A Real-World Radio Frequency Signal Dataset Based on LTE System and Variable Channels

Radio Frequency Fingerprint (RFF) identification on account of deep learning has the potential to enhance the security performance of wireless networks. Recently, several RFF datasets were proposed to satisfy requirements of large-scale datasets. However, most of these datasets are collected from 2.4G WiFi devices and through similar channel environments. Meanwhile, they only provided receiving data collected by the specific equipment. This paper utilizes software radio peripheral as a dataset generating platform. Therefore, the user can customize the parameters of the dataset, such as frequency band, modulation mode, antenna gain, and so on. In addition, the proposed dataset is generated through various and complex channel environments, which aims to better characterize the radio frequency signals in the real world. We collect the dataset at transmitters and receivers to simulate a real-world RFF dataset based on the long-term evolution (LTE). Furthermore, we verify the dataset and confirm its reliability. The dataset and reproducible code of this paper can be downloaded from GitHub link: https://github.com/njuptzsp/XSRPdataset.

A Novel Channel Identification Architecture for mmWave Systems Based on Eigen Features

Millimeter wave (mmWave) communication technique has been developed rapidly because of many advantages of high speed, large bandwidth, and ultra-low delay. However, mmWave communications systems suffer from fast fading and frequent blocking. Hence, the ideal communication environment for mmWave is line of sight (LOS) channel. To improve the efficiency and capacity of mmWave system, and to better build the Internet of Everything (IoE) service network, this paper focuses on the channel identification technique in line-of- sight (LOS) and non-LOS (NLOS) environments. Considering the limited computing ability of user equipments (UEs), this paper proposes a novel channel identification architecture based on eigen features, i.e. eigenmatrix and eigenvector (EMEV) of channel state information (CSI). Furthermore, this paper explores clustered delay line (CDL) channel identification with mmWave, which is defined by the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP). Ther experimental results show that the EMEV based scheme can achieve identification accuracy of 99.88% assuming perfect CSI. In the robustness test, the maximum noise can be tolerated is SNR= 16 dB, with the threshold acc \geq 95%. What is more, the novel architecture based on EMEV feature will reduce the comprehensive overhead by about 90%.

SWAN: Swarm-Based Low-Complexity Scheme for PAPR Reduction

Cyclically shifted partial transmit sequences (CS-PTS) has conventionally been used in SISO systems for PAPR reduction of OFDM signals. Compared to other techniques, CS-PTS attains superior performance. Nevertheless, due to the exhaustive search requirement, it demands excessive computational complexity. In this paper, we adapt CS-PTS to operate in a MIMO framework, where singular value decomposition (SVD) precoding is employed. We also propose SWAN, a novel optimization method based on swarm intelligence to circumvent the exhaustive search. SWAN not only provides a significant reduction in computational complexity, but it also attains a fair balance between optimality and complexity. Through simulations, we show that SWAN achieves near-optimal performance at a much lower complexity than other competing approaches.

Deep Learning for Wireless Communications: An Emerging Interdisciplinary Paradigm

Wireless communications are envisioned to bring about dramatic changes in the future, with a variety of emerging applications, such as virtual reality (VR), Internet of things (IoT), etc., becoming a reality. However, these compelling applications have imposed many new challenges, including unknown channel models, low-latency requirement in large-scale super-dense networks, etc. The amazing success of deep learning (DL) in various fields, particularly in computer science, has recently stimulated increasing interest in applying it to address those challenges. Hence, in this review, a pair of dominant methodologies of using DL for wireless communications are investigated. The first one is DL-based architecture design, which breaks the classical model-based block design rule of wireless communications in the past decades. The second one is DL-based algorithm design, which will be illustrated by several examples in a series of typical techniques conceived for 5G and beyond. Their principles, key features, and performance gains will be discussed. Furthermore, open problems and future research opportunities will also be pointed out, highlighting the interplay between DL and wireless communications. We expect that this review can stimulate more novel ideas and exciting contributions for intelligent wireless communications.

