This letter presents a novel detection strategy for Spatially-Multiplexed Generalized Spatial Modulation systems. It is a multi-stage detection that produces a list of candidates of the transmitted signal vector, sorted according to the proximity of the data vector to one of the possible vector subspaces. The quality metric and list-length metric selects the best candidate and manages the list length, respectively. Performance results show that it significantly reduces the performance gap to the optimal maximum likelihood detector, while maintaining significant computational cost reduction.
This paper presents results on the achievable spectral efficiency and on the energy efficiency for a wireless multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) link operating at millimeter wave frequencies (mmWave) in a typical 5G scenario. Two different single-carrier modem schemes are considered, i.e., a traditional modulation scheme with linear equalization at the receiver, and a single-carrier modulation with cyclic prefix, frequency-domain equalization and FFT-based processing at the receiver; these two schemes are compared with a conventional MIMO-OFDM transceiver structure. Our analysis jointly tak…
In multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), multiple radio frequency (RF) chains are usually required to simultaneously transmit multiple data streams. As a special MIMO technology, spatial modulation (SM) activates one transmit antenna with one RF chain and exploits the index of the active antenna for information transfer at each time slot. Recently, reconfigurable metasurfaces have emerged as a promising technology that is able to reconfigure the wireless propagation environment by altering the amplitude and/or phase of the incident signal. In this article, we aim for the implementation of sin…
The problem of efficient modulation classification (MC) in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems is considered. Per-layer likelihood-based MC is proposed by employing subspace decomposition to partially decouple the transmitted streams. When detecting the modulation type of the stream of interest, a dense constellation is assumed on all remaining streams. The proposed classifier outperforms existing MC schemes at a lower complexity cost, and can be efficiently implemented in the context of joint MC and subspace data detection.
This work considers multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems using hierarchical modulation. A disadvantage of the maximum-likelihood (ML) MIMO detector is that computational complexity increases exponentially with the number of transmit antennas. To reduce complexity, we propose a hierarchical modulation scheme to be used in MIMO trans- mission where base and enhancement layers are incorporated. In the proposed receiver, the base layer is detected first with a minimum mean square error (MMSE) detector which is followed by ML detection of the enhancement layer. Our results in…
We propose Dijkstra's algorithm with bounded list size after QR decomposition for decreasing the computational complexity of near maximum-likelihood (ML) detection of signals over multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) channels. After that, we compare the performances of proposed algorithm, QR decomposition M-algorithm (QRD-MLD), and its improvement. When the list size is set to achieve the almost same symbol error rate (SER) as the QRD-MLD, the proposed algorithm has smaller average computational complexity.
Spatial complementary code keying modulation (SCCKM) is proposed as a novel block coding modulation scheme. An input binary sequence is modulated based on the different lengths of complementary code keying (CCK) modulation and then spread across the transmit antennas (spatial domain) in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system exploiting orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). At the receiver side, zero forcing equalization is applied to the OFDM modulated data to mitigate the effect of the multipath fast fading channel and then followed by maximum likelihood (ML) detection to…
The problem of radio resource allocation for global energy efficiency (GEE) maximization in mmWaves large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems using hybrid-beamforming with spatial modulation is addressed. The theoretical properties of the optimization problem at hand are analyzed and two provably convergent optimization algorithms with affordable complexity are proposed. The former achieves the global optimum, while the latter trades off optimality with a lower computational complexity. Nevertheless, numerical results show that both algorithms attain global optimality in practi…
Massive Multiple-input Multiple-output (MIMO) systems offer exciting opportunities due to their high spectral efficiencies capabilities. On the other hand, one major issue in these scenarios is the high-complexity detectors of such systems.

