Energy-Efficient Hybrid Beamforming for Integrated Sensing and Communication Enabled mmWave MIMO Systems

This paper conceives a hybrid beamforming design (HBF) that maximizes the energy efficiency (EE) of an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC)-enabled millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. In the system under consideration, an ISAC base station (BS) with the hybrid MIMO architecture communicates with multiple users and simultaneously detects multiple targets. The proposed scheme seeks to maximize the EE of the system, considering the signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) as the user's quality of service (QoS) and the sensing beampattern gain of the targets as constraints. To solve this non-convex problem, we initially adopt Dinkelbach's method to convert the fractional objective function to subtractive form and subsequently obtain the sub-optimal fully-digital transmit beamformer by leveraging the principle of semi-definite relaxation. Subsequently, we propose a penalty-based manifold optimization scheme in conjunction with an alternating minimization method to determine the baseband (BB) and analog beamformers based on the designed fully-digital transmit beamformer. Finally, simulation results are given to demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed algorithm with respect to the benchmarks.

Pareto Optimal Hybrid Beamforming for Short-Packet Millimeter-Wave Integrated Sensing and Communication

Pareto optimal solutions are conceived for radar beamforming error (RBE) and sum rate maximization in short-packet (SP) millimeter-wave (mmWave) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC). Our ultimate goal is to realize ultra-reliable low-latency communication (uRLLC) and real-time sensing capabilities for 6G applications. The ISAC base station (BS) transmits short packets in the downlink (DL) to serve multiple communication users (CUs) and detect multiple radar targets (RTs). We investigate the performance trade-off between the sensing and communication capabilities by optimizing both the radio frequency (RF) and the baseband (BB) transmit precoder (TPC), together with the block lengths. The optimization problem considers the minimum rate requirements of the CUs, the maximum tolerable radar beamforming error (RBE) for the RTs, the unit modulus (UM) elements of the RF TPC, and the finite transmit power as the constraints for SP transmission. The resultant problem is highly non-convex due to the intractable rate expression of the SP regime coupled with the non-convex rate and UM constraints. To solve this problem, we propose an innovative two-layer bisection search (TLBS) algorithm, wherein the RF and BB TPCs are optimized in the inner layer, followed by the block length in the outer layer. Furthermore, a pair of novel methods, namely a bisection search-based majorizer and minimizer (BMM) as well as exact penalty-based manifold optimization (EPMO) are harnessed for optimizing the RF TPC in the inner layer. Subsequently, the BB TPC and the block length are derived via second-order cone programming (SOCP) and mixed integer programming methods, respectively. Finally, our exhaustive simulation results reveal the effect of system parameters for various settings on the RBE-rate region of the SP mmWave ISAC system and demonstrate a significantly enhanced performance compared to the benchmarks.

Angularly Sparse Channel Estimation in Dual-Wideband Tera-Hertz (THz) Hybrid MIMO Systems Relying on Bayesian Learning

Bayesian learning aided massive antenna array based THz MIMO systems are designed for spatial-wideband and frequency-wideband scenarios, collectively termed as the dual-wideband channels. Essentially, numerous antenna modules of the THz system result in a significant delay in the transmission/ reception of signals in the time-domain across the antennas, which leads to spatial-selectivity. As a further phenomenon, the wide bandwidth of THz communication results in substantial variation of the effective angle of arrival/ departure (AoA/ AoD) with respect to the subcarrier frequency. This is termed as the beam squint effect, which renders the channel state information (CSI) estimation challenging in such systems. To address this problem, initially, a pilot-aided (PA) Bayesian learning (PA-BL) framework is derived for the estimation of the Terahertz (THz) MIMO channel that relies exclusively on the pilot beams transmitted. Since the framework designed can successfully operate in an ill-posed model, it can verifiably lead to reduced pilot transmissions in comparison to conventional methodologies. The above paradigm is subsequently extended to additionally incorporate data symbols to derive a Data-Aided (DA) BL approach that performs joint data detection and CSI estimation. We will demonstrate that it is capable of improving the dual-wideband channels estimate, despite further reducing the training overhead. The Bayesian Cramer-Rao bounds (BCRLBs) are also obtained for explicitly characterizing the lower bounds on the mean squared error (MSE) of the PA-BL and DA-BL frameworks. Our simulation results show the improved normalized MSE (NMSE) and bit-error rate (BER) performance of the proposed estimation schemes and confirm that they approach their respective BCRLB benchmarks.

