Opportunistic beamforming has always been attracting plenty of attentions due to its capability of inducing large channel fluctuations and providing high multiuser diversity gain. However, in most of the existing opportunistic beamforming schemes, only one user is scheduled for data transmission at each time slot. To serve more users simultaneously, in this paper, a novel non-orthogonal scheduling algorithm is proposed from the perspectives of perfect successive interference cancellation (SIC) and system rate maximization. Simulation results validate that the proposed scheme achieves an obvious performance gain over two conventional baseline schemes.

This paper presents a reconfigurable water dense dielectric patch antenna (DDPA) with cross-shape feeding structure. The distilled water patch acts as an electric wall. The height of distilled water in the polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic box can be adjusted for frequency reconfiguration. The cross-shape feeding structure and the cylindrical copper is used for improving the impedance matching. Moreover, an air gap is inserted between the water patch and the substrate to improve radiation efficiency. Impedance bandwidth of the antenna achieves 20% and radiation efficiency is 50%-75%.

A broadband circularly polarized (CP) monopole antenna with an annular open-loop is presented. By introducing an gap on the loop, the presented antenna features broadband and produces a bidirectional CP radiation. The simulated results show that the proposed antenna has the advantage of broadband CP characteristics in terms of an impedance bandwidth with $mathbf{S11 < -10 dB}$ of 96.1% from 2.7 to 7.7 GHz and a 3-dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth of 81.3% in the frequency range of 2.7 to 6.4 GHz.

In this paper, a metallic grating structure with varying depth is presented for beam-wave interaction. The DC electron beam flies above the structure and backward spoof surface plasmon mode is excited. When the electromagnetic power flow reaches the left-hand of grating structure, it is trapped down and reflected to propagate forwardly due to rainbow trapped storage of terahertz wave. With energy reflecting and transmitting at both ends of this structure, a regenerate feedback is realized and a THz pulse is amplified repeatedly. This system achieved the maximum output power over 1.5 W after four times of reflections at 1 THz with a 3 kV/20mA electron beam.

The metasurfaces have recently been demonstrated to provide full control of the phase responses of electromagnetic (EM) wave scattering over subwavelength scales, enabling a wide range of practical applications. Here, a method for fast design of polarization-independent metasurfaces is proposed. A nonlinear fitting scenarios is employed to precisely predict reflective phase response of the metasurface. To obtain the optimal performance, nonlinear fitting scheme and genetic algorithm are combined. Since low-Q-factor resonant able to introduce wideband and smooth phase response, combining with lossless substrate, the metasurface with high reflective amplitude and wideband corresponding phase response can be obtained. As verify, two types metasurface examples characterized of coding metasurface on RCS reduction and reflective focusing lens are demonstrated.

In this paper, the tolerance of power amplifier's (PA) characteristics is investigated for a shared digital predistortion (DPD) solution for massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. By modeling different behaviors, the range of model coefficients can be employed to indicate the similarity of PAs and calculated by adding an offset to the least-squares objective function. Simulation results of a 16-path transmitter with 16 similar PAs are presented, which show that these PAs can be linearized by only one share DPD and the adjacent channel leakage ratio (ACLR) for all branches can meet the specific spectrum requirement, that is, -45 dBc.

In this paper, a method using genetic algorithm to suppress the grating lobe of a wideband planar array is presented. With the alteration of operating frequency point, the electrical size of distance between two adjacent elements will change thereupon. This approach achieves the suppression of grating lobe at high operating frequency point, whose highest sidelobe level is around −10 dB, with little influence to array's radiation characteristic of lower frequency point. For this approach's practicability, simple dipole antenna is adopted as the array's element to check out whether the approach keeps validity by simulation.
