Journal ArticleDOI

Capacity and power allocation for spectrum-sharing communications in fading channels

TL;DR: This paper derives the fading channel capacity of a secondary user subject to both average and peak received-power constraints at the primary's receiver and derives the capacity and optimum power allocation scheme for three different capacity notions, namely, ergodic, outage, and minimum-rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Comprehensive Survey on “Various Decoupling Mechanisms With Focus on Metamaterial and Metasurface Principles Applicable to SAR and MIMO Antenna Systems”

TL;DR: It is shown that the mutual-coupling reduction methods inspired by MTM and MTS concepts can provide a higher level of isolation between neighbouring radiating elements using easily realizable and cost-effective decoupling configurations that have negligible consequence on the array’s characteristics such as bandwidth, gain and radiation efficiency, and physical footprint.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fundamental capacity limits of cognitive radio in fading environments with imperfect channel information

TL;DR: This paper considers that a secondary user may access the spectrum allocated to a primary user as long as the interference power, inflicted at the primar's receiver as an effect of the transmission of the secondary user, remains below predefined power limits, average or peak.
Journal ArticleDOI

Closed-form expressions for the outage and ergodic Shannon capacity of MIMO MRC systems

TL;DR: A simple algorithm is proposed that allows evaluating an exact and tractable expression for the probability density function of the SNR at the output of the TB receiver, subject to Rayleigh fading, thereby avoiding the need for time-consuming numerical integrations or Monte Carlo simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

RF-Based Energy Harvesting in Decode-and-Forward Relaying Systems: Ergodic and Outage Capacities

TL;DR: An interference aided energy harvesting scheme is proposed for cooperative relaying systems, where energy-constrained relays harvest energy from the received information signal and co-channel interference signals, and then use that harvested energy to forward the correctly decoded signal to the destination.
