and existing fixed wireless access (FWA) systems is studied. Spectral emission mask is used as well as interference to noise ratio (I/N) of-6 dB as one of standard sharing criterion value at FWA systems recommended by international telecommunication union radio sector ITU-R. Three channel bandwidths of (3.5, 7, and 10 MHz) of WiMAX system are selected to be studied with 7 MHz FWA channel in den...

Cognitive radio (CR) is an emerging wireless communications paradigm of sharing spectrum among licensed (or, primary) and unlicensed (or, CR) users. In CR networks, interference mitigation is crucial not only for primary user protection, but also for the quality of service of CR user themselves. In this paper, we consider the problem of interference mitigation via channel assignment and power a...

Artificial neural network (ANN) has application in communication engineering in diverse areas such as channel equalization, channel modeling, error control code because of its capability of nonlinear processing, adaptability, and parallel processing. On the other hand, wavelet transform (WT) with both the time and the frequency resolution provides the exact representation of signal in both doma...

In this paper, channel capacity of multiple-input multiple-output wireless local area network (MIMO-WLAN) systems with single co-channel interference (CCI) is calculated. A ray-tracing approach is used to calculate the channel frequency response, which is further used to calculate the corresponding channel capacity. The ability to combat CCI for the MIMO-WLAN simple uniform linear array (ULA) a...

In multiple-access communication systems co-channel interference can be mitigated by applying multiuser detection instead of treating the interference as additive noise [1]. In this paper we focus on downlink operation in a GSM-like TDMA network and investigate multiuser channel estimation and data symbol detection of two users that share the same physical channel in two adjacent cells. Such a ...

This paper treats the problem of digital TV terrestrial broadcasting in presence of co-channel interference from analogue TV services. The channel capacity is calculated for the optimum distribution of the transmitted power. An OFDM scheme is presented which is designed to be robust to the analogue TV interference. Power and number of bits per symbol are assigned to each OFDM channel to give th...

New services such as high-speed data transmission and multimedia applications have tremendously increased the bandwidth requirements for communications in the last two decades. On the other hand, the emerging need for access to information everywhere at every time (ubiquity) has focused attention over wireless communications. At the physical layer, wireless broadband transmission is characteriz...

This paper presents the method of measuring the feedback channel, which is developed between the transmit and receive antennas of a wireless repeater by receiving the transmit singal from its tranmit antenna at the receive antenna of the identical repeater, and experiment results otained by anlyzing the measurements. This experiment uses 2GHz W-CDMA signal and is carried out near a highway. The...

Abstract In DS-CDMA cellular communications systems, the single frequency reuse is utilized and hence large co-channel interference is received from other cells. If the single frequency reuse is not utilized to reduce the other-cell interference, we will face the frequency allocation problem, similar to FDMA systems. In this paper, we divide the available wide frequency band into several narrow...
