We study the performance of a phase-noise impaired double reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided multiuser (MU) multiple-input single-output (MISO) system under spatial correlation at both RISs and base-station (BS). The downlink achievable rate is derived in closed-form under maximum ratio transmission (MRT) precoding. In addition, we obtain the optimal phase-shift design at both RISs in closed-form for the considered channel and phase-noise models. Numerical results validate the analytical expressions, and highlight the effects of different system parameters on the achievable rate. Our analysis shows that phase-noise can severely degrade the performance when users do not have direct links to both RISs, and can only be served via the double-reflection link. Also, we show that high spatial correlation at RISs is essential for high achievable rates.
A required feature for the next generation of wireless communication networks will be the capability to serve simultaneously a large number of devices with heterogeneous CSIT qualities and demands. In this paper, we consider the overloaded MISO BC with two groups of CSIT qualities. We propose a transmission scheme where degraded symbols are superimposed on top of spatially-multiplexed symbols. The developed strategy allows to serve all users in a non-orthogonal manner and the analysis shows an enhanced perfomance compared to existing schemes. Moreover, optimality in a DoF sense is shown.
We analyze a MISO downlink channel where a multi-antenna transmitter communicates with a large number of single-antenna receivers. Using linear beamforming or nonlinear precoding techniques, the transmitter can serve multiple users simultaneously during each transmission slot. However, increasing the number of users, i.e., the multiplexing gain, reduces the beamforming gain, which means that the average of the individual data rates decreases and their variance increases. We use stochastic network calculus to analyze the queueing delay that occurs due to the time-varying data rates. Our results…
In this paper, we study resource allocation design for secure communication in intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) communication systems. To enhance physical layer security, artificial noise (AN) is transmitted from the base station (BS) to deliberately impair the channel of an eavesdropper. In particular, we jointly optimize the phase shift matrix at the IRS and the beamforming vectors and AN covariance matrix at the BS for maximization of the system sum secrecy rate. To handle the resulting non-convex optimization problem, we develop an…
In this paper, we consider linear precoding with SINR constraints for the downlink of a multiuser MISO (multiple-input single-output) communication system in the presence of imperfect channel state information (CSI). The base station is equipped with multiple transmit antennas and each user terminal is equipped with a single receive antenna. We propose a robust design of linear precoder which transmits minimum power to provide the required SINR at the user terminals when the true channel state lies in a region of a given size around the channel state available at the transmitter. We show that …
For multiuser MISO systems with bounded uncertainties in the Channel State Information (CSI), we consider two classical robust design problems: maximizing the minimum rate subject to a transmit power constraint, and power minimization under a rate constraint. Contrary to conventional strategies, we propose a Rate-Splitting (RS) strategy where each message is divided into two parts, a common part and a private part. All common parts are packed into one super common message encoded using a shared codebook and decoded by all users, while private parts are independently encoded and retrieved by th…
This paper considers the problem of constant envelope (CE) precoder designs for multiuser massive MISO downlink channels. The use of CE signals allows one to employ low-cost radio frequency chains and thereby facilitates the implementation of massive MIMO. However, the subsequent CE precoder designs are usually challenging owing to the non-convex CE constraints. The existing CE precoder designs consider minimization of some measures on the distortion levels of the received symbols, and they usually aim at improving the symbol-error rate (SER) performances. In this paper we formulate a minimum …
This paper considers weighted sum rate maximization of multiuser multiple-input single-output interference channel (MISO-IFC) under outage constraints. The outage-constrained weighted sum rate maximization problem is a nonconvex optimization problem and is difficult to solve. While it is possible to optimally deal with this problem in an exhaustive search manner by finding all the Pareto-optimal rate tuples in the (discretized) outage-constrained achievable rate region, this approach, however, suffers from a prohibitive computational complexity and is feasible only when the number of transmitt…
This paper investigates the idea of exploiting interference among the simultaneous multiuser transmissions in the downlink of multiple antennas systems. Using symbol level precoding, a new approach towards addressing the multiuser interference is discussed through jointly utilizing the channel state information (CSI) and data information (DI). In this direction, the interference among the data streams is transformed under certain conditions to useful signal that can improve the signal to interference noise ratio (SINR) of the downlink transmissions. In this context, new constructive interferen…
