Energy Efficiency of Unsourced Random Access over the Binary-Input Gaussian Channel

We investigate the fundamental limits of the unsourced random access over the binary-input Gaussian channel. By fundamental limits, we mean the minimal energy per bit required to achieve the target per-user probability of error. The original method proposed by Y. Polyanskiy (2017) and based on Gallager's trick does not work well for binary signaling. We utilize Fano's method, which is based on the choice of the so-called ``good'' region. We apply this method for the cases of Gaussian and binary codebooks and obtain two achievability bounds. The first bound is very close to Polyanskiy's bound but does not lead to any improvement. At the same time, the numerical results show that the bound for the binary case practically coincides with the bound for the Gaussian codebook. Thus, we conclude that binary modulation does not lead to performance degradation, and energy-efficient schemes with binary modulation do exist.

Achievability Bounds for T-Fold Irregular Repetition Slotted ALOHA Scheme in the Gaussian MAC

We address the problem of uncoordinated massive random-access in the Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC). The performance of low-complexity T-fold irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) scheme is investigated and achievability bounds are derived. The main difference of this scheme in comparison to IRSA is as follows: any collisions of order up to T can be resolved with some probability of error introduced by noise. In order to optimize the parameters of the scheme we combine the density evolution method (DE) proposed by G. Liva and a finite length random coding bound for the Gaussian MAC proposed by Y. Polyanskiy. As energy efficiency is of critical importance for massive machine-type communication (mMTC), then our main goal is to minimize the energy-per-bit required to achieve the target packet loss ratio (PLR). We consider two scenarios: (a) the number of active users is fixed; (b) the number of active users is a Poisson random variable.

On LDPC Code Based Massive Random-Access Scheme for the Gaussian Multiple Access Channel

This paper deals with the problem of massive random access for Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC). We continue to investigate the coding scheme for Gaussian MAC proposed by A. Vem et al in 2017. The proposed scheme consists of four parts: (i) the data transmission is partitioned into time slots; (ii) the data, transmitted in each slot, is split into two parts, the first one set an interleaver of the low-density parity-check (LDPC) type code and is encoded by spreading sequence or codewords that are designed to be decoded by compressed sensing type decoding; (iii) the another part of transmitted data is encoded by LDPC type code and decoded using a joint message passing decoding algorithm designed for the T-user binary input Gaussian MAC; (iv) users repeat their codeword in multiple slots. In this paper we are concentrated on the third part of considered scheme. We generalized the PEXIT charts to optimize the protograph of LDPC code for Gaussian MAC. The simulation results, obtained at the end of the paper, were analyzed and compared with obtained theoretical bounds and thresholds. Obtained simulation results shows that proposed LDPC code constructions have better performance under joint decoding algorithm over Gaussian MAC than LDPC codes considered by A. Vem et al in 2017, that leads to the better performance of overall transmission system.
