Adaptive differential detection using linear prediction for M-ary DPSK

Performance of 5G NR-polar QAM-OFDM in nonlinear distortion plus Non-Gaussian noise over Rayleigh fading channel

This paper analyzes the bit error rate (BER) for quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) with L-fold maximal ratio combining (MRC) space diversity in Rayleigh fading channel. The formula is obtained by averaging the bit error probability of M-ary QAM in an additive white Gaussian noise channel over a chi-square distribution with 2L degrees of freedom. This formula overcomes the limitations of the earlier work, which has been limited only to deriving a BER for QAM with two branch MRC space diversity. The BER performance of quadrature phase shift keying with MRC diversity is obtained from the derived formula by setting M=4.

This paper proposes a MIMO detection scheme reducing the computational complexity and providing comparable performance to the QRD-M detection scheme for MIMO-OFDM systems. The proposed scheme checks the channel condition per subcarrier and then selects detection scheme either ordered DFE scheme or adaptive QRD-M detection scheme according to that information. The post-detection SNR, which judges channel condition, depends on Moore-Penrose pseudo-inverse matrix G. The proposed scheme selects the ordered DFE detection scheme in case of good channel condition and the adaptive QRD-M detection scheme in case of bad channel condition. The adaptive QRD-M detection scheme selects the number of survival symbols M in accordance with the channel condition at the each layer. Compared with the QRD-M (M=16) detection scheme, the proposed detection scheme reduces the computational complexity about 67 percents and achieves similar performance.

This paper presents bit error rate (BER) analysis of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consisting of sensor nodes based on an IEEE 802.15.4 RF transceiver. Closed-form expressions for BER are obtained for WSNs operating over AWGN, Rayleigh and Nakagami-m fading channels. For the purpose of analysis, we consider an IEEE 802.15.4 RF transceiver using direct sequence spread spectrum-offset quadrature phase shift keying (DSSS-OQPSK) modulation under 2.4 GHz frequency band in a WSN. Analytical expressions for BER are derived for a wireless link between sensor nodes that act as a transmitter unit and a base station without considering the effect of interferers in the wireless environment. Numerical results for BER are obtained by varying the IEEE 802.15.4 standard specific physical layer parameters, such as number of bits used to represent a Zigbee symbol, number of modulation levels used in an OQPSK modulator, and various values of Rayleigh and Nakagami-m fading parameters, denoted as $$\alpha $$ ? and $$m$$ m , respectively. Moreover, optimum values of physical layer parameters are identified for improved system performance. It is found that error performance analysis of WSN shows improvement when lower number of bits is used to represent a Zigbee symbol. Specifically, under a Rayleigh fading channel which reflects a real-time WSN environment, the network exhibits better performance only when it is operated at high SNR values, i.e., BER of order $$10^{-2}$$ 10 - 2 is achieved when SNR lies in the range 5---15 dB. Also, the effect of fading parameters on network performance shows that better results are obtained for higher values of $$\alpha $$ ? and $$m$$ m for Rayleigh and Nakagami-m fading channels, respectively.

In this work, a sequential estimation algorithm based on branch metric is used as channel equalizer to combat intersymbol interference in frequency-selective wireless communication channels. The bit error rate (BER) and computational complexity of the algorithm are compared with those of the maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE), the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm, the Fano sequential algorithm, the stack sequential algorithm, list-type MAP equalizer, soft-output sequential algorithm (SOSA) and maximum-likelihood soft-decision sequential decoding algorithm (MLSDA). The BER results have shown that whilst the sequential estimation algorithm has a close performance to the MLSE using the Viterbi algorithm, its performance is better than the other algorithms. Beside, the sequential estimation algorithm is the best in terms of computational complexity among the algorithms mentioned above, so it performs the channel equalization faster. Especially in M-ary modulated systems, the equalization speed of the algorithm increases exponentially when compared to those of the other algorithms.

