The system consists of a number of secondary users (SUs) in the secondary network and a primary user (PU) in the primary network. We consider the communications in the link between two selected SUs, referred to as the desired link which is enhanced using the cooperation of one of the existing SUs. The core aim of this work is to maximize the achievable data rate in the desired link, using the cooperation of one of the SUs which is chosen opportunistically out of existing SUs. Meanwhile, the interference due to the secondary transmission on the PU should not exceed the tolerable amount. The approach to determine the optimal power allocation, i.e. the optimal transmits covariance and amplification matrices of the SUs, and also the optimal cooperating SU is proposed. Since the proposed optimal approach is a highly complex method, a low complexity approach is further proposed and its performance is evaluated using simulations. The simulation results reveal that the performance loss due to the low complexity approach is only about 14%, while the complexity of the algorithm is greatly reduced. Manuscript profile -

This goal can be achieved using massive multiple input - multiple output (massive-MIMO) systems in combination with Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique. NOMA technology uses the successive interference cancellation (SIC) receiver to detect user’s signals which imposes an additional complexity on the system. In this paper, we proposed two methods to reduce the system complexity. The proposed method despite imperfect channel state information (CSI) in the receiver, there is not significantly reduction in the system performance. Since the computation of matrices inverse has a high computational complexity, we used the Neumann series approximation method and the Gauss-Seidel decomposition method to compute matrices inverse in the SIC receiver. Simulation results are provided at the end of the paper in terms of bit error rate (BER) at the receiver which show, these methods have lower computational complexity in comparison with the traditional methods while they cause a slight performance reduction in the SIC receiver. Also, we examined the increasing and decreasing value of imperfect channel state information in the system performance which shows the increasing value of imperfect channel state information, cause a slight performance reduction in SIC receiver.

Providing high data rate and increasing capacity are the major problems in VLC. Recent evidence suggests that Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) technique can offers improved data rates and increased link range. This paper describes the design and implementation of visible light communication system in indoor environment exploring the benefits of MIMO. The specific objective of this research was to implement a 4×4 Multiple Input (LEDs) Multiple Output (photodetectors)-VLC communication system, where a 16 white power LEDs in four arrays are setting up at transmitter and four RX modules are setting up at receiver side without the need for additional power or bandwidth as well as analyze a mathematical model for a VLC- 4×4 MIMO with different modes such as the suitable angles to cover the entire room. The research designs practically an electronic circuit for the transmitter and receiver with inexpensive components. The power distribution of different propagation modes is calculated for Single Input Single Output (SISO) and MIMO channels in typical room dimensions. The results in this paper indicate that the power is distributed uniformly for entire room when implemented VLC-MIMO as compared to VLC-SISO. Furthermore, a 4×4 MIMO implementing VLC is compared in term of BER vs. SINR with SISO communication system for both Line of Sight (LOS) and Non Line of Sight (NLOS) propagation modes. Comparing the two results of LOS and NLOS, it can be seen that a 4×4 MIMO implementing VLC for LOS perform better than the same system with NLOS due to decreasing in the received power resulted from the multipath effect.

We investigate different antenna diversity concepts, which can be applied to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems over highly frequency selective channels. The main object of this research is standard compatibility and the effect of simple diversity techniques on the channel fading properties. Therefore, we analyze a receiver in terms of the effective channel transfer function, which leads to the possibility of optimizing diversity. Besides, a novel transceiver using DDoD is proposed, which increases the Doppler spread of the multipath fading channel without causing additional Intercarrier Interference (ICI). Moreover, an efficient Alamouti encoder and decoder based on CDD is proposed, which allows a high reliability and capacity enhancement. In order to evaluate the capability of that, we have implemented this scheme for the second-generation terrestrial video broadcasting (DVB-T2) system over different channels. Furthermore, mathematical analysis and simulation results show the bit error performance of the modified encoding method with these diversity techniques, performs mostly better than the other forms of encoding Alamouti over highly frequency-selective channels such as single frequency networks (SFN). The other advantages of the proposed method are simplicity, flexibility, and standard compatibility. Manuscript profile -

In this letter, a novel iterative method is proposed for detection of the transmitted symbols in uplink multiuser massive MIMO systems. Linear detection algorithms such as minimum-mean-square-error (MMSE) and zero-forcing (ZF), are able to achieve the performance of the near optimal detector, when the number of base station (BS) antennas is enough high. But the complexity of linear detectors in Massive MIMO systems is high due to the necessity of the calculation of the inverse of a large dimension matrix. In this paper, we address the problem of reducing the complexity of the MMSE detector for massive MIMO systems. The proposed method is based on Gram Schmidt algorithm, which improves the convergence speed and also provides better error rate than the alternative methods. It will be shown that the complexity order is reduced from O(〖n_t〗^3) to O(〖n_t〗^2), where n_t is the number of users. The proposed method avoids the direct computation of matrix inversion. Simulation results show that the proposed method improves the convergence speed and also it achieves the performance of MMSE detector with considerable lower computational complexity.