Principal Component Analysis Based Broadband Hybrid Precoding for Millimeter-Wave Massive MIMO Systems

Hybrid analog-digital precoding is challenging for broadband millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive MIMO systems, since the analog precoder is frequency-flat but the mmWave channels are frequency-selective. In this paper, we propose a principal component analysis (PCA)-based broadband hybrid precoder/combiner design, where both the fully-connected array and partially-connected subarray (including the fixed and adaptive subarrays) are investigated. Specifically, we first design the hybrid precoder/combiner for fully-connected array and fixed subarray based on PCA, whereby a low-dimensional frequency-flat precoder/combiner is acquired based on the optimal high-dimensional frequency-selective precoder/combiner. Meanwhile, the near-optimality of our proposed PCA approach is theoretically proven. Moreover, for the adaptive subarray, a low-complexity shared agglomerative hierarchical clustering algorithm is proposed to group the antennas for the further improvement of spectral efficiency (SE) performance. Besides, we theoretically prove that the proposed antenna grouping algorithm is only determined by the slow time-varying channel parameters in the large antenna limit. Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed solution over state-of-the-art schemes in SE, energy efficiency (EE), bit-error-rate performance, and the robustness to time-varying channels. Our work reveals that the EE advantage of adaptive subarray over fully-connected array is obvious for both active and passive antennas, but the EE advantage of fixed subarray only holds for passive antennas.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for UAV Navigation Through Massive MIMO Technique

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) technique has been recognized as a promising solution in future wireless connectivity from the sky, and UAV navigation is one of the most significant open research problems, which has attracted wide interest in the research community. However, the current UAV navigation schemes are unable to capture the UAV motion and select the best UAV-ground links in real time, and these weaknesses overwhelm the UAV navigation performance. To tackle these fundamental limitations, in this paper, we merge the state-of-theart deep reinforcement learning with the UAV navigation through massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) technique. To be specific, we carefully design a deep Q-network (DQN) for optimizing the UAV navigation by selecting the optimal policy, and then we propose a learning mechanism for processing the DQN. The DQN is trained so that the agent is capable of making decisions based on the received signal strengths for navigating theUAVs with the aid of the powerful Q-learning. Simulation results are provided to corroborate the superiority of the proposed schemes in terms of the coverage and convergence compared with those of the other schemes.

Deep-Learning-based Millimeter-Wave Massive MIMO for Hybrid Precoding

Millimeter wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) has been regarded to be an emerging solution for the next generation of communications, in which hybrid analog and digital precoding is an important method for reducing the hardware complexity and energy consumption associated with mixed signal components. However, the fundamental limitations of the existing hybrid precoding schemes is that they have high computational complexity and fail to fully exploit the spatial information. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes, a deep-learning-enabled mmWave massive MIMO framework for effective hybrid precoding, in which each selection of the precoders for obtaining the optimized decoder is regarded as a mapping relation in the deep neural network (DNN). Specifically, the hybrid precoder is selected through training based on the DNN for optimizing precoding process of the mmWave massive MIMO. Additionally, we present extensive simulation results to validate the excellent performance of the proposed scheme. The results exhibit that the DNN-based approach is capable ofminimizing the bit error ratio (BER) and enhancing spectrum efficiency of the mmWave massive MIMO, which achieves better performance in hybrid precoding compared with conventional schemes while substantially reducing the required computational complexity.

Online Ski Rental for ON/OFF Scheduling of Energy Harvesting Base Stations

The co-existence of small cell base stations (SBSs) with conventional macrocell base station is a promising approach to boost the capacity and coverage of cellular networks. However, densifying the network with a viral deployment of SBSs can significantly increase energy consumption. To reduce the reliance on unsustainable energy sources, one can adopt self-powered SBSs that rely solely on energy harvesting. Due to the uncertainty of energy arrival and the finite capacity of energy storage systems, self-powered SBSs must smartly optimize their ON and OFF schedule. In this paper, the problem of ON/OFF scheduling of self-powered SBSs is studied, in the presence of energy harvesting uncertainty with the goal of minimizing the operational costs consisted of energy consumption and transmission delay of a network. For the original problem, we show an algorithm can solve the problem in the illustrative case. To reduce the complexity of the original problem, an approximation is proposed. To solve the approximated problem, a novel approach based on the ski rental framework, a powerful online optimization tool, is proposed. Using this approach, each SBS can effectively decide on its ON/OFF schedule autonomously, without any prior information on future energy arrivals. By using competitive analysis, a deterministic online algorithm (DOA) and a randomized online algorithm (ROA) are developed. ROA is shown to achieve the optimal competitive ratio in the approximation problem. Simulation results show that, compared to a baseline approach, the ROA can yield performance gains reaching up to 15.6% in terms of reduced total energy consumption of SBSs and up to 20.6% in terms of per-SBS network delay reduction. The results shed light on the fundamental aspects that impact the ON time of SBSs while demonstrating that the proposed ROA can reduce up to 69.9% the total cost compared to a baseline approach.