The combination of the channel fading compensation technique and the coded modulation technique is discussed. The system presented is considered to operate under correlated Rayleigh or Rician fading channels. The channel correlation property has been used to carry out channel fading compensation with the aid of periodically inserted pilot symbols. A multidimensional BCM (block coded modulation) scheme was used to improve the system error performances. On decoding, a corresponding trellis is used; therefore, the Viterbi algorithm and channel state information become available. The error performances of the system are investigated through computer simulations. Combined with the fading compensation, the multidimensional BCM scheme gives good error performances under various fading channels. For the Rayleigh fading channel, 7.5-dB coding gain has been achieved at a bit error rate (BER) of 10/sup -3/. For the Rician fading channel with K=10 dB, the coding gain is 3.7 dB at BER=10/sup -4/.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

Noncoherent decoding of trellis codes using multiple-symbol overlapped observations was shown to achieve close to the coherent performance. Optimal decoding by the Viterbi algorithm (VA) for L-symbol observations requires a number of states which grows exponentially with L. In this paper two novel suboptimal algorithms are presented, based on the VA, for which the number of states is the same as the original code, yielding complexity depending weakly on L. The first algorithm, is called the basic decision feedback algorithm (BDFA). It uses feedback from previous decisions to achieve low complexity. Due to the feedback, it suffers from error propagation. A modification of the BDFA called the modified decision feedback algorithm (MDFA) serves to greatly reduce the error propagation and improve the bit error rate performance. >

This paper presents a code synchronization scheme-the time-window control loop (TWCL)-for postdetection RAKE receiver systems that offers the path-diversity effect. Laboratory test results from a postdetection RAKE receiver system with TWCL under a frequency-selective fading environment are introduced. RAKE combining methods, a simple integral demodulation method within a time window, and a recursive least squares (RLS) demodulation method within the time window that uses the RLS algorithm to realize maximal ratio combining, are investigated. It is found that TWCL performance with delay paths (double-spike frequency-selective Rayleigh-fading model) surpasses the performance of both acquisition and tracking without delay paths (nonfrequency-selective Rayleigh-fading model) because of the path-diversity effect. The laboratory results show that TWCL provides good acquisition and tracking performance under the fading conditions experienced with maximum Doppler frequencies of 5 or 80 Hz. It is also shown that the signal energy per bit to noise-power spectral-density ratio (E/sub b//N/sub 0/) required to achieve the bit error rate (BER) of 10/sup -3/ under the double-spike frequency-selective Rayleigh-fading model is reduced by 10 dB compared to the nonfrequency-selective Rayleigh-fading model. The difference in path-diversity effect between the two RAKE combining methods is only 1 dB. From a structural viewpoint, the simple integral demodulation method supports miniaturization and high-speed data-transmission.

The performance analysis of multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with rate-adaptive modulation and antenna selection over Rayleigh fading channels is presented. By means of exact expression of bit error rate (BER), the suboptimal switching thresholds (ST) of fading gain subject to a target BER constraint are derived. It is shown that this suboptimal ST are very close to the optimal ST, and is more accurate than the conventional ST based on approximate BER expression. By the ST, we obtain exact closed-form expressions of the spectrum efficiency (SE) and average BER. Moreover, a tightly approximate BER is derived to simplify the calculation of exact BER, which has more accuracy than the existing approximate BER. Simulation results for SE and BER are in good agreement with the derived theoretical expressions. The results show that the multiuser MIMO with adaptive modulation can provide better SE than the single user counterpart, and the system SE using suboptimal ST is also higher than that using conventional ST.

Current studies on modulation and detection schemes in molecular communication mainly focus on the scenarios with static transmitters and receivers. However, mobile molecular communication is needed in many envisioned applications, such as target tracking and drug delivery. Until now, investigations about mobile molecular communication have been limited. In this paper, a static transmitter and a mobile bacterium-based receiver performing random walk are considered. In this mobile scenario, the channel impulse response changes due to the dynamic change of the distance between the transmitter and the receiver. Detection schemes based on fixed distance fail in signal detection in such a scenario. Furthermore, the intersymbol interference (ISI) effect becomes more complex due to the dynamic character of the signal which makes the estimation and mitigation of the ISI even more difficult. In this paper, an adaptive ISI mitigation method and two adaptive detection schemes are proposed for this mobile scenario. In the proposed scheme, adaptive ISI mitigation, estimation of dynamic distance, and the corresponding impulse response reconstruction are performed in each symbol interval. Based on the dynamic channel impulse response in each interval, two adaptive detection schemes, concentration-based adaptive threshold detection and peak-time-based adaptive detection, are proposed for signal detection. Simulations demonstrate that the ISI effect is significantly reduced and the adaptive detection schemes are reliable and robust for mobile molecular communication.