It also improves services and applications for the proximity-based wireless communication. However, an important challenge in such deployment is mutual interference. Interference, in the uplink spectrum, reusing the same resource with cellular user, is caused by D2D users. In this paper, we study a distributed power control (DPC) algorithm, using minimum mean square error (MMSE) filter in receiver, to mitigate the produced interference in this deployment scenario. For the DPC algorithm, employing the coverage probability of D2D links, an optimal power control approach is proposed, which maximizes the spectral efficiency of D2D links. Using this modeling approach, it is possible to derive closed-form analytical expressions for the coverage probabilities and ergodic spectral efficiency, which give insight into how the various network parameters interact and affect the link. Also, the DPC algorithm is modeled by stochastic geometry and receiver filter is designed by estimation theory that a new structure in this robust network is an approach to improve spectral efficiency. Simulation results illustrate enhancing coverage probability performance of D2D links in term of the target (signal to interference ratio) SIR with respect to different receiver filter and other parameters which are existing in D2D links.

Each antenna of this type of radar can steer its beam independently towards any direction as an independent transmitter. However, the joint processing of signals for transmission and reception differs this radar from the multistatic radar. There are many resource optimization problems which improve the performance of MIMO radar. But power allocation is one of the most interesting resource optimization problems. The power allocation finds an optimum strategy to assign power to transmit antennas with the aim of minimizing the target tracking errors under specified transmit power constraints. In this study, the performance of power allocation for target tracking in MIMO radar with widely separated antennas is investigated. Therefore, a MIMO radar with distributed antennas is configured and a target motion model using the constant velocity (CV) method is modeled. Then Joint Cramer Rao bound (CRB) for target parameters (joint target position and velocity) estimation error is calculated. This is utilized as a power allocation problem objective function. Since the proposed power allocation problem is nonconvex. Therefore, a SQP-based power allocation algorithm is proposed to solve it. In simulation results, the performance of the proposed algorithm in various conditions such as a different number of antennas and antenna geometry configurations is examined. Results affirm the accuracy of the proposed algorithm. Manuscript profile -

The propagation channel model is derived when indoor scatterers are located on a hollow-disk around the user and a distribution of outdoor scatterers exists between the base station and the user. The closed-form Cross-Correlation Function (CCF) is derived for the aforementioned scenario. This function depends on various parameters of interest including the distance between the base station and the user, the spacing among antennas elements, and the directions of the antennas elements. The numerical CCF values are obtained with Radiowave Propagation Simulator (RPS) software for the building of Electrical and Computer Engineering School at the University of Sistan and Baluchestan. The results show that considering the outdoor scatterers increases the accuracy of the CCF and the capacity computation significantly. Manuscript profile -

Protocols based on the phase of a received signal, due to the uniform distribution phase of fading channel, are suitable in both static and dynamic environments and, they have a key generation rate (KGR) higher than protocols based on received signal strength (RSS).In addition, previous works have generally focused on key generation protocol for single-antenna (SISO) systems but these have not produced a significant KGR. So in this paper to increase the randomness and key generation rate are used received signal phase estimations on multiple-antenna (MIMO) systems because they have the potential to present more random variables in key generation compared to SISO systems. The results of simulation show that the KGR of the proposed protocol is 4 and 9 times more than the KGR of a SISO system, when the numbers of transmitter and receiver antennas are the same and equal to 2 and 3, respectively. Also, the key generation rate will increase considerably, when to extract the secret key bits using multilevel quantization. Manuscript profile -

Our goal is to design a covariance matrix which can suppress more interferers compared to phased array radar and recent covariance matrix design methods. It can also result in a better SINR level compared to conventional MIMO radars. In this paper, maximum SINR of the proposed covariance matrix is calculated in closed form. Simulation results show that our proposed covariance matrix in addition to achieve better SINR performance, can suppress more interferers compared to phased array radar and recent covariance matrix design methods, by using waveform diversity with the same number of antennas. Simulation results also validate analytical achievements that presented in this paper. Manuscript profile -

The two-dimensional ambiguity function is known as a tool to compare radar performance in terms of resolution. A space-time code can be designed based on minimizing the distance between the actual target parameters in range, speed and angle. For this purpose, high resolution can be achieved by analyzing the ambiguity function and narrowing it down as much as possible. In this paper, the ambiguity function with two variables of amplitude and speed mismatch is considered and a new criterion to achieve high resolution performance in this field is proposed. In this case, by optimizing the proposed cost functions, the optimal space-time code is extracted. The proposed design can also be extended to phased-MIMO radar. The simulation results also show that our proposed scheme has a very narrow ambiguity function around the origin, while it has a performance very close to the optimal state in terms of target identification probability.

