In this paper, intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is introduced to enhance the network performance of cognitive radio (CR) systems. Specifically, we investigate robust beamforming design based on both bounded channel state information (CSI) error model and statistical CSI error model for primary user (PU)-related channels in IRS-aided CR systems. We jointly optimize the transmit precoding (TPC) at the secondary user (SU) transmitter (ST) and phase shifts at the IRS to minimize the ST' s total transmit power subject to the quality of service of SUs, the limited interference imposed on the PU and unit-modulus of the reflective beamforming. The successive convex approximation (SCA) method, Schur's complement, General sign-definiteness principle, inverse Chi-square distribution and penalty convex-concave procedure are invoked for dealing with these intricate constraints. The non-convex optimization problems are transformed into several convex subproblems and efficient algorithms are proposed. Simulation results verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithms and reveal the impacts of CSI uncertainties on ST's minimum transmit power and feasibility rate of the optimization problems. Simulation results also show that the number of transmit antennas at the ST and the number of phase shifts at the IRS should be carefully chosen to balance the channel realization feasibility rate and the total transmit power.
Imperfect channel state information (CSI) at the receiver, which is due to channel estimation error, is one of the main problems toward achieving optimum detection. This paper presents a deep learning based structure for combating this issue. In order to show the effect of using deep learning, the symbol error rate of a simple free space optical (FSO) communication system is simulated over correlated and un-correlated log-normal channel with write/ wrong CSI. Novelties and contributions of this paper, which are done for the first in machine learning for FSO communication include considering de…
In this paper, we consider a dual-hop Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless multi-relay network, in which a source-destination pair both equipped with multiple antennas communicates through multiple half-duplex amplify-and-forward (AF) relay terminals which are also with multiple antennas. Since perfect channel state information (CSI) is difficult to obtain in practical multi-relay network, we consider imperfect CSI for all channels. We focus on maximizing the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the destination. We propose a novel robust linear beamforming at the relays,…
Intelligent reflection surface (IRS) has recently been recognized as a promising technique to enhance the performance of wireless systems due to its ability of reconfiguring the signal propagation environment. However, the perfect channel state information (CSI) is challenging to obtain at the base station (BS) due to the lack of radio frequency (RF) chains at the IRS. Since most of the existing channel estimation methods were developed to acquire the cascaded BS-IRS-user channels, this paper is the first work to study the robust beamforming based on the imperfect cascaded BS-IRS-user channels…
With the advent of 5G and the need for energy-efficient massively connected wireless networks, in this work, we consider an energy harvesting (EH) based multi-relay downlink cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system with practical constraints. The base station serves NOMA users with the help of decode-and-forward based multiple EH relays, where relays harvest the energy from the base station's radio frequency. A relay is selected from the multiple K-relay by using a partial relay selection protocol. The system is considered to operate in half-duplex mode over a generalized indep…
Due to the interdependency of frame synchronization (FS) and channel estimation (CE), joint FS and CE (JFSCE) schemes are proposed to enhance their functionalities and therefore boost the overall performance of wireless communication systems. Although traditional JFSCE schemes alleviate the influence between FS and CE, they show deficiencies in dealing with hardware imperfection (HI) and deterministic line-of-sight (LOS) path. To tackle this challenge, we proposed a cascaded ELM-based JFSCE to alleviate the influence of HI in the scenario of the Rician fading channel. Specifically, the convent…
Recently, channel state information (CSI) at the physical-layer has been utilized to detect spoofing attacks in wireless communications. However, due to hardware impairments and communication noise, the CSI cannot be estimated accurately, which significantly degrades the attack detection performance. Besides, the reliability of CSI based detection schemes is challenged by time-varying scenarios. To address these issues, we propose an adaptive Kalman based detection scheme. By utilizing the knowledge of the predicted channel we eliminate the channel estimation error, especially the random phase…
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) is a modern vehicular technology that improves conventional vehicle systems in traffic and communications. V2X communications demand energyefficient and high-reliability networking because of massive vehicular connections and high mobility wireless channels. Nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a promising solution for 5G V2X services that intend to guarantee high reliability, quality-of-service (QoS) provisioning, and massive connectivity requirements. In V2X, it is vital to inspect imperfect CSI because the high mobility of vehicles leads to more channel estima…
This work considers the precoding problem in massive multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) systems equipped with low-resolution digital-to-analog converters (DACs). In previous literature on this topic, it is commonly assumed that the channel state information (CSI) is perfectly known. However, in practical applications the CSI is inevitably contaminated by noise. In this paper, we propose, for the first time, an eigen-inference (EI) precoding scheme to improve the error performance of the coarsely quantized massive MU-MIMO systems under imperfect CSI, which is mathematically mode…
With the help of a power-domain non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme, satellite networks can simultaneously serve multiple users within limited time/spectrum resource block. However, the existence of channel estimation errors inevitably degrade the judgment on users' channel state information (CSI) accuracy, thus affecting the user pairing processing and suppressing the superiority of the NOMA scheme. Inspired by the advantages of machine learning (ML) algorithms, we propose an improved support vector machine (SVM) scheme to reduce the inappropriate user pairing risks and enhance the p…