The proposed algorithm is derived from the likelihood-ascent search (LAS) algorithm and it is shown to achieve near ML perfo…
Generalized spatial modulation (GenSM) aided millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) has recently received substantial academic attention. However, due to the insufficient exploitation of the transmitter's knowledge of the channel state information (CSI), the achievable rates of state-of-the-art GenSM-aided mmWave MIMO systems are far from being optimal. Against this background, a novel analog precoding scheme is proposed in this paper to improve the spectral efficiency (SE) of conventional GenSM-aided mmWave MIMOs. More specifically, we firstly manage to lower-bound the…
In this paper, we consider {\em media-based modulation (MBM)}, an attractive modulation scheme which is getting increased research attention recently, for the uplink of a massive MIMO system. Each user is equipped with one transmit antenna with multiple radio frequency (RF) mirrors (parasitic elements) placed near it. The base station (BS) is equipped with tens to hundreds of receive antennas. MBM with $m_{rf}$ RF mirrors and $n_r$ receive antennas over a multipath channel has been shown to asymptotically (as $m_{rf}\rightarrow \infty$) achieve the capacity of $n_r$ parallel AWGN channels. Thi…
Both antenna selection and spatial modulation allow for low-complexity MIMO transmitters when the number of RF chains is much lower than the number of transmit antennas. In this manuscript, we present a quantitative performance comparison between these two approaches by taking into account implementational restrictions, such as antenna switching. We consider a band-limitedMIMO system, for which the pulse shape is designed, such that the outband emission satisfies a desired spectral mask. The bit error rate is determined for this system, considering antenna selection and spatial modulation. The…
Generalized spatial modulation (GSM) uses $n_t$ transmit antenna elements but fewer transmit radio frequency (RF) chains, $n_{rf}$. Spatial modulation (SM) and spatial multiplexing are special cases of GSM with $n_{rf}=1$ and $n_{rf}=n_t$, respectively. In GSM, in addition to conveying information bits through $n_{rf}$ conventional modulation symbols (for example, QAM), the indices of the $n_{rf}$ active transmit antennas also convey information bits. In this paper, we investigate {\em GSM for large-scale multiuser MIMO communications on the uplink}. Our contributions in this paper include: ($…
Massive multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple- output (MIMO) is widely believed to be a core technology for the upcoming fifth-generation (5G) wireless communication standards. The use of low-precision digital-to-analog converters (DACs) in MU-MIMO base stations is of interest because it reduces the power consumption, system costs, and raw baseband data rates. In this paper, we develop novel algorithms for downlink precoding in massive MU-MIMO systems with 1-bit DACs that support higher-order modulation schemes such as 8-PSK or 16-QAM. Specifically, we present low-complexity nonlinear precod…
Blind algorithms for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) signals interception have recently received considerable attention because of their important applications in modern civil and military communication fields. One key step in the interception process is to blindly recognize the modulation type of the MIMO signals. This can be performed by employing a Modulation Classification (MC) algorithm, which can be feature-based or likelihood-based. To overcome the problems associated with the existing likelihood-based MC algorithms, a new algorithm is developed in this paper. We formulated the MC…

In this scheme, OFDM with index modulation (OFDM-IM) concept is combined with MIMO transmission to take advantage of the benefits of these two techniques. In this paper, we shed light on the implementation and error performance analysis of the MIMO-OFDM-IM scheme for next generation 5G wireless networks. Maximum likelihood (ML), near-ML, simple minimum mean square …
The application of hybrid precoding in millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems has been proved effective for reducing the number of radio frequency (RF) chains. However, the maximum number of independent data streams is conventionally restricted by the number of RF chains, which leads to limiting the spatial multiplexing gain. To further improve the achievable spectral efficiency (SE), in this paper we propose a novel generalized spatial modulation (GenSM) aided mmWave MIMO system to convey an extra data stream via the index of the active antennas group, while no…
In this paper we estimate the performance of 2*4 MIMO-MC-CDMA system using convolution code in MATLAB which highly reduces BER. MC-CDMA (Multi Carrier Code Division for Multiple Access) is a multiuser and multiple access system which is formed by the combination of OFDM and CDMA and convolution encoding scheme is used in encoder of CDMA as FEC (Forward Error Correction) code to reduce BER (Bit Error Rate). MC-CDMA system is a multicarrier system in which single wideband frequency selective carrier is converted into parallel narrowband flat fading multiple sub-carriers to optimize the performan…
A modulation classification (MC) scheme based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA) in conjunction with either maximum likelihood (ML) or Support Vector Machines (SVM) is proposed for MIMO-OFDM signals over frequency selective, time varying channels. The method is blind in the sense that it is assumed that the receiver has no information about the channel and transmitted signals other than that the spatial streams of signals are statistically independent. The processing consists of separation of the MIMO streams followed by modulation classification of the separated signals. While in general…