PMR can combine the advantages of both MIMO radar and phased array radar. Here, PMR transmits orthogonal signals from all subarrays to provide both waveform frequency diversity and high coherent processing gain. In this paper dealt with detector design in the presence of heterogeneous clutter based on the unknown scattering coefficients for PMR. Then, detection probability and false-alarm probability are computed based on the derived optimum detector. At the end, the power allocation problem is investigated analytically. The numerical simulations show that obtained optimal detector is joint spatial-temporal filter, which, the clutters are effectively weakened in PMR. Furthermore, simulation results illustrate that proposed power allocation algorithm improve detection performance of PMR in comparison with PR and equal power PMR. Manuscript profile -

It provides huge advantages to the future communication systems in data rate, the quality of services, energy efficiency, and spectral efficiency. Linear detection algorithms can achieve a near-optimal performance in large-scale MIMO systems, due to the asymptotic orthogonal channel property. But, the performance of linear MIMO detectors degrades when the number of transmit antennas is close to the number of receive antennas (loaded scenario). Therefore, this paper proposes a series of detectors for large MIMO systems, which is capable of achieving promising performance in loaded scenarios. The main idea is to improve the performance of the detector by finding the hidden sparsity in the residual error of the received signal. At the first step, the conventional MIMO model is converted into the sparse model via the symbol error vector obtained from a linear detector. With the aid of the compressive sensing methods, the incorrectly detected symbols are recovered and performance improvement in the detector output is obtained. Different sparse recovery algorithms have been considered to reconstruct the sparse error signal. This study reveals that error recovery by imposing sparse constraint would decrease the bit error rate of the MIMO detector. Simulation results show that the iteratively reweighted least squares method achieves the best performance among other sparse recovery methods. Manuscript profile -

This kind of radar applies multiple antennas which are deployed widely dispersed from each other. Therefore, a target is observed simultaneously from different uncorrelated angles and it offers spatial diversity. In this radar, a target’s radar cross section (RCS) is different in each transmit-receive path. So, a random complex Gaussian RCS is supposed for one target. Power allocation is used to allocate the optimum power to each transmit antenna and avoid illuminating the extra power in the environment and hiding it from interception. This manuscript aims to minimize the target tracking error with constraints on total transmit power and the power of each transmit antenna. For calculation of target tracking error, the joint Cramer Rao bound for a target velocity and position is computed and this is assumed as an objective function of the problem. It should be noted that a target RCS is also considered as unknown parameter and it is estimated along with target parameters. This makes a problem more similar to real conditions. After the investigation of the problem convexity, the problem is solved by particle swarm optimization (PSO) and sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithms. Then, various scenarios are simulated to evaluate the proposed scheme. The simulation results validate the accuracy and the effectiveness of the power allocation structure for target tracking in MIMO radar with widely separated antennas. Manuscript profile -

The network consists of a cell with multiple users, in which users are distributed based on the Poisson point (PPP) process at the cell area, which is closer to the conditions in a real mobile network. In this case, the number of users inside the cell and their location will be random. Depending on the distribution of users in the space and the difference in their distance from the base station, their elevation angles will also be different. Considering the downlink transmission and the zero-forcing (ZF) precoder in the base station, with the aim of eliminating intra cell interference, we evaluate and analyze the probability of coverage in the cell and then we obtain the best antenna tilt angle to achieve maximum probability of coverage. Using the analysis of numerical results, the accuracy of the calculations and the value of the optimal tilt angle of the antenna array are confirmed. Manuscript profile -

In each cell of this system, two types of multiple access technologies, namely OFDMA and Massive MIMO, are available for MVNO at two different prices. In this setup, we propose a multi access technology selection approach (MATSA) with the objective to reduce operating costs and maximize the profit of the MVNOs subject to a set of constraints, and formulate this resource allocation problem with the new utility function. Due to the existence of continuous and binary variables in the formulated optimization problem and also the interference between cells in data rate functions, this optimization problem will be non-convex with very high computational complexity. To tackle this problem, by applying the complementary geometric programming (CGP) and the successive convex approximation (SCA), an effective two-step iterative algorithm is developed to convert the optimization problem into two sub problems with the aim to find optimum technology selection and power consumption parameters for each user in two steps, respectively. The simulation results demonstrate that our proposed approach (MATSA) with novel utility function is more efficient than the traditional approach, in terms of increasing total EE and reducing total power consumption. The simulation results illustrate that the profit of the MVNOs is enhanced more than 13% compared to that of the traditional approach. Manuscript profile
