Book Digital Communication Over Fading Channels

Download or read book Digital Communication Over Fading Channels written by Marvin K. Simon and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 2000-08-14 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unified presentation, broad coverage, single-volume convenience This timesaving reference provides a unified approach to the performance analysis of digital communication systems over generalized fading channels. Employing alternative forms of such classical mathematical functions as the Gaussian Q-function, the Marcum Q-function, and the incomplete Gamma function, the book expresses communication system error probability performance in terms of the moment generation function (MGF) of the fading process. This MGF-based approach provides the unifying backbone of the book. Digital Communication over Fading Channels discusses in detail coherent, differentially coherent, and noncoherent communication systems as well as a large variety of fading channel models typical of communication links found in the real world. Coverage also includes single- and multichannel reception and, in the case of the latter, a large variety of diversity types. For each combination of communication type, channel fading model, and diversity type, the average bit error rate and/or symbol error rate is expressed in an easy-to-evaluate form. Special features include: * Important results previously scattered over many publications-now in a single volume * Simplified results heretofore available only in complex forms * Extremely broad coverage of topics * Explores practical applications, including the problem of optimum combining in the presence of co-channel interference

Book Iterative Detection for Wireless Communications

Download or read book Iterative Detection for Wireless Communications written by Asri Shaheem and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] The transmission of digital information over a wireless communication channel gives rise to a number of issues which can detract from the system performance. Propagation effects such as multipath fading and intersymbol interference (ISI) can result in significant performance degradation. Recent developments in the field of iterative detection have led to a number of powerful strategies that can be effective in mitigating the detrimental effects of wireless channels. In this thesis, iterative detection is considered for use in two distinct areas of wireless communications. The first considers the iterative decoding of concatenated block codes over slow flat fading wireless channels, while the second considers the problem of detection for a coded communications system transmitting over highly-dispersive frequency-selective wireless channels. The iterative decoding of concatenated codes over slow flat fading channels with coherent signalling requires knowledge of the fading amplitudes, known as the channel state information (CSI). The CSI is combined with statistical knowledge of the channel to form channel reliability metrics for use in the iterative decoding algorithm. When the CSI is unknown to the receiver, the existing literature suggests the use of simple approximations to the channel reliability metric. However, these works generally consider low rate concatenated codes with strong error correcting capabilities. In some situations, the error correcting capability of the channel code must be traded for other requirements, such as higher spectral efficiency, lower end-to-end latency and lower hardware cost. ... In particular, when the error correcting capabilities of the concatenated code is weak, the conventional metrics are observed to fail, whereas the proposed metrics are shown to perform well regardless of the error correcting capabilities of the code. The effects of ISI caused by a frequency-selective wireless channel environment can also be mitigated using iterative detection. When the channel can be viewed as a finite impulse response (FIR) filter, the state-of-the-art iterative receiver is the maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) based turbo equaliser. However, the complexity of this receiver's MAP equaliser increases exponentially with the length of the FIR channel. Consequently, this scheme is restricted for use in systems where the channel length is relatively short. In this thesis, the use of a channel shortening prefilter in conjunction with the MAP-based turbo equaliser is considered in order to allow its use with arbitrarily long channels. The prefilter shortens the effective channel, thereby reducing the number of equaliser states. A consequence of channel shortening is that residual ISI appears at the input to the turbo equaliser and the noise becomes coloured. In order to account for the ensuing performance loss, two simple enhancements to the scheme are proposed. The first is a feedback path which is used to cancel residual ISI, based on decisions from past iterations. The second is the use of a carefully selected value for the variance of the noise assumed by the MAP-based turbo equaliser. Simulations are performed over a number of highly dispersive channels and it is shown that the proposed enhancements result in considerable performance improvements. Moreover, these performance benefits are achieved with very little additional complexity with respect to the unmodified channel shortened turbo equaliser.