The integration of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technologies is a hybrid technology that overcomes a myriad of problems in the 5G cellular system and beyond, including massive connectivity, low latency, and high dependability. The goal of this paper is to improve and reassess the bit error rate (BER), spectrum efficiency (SE) of the downlink (DL), average capacity rate, and outage probability (OP) of the uplink (UL) in a 5G network using MIMO. The proposed model utilizes QPSK modulation, four users with different power location coefficients, SNR, transmit power, and two contrasting bandwidths 80 and 200 MHz under selective frequency Rayleigh fading channels. The proposed model’s performance is evaluated using the MATLAB software program. The DL results found that the BER and SE against transmitted power showed the MIMO-NOMA enhanced the BER performance for the best user U4 from 10−1.7 to 10−5.2 at 80 MHz bandwidth (BW), and from 10−1.5 to 10−5 at 200 MHz for transmitting power of 40 dBm. In contrast, the SE performance for the best user U4 is enhanced from 24 × 10−3 to 25 × 10−3 bits/second/Hz at 80 MHz BW and from 19.8 × 10−3 to 20 × 10−3 bps/Hz at 200 MHz BW. Although the outcomes for the UL were obtained in terms of average capacity rate and OP versus SNR at 80, and 200 MHz BW, the MIMO-NOMA result showed that the average capacity rate for the best user U4 performance improves by 12 bps/Hz for 1 dB SNR and the OP is reduced by 15 × 10−3 for 80 MHz BW and by 12 × 10−3 for 200 MHz BW at an SNR of 0.17 dB. As the BW increased the BER, the average capacity rate increased while the SE and OP decreased. For both DL/UL NOMA with and without MIMO, closed-form expressions for BER, SE, average capacity rate, and OP were obtained. All users’ performance, even those whose connections were affected by interference or Rayleigh fading channels significantly improved, when MIMO-NOMA was implemented.

A chaos-based multi-user time division multiplexing (TDM) communication system has been proposed and its benchmark performance compared to that of the chaos-based direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) system in the noisy and Rayleigh fading channels. The benchmark performance of the systems is investigated in terms of the bit error rate (BER) under the assumption of perfect synchronisation. The chaotic spreading signals, used to encrypt the binary messages, are generated using the logistic map. The degradation in performance of the systems in the Rayleigh fading channel when compared with the noisy channel is demonstrated. Furthermore, it is shown that in both noisy and Rayleigh fading channels, the chaos-based multi-user TDM system outperforms the chaos-based DS-CDMA system for a large number of users in the system, whereas the chaos-based DS-CDMA system yields better performance for low user numbers. The overall BER performance degradation for the chaos-based DS-CDMA multi-user system in noisy and Rayleigh fading channels is characterised by the flattening of the BER curves at low levels of noise due to the prevailing effects of the interuser interferences.

