In this letter, a novel linear transmission strategy to design the linear precoding matrix~(PM) at base station~(BS) and the beamforming matrix~(BM) at relay station~(RS) for multiple-input multiple-output~(MIMO) relaying broadcast channels with direct channel (DC) is proposed, in which a linear PM is designed at BS based on DC, and the RS utilizes the PM, the backward channel and the forward channel to design the linear BM. We then give a quite tight lower bound of the achievable sum-rate of the network with the proposed strategy to measure the performance. The sum-rates achieved by the proposed strategy is compared with other schemes without considering the DC in design in simulations, which shows that the proposed strategy outperforms the existing methods when RS is close to BS.
We consider a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relaying boardcast channel in downlink cellular networks, where the base station and the relay stations are both equipped with multiple antennas, and each user terminal has only a single antenna. In practical scenarios, channel estimation is imperfect at the receivers. Aiming at maximizing the SINR at each user, we develop two robust linear beamforming schemes respectively for the single relay case and the multi-relay case. The two proposed schemes are based on sigular value decomposition (SVD), minimum mean square error (MMSE) and regularize…
Cooperative Rate-Splitting (CRS) strategy, relying on linearly precoded rate-splitting at the transmitter and opportunistic transmission of the common message by the relaying user, has recently been shown to outperform typical Non-cooperative Rate-Splitting (NRS), Cooperative Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (C-NOMA) and Space Division Multiple Access (SDMA) in a two-user Multiple Input Single Output (MISO) Broadcast Channel (BC) with user relaying. In this work, the existing two-user CRS transmission strategy is generalized to the K-user case. We study the problem of jointly optimizing the prec…
We investigate a multi-pair two-way decode-andforward relaying aided massive multiple-input multiple-output antenna system under Rician fading channels, in which multiple pairs of users exchange information through a relay station having multiple antennas. Imperfect channel state information is considered in the context of maximum-ratio processing. Closedform expressions are derived for approximating the sum spectral efficiency (SE) of the system. Moreover, we obtain the powerscaling laws at the users and the relay station to satisfy a certain SE requirement in three typical scenarios. Finally…
In this letter, we address the optimal source and relay matrices design for the multiple-input multiple-output~(MIMO) relaying broadcast channels~(BC) with direct links~(DLs) based on weighted sum-rate criterion.This problem is nonlinear nonconvex and its optimal solution remains open. To develop an efficient way to solve this problem,we first set up an equivalent problem, and solve it by decoupling it into two tractable subproblems. Finally, we propose a general linear iterative design algorithm based on alternative optimization. This iterative design algorithm is convergent since the solutio…
We investigate how massive MIMO impacts the uplink transmission design in a heterogeneous network (HetNet) where multiple users communicate with a macro-cell base station (MCBS) with the help of a small-cell BS (SCBS) with zero-forcing (ZF) detection at each BS. We first analyze the quantize-forward (QF) relaying scheme with joint decoding (JD) at the MCBS. To maximize the rate region, we optimize the quantization of all user data streams at the SCBS by developing a novel water-filling algorithm that is based on the Descartes' rule of signs. Our result shows that as a user link to the SCBS bec…
In this paper, we investigate the secure rate-splitting for the two-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) broadcast channel with imperfect channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) and a multiple-antenna jammer, where each receiver has an equal number of antennas and the jammer has perfect channel state information (CSI). Specifically, we design a secure rate-splitting multiple-access strategy, where the security of split private and common messages is ensured by precoder design with joint nulling and aligning the leakage information, regarding different antenna configurations. …
In this paper we study on a massive MIMO relay system with linear precoding under the conditions of imperfect channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) and per-user channel transmit correlation. In our system the source-relay channels are massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) ones and the relay-destination channels are massive multiple-input single-output (MISO) ones. Large random matrix theory (RMT) is used to derive a deterministic equivalent of the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at each user in massive MIMO amplify-forward and decode-forward (M-MIMO-ADF) re…