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with index modulation (OFDM-IM) is a novel multicarrier transmission technique which has been proposed as an alternative to classical OFDM. The main idea of OFDM-IM is the use of the indices of the active subcarriers in an OFDM system as an additional source of information. In this work, we propose multiple-input multiple-output OFDM-IM (MIMO-OFDM-IM) scheme by combining OFDM-IM and MIMO transmission techniques. The low complexity transceiver structure of the MIMO-OFDM-IM scheme is developed and it is shown via computer simulations that the proposed M…
In a recent work, a capacity-achieving scheme for the common-message two-user MIMO broadcast channel, based on single-stream coding and decoding, was described. This was obtained via a novel joint unitary triangularization which is applied to the corresponding channel matrices. In this work, the triangularization is generalized, to any (finite) number of matrices, allowing multi-user applications. To that end, multiple channel uses are jointly treated, in a manner reminiscent of space-time coding. As opposed to the two-user case, in the general case there does not always exist a perfect (capac…
This paper proposes spatial lattice modulation (SLM), a spatial modulation method for multipleinput-multiple-output (MIMO) systems. The key idea of SLM is to jointly exploit spatial, in-phase, and quadrature dimensions to modulate information bits into a multi-dimensional signal set that consists oflattice points. One major finding is that SLM achieves a higher spectral efficiency than the existing spatial modulation and spatial multiplexing methods for the MIMO channel under the constraint ofM-ary pulseamplitude-modulation (PAM) input signaling per dimension. In particular, it is shown that w…
This paper investigates the bit-interleaved coded generalized spatial modulation (BICGSM) with iterative decoding (BICGSM-ID) for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) visible light communications (VLC). In the BICGSM-ID scheme, the information bits conveyed by the signal-domain (SiD) symbols and the spatial-domain (SpD) light emitting diode (LED)-index patterns are coded by a protograph low-density parity-check (P-LDPC) code. Specifically, we propose a signal-domain symbol expanding and re-allocating (SSER) method for constructing a type of novel generalized spatial modulation (GSM) constella…
The Golden space-time trellis coded modulation (GST-TCM) scheme was proposed in \cite{Hong06} for a high rate $2\times 2$ multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system over slow fading channels. In this letter, we present the performance analysis of GST-TCM over block fading channels, where the channel matrix is constant over a fraction of the codeword length and varies from one fraction to another, independently. In practice, it is not useful to design such codes for specific block fading channel parameters and a robust solution is preferable. We then show both analytically and by simulation t…
The cost of radio frequency (RF) chains is the biggest drawback of massive MIMO millimeter wave networks. By employing spatial modulation (SM), it is possible to implement lower number of RF chains than transmit antennas but still achieve high spectral efficiency. In this work, we propose a system model of the SM scheme together with hybrid beamforming at the transmitter and digital combining at the receiver. In the proposed model, spatially-modulated bits are mapped onto indices of antenna arrays. It is shown that the proposed model achieves approximately 5dB gain over classical multi-user SM…
Due to the high cost and low energy efficiency of the dedicated radio frequency (RF) chains, the number of RF chains in a millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system is usually limited from a practical point of view. In this case, the maximum number of independent data streams is also restricted by the number of RF chains, which consequently leads to limiting the potentially attainable spatial multiplexing gain. In order to address this issue, in this paper, a novel generalized spatial modulation (GenSM) aided mmWave MIMO system is proposed, which enables the transmis…

MIMO systems are considered as most promising for wireless communications. However, with an increasing number of radio front ends the corresponding energy consumption and costs become an issue, which can be relieved by the utilization of low-resolution quantizers. In this study we propose an optimal precoding algorithm constrained to constant envelope signals and phase quantization that maximizes the minimum distance to the decision threshold at the receivers using a branch-and-bound strategy. The proposed algorithm is superior to the existing methods in terms of bit error rate. Numerical resu…
A neighborhood restricted Mixed Gibbs Sampling (MGS) based approach is proposed for low-complexity high-order modulation large-scale Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (LS-MIMO) detection. The proposed LS-MIMO detector applies a neighborhood limitation (NL) on the noisy solution from the MGS at a distance d - thus, named d-simplified MGS (d-sMGS) - in order to mitigate its impact, which can be harmful when a high order modulation is considered. Numerical simulation results considering 64-QAM demonstrated that the proposed detection method can substantially improve the MGS algorithm convergence, wh…
This study proposes a symbol-level precoding algorithm based on the minimum mean squared error design objective under a strict per antenna power constraint for PSK modulation. The proposed design is then formulated in the standard form of a second-order cone program, allowing for an optimal solution via the interior point method. Numerical results indicate that the proposed design is superior to the existing approaches in terms of bit-error-rate for the low and intermediate SNR regime.
