In this paper, we investigate the joint resource allocation and antenna selection algorithm design for uplink orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) communication system. We propose a multi-objective optimization framework to strike a balance between spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE). The resource allocation design is formulated as a multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP), where the conflicting objective functions are linearly combined into a single objective function employing the weighted sum method. In order to develop an efficient solution, the majorization minimization (MM) approach is proposed where a surrogate function serves as a lower bound of the objective function. Then an iterative suboptimal algorithm is proposed to maximize the approximate objective function. Numerical results unveil an interesting tradeoff between the considered conflicting system design objectives and reveal the improved EE and SE facilitated by the proposed transmit antenna selection in OFDMA systems.
In the paper "Finite-SNR Diversity-Multiplexing Tradeoff for Network Coded Cooperative OFDMA Systems', the authors adopt a recently proposed subcarrier allocation algorithm aiming at providing optimal frequency diversity to an OFDMA-based network with network-coded cooperation (NCC), where $P$ source nodes transmit independent information to a common destination with the help of $M$ relay nodes, in a frequency-selective channel with $L$ coherence blocks. However, the analysis of the so-called NCC-OFDMA scheme proposed in the aforementioned paper assumes that the subcarrier allocation algorithm…
In this paper, we investigate the worst-case robust beamforming design and resource block (RB) assignment problem for total transmit power minimization of the central controller while guaranteeing each robot's transmission with target number of data bits and within required ultra-low latency and extremely high reliability. By using the property of the independence of each robot's beamformer design, we can obtain the equivalent power control design form of the original beamforming design. The binary RB mapping indicators are transformed into continuous ones with additional $\ell_0$-norm constra…
The problem of joint sub-channel, power control and antenna selection in the uplink of OFDMA networks is investigated. The corresponding optimization problem is a non convex mixed integer non-linear problem(MINLP). To tackle the problem, an iterative two-step optimization problem is devised. First,~Having fixed the selected antenna as well as the associated power of each user,~a sub-channel assignment problem using the so-called Hungarian method is proposed. Second, the joint power and antenna selection problem is extended into a more elegant form through adding a penalty term to the objective…
An important challenge of wireless networks is to boost the cell edge performance and enable multi-stream transmissions to cell edge users. Interference mitigation techniques relying on multiple antennas and coordination among cells are nowadays heavily studied in the literature. Typical strategies in OFDMA networks include coordinated scheduling, beamforming and power control. In this paper, we propose a novel and practical type of coordination for OFDMA downlink networks relying on multiple antennas at the transmitter and the receiver. The transmission ranks, i.e.\ the number of transmitted …
We consider multi-antenna base stations using orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) and space division multiple access (SDMA) techniques to serve single antenna users, where some of those users have minimum rate requirements and must be served in the current time slot (real time users), while others do not have strict timing constraints (non real time users) and are served on a best effort basis. The resource allocation problem is to find the user assignment to subcarriers and the transmit beamforming vectors that maximize a linear utility function of the user rates subject to …
Heterogeneous network is a novel network architecture proposed in Long-Term-Evolution~(LTE), which highly increases the capacity and coverage compared with the conventional networks. However, in order to provide the best services, appropriate resource management must be applied. In this paper, we consider the joint optimization problem of user association, subchannel allocation, and power allocation for downlink transmission in Multi-cell Multi-association Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) heterogeneous networks. To solve the optimization problem, we first divide it into tw…