Structured Matching Pursuit for Reconstruction of Dynamic Sparse Channels

In this paper, by exploiting the special features of temporal correlations of dynamic sparse channels that path delays change slowly over time but path gains evolve faster, we propose the structured matching pursuit (SMP) algorithm to realize the reconstruction of dynamic sparse channels. Specifically, the SMP algorithm divides the path delays of dynamic sparse channels into two different parts to be considered separately, i.e., the common channel taps and the dynamic channel taps. Based on this separation, the proposed SMP algorithm simultaneously detects the common channel taps of dynamic sparse channels in all time slots at first, and then tracks the dynamic channel taps in each single time slot individually. Theoretical analysis of the proposed SMP algorithm provides a guarantee that the common channel taps can be successfully detected with a high probability, and the reconstruction distortion of dynamic sparse channels is linearly upper bounded by the noise power. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed SMP algorithm has excellent reconstruction performance with competitive computational complexity compared with conventional reconstruction algorithms.

Decentralized Energy Allocation for Wireless Networks with Renewable Energy Powered Base Stations

In this paper, a green wireless communication system in which base stations are powered by renewable energy sources is considered. This system consists of a capacity-constrained renewable power supplier (RPS) and a base station (BS) that faces a predictable random connection demand from mobile user equipments (UEs). In this model, the BS powered via a combination of a renewable power source and the conventional electric grid, seeks to specify the renewable power inventory policy, i.e., the power storage level. On the other hand, the RPS must strategically choose the energy amount that is supplied to the BS. An M/M/1 make-to-stock queuing model is proposed to investigate the decentralized decisions when the two parties optimize their individual costs in a noncooperative manner. The problem is formulated as a noncooperative game whose Nash equilibrium (NE) strategies are characterized in order to identify the causes of inefficiency in the decentralized operation. A set of simple linear contracts are introduced to coordinate the system so as to achieve an optimal system performance. The proposed approach is then extended to a setting with one monopolistic RPS and N BSs that are privately informed of their optimal energy inventory levels. In this scenario, we show that the widely-used proportional allocation mechanism is no longer socially optimal. In order to make the BSs truthfully report their energy demand, an incentive compatible (IC) mechanism is proposed for our model.

Compressive sensing based Bayesian sparse channel estimation for OFDM communication systems: high performance and low complexity

In orthogonal frequency division modulation (OFDM) communication systems, channel state information (CSI) is required at receiver due to the fact that frequency-selective fading channel leads to disgusting inter-symbol interference (ISI) over data transmission. Broadband channel model is often described by very few dominant channel taps and they can be probed by compressive sensing based sparse channel estimation (SCE) methods, e.g., orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm, which can take the advantage of sparse structure effectively in the channel as for prior information. However, these developed methods are vulnerable to both noise interference and column coherence of training signal matrix. In other words, the primary objective of these conventional methods is to catch the dominant channel taps without a report of posterior channel uncertainty. To improve the estimation performance, we proposed a compressive sensing based Bayesian sparse channel estimation (BSCE) method which can not only exploit the channel sparsity but also mitigate the unexpected channel uncertainty without scarifying any computational complexity. The propose method can reveal potential ambiguity among multiple channel estimators that are ambiguous due to observation noise or correlation interference among columns in the training matrix. Computer simulations show that propose method can improve the estimation performance when comparing with conventional SCE methods.

The Application of MIMO to Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access

This paper considers the application of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques to non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems. A new design of precoding and detection matrices for MIMO-NOMA is proposed and its performance is analyzed for the case with a fixed set of power allocation coefficients. To further improve the performance gap between MIMO-NOMA and conventional orthogonal multiple access schemes, user pairing is applied to NOMA and its impact on the system performance is characterized. More sophisticated choices of power allocation coefficients are also proposed to meet various quality of service requirements. Finally computer simulation results are provided to facilitate the performance evaluation of MIMO-NOMA and also demonstrate the accuracy of the developed analytical results.