Low-resolution precoding techniques have gained considerable attention in the wireless communications area recently. Vital but hardly discussed in literature, discrete precoding in conjunction with channel coding is the subject of this study. Unlike prior studies, we propose three different soft detection methods and an iterative detection and decoding scheme that allow the utilization of channel coding in conjunction with low-resolution precoding. Besides an exact approach for computing the extrinsic information, we propose two approximations with reduced computational complexity. Numerical r…
We provide a performance evaluation of orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation in cell-free massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) systems. By leveraging the inherent sparsity of the delay-Doppler (DD) representation of time-varying channels, we apply the embedded pilot-aided channel estimation method with reduced guard intervals and derive the minimum mean-square error estimate of the channel gains from received uplink pilots at the access points (APs). Each AP applies conjugate beamforming to transmit data to the users. We derive a closed-form expression for the individual u…
In this paper, we consider the downlink of a massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) single user transmission system operating in the millimeter wave outdoor narrowband channel environment. We propose a novel receive spatial modulation architecture aimed to reduce the power consumption at the user terminal, while attaining a significant throughput. The energy consumption reduction is obtained through the use of analog devices (amplitude detector), which reduces the number of radio frequency chains and analog-to-digital-converters (ADCs). The base station transmits spatial and modulation …
Massive MIMO, a candidate for 5G technology, promises significant gains in wireless data rates and link reliability by using large numbers of antennas (more than 64) at the base transceiver station (BTS). Extra antennas help by focusing the transmission and reception of signal energy into ever-smaller regions of space. This brings huge improvements in throughput. However, it requires a large number of Radio Frequency (RF) chains (usually equal to number of transmit antennas), which is a major drawback. One approach to overcome these issues is to use Spatial Modulation (SM). In SM, an index of …
Flat-fading channel models are usually invoked for analyzing the performance of massive spatial modulation multiple-input multiple-output (SM-MIMO) systems. However, in the context of broadband SM transmission, the severe inter-symbol-interference (ISI) caused by the frequency-selective fading channels can not be ignored, which leads to very detrimental effects on the achievable system performance, especially for single-carrier SM (SC-SM) transmission schemes. To the best of the author's knowledge, none of the previous researchers have been able to provide a thorough analysis on the achievable…
It is shown that while the mutual information curves for coded modulation (CM) and bit interleaved coded modulation (BICM) overlap in the case of a single input single output channel, the same is not true in multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channels. A method for mitigating fading in the presence of multiple transmit antennas, named coordinate interleaving (CI), is presented as a generalization of component interleaving for a single transmit antenna. The extent of any advantages of CI over BICM, relative to CM, is analyzed from a mutual information perspective; the analysis is based on an…
Massive spatial modulation aided multiple-input multiple-output (SM-MIMO) systems have recently been proposed as a novel combination of spatial modulation (SM) and of conventional massive MIMO, where the base station (BS) is equipped with a large number of antennas and simultaneously serves multiple user equipment (UE) that employ SM for their uplink transmission. Since the massive SM-MIMO concept combines the benefits of both the SM and massive MIMO techniques, it has recently attracted substantial research interest. In this paper, we study the achievable uplink spectral efficiency (SE) of a …
The space-time bit-interleaved coded modulation (ST-BICM) is an efficient technique to obtain high diversity and coding gain on a block-fading MIMO channel. Its maximum-likelihood (ML) performance is computed under ideal interleaving conditions, which enables a global optimization taking into account channel coding. Thanks to a diversity upperbound derived from the Singleton bound, an appropriate choice of the time dimension of the space-time coding is possible, which maximizes diversity while minimizing complexity. Based on the analysis, an optimized interleaver and a set of linear precoders,…
We propose an optimal low-resolution precoding technique that minimizes the symbol error probability of the users. Unlike existing approaches that rely on QPSK modulation, for the derivation of the minimum symbol error probability objective function the current approach allows for any PSK modulation order. Moreover, the proposed method solves the corresponding discrete optimization problem optimally via a sophisticated branch-and-bound method. Moreover, we propose different approaches based on the greedy search method to compute practical solutions. Numerical simulations confirm the superiorit…
Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) is a novel modulation scheme designed in the Doppler-delay domain to fully exploit time and frequency diversity of general time-varying channels. In this paper, we present a novel discrete-time analysis of OFDM-based OTFS transceiver with a concise and vectorized input-output relationship that clearly characterizes the contribution of each underlying signal processing block in such systems. When adopting cyclic prefix in the time domain, our analysis reveals that the proposed MIMO OTFS and OFDM systems have the same ergodic capacity despite the well-known…
Index modulation (IM) reduces the power consumption and hardware cost of the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system by activating part of the antennas for data transmission. However, IM significantly increases the complexity of the receiver and needs accurate channel estimation to guarantee its performance. To tackle these challenges, in this paper, we design a deep learning (DL) based detector for the IM aided MIMO (IM-MIMO) systems. We first formulate the detection process as a sparse reconstruction problem by utilizing the inherent attributes of IM. Then, based on greedy strategy, we …
This letter presents a comprehensive framework analyzing the asymptotic error performance of a multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) wireless system employing spatial modulation (SM) with maximum likelihood detection and perfect channel state information. Generic analytical expressions for the diversity and coding gains are deduced that reveal fundamental properties of MIMO SM systems. The presented analysis can be used to obtain closed-form upper bounds for the average bit error probability (ABEP) of MIMO SM systems under generalized fading which become asymptotically tight in the high signal…
We propose a novel scheme for downlink multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, called dual-layered transmit-receive generalized spatial modulation (DL-TR-GSM). The proposed scheme is based on the concept of dual-layered transmission (DLT) which uses two receive antenna power levels instead of receive antenna activation/inactivation to transmit data in the receive spatial domain. Hence, in order to minimize the bit error rate (BER) for DL-TR-GSM, the optimal ratio between the two power levels is determined. To further characterize DL-TR-GSM, we fully derive the computational co…
This paper presents the first network-coded multiple access (NCMA) system prototype operated on high-order modulations up to 16-QAM. NCMA jointly exploits physical-layer network coding (PNC) and multiuser decoding (MUD) to boost throughput of multipacket reception systems. Direct generalization of the existing NCMA decoding algorithm, originally designed for BPSK, to high-order modulations, will lead to huge performance degradation. The throughput degradation is caused by the relative phase offset between received signals from different nodes. To circumvent the phase offset problem, this paper…
In this paper, we study the performance of space modulation for Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) wireless systems with imperfect channel knowledge at the receiver. We focus our attention on two transmission technologies, which are the building blocks of space modulation: i) Space Shift Keying (SSK) modulation; and ii) Time-Orthogonal-Signal-Design (TOSD-) SSK modulation, which is an improved version of SSK modulation providing transmit-diversity. We develop a single-integral closed-form analytical framework to compute the Average Bit Error Probability (ABEP) of a mismatched detector for b…
The combination of millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems and index modulation (IM) technique has recently constituted a novel form of mmWave hybrid beamforming. Lots of studies have been conducted to show that such system has the potential to outperform conventional mmWave-MIMOs with respect to spectral efficiency (SE). Most of the current works only focused on designing hybrid beamforming structures to empirically achieve higher SE performance. However, a fundamental question that whether IM technique can truly improve the SE of current mmWave hybrid beamformi…
Index modulation (IM) brings the reduction of power consumption and complexity of the transmitter to classical multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems. However, due to the introduction of IM, the complexity of the detector at receiver is greatly increased. Furthermore, the detector also requires the channel state information at receiver, which leads to high system overhead. To tackle these challenges, in this paper, we introduce deep learning (DL) in designing a non-iterative detector. Specifically, based on the structural sparsity of the t…