In this paper, we study the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in downlink multiuser orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) systems, where each user applies power splitting scheme to coordinate the energy harvesting and secrecy information decoding processes. Assuming equal power allocation across subcarriers, we formulate the problem to maximize the aggregate harvested power of all users while satisfying secrecy rate requirement of individual user by joint subcarrier allocation and optimal power splitting ratio selection. Due to the NP-hardness of the …
This paper studies the multi-antenna multicast channel with integrated sensing and communication (ISAC), in which a multi-antenna base station (BS) sends common messages to a set of single-antenna communication users (CUs) and simultaneously estimates the parameters of an extended target via radar sensing. We investigate the fundamental performance limits of this ISAC system, in terms of the achievable rate for communication and the estimation Cramér-Rao bound (CRB) for sensing. First, we derive the optimal transmit covariance in semi-closed form to balance the CRB-rate (C-R) tradeoff, and acc…
In this paper, we formulate and solve a weighted-sum transmitter and receiver energy minimization (WSTREMin) problem in the downlink of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based multiuser wireless system. The proposed approach offers the flexibility of assigning different levels of importance to base station (BS) and mobile terminal (MT) power consumption, corresponding to the BS being connected to the grid and the MT relying on batteries. To obtain insights into the characteristics of the problem, we first consider two extreme cases separately, i.e., weighted-sum receiver-sid…
This paper investigates the energy efficient resource allocation for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) relay systems, where the system is supplied by the conventional utility grid and a renewable energy generator equipped with a storage device. The optimal usage of radio resource depends on the characteristics of the renewable energy generation and the mobile traffic, which exhibit both temporal and spatial diversities. Lyapunov optimization method is used to decompose the problem into the joint flow control, radio resource allocation and energy management without knowing a…
In order to further exploit the potential of joint multi-antenna radar-communication (RadCom) system, we propose two transmission techniques respectively based on separated and shared antenna deployments. Both techniques are designed to maximize the weighted sum rate (WSR) and the probing power at target's location under average power constraints at the antennas such that the system can simultaneously communicate with downlink users and detect the target within the same frequency band. Based on a Weighted Minimized Mean Square Errors (WMMSE) method, the separated deployment transmission is des…
This paper considers the resource allocation algorithm design for downlink multiple-input single-output (MISO) orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) systems. To meet the stringent delay requirements of URLLC, short packet transmission is adopted and taken into account for resource allocation algorithm design. The resource allocation is optimized for maximization of the weighted system sum throughput subject to quality-of-service (QoS) constraints regarding the URLLC users' number of transmitted bits, packet error probability, and…
We consider a dense fading multi-user network with multiple active multi-antenna source-destination pair terminals communicating simultaneously through a large common set of $K$ multi-antenna relay terminals in the full spatial multiplexing mode. We use Shannon-theoretic tools to analyze the tradeoff between energy efficiency and spectral efficiency (known as the power- bandwidth tradeoff) in meaningful asymptotic regimes of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and network size. We design linear distributed multi-antenna relay beamforming (LDMRB) schemes that exploit the spatial signature of multi-user…
Rate-splitting (RS) has recently been recognized as a promising physical-layer technique for multi-antenna broadcast channels (BC). Due to its ability to partially decode the interference and partially treat the remaining interference as noise, RS is an enabler for a powerful multiple access, namely rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA), that has been shown to achieve higher spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE) than both space division multiple access (SDMA) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in a wide range of user deployments and network loads. As SE maximization and EE…

In this paper, a multiple-relay network in considered, in which $K$ single-antenna relays assist a single-antenna transmitter to communicate with a single-antenna receiver in a half-duplex mode. A new Amplify and Forward (AF) scheme is proposed for this network and is shown to achieve the optimum diversity-multiplexing trade-off curve.
