TLDR
By examining the bit error-rate with antipodal signalling, it is shown that an increase in capacity over a perfectly-power controlled (Gaussian) channel can be achieved, especially if the number of users is large, and the inherent diversity in multiuser communications over fading channels is shown.Abstract:
We consider a power control scheme for maximizing the information capacity of the uplink in single-cell multiuser communications with frequency-flat fading, under the assumption that the users attenuations are measured perfectly. Its main characteristics are that only one user transmits over the entire bandwidth at any particular time instant and that the users are allocated more power when their channels are good, and less when they are bad. Moreover, these features are independent of the statistics of the fading. Numerical results are presented for the case of single-path Rayleigh fading. We show that an increase in capacity over a perfectly-power controlled (Gaussian) channel can be achieved, especially if the number of users is large. By examining the bit error-rate with antipodal signalling, we show the inherent diversity in multiuser communications over fading channels.read more

Hard-Input–Hard-Output Capacity Analysis of UWB BPSK Systems With Timing Errors
TL;DR: It is found that time hopping is less sensitive to the pulse shape and that the timing error has higher capacity than direct sequence due to its low duty of cycle.

Testbed results of an opportunistic routing for multi-robot wireless networks
TL;DR: This work implemented an opportunistic routing, random basketball routing (BR), in a real multi-robot network to see if it can enhance the capacity of the multihop network as mobility increases, and investigates the performance of BR in the large-scale network using NS-2 simulation.

Cross Layer Scheduling Algorithm for IEEE 802.16
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an opportunistic and optimized downlink scheduler that pledges fairness among admitted connections, which divides the scheduling problem into two sub-problems: the first problem calculates the number of time-slots in each time frame corresponding to the service classes with the objective minimizing the blocking probability of each class.

CLAMP: Active queue management at wireless access points
TL;DR: CLAMP provides explicit control over wireless link utilisation and queueing delay at the access point buffer, and can drastically increase the throughput of socalled short TCP flows with negligible loss in long TCP flow throughput.

Information theoretic considerations for cellular mobile radio
TL;DR: Some information-theoretic considerations used to determine upper bounds on the information rates that can be reliably transmitted over a two-ray propagation path mobile radio channel model, operating in a time division multiplex access (TDMA) regime, under given decoding delay constraints are presented.

TL;DR: Shannon-theoretic limits for a very simple cellular multiple-access system, and a scheme which does not require joint decoding of all the users, and is, in many cases, close to optimal.

Estimate of channel capacity in Rayleigh fading environment
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the channel capacity in a Rayleigh fading environment and showed that channel capacity is always lower than that in a Gaussian-noise environment and that diversity schemes can improve channel capacity.