We use stochastic network calculus to investigate the delay performance of a multiuser MISO system with zero-forcing beamforming. First, we consider ideal assumptions with long codewords and perfect CSI at the transmitter, where we observe a strong channel hardening effect that results in very high reliability with respect to the maximum delay of the application. We then study the system under more realistic assumptions with imperfect CSI and finite blocklength channel coding. These effects lead to interference and to transmission errors, and we derive closed-form lower and upper bounds on the…
In this paper, we present a space-time-frequency joint block coding (STFBC) scheme to exploit the essential space-time-frequency degrees of freedom of multiuser MISO-MC-CDMA systems. Specifically, we use a series of orthogonal random codes to spread the space time code over several sub-carriers to obtain multi-diversity gains, while multiuser parallel transmission is applied over the same sub-carriers by making use of multiple orthogonal code channels. Furthermore, to improve the system performance, we put forward to linear precoding to the predetermined orthogonal STFBC, including transmittin…
In this paper, we consider the design of robust linear precoders for MU-MISO systems where users have perfect Channel State Information (CSI) while the BS has partial CSI. In particular, the BS has access to imperfect estimates of the channel vectors, in addition to the covariance matrices of the estimation error vectors. A closed-form expression for the Average Minimum Mean Square Error (AMMSE) is obtained using the second order Taylor Expansion. This approximation is used to formulate two fairness-based robust design problems: a maximum AMMSE-constrained problem and a power-constrained probl…
In this letter, we present an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) selection strategy for multiple IRSs aided multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) systems. In particular, we pose the IRS selection problem as a stable matching problem. A two stage user-IRS assignment algorithm is proposed, where the main objective is to carry out a stable user-IRS matching, such that the sum rate of the system is improved. The first stage of the proposed algorithm employs a well-known Gale Shapley matching designed for the stable marriage problem. However, due to interference in multiuser systems, the …
We consider power allocations in downlink cellular wireless systems where the basestations are equipped with multiple transmit antennas and the mobile users are equipped with single receive antennas. Such systems can be modeled as multiuser MISO systems. We assume that the multi-antenna transmitters employ some fixed beamformers to transmit data, and the objective is to optimize the power allocation for different users to satisfy certain QoS constraints, with imperfect transmitter-side channel state information (CSI). Specifically, for MISO interference channels, we consider the transmit power…
The transmitter optimization (i.e., steering vectors and power allocation) for a MISO Broadcast Channel (MISO-BC) subject to general linear constraints is considered. Such constraints include, as special cases, the sum power, the per-antenna or per-group-of-antennas power, and "forbidden interference direction" constraints. We consider both the optimal dirty-paper coding and the simple suboptimal linear zero-forcing beamforming strategies, and provide numerically efficient algorithms that solve the problem in its most general form. As an application, we consider a multi-cell scenario with part…
Symbol-level precoding is a new paradigm for multiuser downlink systems which aims at creating constructive interference among the transmitted data streams. This can be enabled by designing the precoded signal of the multiantenna transmitter on a symbol level, taking into account both channel state information and data symbols. Previous literature has studied this paradigm for MPSK modulations by addressing various performance metrics, such as power minimization and maximization of the minimum rate. In this paper, we extend this to generic multi-level modulations i.e. MQAM and APSK by establis…
This paper studies robust resource allocation algorithm design for a multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) cognitive radio (CR) downlink communication network. We focus on a secondary system which provides unicast secure wireless layered video information to multiple single-antenna secondary receivers. The resource allocation algorithm design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem for minimization of the total transmit power at the secondary transmitter. The proposed framework takes into account a quality of service (QoS) requirement regarding video communication secrecy in…
This paper investigates the problem of interference among the simultaneous multiuser transmissions in the downlink of multiple antennas systems. Using symbol level precoding, a new approach towards the multiuser interference is discussed along this paper. The concept of exploiting the interference between the spatial multiuser transmissions by jointly utilizing the data information (DI) and channel state information (CSI), in order to design symbol-level precoders, is proposed. In this direction, the interference among the data streams is transformed under certain conditions to useful signal t…
This work considers worst-case utility maximization (WCUM) problem for a downlink wireless system where a multiantenna base station communicates with multiple single-antenna users. Specifically, we jointly design transmit covariance matrices for each user to robustly maximize the worst-case (i.e., minimum) system utility function under channel estimation errors bounded within a spherical region. This problem has been shown to be NP-hard, and so any algorithms for finding the optimal solution may suffer from prohibitively high complexity. In view of this, we seek an efficient and more accurate …