The increasing demand for high-density and high-speed digital optical recording systems has made the development of advanced coding and signal processing techniques for fast and reliable data recovery increasingly important. In recent years, the parity-check (PC)-code-based reception technique has been widely studied for magnetic recording systems, and it is projected to be highly promising for high-density optical recording. The PC code is an inner error correction code (ECC), which can detect dominant short error events of the system, using only a few parity bits. This reduces the loss in error correction capability of the outer ECC due to random short errors and results in a simple and efficient solution to improve the overall performance. This thesis is dedicated to the design and analysis of PCcode- based recording systems to achieve higher recording capacity with low implementation complexity, for high-density blue laser disc systems. In particular, most of the key components of the PC-code-based optical recording system have been designed and optimized for different recording densities, and different proportions of white noise and media noise. During the development of advanced coding and detection techniques, it becomes necessary to investigate the system’s performance with different coding schemes and recording densities. In Chapter 2 of the thesis, we propose a generalized Braat-Hopkins model for optical recording channels, which provides a fair basis for the performance comparison of detection schemes over different coding schemes and recording densities, for channels with additive, white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and media noise. Various basic issues associated with the PC-code-based systems are investigated in Chapter 3. These include bounds for bit error rates and error event probabilities, the dominant error events at channel detector output, different PC codes, simple and efficient post-processors, the impact of error events that are split across data block boundaries and the corresponding remedy, as well as the effects of code rates and recording densities. Simulation results show that a 4-bit PC code achieves the best performance. The corresponding bit error rates (BERs) are very close to the performance bounds, at both nominal and high densities. Constrained codes, which serve as a key component in the read-write channel of data storage systems, are desired to have a high code rate with low-complexity encoder/decoder. In Chapter 4, we investigate the design of certain capacity-approaching constrained codes for optical recording systems. In particular, we derive analytically the relationship between the number of encoder states and the maximum size of these codes. We identify the minimum number of encoder states that maximizes the code rate, for any desired codeword length. The design of constrained PC codes is key to the development of PCcode- based systems, and the systematic design of efficient constrained PC codes remains a challenging problem. In Chapter 5, we propose a general and systematic code design technique for constructing capacity-approaching constrained PC codes, which can detect any type of error events of the system, with the minimum code rate loss. Compared to the rate 2/3 code without parity, the newly designed constrained 4-bit PC code achieves a performance gain of 2 dB at nominal density, and 1.5 dB at high density, at BER = 10-5. As the dominant noise for high-density optical recording systems, media noise severely degrades the performance of channel detectors and postprocessors that are designed for AWGN. In Chapter 6, we propose two novel modifications to the bit detector to combat media noise. We further develop a data-dependent post-processing scheme for error correction. Compared to the system designed without considering media noise and without PC codes, the overall performance gain of the developed scheme can be more than 11 dB at high media noise levels. In data storage systems, the ECC failure rate (EFR) serves as the ultimate measure of the data recovery performance. In Chapter 7, we develop semi-analytical approaches for estimating the EFR, and analyze EFRs for the developed PC-code-based systems, for the cases without and with interleaving. Our analysis shows that with the optimum interleaving degrees, compared to the rate 9/13 code without parity, the 2-bit PC code achieves a gain of around 0.5 dB, and the 4-bit PC code gains 0.6 dB, at high record ing density and EFR = 10-16. The thesis concludes in Chapter 8 with some suggestions for further work.

The WiMax (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is a technology in&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;broadband wireless access, which employs OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) as an alternative transmission to enable high speed data in communication system. This research aim is to analyze the performance system of the OFDM-Based WiMAX, which used the cyclic prefix. The model was designed in four schemes of simulation method, the BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying, QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying), 16 QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) and 64 QAM. Each scheme was investigated BER (Bit Error Rate) on AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) channel and multipath Rayleigh fading channel, which had applied the cyclic prefix. By simulation of the cyclic prefix was produced the modulation measurement of the BPSK, QPSK, 16 and 64 QAM. The performance result of Eb/No 15 dB was obtained the BER of BPSK and QPSK of 1.11E-11, the BER of 16 QAM and 64 QAM of 8.69E-06 and 0.00333 respectively. Those results indicated much smaller BER value than EbNo 0 dB which BPSK and QPSK of 1 BER, 1.5 and 1.75 BER for 16 QAM and 64 QAM respectively. In conclusion, a higher value of EbNo, hence the BER value would be lower.

This paper analyzes the performance of well known Least-mean-square (LMS) and Recursive-least-squares (RLS) adaptive algorithms in terms of bit error rate (BER) verses signal to noise ratio (SNR) performances on the space-time coded multicarrier CDMA (STC-MC-CDMA) systems in frequency selective environments. For system we consider Alamouti's space-time coding scheme that involves two transmit antennas and provide transmit diversity at transmitting end. We compare the performance of RLS and LMS detector with help of computer simulation. It is found that BER performance of RLS detector is always considerably better than that of LMS detector. Thus, RLS detector outperforms the LMS detector. In this paper, we propose an application of the RLS algorithm for the detection of space-time coded MC-CDMA system. Simulation results presented in this paper confirms the performance analysis.
