of ordered channel gain, we analyze the performance for an arbitrary user in the network and derive closed-form expressions for the outage probability, the approximate meta distribution of conditional success probability (CSP) and the ergodic data rate. The provided simulations demonstrate that the proposed analytical results are accurate and reasonable. Moreover, it illustrates that the existence of ULFUN can have a positive impact on the performance gain in low SINR environments, while in terms of the outage probability, ULFUN would become a non-negligible and negative factor in the improvement of performance for high SINR environments.