The problem of modulation classification for a multiple-antenna (MIMO) system employing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is investigated under the assumption of unknown frequency-selective fading channels and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The classification problem is formulated as a Bayesian inference task, and solutions are proposed based on Gibbs sampling and mean field variational inference. The proposed methods rely on a selection of the prior distributions that adopts a latent Dirichlet model for the modulation type and on the Bayesian network formalism. The Gibbs samplin…
Future wireless networks will extensively rely upon bandwidths centered on carrier frequencies larger than 10GHz. Indeed, recent research has shown that, despite the large path-loss, millimeter wave (mmWave) frequencies can be successfully exploited to transmit very large data-rates over short distances to slowly moving users. Due to hardware complexity and cost constraints, single-carrier modulation schemes, as opposed to the popular multi-carrier schemes, are being considered for use at mmWave frequencies. This paper presents preliminary studies on the achievable spectral efficiency on a wir…
In this paper, we propose a low complexity graph-based linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) equalizer in order to remove inter-symbol and inter-stream interference in multiple input multiple output (MIMO) communication. The proposed state space representation inflicted on the graph provides linearly increasing computational complexity with block length. Also, owing to the Gaussian assumption used in the presented cycle-free factor graph, the complexity of the suggested equalizer structure is not affected by the size of the signalling space. In addition, we introduce an efficient way of com…
A novel space-time parallel index modulation scheme is proposed in this paper for conveying extra digital information with the aid of space and time indices. In this proposed scheme, time-indexing is cleverly performed in parallel spatial modulation (PSM) schemes using transmit antenna grouping, and referred to as time-indexed parallel spatial modulation (TI-PSM). In this scheme, transmit antennas are divided into groups to adopt TI-SM scheme in large-scale multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems with inter-channel interference (ICI) avoidance. This scheme is attractive due to both the h…
Delay alignment modulation (DAM) is a novel wideband communication technique, which exploits the high spatial resolution and multi-path sparsity of millimeter wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to mitigate inter-symbol interference (ISI), without relying on conventional techniques like channel equalization or multi-carrier transmission. In this paper, we extend the DAM technique to multi-user mmWave massive MIMO communication systems. We first provide asymptotic analysis by showing that when the number of base station (BS) antennas is much larger than the total…
At this present scenario, the demand of the system capacity is very high in wireless network. MIMO technology is used from the last decade to provide this requirement for wireless network antenna technology. MIMO channels are mostly used for advanced antenna array technology. But it is most important to control the error rate with enhanced system capacity in MIMO for present-day progressive wireless communication. This paper explores the frame error rate with respect to different path gain of MIMO channel. This work has been done in different fading scenario and produces a comparative analysis…
We propose a modulus based zero-forcing (MZF) detection for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channels. Traditionally, a ZF detector nulls out all interferences from other layers when detecting a current layer, which can yield suboptimal detection-performance due to the noise-enhancement issue. In many communication systems, finite alphabets such as M quadrature-amplitude-modulation (QAM) are widely used, which comprises \sqrt{M} pulse-amplitude-modulation (PAM) symbols for the real and imaginary parts. With finite alphabets, one feasible way to improve ZF detection is to allow controllable inte…

Millimeter wave multiple-input multiple-output (mmWave-MIMO) systems with small number of radio-frequency (RF) chains have limited multiplexing gain. Spatial path index modulation (SPIM) is helpful in improving this gain by utilizing additional signal bits modulated by the indices of spatial paths. In this paper, we introduce model-based and model-free frameworks for beamformer design in multi-user SPIM-MIMO systems. We first design the beamformers via model-based manifold optimization algorithm. Then, we leverage federated learning (FL) with dropout learning (DL) to train a learning model on …
Unsourced random access (URA) is an increasingly popular communication paradigm attuned to machine driven data transfers in \textit{Internet-of-Things} (IoT) networks. In a typical URA setting, a small subset of active devices within a very large population wish to transmit short messages to a central base station. Originally defined for base stations equipped with a single antenna, the URA paradigm has recently been extended to practical scenarios involving base stations with a massive number of antennas by Fengler et al. The proposed concatenated coding scheme therein utilizes a non-Bayesian…