We consider multi-antenna base stations using orthogonal frequency division multiple access and space division multiple access techniques to serve single-antenna users. Some users, called real-time users, have minimum rate requirements and must be served in the current time slot while others, called non real-time users, do not have strict timing constraints and are served on a best-effort basis. The resource allocation problem is to find the assignment of users to subcarriers and the transmit beamforming vectors that maximize the total user rates subject to power and minimum rate constraints. …
In this paper the fading multiple antenna (MIMO) wire-tap channel is investigated under short term power constraints. The secret diversity gain and the secret multiplexing gain are defined. Using these definitions, the secret diversitymultiplexing tradeoff (DMT) is calculated analytically for no transmitter side channel state information (CSI) and for full CSI. When there is no CSI at the transmitter, under the assumption of Gaussian codebooks, it is shown that the eavesdropper steals both transmitter and receiver antennas, and the secret DMT depends on the remaining degrees of freedom. When C…
This paper investigates the benefits of Amplify-and-Forward (AF) relaying in the setup of multi-antenna wireless networks. The concept of Random Sequential (RS) relaying is previously introduced in the literature and showed that it achieves the maximum diversity gain in a general multi-antenna network. Here, we show that random unitary matrix multiplication at the relay nodes empowers the RS scheme to achieve a better Diversity-Multiplexing Tradeoff (DMT) as compared to the traditional AF relaying. First, we study the case of a multi-antenna full-duplex single-relay two-hop network, for which …
The ongoing commercial deployment of millimeter wave systems brings into focus a number of practical issues in form factor user equipment (UE) design. With wavelengths becoming smaller, antenna gain patterns becoming directional, and link budgets critically dependent on beamforming, it becomes imperative to use a number of antenna modules at different locations of the UE for good performance. While more antennas/modules can enhance beamforming array gains, it comes with the tradeoff of higher component cost, power consumption of the associated radio frequency circuitry, and a beam management o…
To improve diversity gain in an interference channel and hence to maximize diversity multiplexing tradeoff (DMT), we propose on-off switched interference alignment (IA) where IA is intermittently utilized by switching IA on/off. For on-off switching, either IA with symbol extension or IA with Alamouti coding is adopted in this paper. Deriving and analyzing DMT of the proposed schemes, we reveal that the intermittent utilization of IA with simultaneous non-unique decoding can improve DMT in the 2-user X-channel with two antennas. Both the proposed schemes are shown to achieve diversity gain of …
An energy-efficient design is proposed under specific statistical quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees for delay-sensitive traffic in the downlink orthogonal frequency-division multiple-access (OFDMA) networks. This design is based on Wu's $\textit{effective capacity}$ (EC) concept [1], which characterizes the maximum throughput of a system subject to statistical delay-QoS requirements at the data-link layer. In the particular context considered, our main contributions consist of quantifying the $\textit{effective energy-efficiency}$ (EEE)-versus-EC tradeoff and characterizing the delay-sensiti…
In this paper, we consider a multi-antenna system where the receiver should harvest energy from the transmitter by wireless energy transfer to support its wireless information transmission. In order to maximize the harvesting energy, we propose to perform adaptive energy beamforming according to the instantaneous channel state information (CSI). To help the transmitter to obtain the CSI for energy beamforming, we further propose a win-win CSI quantization feedback strategy, so as to improve the efficiencies of both power and information transmission. The focus of this paper is on the tradeoff …
In this paper, the performance of an underlay multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cognitive radio system is analytically studied. In particular, the secondary transmitter operates in a spatial multiplexing transmission mode, while a zero-forcing detector is employed at the secondary receiver. Additionally, the secondary system is interfered by single-antenna primary users (PUs). To enhance the performance of secondary transmission, optimal power allocation is performed at the secondary transmitter with a constraint on the maximum allowable outage threshold specified by the PUs. Further, the …
In this work, we investigate the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of the multiple-antenna (MIMO) static half-duplex relay channel. A general expression is derived for the DMT upper bound, which can be achieved by a compress-and-forward protocol at the relay, under certain assumptions. The DMT expression is given as the solution of a minimization problem in general, and an explicit expression is found when the relay channel is symmetric in terms of number of antennas, i.e. the source and the destination have n antennas each, and the relay has m antennas. It is observed that the static half…