In this paper, we consider a multiuser MISO downlink cognitive network coexisting with a primary network. With the purpose of exploiting the spatial degree of freedom to counteract the inter-network interference and intra-network (inter-user) interference simultaneously, we propose to perform zero-forcing beamforming (ZFBF) at the multi-antenna cognitive base station (BS) based on the instantaneous channel state information (CSI). The challenge of designing ZFBF in cognitive networks lies in how to obtain the interference CSI. To solve it, we introduce a limited inter-network cooperation proto…
In this paper, we address the symbol level precoding (SLP) design problem under max-min SINR criterion in the downlink of multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) channels. First, we show that the distance preserving constructive interference regions (DPCIR) are always polyhedral angles (shifted pointed cones) for any given constellation point with unbounded decision region. Then we prove that any signal in a given unbounded DPCIR has a norm larger than the norm of the corresponding vertex if and only if the convex hull of the constellation contains the origin. Using these properties, we …
We consider a multiuser system where a single transmitter equipped with multiple antennas (the base station) communicates with multiple users each with a single antenna. Regularized channel inversion is employed as the precoding strategy at the base station. Within this scenario we are interested in the problems of power allocation and user admission control so as to maximize the system throughput, i.e., which users should we communicate with and what power should we use for each of the admitted users so as to get the highest sum rate. This is in general a very difficult problem but we do two …
This paper considers a discrete-time multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) Gaussian broadcast channel~(BC), in which channel state information (CSI) is available at both the transmitter and the receivers. The flexible and explicit design of a uniquely decomposable constellation group (UDCG) is provided based on pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) and rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) constellations. With this, a modulation division (MD) transmission scheme is developed for the MISO BC. The proposed MD scheme enables each receiver to uniquely and efficiently detect their de…
This paper considers the Sum-Rate (SR) maximization problem in downlink MU-MISO systems under imperfect Channel State Information at the Transmitter (CSIT). Contrary to existing works, we consider a rather unorthodox transmission scheme. In particular, the message intended to one of the users is split into two parts: a common part which can be recovered by all users, and a private part recovered by the corresponding user. On the other hand, the rest of users receive their information through private messages. This Rate-Splitting (RS) approach was shown to boost the achievable Degrees of Freedo…
Intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) are regarded as key enablers of next-generation wireless communications, due to their capability of customizing the wireless propagation environment. In this paper, we investigate power-efficient resource allocation for IRS-assisted multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) systems. To minimize the transmit power, both the beamforming vectors at the access point (AP) and phase shifts at the IRS are jointly optimized while taking into account the minimum required quality-of-service (QoS) of the users. To tackle the non-convexity of the formulated optim…

In this context, ne…
In this paper, a joint spectrum sensing and accessing optimization framework for a multiuser cognitive network is proposed to significantly improve spectrum efficiency. For such a cognitive network, there are two important and limited resources that should be distributed in a comprehensive manner, namely feedback bits and time duration. First, regarding the feedback bits, there are two components: sensing component (used to convey various users' sensing results) and accessing component (used to feedback channel state information). A large sensing component can support more users to perform coo…
In this paper, we study the transmission design for reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided multiuser communication networks. Different from most of the existing contributions, we consider long-term CSI-based transmission design, where both the beamforming vectors at the base station (BS) and the phase shifts at the RIS are designed based on long-term CSI, which can significantly reduce the channel estimation overhead. Due to the lack of explicit ergodic data rate expression, we propose a novel deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) based algorithm to solve the optimization problem, …
We consider a downlink multiuser MISO system with bounded errors in the Channel State Information at the Transmitter (CSIT). We first look at the robust design problem of achieving max-min fairness amongst users (in the worst-case sense). Contrary to the conventional approach adopted in literature, we propose a rather unorthodox design based on a Rate-Splitting (RS) strategy. Each user's message is split into two parts, a common part and a private part. All common parts are packed into one super common message encoded using a public codebook, while private parts are independently encoded. The …
In this paper, we investigate a multiuser relay system with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer. Assuming that both base station (BS) and relay station (RS) are equipped with multiple antennas, this work studies the joint transceiver design problem for the BS beamforming vectors, the RS amplify-and-forward transformation matrix and the power splitting (PS) ratios at the single-antenna receivers. Firstly, an iterative algorithm based on alternating optimization (AO) and with guaranteed convergence is proposed to successively optimize the transceiver coefficients. Secondly, a no…