Asynchronous Distributed Coordinated Hybrid Precoding in Multi-cell mmWave Wireless Networks

Asynchronous distributed hybrid beamformers (ADBF) are conceived for minimizing the total transmit power subject to signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) constraints at the users. Our design requires only limited information exchange between the base stations (BSs) of the mmWave multi-cell coordinated (MCC) networks considered. To begin with, a semidefinite relaxation (SDR)-based fully-digital (FD) beamformer is designed for a centralized MCC system. Subsequently, a Bayesian learning (BL) technique is harnessed for decomposing the FD beamformer into its analog and baseband components and construct a hybrid transmit precoder (TPC). However, the centralized TPC design requires global channel state information (CSI), hence it results in a high signaling overhead. An alternating direction based method of multipliers (ADMM) technique is developed for a synchronous distributed beamformer (SDBF) design, which relies only on limited information exchange among the BSs, thus reducing the signaling overheads required by the centralized TPC design procedure. However, the SDBF design is challenging, since it requires the updates from the BSs to be strictly synchronized. As a remedy, an ADBF framework is developed that mitigates the inter-cell interference (ICI) and also control the asynchrony in the system. Furthermore, the above ADBF framework is also extended to the robust ADBF (R-ADBF) algorithm that incorporates the CSI uncertainty into the design procedure for minimizing the the worst-case transmit power. Our simulation results illustrate both the enhanced performance and the improved convergence properties of the ADMM-based ADBF and R-ADBF schemes.

Hybrid Precoder and Combiner Designs for Decentralized Parameter Estimation in mmWave MIMO Wireless Sensor Networks

Hybrid precoder and combiner designs are conceived for decentralized parameter estimation in millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless sensor networks (WSNs). More explicitly, efficient pre- and post-processing of the sensor observations and received signal are proposed for the minimum mean square error (MMSE) estimation of a parameter vector. The proposed techniques exploit the limited scattering nature of the mmWave MIMO channel for formulating the hybrid transceiver design framework as a multiple measurement vectors (MMV)-based sparse signal recovery problem. This is then solved using the iterative appealingly low-complexity simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit (SOMP). Tailor-made designs are presented for WSNs operating under both total and per-sensor power constraints, while considering ideal noiseless as well as realistic noisy sensors. Furthermore, both the Bayesian Cramer-Rao lower bound and the centralized MMSE bound are derived for benchmarking the proposed decentralized estimation schemes. Our simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of the designs advocated and verify the analytical findings.

Data-Aided CSI Estimation Using Affine-Precoded Superimposed Pilots in Orthogonal Time Frequency Space Modulated MIMO Systems

An orthogonal affine-precoded superimposed pilot-based architecture is developed for the cyclic prefix (CP)-aided SISO and MIMO orthogonal time frequency space systems relying on arbitrary transmitter-receiver pulse shaping. The data and pilot symbol matrices are affine-precoded and superimposed in the delay Doppler-domain followed by the development of an end-to-end DD-domain relationship for the input-output symbols. At the receiver, the decoupled pilot and data symbol are extracted by employing orthogonal precoder matrices, which eliminates the mutual interference. Furthermore, a novel pilot-aided Bayesian learning (PA-BL) technique is conceived for the channel state information (CSI) estimation of SISO OTFS systems based on the expectation-maximization (EM) technique. Subsequently, a data-aided Bayesian learning (DA-BL)-based joint CSI estimation and data detection technique is proposed, which beneficially harnesses the estimated data symbols for improved CSI estimation. In this scenario our sophisticated data detection rule also integrates the CSI uncertainty of channel estimation into our the linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) detectors. The AP-SIP framework is also extended to MIMO OTFS systems, wherein the DD-domain input matrix is affine-precoded for each transmit antenna (TA). Then an EM algorithm-based PA-BL scheme is derived for simultaneous row-group sparse CSI estimation for this system, followed also by our data-aided DA-BL scheme that performs joint CSI estimation and data detection. Moreover, the Bayesian Cramer-Rao bounds (BCRBs) are also derived for both SISO as well as MIMO OTFS systems. Finally, simulation results are presented for characterizing the performance of the proposed CSI estimation techniques in a range of typical settings along with their bit error rate (BER) performance in comparison to an ideal system having perfect CSI.