This paper studies the setup of a multiple-relay network in which $K$ half-duplex multiple-antenna relays assist in the transmission between a/several multiple-antenna transmitter(s) and a multiple-antenna receiver. Each two nodes are assumed to be either connected through a quasi-static Rayleigh fading channel, or disconnected. We propose a new scheme, which we call \textit{random sequential} (RS), based on the amplify-and-forward relaying. We prove that for general multiple-antenna multiple-relay networks, the proposed scheme achieves the maximum diversity gain. Furthermore, we derive divers…
The problem of joint power and sub-channel allocation to maximize energy efficiency (EE) and spectral efficiency (SE) simultaneously in in-band full-duplex (IBFD) orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) network is addressed considering users' QoS in both uplink and downlink. The resulting optimization problem is a non-convex mixed-integer non-linear program (MINLP) which is generally difficult to solve. In order to strike a balance between the EE and SE, we restate this problem as a multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP) which aims at maximizing system's throughput and minim…
In this paper, we investigate physical-layer security for a spectrum-sharing heterogeneous cellular network comprised of a macro cell and a small cell, where a passive eavesdropper is assumed to tap the transmissions of both the macro cell and small cell. In the macro cell, a macro base station (MBS) equipped with multiple distributed antennas sends its confidential information to a macro user (MU) through an opportunistic transmit antenna. Meanwhile, in the small cell, a small base station (SBS) transmits to a small user (SU) over the same spectrum used by MBS. We propose an interference-canc…
We consider a general multiple antenna network with multiple sources, multiple destinations and multiple relays in terms of the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT). We examine several subcases of this most general problem taking into account the processing capability of the relays (half-duplex or full-duplex), and the network geometry (clustered or non-clustered). We first study the multiple antenna relay channel with a full-duplex relay to understand the effect of increased degrees of freedom in the direct link. We find DMT upper bounds and investigate the achievable performance of decode-a…
Recently, terahertz (THz) communication has drawn considerable attention as one of the promising technologies for the future wireless communications owning to its ultra-wide bandwidth. Nonetheless, one major obstacle that prevents the actual deployment of THz lies in its inherent huge attenuation. Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) represent two effective solutions for compensating the large pathloss in THz systems. In this paper, we consider an IRS-aided multi-user THz MIMO system with orthogonal frequency division multiple access, where the sparse …
Multi-hop relay channels use multiple relay stages, each with multiple relay nodes, to facilitate communication between a source and destination. Previously, distributed space-time codes were proposed to maximize the achievable diversity-multiplexing tradeoff, however, they fail to achieve all the points of the optimal diversity-multiplexing tradeoff. In the presence of a low-rate feedback link from the destination to each relay stage and the source, this paper proposes an end-to-end antenna selection (EEAS) strategy as an alternative to distributed space-time codes. The EEAS strategy uses a s…
With over-deployed network infrastructures, network densification is shown to hinder the improvement of user experience and system performance. In this paper, we adopt multi-antenna techniques to overcome the bottleneck and investigate the performance of single-user beamforming, an effective method to enhance desired signal power, in small cell networks from the perspective of user coverage probability (CP) and network spatial throughput (ST). Pessimistically, it is proved that, even when multi-antenna techniques are applied, both CP and ST would be degraded and even asymptotically diminish to…
In High Speed Train Communications (HSTC), the most challenging issue is coping with the extremely fast fading channel. Compared with its static counterpart, channel estimation on the move consumes excessive energy and spectrum to achieve similar performance. To address this issue, we exploit the delay correlation inherent in the linear spatial-temporal structure of multi-antenna array, based on which the rapid fading channel may be approximated by a virtual slow-fading channel. Subsequently, error probability and spectral efficiency are re-examined for this staticized channel. In particular, …
Fading MIMO relay channels are studied analytically, when the source and destination are equipped with multiple antennas and the relays have a single one. Compact closed-form expressions are obtained for the outage probability under i.i.d. and correlated Rayleigh-fading links. Low-outage approximations are derived, which reveal a number of insights, including the impact of correlation, of the number of antennas, of relay noise and of relaying protocol. The effect of correlation is shown to be negligible, unless the channel becomes almost fully correlated. The SNR loss of relay fading channels …
We analyze fading relay networks, where a single-antenna source-destination terminal pair communicates through a set of half-duplex single-antenna relays using a two-hop protocol with linear processing at the relay level. A family of relaying schemes is presented which achieves the entire optimal diversity-multiplexing (DM) tradeoff curve. As a byproduct of our analysis, it follows that delay diversity and phase-rolling at the relay level are optimal with respect to the entire DM-tradeoff curve, provided the delays and the modulation frequencies, respectively, are chosen appropriately.
