A practical iterative channel estimation technique is proposed for the multiple-input-multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system in the high-speed mobile environment, such as high speed railway scenario. In the iterative algorithm, the Kalman filter and data detection are jointed to estimate the time-varying channel, where the detection error is considered as part of the noise in the Kalman recursion in each iteration to reduce the effect of the detection error propagation. Moreover, the employed Kalman filter is from the canonical state space model, which does not include the parameters of the autoregressive (AR) model, so the proposed method does not need to estimate the parameters of AR model, whose accuracy affects the convergence speed. Simulation results show that the proposed method is robust to the fast time-varying channel, and it can obtain more gains compared with the available methods.

The study for enhancing the data transmission rate of the next generation wireless communication system using MIMO system operating in the frequency selective fading environment is currently actively conducted. Mixed signal from each transmitted antennas are received at antennas. The training signal with orthogonal property is needed to separate the mixed signal and enable to estimate channel and time synchronization. In this paper we introduce several training sequences used in MIMO communication system and proposed the modified WeCAN sequence with good auto-correlation property in interested area. We compared auto-correlation property of each sequence via simulation and compared the performance of sequences in doppler shift and multipath fading channel.

In this paper, a low complexity parallel sphere decoder algorithm is proposed for high-order MIMO system. It reduces the computational complexity compared to the fixed-complexity sphere decoder (FSD) algorithm by static tree-pruning and dynamic tree-pruning using scalable node operators, and offers near-maximum likelihood decoding performance. Moreover, it also offers hardware-friendly node operation algorithm through fixing the variable computational complexity caused by the sequential nature of the conventional SD algorithm. A Monte Carlo simulation shows our proposed algorithm decreases the average number of expanded nodes by 55% with only 6.3% increase of the normalized decoding time compared to a full parallelized FSD algorithm for high-order MIMO communication system with 16 QAM modulation.

Multiple antennas can provide huge capacity gains when the transmitter knows the channel state information (CSI). Precoding is a technique that exploits CSI at the transmitter side. In this paper, an adaptive precoding scheme is proposed, called a hybrid multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) precoding (HMP). HMP is a combination of linear and nonlinear precoding. The number of transmit antennas less than or equal to four is as same as the conventional antenna selection scheme. Therefore, the HMP scheme uses more than four transmit antennas. The good channel means that the channels must be selected to maximize the channel capacity among the given channels, and the rest channels are called bad channel. In HMP scheme, we use the nonlinear precoding in the good channels and the linear precoding in the bad channels. The well-known Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) is considered as nonlinear precoding. The system throughput and MSE (minimum square error) are shown for the performance of HMP scheme compared to the conventional schemes which are BD (block diagonalization), antenna selection and THP.

This paper considers an uplink power control scheme for a virtual multi-input multi-output (MIMO) multi-cell system where multiple mobile stations with single transmit antenna form a virtual MIMO link. Unlike the conventional approach of the game theoretic formulation to add a power penalty term to improve the performance, a constraint on the total effective interference power is introduced to the maximization of the utility function of the transmission rate with linear receive beamforming. Introducing inertia, we show that the proposed power control is guaranteed to converge. The simulation results verify that the proposed power allocation can significantly improve the performance in an interference limited multi-cell system.

Due to enormous number of user and limited memory space, the memory saving is become an important issue for big data service these days. In the large scaled multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, the Teoplitz channel can play the significance rule to improve the performance as well as power efficiency. In this paper, we propose a Toeplitz channel decomposition based on matrix vectorization. Here we use Toeplitz matrix to the channel for large scaled MIMO system. And we show that the Toeplitz Jacket matrices are decomposed to Cooley-Tukey sparse matrices like fast Fourier transform (FFT).

Multiple antenna technique is attracting attention as a core technology for next-generation mobile communication systems to accommodate explosively increasing mobile data traffic. Especially, recent researches focus on multi-user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) system where base stations are equipped with several tens of transmit antennas and transmit data to multiple terminals (users) simultaneously. To enhance the performance of MU-MIMO systems, we, in this paper, propose an adaptive user selection algorithm which adaptively selects a user set according to varying channel states. According to Monte-Carlo based computer simulations, the performance of proposed scheme is significantly improved compared to the conventional scheme without user selection and approaches that of exhaustive search-based optimal scheme. On the other hand, the proposed scheme can reduce the computational complexity to $K/(2^K-1)$ compared to the optimal scheme where K denotes the number of total users.

This paper presents design of the quantitative feedback control system of the three axes hydraulic road simulator with respect to the dummy wheel for uncertain multiple input-output(MIMO) feedback systems. This simulator has the uncertain parameters such as fluid compressibility, fluid leakage, electrical servo components and nonlinear mechanical connections. This works have reproduced the random input signal to implement the real road vibration's data in the lab. The replaced $m^2$ MISO equivalent control systems satisfied the design specifications of the original $m^*m$ MIMO control system and developed the mathematical method using quantitative feedback theory based on schauder's fixed point theorem. This control system illustrates a tracking performance of the closed-loop controller with low order transfer function G(s) and pre-filter F(s) having the minimum bandwidth for parameters of uncertain plant. The efficacy of the designed controller is verified through the dynamic simulation with combined hydraulic model and Adams simulator model. The Matlab simulation results to connect with Adams simulator model show that the proposed control technique works well under uncertain hydraulic plant system. The designed control system has satisfied robust performance with stability bounds, tracking bounds and disturbance. The Hydraulic road simulator consists of the specimen, hydraulic pump, servo valve, hydraulic actuator and its control equipments

In next generation wireless communication systems based on OFDM, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique is adopted in order to achieve high data throughput with limited bandwidth. As one of MIMO techniques, spatial multiplexing scheme needs high performance data detection algorithm that can be performed with low computational complexity. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can compute QRM-MLD with reduced complexity. Also, hybrid detection technique is proposed, which can reduce the complexity by selecting between MMSE and QRM-MLD according to the channel condition. The proposed algorithm provides the trade-off between performance and complexity. The computer simulations for downlink transmission in 3GPP LTE system show that less than 0.1dB performance degradation can be achieved at 0.1% BER with 59% reduction on computational complexity compared with the conventional QRM-MLD algorithm.

According to information theory, non-orthogonal transmission can achieve the multiple-user channel capacity with an onion-peeling like successive interference cancellation (SIC) based detection followed by a capacity approaching channel code. However, in multiple antenna system, due to the unideal characteristic of the SIC detector, the residual interference propagated to the next detection stage will significantly degrade the detection performance of spatial data layers. To overcome this problem, we proposed a modified power-domain non-orthogonal multiple access (P-NOMA) scheme joint designed with space-time coding for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) NOMA system. First, with proper power allocation for each user, inter-user signals can be separated from each other for NOMA detection. Second, a well-designed quasi-orthogonal space-time block code (QO-STBC) was employed to facilitate the SIC-based MIMO detection of spatial data layers within each user. Last, we proposed an optimization algorithm to assign channel coding rates to balance the bit error rate (BER) performance of those spatial data layers for each user. Link-level performance simulation results demonstrate that the proposed time-space-power domain joint transmission scheme performs better than the traditional P-NOMA scheme. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is of low complexity and easy to implement.