Extra Gain:Improved Sparse Channel Estimation Using Reweighted l_1-norm Penalized LMS/F Algorithm

The channel estimation is one of important techniques to ensure reliable broadband signal transmission. Broadband channels are often modeled as a sparse channel. Comparing with traditional dense-assumption based linear channel estimation methods, e.g., least mean square/fourth (LMS/F) algorithm, exploiting sparse structure information can get extra performance gain. By introducing l_1-norm penalty, two sparse LMS/F algorithms, (zero-attracting LMSF, ZA-LMS/F and reweighted ZA-LMSF, RZA-LMSF), have been proposed [1]. Motivated by existing reweighted l_1-norm (RL1) sparse algorithm in compressive sensing [2], we propose an improved channel estimation method using RL1 sparse penalized LMS/F (RL1-LMS/F) algorithm to exploit more efficient sparse structure information. First, updating equation of RL1-LMS/F is derived. Second, we compare their sparse penalize strength via figure example. Finally, computer simulation results are given to validate the superiority of proposed method over than conventional two methods.

Adaptive MIMO Channel Estimation using Sparse Variable Step-Size NLMS Algorithms

To estimate multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels, invariable step-size normalized least mean square (ISSNLMS) algorithm was applied to adaptive channel estimation (ACE). Since the MIMO channel is often described by sparse channel model due to broadband signal transmission, such sparsity can be exploited by adaptive sparse channel estimation (ASCE) methods using sparse ISS-NLMS algorithms. It is well known that step-size is a critical parameter which controls three aspects: algorithm stability, estimation performance and computational cost. The previous approaches can exploit channel sparsity but their step-sizes are keeping invariant which unable balances well the three aspects and easily cause either estimation performance loss or instability. In this paper, we propose two stable sparse variable step-size NLMS (VSS-NLMS) algorithms to improve the accuracy of MIMO channel estimators. First, ASCE for estimating MIMO channels is formulated in MIMO systems. Second, different sparse penalties are introduced to VSS-NLMS algorithm for ASCE. In addition, difference between sparse ISSNLMS algorithms and sparse VSS-NLMS ones are explained. At last, to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms for ASCE, several selected simulation results are shown to prove that the proposed sparse VSS-NLMS algorithms can achieve better estimation performance than the conventional methods via mean square error (MSE) and bit error rate (BER) metrics.

RZA-NLMF algorithm based adaptive sparse sensing for realizing compressive sensing problems

Nonlinear sparse sensing (NSS) techniques have been adopted for realizing compressive sensing in many applications such as Radar imaging. Unlike the NSS, in this paper, we propose an adaptive sparse sensing (ASS) approach using reweighted zero-attracting normalized least mean fourth (RZA-NLMF) algorithm which depends on several given parameters, i.e., reweighted factor, regularization parameter and initial step-size. First, based on the independent assumption, Cramer Rao lower bound (CRLB) is derived as for the trademark of performance comparisons. In addition, reweighted factor selection method is proposed for achieving robust estimation performance. Finally, to verify the algorithm, Monte Carlo based computer simulations are given to show that the ASS achieves much better mean square error (MSE) performance than the NSS.

Two are Better Than One: Adaptive Sparse System Identification using Affine Combination of Two Sparse Adaptive Filters

Sparse system identification problems often exist in many applications, such as echo interference cancellation, sparse channel estimation, and adaptive beamforming. One of popular adaptive sparse system identification (ASSI) methods is adopting only one sparse least mean square (LMS) filter. However, the adoption of only one sparse LMS filter cannot simultaneously achieve fast convergence speed and small steady-state mean state deviation (MSD). Unlike the conventional method, we propose an improved ASSI method using affine combination of two sparse LMS filters to simultaneously achieving fast convergence and low steady-state MSD. First, problem formulation and standard affine combination of LMS filters are introduced. Then an approximate optimum affine combiner is adopted for the proposed filter according to stochastic gradient search method. Later, to verify the proposed filter for ASSI, computer simulations are provided to confirm effectiveness of the proposed filter which can achieve better estimation performance than the conventional one and standard affine combination of LMS filters.