This paper investigates antenna selection at a base station with large antenna arrays and low-resolution analog-to-digital converters. For downlink transmit antenna selection for narrowband channels, we show (1) a selection criterion that maximizes sum rate with zero-forcing precoding equivalent to that of a perfect quantization system; (2) maximum sum rate increases with number of selected antennas; (3) derivation of the sum rate loss function from using a subset of antennas; and (4) unlike high-resolution converter systems, sum rate loss reaches a maximum at a point of total transmit power a…
In this paper, we investigate the coexistence of two technologies that have been put forward for the fifth generation (5G) of cellular networks, namely, network-assisted device-to-device (D2D) communications and massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output). Potential benefits of both technologies are known individually, but the tradeoffs resulting from their coexistence have not been adequately addressed. To this end, we assume that D2D users reuse the downlink resources of cellular networks in an underlay fashion. In addition, multiple antennas at the BS are used in order to obtain precoding…
A finite blocklenth analysis of the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff is presented, based on nonasymptotic bounds on the maximum channel coding rate of multiple-antenna block-memoryless Rayleigh-fading channels.The bounds in this paper allow one to numerically assess for which packet size, number of antennas, and degree of channel selectivity, diversity-exploiting schemes are close to optimal, and when instead the available spatial degrees of freedom should be used to provide spatial multiplexing. This finite blocklength view on the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff provides insights on the design…
Motivated by the current interest in ultra-reliable, low-latency, machine-type communication systems, we investigate the tradeoff between reliability, throughput, and latency in the transmission of information over multiple-antenna Rayleigh block-fading channels. Specifically, we obtain finite-blocklength, finite-SNR upper and lower bounds on the maximum coding rate achievable over such channels for a given constraint on the packet error probability. Numerical evidence suggests that our bounds delimit tightly the maximum coding rate already for short blocklengths (packets of about 100 symbols)…
Previous work on cooperative communications has concentrated primarily on the diversity benefits of such techniques. This paper, instead, considers the multiplexing benefits of cooperative communications. First, a new interpretation on the fundamental tradeoff between the transmission rate and outage probability in multi-antenna relay networks is given. It follows that multiplexing gains can be obtained at any finite SNR, in full-duplex multi-antenna relay networks. Thus relaying can offer not only stronger link reliability, but also higher spectral efficiency. Specifically, the decode-and-for…
We consider single-source single-sink (ss-ss) multi-hop networks, with slow-fading links and single-antenna half-duplex relays. We identify two families of networks that are multi-hop generalizations of the well-studied two-hop network: K-Parallel-Path (KPP) networks and layered networks. KPP networks can be viewed as the union of K node-disjoint parallel relaying paths, each of length greater than one. KPP networks are then generalized to KPP(I) networks, which permit interference between paths and to KPP(D) networks, which possess a direct link from source to sink. We characterize the DMT of…
Characterizing the fundamental energy efficiency (EE) limits of MIMO broadcast channels (BC) is significant for the development of green wireless communications. We address the EE optimization problem for MIMO-BC in this paper and consider a practical power model, i.e., taking into account a transmit independent power which is related to the number of active transmit antennas. Under this setup, we propose a new optimization approach, in which the transmit covariance is optimized under fixed active transmit antenna sets, and then active transmit antenna selection (ATAS) is utilized. During the …
The employment of partial zero-forcing (PZF) receivers at the base stations represents an efficient and low-complexity technique for uplink interference management in cellular networks. In this paper, we focus on the performance analysis of ultra-dense networks (UDNs) in which the multi-antenna receivers adopt PZF. We provide both integral expressions and tight closed-form approximations for the probability of successful transmission, which can be used to accurately evaluate the optimal tradeoff between interference cancellation and array gain. Numerical results show that no more than half of …
One way to reduce the power consumption in large-scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems is to employ low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). In this paper, we investigate antenna selection for large-scale MIMO receivers with low-resolution ADCs, thereby providing more flexibility in resolution and number of ADCs. To incorporate quantization effects, we generalize an existing objective function for a greedy capacity-maximization antenna selection approach. The derived objective function offers an opportunity to select an antenna with the best tradeoff between the additi…
