Novel Preamble-Based Channel Estimation for OFDM/OQAM Systems

Jinfeng Du; Svante Signell

OFDM/OQAM has been considered as an attractive alternative to classic OFDM with cyclic prefix (CP) over doubly dispersive channels. By utilising well designed pulse shapes and removing CP, OFDM/OQAM has the advantage of reduced out-of-band energy and a theoretically higher spectral efficiency. However, channel estimation over doubly dispersive channels has been a big problem for OFDM/OQAM due to the nonorthogonality between the real and imaginary parts of its modulated signals. Therefore conventional channel estimation (CE) methods used for OFDM cannot be directly applied to OFDM/OQAM. Recently a preamble-based CE method - interference approximation method (IAM) - has been proposed to ease this task. By treating the intrinsic interference from neighbour symbols as known information, two heuristic preamble sequences have been constructed based on tentative observations, which turn out to be suboptimal. In this paper, we present a general theoretical framework for IAM preamble design and apply it to identify the optimal IAM preamble sequence which results in a higher gain. Numerical results have verified the effectiveness of the theoretical framework and a gain of 2.4 dB against CP-OFDM has been demonstrated with the new preamble in various doubly dispersive channels with a QPSK modulation.

Cooperative Network Coding Strategies for Wireless Relay Networks with Backhaul

Jinfeng Du; Ming Xiao; Mikael Skoglund

We investigate cooperative network coding strategies for relay-aided two-source two-destination wireless networks with a backhaul connection between the source nodes. Each source multicasts information to all destinations using a shared relay. We study cooperative strategies based on different network coding schemes, namely, finite field and linear network coding, and lattice coding. To further exploit the backhaul connection, we also propose network coding based beamforming. We measure the performance in term of achievable rates over Gaussian channels, and observe significant gains over benchmark schemes. We derive the achievable rate regions for these schemes and find the cut-set bound for our system. We also show that the cut-set bound can be achieved by network coding based beamforming when the signal-to-noise ratios lie in the sphere defined by the source-relay and relay-destination channel gains.

Design of isotropic orthogonal transform algorithm-based multicarrier systems with blind channel estimation

Jinfeng Du; Pei Xiao; Jinsong Wu; Qingchun Chen

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technique has gained increasing popularity in both wired and wireless communication systems. However, in the conventional OFDM systems the insertion of a cyclic prefix (CP) and the transmission of periodic training sequences for purpose of channel estimation decrease the systems spectral efficiency. As an alternative to OFDM, isotropic orthogonal transform algorithm (IOTA)-based multicarrier system adopts a proper pulse shaping with good time and frequency localisation properties to avoid interference and maintain orthogonality in real field among sub-carriers without the use of CP. In this study, the authors propose linearly precoded IOTA-based multicarrier systems to achieve blind channel estimation by utilising the structure of auto-correlation and cross-correlation matrices introduced by precoding. The results show that the proposed IOTA-based multicarrier systems achieve better power and spectral efficiency compared with the conventional OFDM systems.

Time frequency localization of pulse shaping filters in OFD/OQAM systems

Jinfeng Du; Svante Signell

In this paper we investigate the time frequency localization (TFL) properties of different pulse shapes in OFDM/OQAM systems. Various prototype functions, such as rectangular, half cosine, isotropic orthogonal transfer algorithm (IOTA) function and extended Gaussian functions (EGF) are discussed and implemented in a Matlab/Octave Simulation Workbench for software defined radio by direct discretisation of the continuous time model. Simulation results show that pulse shapes with good TFL properties can have near perfect reconstruction.

Maximum Throughput Path Selection With Random Blockage for Indoor 60 GHz Relay Networks

Guang Yang; Jinfeng Du; Ming Xiao

Indoor communications in the 60 GHz band is capable of supporting multi-gigabit wireless access thanks to the abundant spectrum and the possibility of using dense antenna arrays. However, the high directivity and penetration loss make it vulnerable to blockage events, which can be frequent in indoor environments. Given network topology information in sufficient precision, we investigate the average throughput and outage probability when the connection between any two nodes can be established either via the line-of-sight (LOS) link, through a reflection link, or by a half-duplex relay node. We model the reflection link as an LOS with extra power loss and derive the closed-form expression for the relative reflection loss. For networks with a central coordinator and multiple relays, we also propose a generic algorithm, maximum throughput path selection (MTPS), to select the optimal path that maximizes the throughput. The complexity of the MTPS algorithm is O(n2) for networks equipped with n relays, whereas a brute-forced algorithm has complexity of O(n · n!). Numerical results show that increasing the number of relays can significantly increase the average throughput and decrease the outage probability, and resorting to reflection paths provides significant gains when the probability of link blockage is high.