Robust Hybrid Transceiver Designs for Linear Decentralized Estimation in mmWave MIMO IoT Networks in the Face of Imperfect CSI

Hybrid transceivers are designed for linear decentralized estimation (LDE) in a mmWave multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) IoT network (IoTNe). For a noiseless fusion center (FC), it is demonstrated that the MSE performance is determined by the number of RF chains used at each IoT node (IoTNo). Next, the minimum-MSE RF transmit precoders (TPCs) and receive combiner (RC) matrices are designed for this setup using the dominant array response vectors, and subsequently, a closed-form expression is obtained for the baseband (BB) TPC at each IoTNo using Cauchy's interlacing theorem. For a realistic noisy FC, it is shown that the resultant mean squared error (MSE) minimization problem is non-convex. To address this challenge, a block-coordinate descent-based iterative scheme is proposed to obtain the fully digital TPC and RC matrices followed by the simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit (SOMP) technique for decomposing the fully-digital transceiver into its corresponding RF and BB components. A theoretical proof of the convergence is also presented for the proposed iterative design procedure. Furthermore, robust hybrid transceiver designs are also derived for a practical scenario in the face of channel state information (CSI) uncertainty. The centralized MMSE lower bound has also been derived that benchmarks the performance of the proposed LDE schemes. Finally, our numerical results characterize the performance of the proposed transceivers as well as corroborate our various analytical propositions.

Robust Linear Hybrid Beamforming Designs Relying on Imperfect CSI in mmWave MIMO IoT Networks

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 simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit (SOMP)-based framework for obtaining the analog RF and digital baseband TPCs. Robust hybrid beamformers are also derived for the realistic imperfect channel state information (CSI) scenario, utilizing both the stochastic and norm-ball CSI uncertainty frameworks. The centralized MMSE bound derived in this work serves as a lower bound for the estimation performance of the proposed hybrid TPC designs. Finally, our simulation results quantify the benefits of the various designs developed.

Cooperative Hybrid Transmit Beamforming in Cell-free mmWave MIMO Networks

Hybrid precoders and combiners are designed for cooperative cell-free multi-user millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cellular networks for low complexity interference mitigation. Initially, we derive an optimal hybrid transmit beamformer (HTBF) for a broadcast scenario considering both total and per access point (AP) power constraints. Next, an optimal successive hybrid beamformer technique is proposed for unicast and multicast scenarios which relies on the optimal minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR). We demonstrate that it mitigates both the interuser and intergroup interference, while successively ensuring orthogonality to the previously scheduled users/user groups. Furthermore, it is shown theoretically that the proposed schemes are capable of supporting a large number of users. Subsequently, a Bayesian learning (BL) based method is conceived for jointly designing the RF and baseband precoders/combiners for the various scenarios considered. Furthermore, we also conceive the uplink counterpart of our HTBF scheme, which is based on maximizing the signal-tointerference-plus noise ratio (SINR) of each individual user. Finally, the efficacy of the proposed schemes is characterized by our extensive simulation results in terms of cancelling the interuser/intergroup interference, which improves the spectral efficiency.

Joint Transmit and Reflective Beamformer Design for Secure Estimation in IRS-Aided WSNs

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are vulnerable to eavesdropping as the sensor nodes (SNs) communicate over an open radio channel. Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) technology can be leveraged for physical layer security in WSNs. In this paper, we propose a joint transmit and reflective beamformer (JTRB) design for secure parameter estimation at the fusion center (FC) in the presence of an eavesdropper (ED) in a WSN. We develop a semidefinite relaxation (SDR)-based iterative algorithm, which alternately yields the transmit beamformer at each SN and the corresponding reflection phases at the IRS, to achieve the minimum mean-squared error (MSE) parameter estimate at the FC, subject to transmit power and ED signal-to-noise ratio constraints. Our simulation results demonstrate robust MSE and security performance of the proposed IRS-based JTRB technique.

Hybrid Transceiver Design for Tera-Hertz MIMO Systems Relying on Bayesian Learning Aided Sparse Channel Estimation

Hybrid transceiver design in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) Tera-Hertz (THz) systems relying on sparse channel state information (CSI) estimation techniques is conceived. To begin with, a practical MIMO channel model is developed for the THz band that incorporates its molecular absorption and reflection losses, as well as its non-line-of-sight (NLoS) rays associated with its diffused components. Subsequently, a novel CSI estimation model is derived by exploiting the angular-sparsity of the THz MIMO channel. Then an orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP)-based framework is conceived, followed by designing a sophisticated Bayesian learning (BL)-based approach for efficient estimation of the sparse THz MIMO channel. The Bayesian Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (BCRLB) is also determined for benchmarking the performance of the CSI estimation techniques developed. Finally, an optimal hybrid transmit precoder and receiver combiner pair is designed, which directly relies on the beamspace domain CSI estimates and only requires limited feedback. Finally, simulation results are provided for quantifying the improved mean square error (MSE), spectral-efficiency (SE) and bit-error rate (BER) performance for transmission on practical THz MIMO channel obtained from the HIgh resolution TRANsmission (HITRAN)-database.

