Frequency domain equalization for single-carrier broadband wireless systems

TL;DR: This article surveys frequency domain equalization (FDE) applied to single-carrier (SC) modulation solutions and discusses similarities and differences of SC and OFDM systems and coexistence possibilities, and presents examples of SC-FDE performance capabilities.
Abstract: Broadband wireless access systems deployed in residential and business environments are likely to face hostile radio propagation environments, with multipath delay spread extending over tens or hundreds of bit intervals. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplex (OFDM) is a recognized multicarrier solution to combat the effects of such multipath conditions. This article surveys frequency domain equalization (FDE) applied to single-carrier (SC) modulation solutions. SC radio modems with frequency domain equalization have similar performance, efficiency, and low signal processing complexity advantages as OFDM, and in addition are less sensitive than OFDM to RF impairments such as power amplifier nonlinearities. We discuss similarities and differences of SC and OFDM systems and coexistence possibilities, and present examples of SC-FDE performance capabilities.

TL;DR: The interference coordination techniques, i.e., the user clustering and the decentralized inter-cell (or inter-BS) interference coordination, for further improving the area spectrum efficiency and for enhancing the flexible and scalable deployment of distributed MIMO system are presented.
Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive introduction of the distributed MIMO cooperative transmission technique which has been developed under the framework of national 5G research & development (4-year project of 2015 2018) funded by Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC), Japan. The distributed MIMO cooperative transmission includes single-user space-time block code transmit diversity (STBC-TD), multi-user minimum mean square error (MMSE) based filtering jointly used with eigenmode filtering obtained by singular value decomposition (SVD), called MMSE-SVD in short, and blind selected mapping (blind SLM). The bit error rate (BER), link capacity, and peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR)-complexity tradeoff performances of distributed MIMO cooperative transmission, evaluated by extensive numerical and computer simulation, are presented. Furthermore, the interference coordination techniques, i.e., the user clustering and the decentralized inter-cell (or inter-BS) interference coordination (ICIC), for further improving the area spectrum efficiency and for enhancing the flexible and scalable deployment of distributed MIMO system are also presented.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a signal generator and signal processor for single carrier wireless communication systems with frequency domain equalizer, which are operable to use pseudorandom-noise sequences for cyclic prefix. The different arrangements and examples of said pseudorandom-noise sequences could be used for coarse timing synchronization, channel estimation, carrier synchronization, signal-noise-ration estimation and channel equalization.

TL;DR: Simulation results have proved that the BER performance is not much affected by the PAPR reduction, and the effect of peak power reduction and the channel estimation error on the system Bit Error Rate is investigated.
Abstract: The Single-Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) system is a popular system in mobile communication systems because of its advantage of low Peak-to-Average-Power- Ratio (PAPR), and the use of frequency-domain equalizers techniques to reduce Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) and Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI). This paper presents a comprehensive study of the SC-FDMA system with PAPR reduction using clipping and filtering in the presence of channel estimation errors for two different versions of SC-FDMA adopting the FFT and the DCT. The effect of peak power reduction and the channel estimation error on the system Bit Error Rate (BER) is investigated. Simulation results have proved that the BER performance is not much affected by the PAPR reduction.

TL;DR: Front-end imperfections are examined to demonstrate the influence of erroneous calibration, phase noise and nonlinear amplifiers, which increases with the number of spatially multiplexed data streams culminating in unacceptable performance degradation in fully loaded systems.
Abstract: In multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems the performance of joint detection and joint predistortion techniques highly depends on the quality of radio-frequency (RF) components. Therefore, the focus of this paper is on front-end imperfections. We demonstrate the influence of erroneous calibration (which is essential for downlink predistortion), phase noise and nonlinear amplifiers. For all issues we elaborate on the different disturbances that arise, analyse the impact on symbol estimation and evaluate system performance in ierms of coded bit error ratio (BER). A general result for all examined front-end imperfections is that their influence increases with the number of spatially multiplexed data streams culminating in unacceptable performance degradation in fully loaded systems. Moreover, Wiener-based detection and predistortion reduces the degradation due to front-end imperfections in low SNR regimes compared to zero forcing.

TL;DR: The analysis and simulation of a technique for combating the effects of multipath propagation and cochannel interference on a narrow-band digital mobile channel using the discrete Fourier transform to orthogonally frequency multiplex many narrow subchannels, each signaling at a very low rate, into one high-rate channel is discussed.
Abstract: This paper discusses the analysis and simulation of a technique for combating the effects of multipath propagation and cochannel interference on a narrow-band digital mobile channel. This system uses the discrete Fourier transform to orthogonally frequency multiplex many narrow subchannels, each signaling at a very low rate, into one high-rate channel. When this technique is used with pilot-based correction, the effects of flat Rayleigh fading can be reduced significantly. An improvement in signal-to-interference ratio of 6 dB can be obtained over the bursty Rayleigh channel. In addition, with each subchannel signaling at a low rate, this technique can provide added protection against delay spread. To enhance the behavior of the technique in a heavily frequency-selective environment, interpolated pilots are used. A frequency offset reference scheme is employed for the pilots to improve protection against cochannel interference.

TL;DR: In this contribution the transmission of M-PSK and M-QAM modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signals over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is considered and the degradation of the bit error rate is evaluated.
Abstract: In this contribution the transmission of M-PSK and M-QAM modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signals over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel is considered. The degradation of the bit error rate (BER), caused by the presence of carrier frequency offset and carrier phase noise is analytically evaluated. It is shown that for a given BER degradation, the values of the frequency offset and the linewidth of the carrier generator that are allowed for OFDM are orders of magnitude smaller than for single carrier systems carrying the same bit rate. >