This paper designs hybrid analog-digital channel estimation and beamforming techniques for multiuser massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems with limited number of radio frequency (RF) chains. For these systems, first we design novel minimum mean square error (MMSE) hybrid analog-digital channel estimator by considering both perfect and imperfect channel covariance matrix knowledge cases. Then, we utilize the estimated channels to enable beamforming for data transmission. When the channel covariance matrices of all user equipments (UEs) are known perfectly, we show that there is …
Caching is an effective technique to improve user perceived experience for content delivery in wireless networks. Wireless caching differs from traditional web caching in that it can exploit the broadcast nature of wireless medium and hence opportunistically change the network topologies. This paper studies a cache-aided MIMO interference network with 3 transmitters each equipped with M antennas and 3 receivers each with N antennas. With caching at both the transmitter and receiver sides, the network is changed to hybrid forms of MIMO broadcast channel, MIMO X channel, and MIMO multicast chann…
The combination of energy harvesting and large-scale multiple antenna technologies provides a promising solution for improving the energy efficiency (EE) by exploiting renewable energy sources and reducing the transmission power per user and per antenna. However, the introduction of energy harvesting capabilities into large-scale multiple antenna systems poses many new challenges for energy-efficient system design due to the intermittent characteristics of renewable energy sources and limited battery capacity. Furthermore, the total manufacture cost and the sum power of a large number of radio…
Hybrid analog/digital architectures and receivers with low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are two low power solutions for wireless systems with large antenna arrays, such as millimeter wave and massive MIMO systems. Most prior work represents two extreme cases in which either a small number of RF chains with full-resolution ADCs, or low resolution ADC with a number of RF chains equal to the number of antennas is assumed. In this paper, a generalized hybrid architecture with a small number of RF chains and finite number of ADC bits is proposed. For this architecture, achievable …
This paper studies fast downlink beamforming algorithms using deep learning in multiuser multiple-input-single-output systems where each transmit antenna at the base station has its own power constraint. We focus on the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) balancing problem which is quasi-convex but there is no efficient solution available. We first design a fast subgradient algorithm that can achieve near-optimal solution with reduced complexity. We then propose a deep neural network structure to learn the optimal beamforming based on convolutional networks and exploitation of the d…
We study physical-layer security in wireless ad hoc networks and investigate two types of multi-antenna transmission schemes for providing secrecy enhancements. To establish secure transmission against malicious eavesdroppers, we consider the generation of artificial noise with either sectoring or beamforming. For both approaches, we provide a statistical characterization and tradeoff analysis of the outage performance of the legitimate communication and the eavesdropping links. We then investigate the networkwide secrecy throughput performance of both schemes in terms of the secrecy transmiss…
This paper considers a resource allocation problem in device-to-device (D2D) communications sharing the same frequency spectrum. In particular, the CUs utilize non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) while DUs adopt the orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA). A multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP) is formulated, which jointly maximizes the sum rate of D2D and CUs (CUs) in uplink communications while taking into account the maximum transmit power budget and minimum data rate requirement for D2D and CUs. This MOOP is handled by the weighted Tchebycheff method, which converts …
Millimeter-wave MIMO systems have gained increasing traction towards the goal of meeting the high data-rate requirements in next-generation wireless systems. The focus of this work is on low-complexity beamforming approaches for initial UE discovery in such systems. Towards this goal, we first note the structure of the optimal beamformer with per-antenna gain and phase control and the structure of good beamformers with per-antenna phase-only control. Learning these beamforming structures in mmW systems is fraught with considerable complexities such as the need for a non-broadcast system design…
This letter studies a multi-antenna wireless powered communication (WPC) system with co-channel energy and information transfer, where a wireless device (WD), powered up by wireless energy transfer (WET) from an energy transmitter (ET), communicates to an information receiver (IR) over the same frequency band. We maximize the achievable data rate from the WD to the IR by jointly optimizing the energy beamforming at the ET and the information beamforming at the WD, subject to their individual transmit power constraints. We obtain the optimal solution to this problem in closed-form, where the op…