It is well-known that the traditional transmit beamforming at a base station (BS) to manage interference in serving multiple users is effective only when the number of users is less than the number of transmit antennas at the BS. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) can improve the throughput of users with poorer channel conditions by compromising their own privacy because other users with better channel conditions can decode the information of users in poorer channel state. NOMA still prefers that the number of users is less than the number of antennas at the BS transmitter. This paper resol…
This paper investigates multiuser multi-input single-output (MISO) downlink communications assisted by a self-sustainable intelligent reflection surface (IRS), which can harvest power from the received signals. We study the joint design of the beamformer at an access point (AP) and the phase shifts and the power harvesting schedule at an IRS for maximizing the system sum-rate. The design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem taking into account the capability of IRS elements to harvest wireless power for realizing self-sustainability. Subsequently, we propose a computationally-eff…
We consider the Multiple Input Single Output (MISO) Gaussian Broadcast channel with $N_t$ antennas at the base station (BS) and $N_u$ single-antenna users in the downlink. We propose a novel user grouping precoder which improves the sum rate performance of the Zero-Forcing (ZF) precoder specially when the channel is ill-conditioned. The proposed precoder partitions all the users into small groups of equal size. Downlink beamforming is then done in such a way that, at each user's receiver the interference from the signal intended for users not in its group is nulled out. Intra-group interferenc…
In this paper we consider a probabilistic signal-to-interference and-noise ratio (SINR) constrained problem for transmit beamforming design in the presence of imperfect channel state information (CSI), under a multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) downlink scenario. In particular, we deal with outage-based quality-of-service constraints, where the probability of each user's SINR not satisfying a service requirement must not fall below a given outage probability specification. The study of solution approaches to the probabilistic SINR constrained problem is important because CSI errors …
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-based communication networks promise to improve channel capacity and energy efficiency. However, the promised capacity gains could be negligible for passive RISs because of the double pathloss effect. Active RISs can overcome this issue because they have reflector elements with a low-cost amplifier. This letter studies the active RIS-aided simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in a multiuser system. The users exploit power splitting (PS) to decode information and harvest energy simultaneously based on a realistic piecewise nonline…
In multiuser communication systems, user scheduling and beamforming (US-BF) design are two fundamental problems that are usually studied separately in the existing literature. In this work, we focus on the joint US-BF design with the goal of maximizing the set cardinality of scheduled users, which is computationally challenging due to the non-convex objective function and the coupled constraints with discrete-continuous variables. To tackle these difficulties, a successive convex approximation based US-BF (SCA-USBF) optimization algorithm is firstly proposed. Then, inspired by wireless intelli…
The intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a planar array with massive reconfigurable passive elements, which can align the reflecting signals at the receivers via controlling the phase shifts at each element independently. Since IRS can be implemented without RF chain, it is seen as a cost-effective solution for boosting the spectral efficiency for the future communication system. This work considers the IRS-aided multiuser multi-input single-output downlink transmission, and our goal is to maximize the sum rate by jointly optimizing the transmit beamformer at the base station and the phase …
We consider a broadcast channel, in which a multi-antenna transmitter (Alice) sends $K$ confidential information signals to $K$ legitimate users (Bobs) in the presence of $L$ eavesdroppers (Eves). Alice uses MIMO precoding to generate the information signals along with her own (Tx-based) friendly jamming. Interference at each Bob is removed by MIMO zero-forcing. This, however, leaves a "vulnerability region" around each Bob, which can be exploited by a nearby Eve. We address this problem by augmenting Tx-based friendly jamming (TxFJ) with Rx-based friendly jamming (RxFJ), generated by each Bob…
This paper studies an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) system. In this system, a multi-antenna access point (AP) uses transmit beamforming to send both information and energy signals to a set of receivers each for information decoding (ID) or energy harvesting (EH), and a dedicatedly deployed IRS properly controls its reflecting phase shifts to form passive reflection beams for facilitating both ID and EH at receivers. Under this setup, we jointly optimize the (active) inform…
Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) is anticipated to have abundant applications in future machine or sensor based wireless networks by providing wireless data and energy access at the same time. In this paper, we study a multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) broadcast SWIPT system, where a multi-antenna access point (AP) sends information and energy simultaneously via spatial multiplexing to multiple single-antenna receivers each of which implements information decoding (ID) or energy harvesting (EH). Since EH receivers in practice operate with considerably hi…

The design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem taking into account the wireless energy harvesting capability of IRS elements, secure communications, a…
Consider the following problem: A multi-antenna base station (BS) sends multiple symbol streams to multiple single-antenna users via precoding. However, unlike conventional multiuser precoding, the transmitted signals are subjected to binary, unit-modulus, or even discrete unit-modulus constraints. Such constraints arise in the one-bit and constant-envelope (CE) massive MIMO scenarios, wherein high-resolution digital-to-analog converters (DACs) are replaced by one-bit DACs and phase shifters, respectively, for cutting down hardware cost and energy consumption. Multiuser precoding under one-bit…
This paper studies the coordinated beamforming design problem for the multiple-input single-output (MISO) interference channel, assuming only channel distribution information (CDI) at the transmitters. Under a given requirement on the rate outage probability for receivers, we aim to maximize the system utility (e.g., the weighted sum rate, weighted geometric mean rate, and the weighed harmonic mean rate) subject to the rate outage constraints and individual power constraints. The outage constraints, however, lead to a complicated, nonconvex structure for the considered beamforming design probl…
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) have drawn considerable attention recently due to their controllable scattering elements that are able to direct electromagnetic waves into desirable directions. Although RISs share some similarities with relays, the two have fundamental differences impacting their performance. To harness the benefits of both relaying and RISs, a multi-user communication system is proposed in this paper wherein a relay and an RIS cooperate to improve performance in terms of energy efficiency. Using singular value decomposition (SVD), semidefinite programming (SDP), and…
In this paper, we investigate robust resource allocation algorithm design for multiuser downlink multiple-input single-output (MISO) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communication systems, where we account for the various uncertainties that are unavoidable in such systems and, if left unattended, may severely degrade system performance. We jointly optimize the two-dimensional (2-D) trajectory and the transmit beamforming vector of the UAV for minimization of the total power consumption. The algorithm design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem taking into account the imperfect knowl…
This paper tackles the problem of the simultaneous interference among the multiple users in the downlink of a wireless multiantenna system. In order to exploit the multiuser interference and transform it into useful power at the receiver side, symbol-level precoding is utilized through joint exploitation of the data from each individual user and the channel state information. This paper introduces a complexity reduction scheme that exploits the constellations symmetry to reduce the number of possible calculations and the number of constraints in the symbol-level optimization problem. This pape…
This paper concentrates on a robust transmit optimization problem for the multiuser multi-input single-output (MISO) downlink scenario and under inaccurate channel state information (CSI). This robust problem deals with a general-rank transmit covariance design, and it follows a safe rate-constrained formulation under spherically bounded CSI uncertainties. Curiously, simulation results in previous works suggested that the robust problem admits rank-one optimal transmit covariances in most cases. Such a numerical finding is appealing because transmission with rank-one covariances can be easily …
Beamforming is an effective means to improve the quality of the received signals in multiuser multiple-input-single-output (MISO) systems. Traditionally, finding the optimal beamforming solution relies on iterative algorithms, which introduces high computational delay and is thus not suitable for real-time implementation. In this paper, we propose a deep learning framework for the optimization of downlink beamforming. In particular, the solution is obtained based on convolutional neural networks and exploitation of expert knowledge, such as the uplink-downlink duality and the known structure o…

Additionally, we analyze the distortions introduced by low-resolution quantization to PSK for higher energy efficiency reasons. We present three solution algorithms and examine their performance to decide for the best pick for different quantization resolutions. Ou…

Employed as reflecting arrays, RIS is able to assist MIMO transmissions without the need of radio frequency chains resulting in considerable reduction in power consumption. In this paper, we investigate the joint desi…
This paper proposes a secure users oriented multiple-input and single-output (MISO) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) downlink transmission scheme, where multiple legitimate users are categorized as quality of service (QoS)-required users (QU) and the security-required users (SU) overheard by a passive eavesdropper. The basic idea is to exploit zero-forcing beamforming (ZFBF) to cancel interference among SUs, and then several QUs are efficiently scheduled based on the obtained beamforming vectors to divide the legitimate users into several user clusters, in such a way that the QUs could sh…