Uplink Sum-Rate and Power Scaling Laws for Multi-User Massive MIMO-FBMC Systems

This paper analyses the performance of filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) signaling in conjunction with offset quadrature amplitude modulation (OQAM) in multi-user (MU) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. Initially, closed form expressions are derived for tight lower bounds corresponding to the achievable uplink sum-rates for FBMC-based single-cell MU massive MIMO systems relying on maximum ratio combining (MRC), zero forcing (ZF) and minimum mean square error (MMSE) receiver processing with/without perfect channel state information (CSI) at the base station (BS). This is achieved by exploiting the statistical properties of the intrinsic interference that is characteristic of FBMC systems. Analytical results are also developed for power scaling in the uplink of MU massive MIMO-FBMC systems. The above analysis of the achievable sum-rates and corresponding power scaling laws is subsequently extended to multi-cell scenarios considering both perfect as well as imperfect CSI, and the effect of pilot contamination. The delay-spread-induced performance erosion imposed on the linear processing aided BS receiver is numerically quantified by simulations. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the close match between our analysis and simulations, and to illustrate and compare the performance of FBMC and traditional orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based MU massive MIMO systems.

Sum-Rate Performance of Millimeter Wave MIMO Shared Spectrum Systems

This paper study the effect of interference management arising due to millimeter wave (mmWave) communication on the performance of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) based spectrum sharing cognitive systems. The highly directed mmWave signals have short wavelength property which enables to fabricate an increased number of antennas in a small confined space of the communication system. The large antenna elements are utilized to harvest high beamforming gains and to improve the signal to noise ratio (SNR) by analog processing at the cognitive base station (CBS) and secondary users. Analog processing at the CBS and at secondary user have hardware and computation restrictions. These restrictions are solved by designing radio frequency (RF) precoding and RF combining. In the digital domain, it is shown that interference between secondary users can be canceled by baseband block diagonalization technique. Towards this end, the underlay mode of operation is considered to control interference on the primary user and to derive the expression for optimal power allocation. The derived power allocation is a solution to the rate maximization problem of mmWave MIMO cognitive radio (CR) systems. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to yield various significant insights into for different mmWave CR system conditions and also validate the improvement in performance in comparison to the only digital communication systems.

Impact of Cooperation in Flow-Induced Diffusive Mobile Molecular Communication

Motivated by the numerous healthcare applications of molecular communication (MC) inside blood vessels, this work considers relay/cooperative nanomachine (CN)-assisted mobile MC between a source nanomachine (SN) and a destination nanomachine (DN) where each nanomachine is mobile in a flow-induced diffusive channel. Using the first hitting time model, the impact of an intermediate CN on the performance of the CN-assisted diffusive mobile MC system with fully absorbing receivers is analyzed in the presence of inter-symbol interference, multi-source interference, and counting errors. For this purpose, the likelihood ratio test based optimal symbol detection scheme is obtained at the DN considering the non-ideal nature of CN, i.e., CN can be in error with a finite probability. Further, to characterize the system performance, closed-form expressions for the end-to-end probabilities of detection and false alarm at the DN are derived between the SN-DN pair incorporating the detection performance of the intermediate CN. In addition, the channel capacity expression is also derived for the aforementioned scenario. Simulation results are presented to corroborate the theoretical results derived and also, to yield insights into system performance.

Cognitive MIMO-RF/FSO Cooperative Relay Communication with Mobile Nodes and Imperfect Channel State Information

This work analyzes the performance of an underlay cognitive radio based decode-and-forward mixed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radio frequency/free space optical (RF/FSO) cooperative relay system with multiple mobile secondary and primary user nodes. The effect of imperfect channel state information (CSI) arising due to channel estimation error is also considered at the secondary user transmitters (SU-TXs) and relay on the power control and symbol detection processes respectively. A unique aspect of this work is that both fixed and proportional interference power constraints are employed to limit the interference at the primary user receivers (PU-RXs). Analytical results are derived to characterize the exact and asymptotic outage and bit error probabilities of the above system under practical conditions of node mobility and imperfect CSI, together with impairments of the optical channel, such as path loss, atmospheric turbulence, and pointing errors, for orthogonal space-time block coded transmission between each SU-TX and relay. Finally, simulation results are presented to yield various interesting insights into the system performance such as the benefits of a midamble versus preamble for channel estimation.
