Ultra-dense network (UDN) has been considered as a promising candidate for future 5G network to meet the explosive data demand. To realize UDN, a reliable, Gigahertz bandwidth, and cost-effective backhaul connecting ultra-dense small-cell base stations (BSs) and macro-cell BS is prerequisite. Millimeter-wave (mmWave) can provide the potential Gbps traffic for wireless backhaul. Moreover, mmWave...

In this thesis, different aspects of lattice-based precoding and decoding for the transmission of digital and analog data over MIMO fading channels are investigated: 1) Lattice-based precoding in MIMO broadcast systems: A new viewpoint for adopting the lattice reduction in communication over MIMO broadcast channels is introduced. Lattice basis reduction helps us to reduce the average transmitte...

This paper investigates the performance of MIMO ad hoc networks that employ transmit diversity, as delivered by the Alamouti scheme, and/or spatial multiplexing, according to the Vertical Bell Labs Layered Space-Time system (V-BLAST). Both techniques are implemented in a discrete-event network simulator by focusing on their overall effect on the resulting signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio...

In this work we study the secrecy capacity of Gaussian multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wiretap channels (WTCs) with a finite memory, subject to a per-symbol average power constraint on the MIMO channel input. MIMO channels with finite memory are very common in wireless communications as well as in wireline communications (e.g., in communications over power lines). To derive the secrecy ca...

-MIMO-OFDM system has been currently recognized as one of the most competitive technology for 4G mobile wireless systems. MIMOOFDM system can compensate for the lacks of MIMO systems and give play to the advantages of OFDM system. In this paper, a general orthogonal space time block code (OSTBC) structure is proposed for multiple-input multiple-output–orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing ...

The complexity of next generation wireless systems is growing exponentially. The combination of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology with Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is considered as the best solution to provide high data rates under frequency-selective fading channels. The design and evaluation of MIMO-OFDM systems require a detailed analysis of a number of fu...

Based on the three-dimensional GBSBCM (geometrically based double bounce cylinder model) channel model of MIMO for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the simple form of UAV space-time-frequency channel correlation function which includes the LOS, SPE, and DIF components is presented. By the methods of channel matrix decomposition and coefficient normalization, the analytic formula of UAV-MIMO norma...

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is seen as an enabling technology to fulfill dramatic improvements in spectral efficiency for 5G deployment in 2020. For massive MIMO systems, the learning loop from early stage prototype design to final stage performance validation, is expected to be slow and ineffective. There is a strong need to evaluate massive MIMO base station (BS) performance...

This paper reports on a new class of equalisation/detection for Wideband Multiple Input Multiple Output Communications Systems (MIMO). The proposed scheme is somewhat akin to a multi-carrier MIMO system, and more precisely, builds upon a Single Carrier Frequency Domain Equalised (SCFDE) MIMO System. At the core of our system lies a novel concept of iterative self-reused equalisation/detection (...