Book Communications Over Noncoherent Doubly Selective Channels

Download or read book Communications Over Noncoherent Doubly Selective Channels written by Arun Pachai Kannu and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Wireless communication systems transferring broadband data in high mobility situations encounter fading channels which are both time and frequency selective. In the noncoherent scenario, the time varying impulse response of the doubly selective channel (DSC) is not available at both the transmitter and the receiver. In this dissertation, we consider the problem of communications over such noncoherent doubly selective channels. Our work has two main themes: to find the fundamental limits on the information rates for reliable communication across noncoherent DSC and to develop simple and efficient encoding/decoding techniques to achieve the promised information rates. Towards this end, we consider block transmissions over DSC and utilize complex-exponential (CE) basis expansion model (BEM) to characterize the channel variation within a block. For noncoherent CE-BEM DSC, we characterize the prelog factor of the constrained ergodic channel capacity in the high SNR regime, when the channel inputs are continuously distributed. Next, we consider the design of pilot aided transmissions (PAT) for CE-BEM DSC, which embeds known pilot signals that the receiver uses to estimate the channel. For a given fixed pilot energy, we derive the necessary and sufficient conditions on the pilot/data pattern to attain minimum mean squared error (MMSE), uncover time-frequency duality of MMSE-PAT structures and obtain novel MMSE-PAT patterns. We obtain bounds on the ergodic achievable rates of MMSE-PAT schemes and perform high signal to noise ratio (SNR) asymptotic analysis which suggests that, a multi-carrier MMSE-PAT achieves higher rates than a single-carrier MMSE-PAT when the channel's delay spread dominates its Doppler spread, and vice versa. We also establish that the pre-log factor of the ergodic rates of all the MMSE-PAT patterns are strictly less than that of the constrained channel capacity, for strictly doubly selective channels. We also design spectrally efficient PAT schemes whose asymptotic achievable rates have the same pre-log factor as that of the constrained channel capacity. Our results provide insights on how the DSC's delay spread and Doppler spread influence the constrained channel capacity and the PAT design. We also extend the MMSE-PAT design to multi-input multi-output (MIMO) CE-BEM DSC.

Book Communicating Over Wireless Channels with Information theoretic Secrecy

Download or read book Communicating Over Wireless Channels with Information theoretic Secrecy written by Xiaojun Tang and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wireless systems are susceptible to eavesdropping as an unwelcome result of the broadcast nature of the wireless medium. Fortunately, the wireless medium also provides endowments including the temporal dispersion, the capability of signal superposition and other properties, to facilitate defending against eavesdropping. The focus of the thesis is to provide schemes for utilizing these properties at the physical layer and their performance analysis from an information-theoretic secrecy perspective. The work is based on Wyner's results on the wire-tap channel, in which the transmission between two legitimate users (Alice and Bob) is eavesdropped upon by Eve. The secrecy level is measured by the equivocation rate at Eve. The system performance is measured by the secrecy capacity. This is the maximum rate at which a message can be sent from Alice to Bob, while constraining the equivocation rate at Eve equal to the communication rate, and thus ensuring that Eve cannot deduce any useful information asymptotically. First, the scenario where a secret message needs to be delivered to the intended receiver within a given delay constraint and without the knowledge of the channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter is considered. In particular, hybrid automatic retransmission request (HARQ) protocols are revisited for a block-fading wire-tap channel via a joint consideration of channel coding, secrecy coding, and retransmission protocols. Two secure HARQ protocols: a repetition time diversity (RTD) scheme with maximal-ratio combining, and an incremental redundancy (INR) scheme based on ratecompatible Wyner secrecy codes are analyzed via an outage-based formulation. The throughput of RTD and INR protocols under probabilistic outage requirements is derived. Asymptotic analysis and numerical computations are given to demonstrate both the benefits of HARQ protocols and the tradeoff between reliability and confidentiality in delay-constrained communications. Second, the effects of interference on information-theoretic secret communication is considered. More specifically, the wiretap channel with a helping interferer (WT-HI) is proposed and studied. Here, an interferer, which does not know the confidential message, helps in ensuring the secrecy of the message by sending independent signals. Achievable secrecy rates and upper bounds on the secrecy capacity are given for both discrete memoryless and Gaussian channels. Interference has conventionally been regarded as a harmful phenomenon that leads to decreasing the rate and the reliability performance of wireless systems. In this work, it is shown that interference can be exploited to assist wireless secrecy. Lastly, the problem of secret key generation over fading channels, in which there exists an additional authenticated, public and error-free feedback channel from Bob to Alice, is considered. A key generation scheme consisting of a communication phase and a key-generation phase is presented. The communication phase is based on layered broadcast coding, which adapts the decoded rate at Bob to the actual channel state without requiring CSI available at Alice. The key-generation phase is based on the messages decoded by Bob after the communication phase and the public feedback. The achievable secrecy key rate and the optimal power distribution over coded layers for maximizing the secrecy key rate are characterized. Theoretical and numerical results show that the broadcast approach outperforms the single-level-coding based approach significantly, and hence demonstrate the role of introducing self-interference in facilitating secret-key generation over slowly fading channels when transmit CSI is not available.