Wireless Multicast Relay Networks with Limited-Rate Source-Conferencing

Jinfeng Du; Ming Xiao; Mikael Skoglund; Muriel Médard

We investigate capacity bounds for a wireless multicast relay network where two sources simultaneously multicast to two destinations with the help of a full-duplex relay node. The two sources and the relay use the same channel resources (i.e. co-channel transmission). We assume Gaussian channels with time-invariant channel gains which are known by all nodes. The two source nodes are connected by orthogonal limited-rate error-free conferencing links. By extending the proof of the converse for the Gaussian relay channel and introducing two lemmas on conditional (co-)variance, we present two genie-aided outer bounds of the capacity region for this multicast relay network. We extend noisy network coding to use source cooperation with the help of the theory of network equivalence. We also propose a new coding scheme, partial-decode-and-forward based linear network coding, which is essentially a hybrid scheme utilizing rate-splitting and messages conferencing at the source nodes, partial decoding and linear network coding at the relay, and joint decoding at each destination. A low-complexity alternative scheme, analog network coding based on amplify-and-forward relaying, is also investigated and shown to benefit greatly from the help of the conferencing links and can even outperform noisy network coding when the coherent combining gain is dominant.

Comparison of CP-OFDM and OFDM/OQAM in Doubly Dispersive Channels

Jinfeng Du; Svante Signell

In this paper we compare the performance of cyclic prefix based OFDM (CP-OFDM) system and OFDM/offset QAM (OFDM/OQAM) system in doubly dispersive channels, by investigating the signal reconstruction perfectness, time and frequency dispersion robustness, and sensitivity to frequency offset. Both analysis and simulation results show that various parameter adaptations can be made with respect to the channel state information to improve the system performance.

Pulse shape adaptivity in OFDM/OQAM systems

Jinfeng Du; Svante Signell

Adaptation is crucial to realise high data rate transmission in multicarrier communication systems over dispersive channels. Apart from rate/power adaptation enabled by orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), OFDM/offset QAM (OFDM/OQAM) systems provide possibility to adjust pulse shapes depending on the channel characteristics. In this paper we discuss and evaluate pulse shape adaptivity in OFDM/OQAM systems with focus on the extended Gaussian functions (EGF) which have been shown to be good candidates for pulse shape adaptation. By investigating the time frequency dispersion robustness and carrier frequency offset sensitivity, both analysis and simulation results show that pulse shape adaptation with respect to the channel state information can improve the system performance.

Short-message noisy network coding with partial source cooperation

Jinfeng Du; Ming Xiao; Mikael Skoglund; Shlomo Shamai

Noisy network coding (NNC) has been shown to outperform standard compress-and-forward (CF) in networks with multiple relays and/or multiple destinations. Recently, short-message noisy network coding (SNNC) has been proved to achieve the same rate region as NNC for independent sources but with significantly reduced encoding delay and decoding complexity. In this paper, we show that when partial cooperation between source nodes is possible, by performing rate-splitting, message exchange, and superposition coding with proper power allocation at the source nodes, SNNC can achieve a strictly larger rate region than NNC. The gain comes from coherent combining at all the receiving nodes.

Costa Precoding in One Dimension

Jinfeng Du; Erik G. Larsson; Mikael Skoglund

We design an optimum modulator for the Costa (dirty-paper) precoding problem under the constraint of a binary signaling alphabet, and assuming the interference symbols belong to a binary constellation. We evaluate the performance of our technique in terms of the mutual information between the channel input and output, and compare it to that of Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) with optimized parameters. We show that our optimal modulator is always better than THP. In many relevant scenarios, the performance difference is significant
