This paper presents the coexistence issues between M-WiMAX TDD and WCDMA FDD systems. To improve the M-WiMAX system performance and to reduce the adjacent channel interference to WCDMA FDD system, transmit and receive beamforming techniques are applied in the base stations of M-WiMAX system. Furthermore, we propose an adjacent channel interference modeling methodology, which captures the effect of transmit beamforming on the adjacent channel interference. Besides, we verify the performance improvement in the uplink of WCDMA system due to the transmit beamforming in M-WiMAX downlink based on the proposed adjacent channel interference modeling methodology. We also verify the performance enhancement due to the receive beamforming in the uplink of M-WiMAX system through system level Monte Carlo simulations, considering random user position, the effect of shadowing and multi-path fading channel. Discussions on the gain of applying transmit and receive beamforming in M-WiMAX system comparing the case of SISO system are also included. Furthermore, we present the performance of cosited M-WiMAX and WCDMA systems, considering commercial deployment, additional channel filter at base stations and the effects of TxBF and RxBF.

Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission adopt the Base Stations (BS) cooperatively process User Equipment (UE) connected to multi-points to improve UEs spectral efficiency at the cell edge and eliminate the inter-cell interference (ICI). This technology is important for UEs at the cell edge. Considering the real environment, energy consumption and cost situation, we propose in a Local C-RAN architecture deployment of CoMP and observed its spectral efficiency and Signal-to-Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR) in intra-site CoMP scenarios. Simulation results show that this approach has significantly enhanced than Non-CoMP.

In CDMA cellular system, because all users share the frequency resource the signals of other user becomes interference which influences the communication quality. The system capacity defined the number of connected users within a cell is determined by the amount of interference, therefore the exact estimation of interference is important to system performance evaluation. In this paper, we propose an approximated function which calculates other cell interference in terms of Riemann-Zeta function in CDMA cellular systems, and compare with simulation results in other to verify its usefulness. The upper and lower bounds of system capacity calculated with the proposed approximated function gives almost alike result with the simulation. The proposed interference bounds are useful to calculate system capacity and to evaluate some algorithm in a hierarchical cellular systems where various propagation environments are mixed.

In this paper we have evaluated the degree of performance improvement in Multi-Carrier CDMA system adopting CCI canceller against MUI under mobile channel coexisting MU which is a major interference degrading the performance of Multi-carrier CDMA system. As a result of analysis, BER performance was improved by adopting CCI canceller and it was found that the amount of performance improvement was largely increased as Eb/No became higher. As an example, in case that data service BER = 10$^{-5}$ must be achieved with $E_{b/}$ $N_{o}$ = 12 ㏈, 4 users could be supported without CCI canceller while 30 users could be supported with CCI canceller, Also, we found that performance improving effect of 5$\times$10$^{-3}$ in a point of view BER could be achieved by adopting CCI canceller with fixed $E_{b/}$ $N_{o}$. o/. o/.

As implementation of the in-band full duplex (IFD) transceiver becomes feasible, research interest is growing with respect to using IFD communication with cellular networks. However, the cellular network in which the IFD communication is applied inevitably suffers from an increase of the co-channel interference (CCI) due to IFD simultaneous transmission and reception. In this paper, we analyze the performance of a cellular network based on uni-directional IFD (UD-IFD) communication, wherein an IFD base station simultaneously supports downlink and uplink transmissions of half-duplex (HD) users. In addition, a multi-pair CCI cancellation (MP-CCIC) method combining CCIC and user pairing is proposed to improve the performance of the UD-IFD network. Simulation results showed that, compared to a conventional HD cellular network without using CCIC, capacity gain was not obtained in the UD-IFD cellular network. On the other hand, when applying the proposed MP-CCIC, the capacity of the UD-IFD cellular network greatly improved compared to that of an HD cellular network.

In this paper, we proposed adaptive MMSE receiver, which use channel equalizer to eliminate the interference due to multi-path fading and adaptive filter to eliminate the multiple access interference. The unique features of proposed receiver schemes are as following. We use pilot channel to estimate the channel coefficients exactly and guard symbols which are inserted periodically to estimate channel coefficients exactly without interference from user signals. The length of channel equalizer also can be reduced with the help of guard symbols. Especially utilizing adaptive code-matched filter(AMMSE) when the user population is high and SNR is not low we accepts excellent performance improvement.

To cope with an increasing amount of data traffic, research efforts are being made to maximize the data rate by reducing the interference between the transmission nodes. This paper also focuses on interference control schemes utilizing antenna sub-array beam-forming. The first scheme relies on horizontal beam rotation which utilizes three types of narrow beam patterns. Different beam patterns are applied to transmit signals in rotating fashion to control the interference. The second scheme is based on user-specific sub-array beamforming, which uses the precoding matrix based on users' location and controls the amount of interference in the multi-user environment. The performance of the proposed schemes is evaluated using the computer simulation to demonstrate the performance enhancement.

Since the cross-correlation function which is due to communication channel distortion or interference is not orthogonal, near far problem and multi-user interference are generated in the DS-CDMA system. Those problems degrade performance of the system so that the efficient algorithm to suppress the interference in the DS-CDMA system is required. In this paper, a blind adaptive interference suppressor using constant modulus algorithm is proposed. Simulation results present that the gain of SIR for the blind adaptive receiver is about 7[dB] at steady state over Gaussian channel in forward channel. The gain of noise to interference ration is about 4[dB] over Rayleigh fading channel, is about 11[dB] over multipath channels. Thus the proposed receiver has higher performance than a conventional receiver in the DS-CDMA system.

In this paper, we introduce three types of opportunistic interference management strategies in multi-cell uplink networks with time-invariant channel coefficients. First, we propose two types of opportunistic interference mitigation techniques, where each base station (BS) opportunistically selects a set of users who generate the minimum interference to the other BSs, and then their performance is analyzed in terms of degrees-of-freedom (DoF). Second, we propose a distributed opportunistic scheduling, where each BS opportunistically select a user using a scheduler designed based on two threshold, and then its performance is analyzed in terms of throughput scaling law. Finally, numerical evaluation is performed to verify our result.

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is a promising approach for cellular communication due to its energy efficiency and high achievable data rate. These advantages, however, can be realized only when channel state information (CSI) is available at the transmitter. Since there are many antennas, CSI is too large to feed back without compression. To compress CSI, prior work has applied compressive sensing (CS) techniques and the fact that CSI can be sparsified. The adopted sparsifying bases fail, however, to reflect the spatial correlation and channel conditions or to be feasible in practice. In this paper, we propose a new sparsifying basis that reflects the long-term characteristics of the channel, and needs no change as long as the spatial correlation model does not change. We propose a new reconstruction algorithm for CS, and also suggest dimensionality reduction as a compression method. To feed back compressed CSI in practice, we propose a new codebook for the compressed channel quantization assuming no other-cell interference. Numerical results confirm that the proposed channel feedback mechanisms show better performance in point-to-point (single-user) and point-to-multi-point (multi-user) scenarios.