First, when users have sufficient transmit powers, we present a new sufficient condition guaranteeing arbitrary information rate constraints. This result strengthens the feasibility condition in existing literature. Then, we design novel penalty dual decomposition (PDD) based and nonlinear e…

Linear hybrid beamformer designs are conceived for the decentralized estimation of a vector parameter in a millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Internet of Things network (IoTNe). The proposed designs incorporate both total IoTNe and individual IoTNo power constraints, while also eliminating the need for a baseband receiver combiner at the fusion center (FC). To circumvent the non-convexity of the hybrid beamformer design problem, the proposed approach initially determines the minimum mean square error (MMSE) digital transmit precoder (TPC) weights followed by a simul…

In particular, a multi-antenna access point (AP) communicates with a single-antenna legitimate receiver in the presence of multiple single-antenna eavesdroppers, where the artificial noise (AN) is transmitted to enhance the security performance. Besides, we assume that the cascaded AP-IRS-user channels are imperfect due to the channel estimation error. To minimize the transmit power, the beamforming vector at the transmitter, the AN covariance…

We investigate the user-to-cell association (or user-clustering) and beamforming design for Cloud Radio Access Networks (CRANs) and Fog Radio Access Networks (FogRANs) for 5G. CRAN enables cloud centralized resource and power allocation optimization over all the small cells served by multiple Access Points (APs). However, the fronthaul links connecting each AP to the cloud introduce delays and cause outdated Channel State Information (CSI). By contrast, FogRAN enables lower latencies and better CSI qualities, at the cost of local optimization. To alleviate these issues, we propose a hybrid alg…

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. …

Considering the typical sparsity of mmWave channels, we formulate the cascaded channel estimation problem from a sparse signal recovery perspective, and then propose a novel two-step cascaded channel estimation protocol to estimate the cascaded user-IRS-base station channel with high-resolution for IRS-assisted mmWave MIMO c…
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are developing rapidly owing to flexible deployment and access services as air base stations. However, the channel errors of low-altitude communication links formed by mobile deployment of UAVs cannot be ignored. And the energy efficiency of the UAVs communication with imperfect channel state information (CSI) hasnt been well studied yet. Therefore, we focus on system performance optimization in non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) UAV network considering imperfect CSI between the UAV and users. A suboptimal resource allocation scheme including user scheduling …
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) or intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has recently been envisioned as one of the most promising technologies in the future sixth-generation (6G) communications. In this paper, we consider the joint optimization of the transmit beamforming at the base station (BS) and the phase shifts at the RIS for an RIS-aided wireless communication system with both hardware impairments and imperfect channel state information (CSI). Specifically, we assume both the BS-user channel and the BS-RIS-user channel are imperfect due to the channel estimation error, and we c…
Rate-Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA) for multi-user downlink operates by splitting the message for each user equipment (UE) into a private message and a set of common messages, which are simultaneously transmitted by means of superposition coding. The RSMA scheme can enhance throughput and connectivity as compared to conventional multiple access techniques by optimizing the rate-splitting ratios along with the corresponding downlink beamforming vectors. This work examines the impact of erroneous channel state information (CSI) on the performance of RSMA in cell-free multiple-input multiple-ou…
This paper analyzes the bit error rate (BER) of multicarrier index keying - orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MCIK-OFDM) with selection combining (SC) diversity reception. Particularly, we propose a generalized framework to derive the BER for both the low-complexity greedy detector (GD) and maximum likelihood (ML) detector. Based on this, closedform expressions for the BERs of MCIK-OFDM with the SC using either the ML or the GD are derived in presence of the channel state information (CSI) imperfection. The asymptotic analysis is presented to gain helpful insights into effects of dif…
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 hybrid satellite-terrestrial networks (HSTNs), spectrum sharing is crucial to alleviate the "spectrum scarcity" problem. Therein, the transmit beams should be carefully designed to mitigate the inter-satellite-terrestrial interference. Different from previous studies, this work considers the impact of both nonlinear power amplifier (PA) and large-scale channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) on beamforming. These phenomena are usually inevitable in a practical HSTN. Based on the Saleh model of PA nonlinearity and the large-scale multi-beam satellite channel parameters, we formul…
In this paper, we consider a dual-hop Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless relay network in the presence of imperfect channel state information (CSI), in which a source-destination pair both equipped with multiple antennas communicates through a large number of half-duplex amplify-and-forward (AF) relay terminals. We investigate the performance of three linear beamforming schemes when the CSI of relay-to-destination (R-D) link is not perfect at the relay nodes. The three efficient linear beamforming schemes are based on the matched-filter (MF), zero-forcing (ZF) precoding and regular…
Orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) scheme, which transforms a time and frequency selective channel into an almost non-selective channel in the delay-Doppler domain, establishes reliable wireless communication for high-speed moving devices. This work designs and analyzes low-complexity zero-forcing (LZ) and minimum mean square error (LM) receivers for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO)-OTFS systems with perfect and imperfect receive channel state information (CSI). The proposed receivers provide exactly the same solution as that of the conventional counterparts, and reduce the complexity…
