In this paper, erasure demodulation for an M-ary chirp spread spectrum signal is proposed. This demodulation scheme is assumed to be implemented in IoT devices to receive a deactivation command. In the erasure demodulation scheme a demodulator regards bit elements in a coded bit sequence as erasure if the corresponding correlator output is larger than a threshold and they are different from bit elements in a coded bit sequence for the maximum correlator output. Those erasure bits are treated as both "0" and "1" and cyclic redundancy check (CRC) decoding following the erasure demodulation checks which output is correct. As one of those outputs must be the same as the transmit coded bit, block error rate (BLER) performance improves. Even though the erasure demodulation increases the probability of false alarm, it can reduce the miss probability of deactivation. On the other hand, as the number of erasure bits increases, the number of CRC decoding operations grows exponentially and the probability of CRC miss detection also increases. Thus, the threshold level has to be decided according to the computational capability of each IoT device, the target BLER, and the probability of CRC miss detection. The performance of CRC miss detection and the BLER on a Rayleigh fading channel, a Rician fading channel, and a Vehicular-B channel are evaluated through computer simulation. Furthermore, cumulative distribution function curves for the number of erasure bits are also presented for different channel models.

The amount of data traffic over the mobile network is still increasing. To support such large amount of traffic, additional higher frequency usage is one of the promising techniques. The network needs to carefully associate the users to the base stations and frequency bands, since users can connect multiple BSs and multiple frequency bands in such deployments. In order to offload the users effectively, the cell range expansion (CRE) is effective, and the offset values can be optimized by the neural network (NN). In the paper, we evaluate the performance of the NN-based offset optimization in CRE for multiple frequency bands. Simulation results show the good trade-off between the performance and the amount of feedback from the users.

In order to support the mid-2020 and beyond, the development of high-speed, high-capacity wireless communication systems for 5G (5th Generation) networks has become an urgent and important issue in areas where optical fiber installation has not progressed due to geographical and economic reasons. Toward the 5G and beyond networks, HAPS (High Altitude Platform Station) which is located at an altitude of 20km can provide communication links to aircraft, drones, flying cars, ships, and expand the coverage to the sky and the sea. The HAPS makes it possible to provide low latency, high speed 5G communication services in these areas, and it is also possible to realize a communication system that can handle all use cases. This paper describes the development status of a 5G network backhaul system using HAPS in the millimeter wave band. This research and development is carried out from 2020 to 2023 by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications "Research and Development for Expansion of Radio Resources".

The high density of temporary hotspots will result in a significant reduction in data rates per user. In addition, when base stations are no longer functional in the disaster area, it is necessary to develop wireless infrastructure as soon as possible. To address this situation, we focus on UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) equipped with wireless communication infrastructure to provide services. Building a wireless network with mobility, UAVs can provide high data rates for ever-changing user distribution. In this paper, for dynamic user distributions, which have not been considered much so far, we identify issues due to differences from static user distributions and propose methods to solve them. This paper reports on the study of UAV placement method from the viewpoint of data rate and power consumption.

Collaborative multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) reception is a new form of MIMO transmission technique. In collaborative MIMO reception, neighboring mobile stations (MSs) collaborate with a target MS to decode MIMO signals from a base station. In this study, an MS side error-control scheme that utilizes multiple detection MSs within the collaborative MS group is proposed. In this scheme, a detection MS requests a better detected bit sequence from other MSs, similar to automatic repeat request performed locally. This scheme improves the error rate performance at the expense of computational complexity. Computer simulations are used to study the frame error ratio performance and the amount of collaboration traffic.

We present an Ultra-Wide Band (UWB)-based multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) control system architecture to localize and track a ground vehicle. A team of UAVs self-localizes its position and measures distance to a ground vehicle using the mounted UWB module. The server utilizes the estimated position of UAV and distance measurements collected from radio communication between ground vehicle and UAVs (i.e., mobile anchor) in order to localize the ground vehicle accurately. The server then sends next setpoint to each UAVs and enables UAVs to form a polygon-shaped formation with a ground vehicle located at the center. We demonstrate our proposed system through the indoor ground vehicle tracking experiment. Our experiment results show that localization error with the mobile anchors is less than 0.2m; in addition, the fixed anchors can be replaced with the mobile anchors.

We have undertaken an R&D project in the "advanced 5G" era that aims at accommodating various types of communication involving current and emerging services with different data flow-level quality requirements. In this paper, the objectives and the technologies of the project are presented. We propose an architecture based on a virtualized radio access network (vRAN) that enables adaptive resource control of radio, computation and transport links, and RAN function placement in accordance with spatially changing communication demands. The topics under study that are essential for realizing the advanced 5G network are as follows: (a) blockage prediction, new radio access technologies (RATs) and their implementations with software-defined radio (SDR) for nano-area using the millimeter wave band, (b) adaptive interference and resource control, integration of radio and optical resource control, highly efficient optical transport link control, adaptive RAN function replacement, and service estimation per data flow for adaptive RAN. These research topics are essential to the realization of the advanced 5G network and will become the entrance to the Beyond5G/6G system.

This paper proposes a method to change propagation path conditions for devices from non-line-of-sight (NLoS) conditions to line-of-sight (LoS) conditions using sidelink. In smart factory environments, although there are many obstacles that creates NLoS conditions for devices, many of such obstacles are also IoT devices that include a 5G transceiver. In this case, the obstacles can be relay nodes for devices nearby that are in NLoS area for base stations (BS). Thus, if the sidelink is employed for a link between the relay node and devices in NLoS conditions, a reliable wireless link is highly probable to establish. Moreover, because there are many relay node candidates for NLoS areas located devices in smart factories, devices located in NLoS area can flexibly choose an appropriate relay node as a sidelink repeater, which can enhance sidelink performances. Computer simulation confirms that the proposed scheme is very effective in enhancement of the area coverage.

This paper studies millimeter wave (mmWave) active array antennas by integrating antenna array, Anokiwave MMIC hardware and firmware design, ARM MCU, peripheral circuit design, etc. After the active array module is manufactured, the measured beam pattern is highly consistent with the simulation results of the ideal array antenna. Next, we propose a low-cost ITRI M3-Force software-defined-radio (SDR) platform to adjust the gain/phase parameters of the active array module. The measurement results validate that the parameter values are also very close to the gain/phase parameter values of the expensive network analyzer. Moreover, we measure the beam field pattern through the anechoic chamber. Based on the measured beam patterns, the proposed SDR platform adjustment has lower null pattern performance. Overall, the result provides practical and valuable validation to the antenna array module with the adjustment of ARM MCU and SDR platform.

This paper presents the average block error rate (BLER) performance of circular 256QAM schemes considering a peak-to-average power ratio measure called a cubic metric (CM) for discrete Fourier transform (DFT)-precoded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in multipath fading channels. Computer simulation results show that the required average received signal-to-noise power ratio (SNR) satisfying the average BLER of 10−2 considering the CM for the (16×16) circular 256QAM constellation is deceased by approximately 0.5 dB, and that for the (32×8) and (64×4) circular 256QAM constellations is deceased by approximately 0.3 dB compared to the rectangular 256QAM scheme when using reference signal (RS) based channel estimation. Therefore, we conclude that the circular 256QAM constellation with independent bit mapping to either the phase or amplitude information is effective in achieving a lower required average received SNR satisfying the target average BLER than that for rectangular 256QAM considering the CM in multipath fading channels.
