The objective of this paper is to determine the ranging performance of the upcoming fifth generation (5G) signal. In order to do so, it is required to define 5G correlator outputs mathematical models. 5G systems will use OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) signals; in the literature, mathematical models of OFDM signals are developed at the different receiver signal processing stages. These models assumed that the propagation channel is constant over an OFDM symbol; nevertheless, an in-depth study of QuaDRiGa, a 5G compliant propagation channel simulator, invalidates this hypothesis. Therefore, in this paper, mathematical models are developed that take into account the channel evolution. The focus is given on correlator outputs and results are applied to the computation of 5G based pseudo range accuracy.

As a new type of rateless codes, Spinal codes can be proved in theory that it can achieve capacity over both the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel and the binary symmetric channel (BSC) with short message length. Due to the good adaptability under different channel conditions, Spinal codes have broad prospects in ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) scenarios such as self-driving car and factory automation. However, Spinal codes transmitted by short codes need frequent times of feedback, while transmitted by long codes have a high decoding complexity, which limits the practical application of Spinal codes. In this work, a new type of encoding scheme named as segmented CRC-aided scheme is proposed. In this scheme, message is equally divided into λ segments, each of which is concatenated with a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) sequence. At the decoding end, all the segments are decoded in parallel, and the correspondingly CRC check results are collected and transmitted back to the encoder together. The encoder judges the current decoding state through the feedback and then constructs the next encoding pass accordingly. The segmented CRC-aided scheme combines the advantages of long codes transmission and short codes transmission of the Spinal codes, it uses fewer feedbacks, and it can reduce the transmission of redundance bits. Results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has significant performance improvement over the original Spinal encoding scheme by achieving higher code rate with lower encoding complexity.

This paper postulates the secrecy performance of an underlay cognitive radio network where legitimate receiver combines signal replicas per threshold-based maximal ratio combining (MRC), and secondary transmitter selects a single antenna based on combined signal to noise ratio at a legitimate receiver in the presence of multiple eavesdroppers. Output threshold-based MRC scheme is the variant of the MRC scheme which saves processing power at the legitimate receiver and also provides considerable improvement in secrecy performance. For this scenario, we derive new closed-form expressions for exact secrecy outage probability. Numerical results show that output- threshold MRC technique leads to less power consumption while providing the same performance as conventional MRC.

Two sequential relay selection strategies are investigated for a cooperative relay-assisted device-to-device (D2D) communication underlaying cellular network over mixed fading channels. The relay selection schemes aim to improve the D2D communication performance and the wireless physical layer security of the cellular network. In this paper, the study is conducted analytically by obtaining an expression for the secrecy outage probability (SOP) of the cellular network. Moreover, in an effort to assess the usefulness of the cooperation between the two networks, an expression for the mutual outage probability (MOP)â€"which represents the true outage probability across both the D2D and cellular networksâ€"is derived. Also, an asymptotic analysis of the MOP in the high signal-to-noise ratio regime is obtained and the diversity order is evaluated. Monte-Carlo simulations are provided to validate the accuracy of our proposed analytical framework.

Most of the classic fading variables can be obtained through Nakagami-m distribution and the sum of them has a pivotal role in the analytical performance evaluation of many practical wireless applications. However, the exact probability density function (PDF) of this sum of fading variables could be difficult to obtain. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the Maximum Likelihood Estimation to find a simple accurate approximation to the probability density function of the sum of Nakagami-m random variables. This approach provides expressions that can be used straightforwardly in the performance analysis of a number of wireless communication systems including multibranch receivers such as Maximal Ratio Combining and Equal Gain Combining, for which we present the application of the proposed framework. Numerical simulations show that our proposed method outperforms the well- known approach based on moment-matching method in terms of accuracy and simplicity. Moreover, the easiness of our proposal makes it suitable to be incorporated in network simulators to model and configure several wireless environments without additional computational complexity.

To further improve the spectrum efficiency of 5G massive MIMO networks, bi-directional training (BiT) was developed for TDD systems to maximize the downlink weighted sum rate. However, the previous work was limited to narrowband systems. In this paper, we extend BiT for 5G wideband systems. A global, centralized optimization problem is first formulated for a wideband system. The (sub-optimal) solution is then distributed across the base stations and user equipment (UE), resulting into a wideband BiT algorithm that iteratively adapts transmission and reception filters for each base station and each UE with only local information. The algorithm may be seen as a narrowband BiT operating on an optimal narrowband representation of a group of subcarriers each with a different channel, and the optimal narrowband representation maintains the first and second moments of all the channels. Simulation results are provided to evaluate the performance of the algorithm in a wideband system.

In this paper, robust transceiver designs are proposed for millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output cooperative systems with the amplify-and-forward cooperative strategy. Hybrid structures are adopted to jointly design the processors at the source, the relay, and the destination, respectively. Contrariwise to most existing works that develop codebook-based solutions with perfect channel state information (CSI) assumptions, the proposed designs present codebook- free solutions based on the so-called Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers approach and imperfect CSI with Gaussian-distributed errors. Numerical results show that the proposed designs provide substantial improved spectral efficiencies compared with the existing designs.

In full-duplex wireless communication systems, transmission signals travel through self-interference radio channels before they will be received by the local receivers. This paper studies time dispersion characteristics of these channels for an indoor cross-polarized 2x2 multiple-input-multiple-output antenna (MIMO) system. Four cross- polarized radio channels - excited by two transmit antennas and captured by two receive antennas perpendicularly polarized to the transmit antennas - were measured in an indoor spacious foyer (entrance hall) environment. By means of a vector network analyzer, one gigahertz of bandwidth, which occupies 2-to-3-GHz frequency band, was swept to sound these self-interference channels. The four vector network analyzer test ports were connected to two dually- polarized magnetoelectric dipole antennas that were utilized to observe the self-interference channels. Each of the dipole antennas possesses: Two radio-frequency ports, a hemispherical radiation pattern, and an excellent cross-polarization discrimination properties. The antennas were placed at two meter height and moved in track along the room circumference to measure the self-interference channels at 27 positions. The excellent cross-polarization isolation properties of the utilized antennas has allowed to capture a time- domain instantaneous channel dynamic that exceeds 120 dB - normalized with respect to the transmit power at the antennas' physical ports. This vast dynamic has used to analyze the channel with sliding sensitivity threshold. The channel measurement reports maximum excess delays up to 689 ns. Furthermore, time dispersion parameters and their associated values are discussed and reported in this paper based on the conducted self-interference channel measurements.

A study of a multi-hop decode-and-forward (DF) simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) sensor network system is presented in this work. In the studied system model, a source communicates with a destination through the aid of multi-hop relays which harvest energy from their received signals. We apply power splitting (PS) based SWIPT relaying protocols for the relays harvesting energy. Focused on DF relaying protocol, we aim to minimize the transmit power at the source under a set end-to-end throughput constraint by optimizing PS ratios at the relays. Based on convex optimization techniques, the globally optimal PS ratio solution is obtained as a closed-form solution. Numerical results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed optimal design over the conventional fixed PS ratio scheme.
