We address the issue of the parametric performance of the Hierarchical-Decode-and-Forward (HDF) strategy in a wireless 2-way relay channel. Promising HDF, representing the concept of wireless network coding, performs well with a pre-coding strategy that requires Channel State Information (CSI) on the transceiver side. Assuming a practical case when CSI is available only on the receiver side and the channel conditions do not allow adaptive strategies, the parametrization causes significant HDF performance degradation for some modulation alphabets. Alphabets that are robust to the parametrization (denoted Uniformly Most Powerful (UMP)) have already been proposed restricting on the class of non-linear multi-dimensional frequency modulations. In this work, we focus on the general design of unrestricted UMP alphabets. We formulate an optimization problem which is solved by standard non-linear convex constrained optimization algorithms, particularly by Nelder-Mead global optimization search, which is further refined by the local interior-pointsmethod.

SUMMARYThis paper reports an extended state observer (ESO)-based robust dynamic surface control (DSC) method for triaxial MEMS gyroscope applications. An ESO with non-linear gain function is designed to estimate both velocity and disturbance vectors of the gyroscope dynamics via measured position signals. Using the sector-bounded property of the non-linear gain function, the design of an $\mathcal{L}_2$-robust ESO is phrased as a convex optimization problem in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Next, by using the estimated velocity and disturbance, a certainty equivalence tracking controller is designed based on DSC. To achieve an improved robustness and to remove static steady-state tracking errors, new non-linear integral error surfaces are incorporated into the DSC. Based on the energy-to-peak ($\mathcal{L}_2$-$\mathcal{L}_\infty$) performance criterion, a finite number of LMIs are derived to obtain the DSC gains. In order to prevent amplification of the measurement noise in the DSC error dynamics, a multi-objective convex optimization problem, which guarantees a prescribed $\mathcal{L}_2$-$\mathcal{L}_\infty$ performance bound, is considered. Finally, the efficacy of the proposed control method is illustrated by detailed software simulations.

In this work, we present a framework analysis of a millimeter wave (mmWave) vehicular communications systems. Communications between vehicles take place through a cooperative relay which acts as an intermediary base station (BS). The relay is equipped with multiple transmit and receive antennas and it employs decode-and-forward (DF) to process the signal. Also, the relay applies maximal ratio combining (MRC), and maximal ratio transmission (MRT), respectively, to receive and forward the signal.As the vehicles' speeds are relative high, the channel experiences a fast fading and this time variation is modeled following the Jake's autocorrelation model. We also assume narrowband fading channel. Closed-form expressions of the reliability metrics such as the outage probability and the mean rate are derived. Capitalizing on these performances, we derive the high signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) asymptotes to get full insights into the system gains such as the diversity and coding gains.

Relying has in use for decades to tackle some of the challenges of wireless communication such as extending transmitting distance, transmitting over rough terrains. Diversity achieved through relaying is also a means to combat the random behavior of fading channels. In this work, effect of time and power allocation on relay performance is studied. The channel considered is the three-node channel with half-duplex constraint on the relay. The relaying technique assumed is decode-and-forward. Mutual information is used as the criteria to measure channel performance. There is half-duplex constraint and a total transmission power constraint on the relay source node and the relay node. A model is established to analyze the mutual information as a function of time allocation and power allocation in the case of AWGN regime. The model is extended to the Rayleigh fading scenario. In both AWGN and Rayleigh fading, results showed that the importance of relaying is more apparent when more resources are allocated to the relay. It was also shown that quality of the source to destination link has direct impact on the decision to relay or not to relay. Relatively good source to destination channel makes relaying less useful. The opposite is true for the other two links, namely the source to relay channel and the relay to destination channel. When these two channels are good, relaying becomes advantageous. When applied to cellular systems, we concluded that relaying is more beneficial to battery-operated mobile nodes than to base stations.

A systemic approach to solving multicriteria optimization problems is proposed. The system approach allowed uniting the models of individual schemes of compromises into a single integrated structure that adapts to the situation of adopting a multi-criteria solution. The advantage of the concept of non-linear scheme of compromises is the possibility of making a multicriteria decision formally, without the direct participation of a person. The apparatus of the non-linear scheme of compromises, developed as a formalized tool for the study of control systems with conflicting criteria, makes it possible to solve practically multicriteria problems of a wide class.

Compared with the conventional simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) based relaying with “harvest-then-forward” protocol, the battery-assisted SWIPT relaying is more practical and powerful due to the joint use of the harvested energy and supplementary battery. However, to the best of our knowledge, the performance of a battery-assisted power splitting (PS)-SWIPT decode-and-forward (DF) relay system has not been studied. In this paper, for a given amount of energy from the relay’s battery, we propose to maximize the outage and ergodic capacities by optimizing the static and dynamic PS ratios that rely on statistical and instantaneous channel state information (CSI), respectively, and derive their corresponding outage and ergodic capacities. Computer simulations validate our analytical results and demonstrate the advantages of the dynamic PS over the static PS in terms of the outage and ergodic capacities, as well as the energy efficiency.