This work considers the multihop multiple-input multiple-output relay network under short-packet communications to facilitate not only ultra-reliability but also low-latency communications. We assume that the transmit antenna selection (TAS) scheme is utilized at the transmit side, whereas either selection combining (SC) or maximum ratio combining (MRC) is leveraged at the receive side to achieve diversity gains. For quasi-static Rayleigh fading channels and the finite-blocklength regime, we derive the approximate closed-form expressions of the end-to-end (e2e) block error rate (BLER) for both…
In this paper, we consider intelligent omni-surfaces (IOSs), which are capable of simultaneously reflecting and refracting electromagnetic waves. We focus our attention on the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) broadcast channel, and we introduce an algorithm for jointly optimizing the covariance matrix at the base station, the matrix of reflection and transmission coefficients at the IOS, and the amount of power that is reflected and refracted from the IOS. The distinguishable feature of this work lies in taking into account that the reflection and transmission coefficients of an IOS are t…
In this paper, we study the achievable rate region of 1-layer rate splitting (RS) in the presence of hardware impairment (HWI) and improper Gaussian signaling (IGS) for a single-cell reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) assisted broadcast channel (BC). We assume that the transceivers may suffer from an imbalance in in-band and quadrature signals, which is known as I/Q imbalance (IQI). The received signal and noise can be improper when there exists IQI. Therefore, we employ IGS to compensate for IQI as well as to manage interference. Our results show that RS and RIS can significantly enlarg…
In this work, we consider the design of hybrid analog-digital (HAD) multi-carrier MIMO-OFDM two-way relaying systems, where the relay station is equipped with a HAD amplify-and-forward architecture and every mobile station is equipped with a fully-digital beamforming architecture. We propose a sub-optimal solution by reformulating the original non-convex problem as a constrained Tucker2 decomposition with the objective of minimizing the sum Euclidean-norm between the HAD amplification matrices and their fully-digital counterparts. For the fully-digital amplification matrix design, we use a Fro…
In this paper, we study a massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO) relay network where multiple source-destination pairs exchange information through a common relay equipped with a massive antenna array. The source users perform simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) and the power-splitting (PS) scheme is used at the relay to first harvest energy from the received signals, and then, to transmit the decoded signals using the harvested energy. Relay performs maximum ratio combining/maximum ratio transmission (MRC/MRT) beam-forming on the received signal. Under the thr…
Federated learning (FL) is a type of distributed machine learning at the wireless edge that preserves the privacy of clients' data from adversaries and even the central server. Existing federated learning approaches either use (i) secure multiparty computation (SMC) which is vulnerable to inference or (ii) differential privacy which may decrease the test accuracy given a large number of parties with relatively small amounts of data each. To tackle the problem with the existing methods in the literature, In this paper, we introduce incorporate federated learning in the inner-working of MIMO sys…
We consider the vector perturbation (VP) precoder design for multiuser multiple-input single output (MU-MISO) broadcast channel systems which is robust to power scaling factor errors. VP precoding has so far been developed and analyzed under the assumption that receivers could have known the power scaling factor in advance of tranmission perfectly, which is hard to obtain due to the large dynamic range and limited feedforward. However, as demonstrated in our results the performance of VP precoding is quite sensitive to the accuracy of power scaling factor and always encounter an error floor at…
In this paper, outage probability (OP) of a joint transmit and receive antenna selection (JTRAS) scheme is analyzed in multiple-input multiple-output non orthogonal multiple access based downlink energy harvesting (EH) relaying networks. In this dual-hop and amplify-and-forward relaying based network, since the first and second hops are types of single-user and multi-user systems, respectively, the optimal JTRAS and suboptimal majority-based JTRAS schemes are employed in the first and second hops. The theoretical OP analysis is carried out over Nakagami-m fading channels in the cases of perfec…
This paper focuses on the fundamental problem of maximizing the achievable weighted sum rate (WSR) at information receivers (IRs) in an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted simultaneous wireless information and power transfer system under a multiple-input multiple-output (SWIPT-MIMO) setting, subject to a quality-of-service (QoS) constraint at the energy receivers (ERs). Notably, due to the coupling between the transmit precoding matrix and the passive beamforming vector in the QoS constraint, the formulated non-convex optimization problem is challenging to solve. We first decouple th…
