TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a coupled-tracking navigation receiver that periodically measures carrier phase, carrier frequency, modulation phase, and carrier amplitude for all of the signals arriving at the receiving ports of the receiver and periodically estimates the present values of carrier phase and frequency, and modulation phase for all received signals, the estimating process utilizing for each parameter estimate the parameter measurements for a plurality of the received signals properly combined in a statistically appropriate manner.
Abstract: The navigation receiver with coupled-tracking channels is intended for use in radio navigation systems based on trilateration wherein the times of arrival of radio signals transmitted by a plurality of ground- or space-based terminals are measured by a user terminal and utilized by the user terminal in calculating its position and orientation. The coupled-tracking navigation receiver periodically measures carrier phase, carrier frequency, modulation phase, and carrier amplitude for all of the signals arriving at the receiving ports of the receiver and periodically estimates the present values of carrier phase, carrier frequency, and modulation phase for all of the received signals, the estimating process utilizing for each parameter estimate the parameter measurements for a plurality of the received signals properly combined in a statistically appropriate manner by taking into account the relative geometry of the line-of-sight paths, receiver clock time dynamics, and dynamics and motion constraints of the receiver platform, thereby obtaining better performance under poor signal reception conditions and more accurate estimates of carrier phase, carrier frequency, and modulation phase for each of the received signals than independent measurements alone could provide. It follows that these more accurate estimates of the basic signal parameters lead to more accurate estimates of platform position and attitude and the rates of change of these quantities.

TL;DR: It is argued that the present results on frequency selectivity in modulation detection underline the perceptual relevance of a spectral decomposition of a signal’s temporal envelope and provide a rationale for the application of modern concepts like the speech‐envelope spectrum or the modulation‐transfer function in relation to speech intelligibility.
Abstract: For a broadband noise carrier, the modulation detection threshold for sinusoidal amplitude modulation (the test modulation) is measured in the presence of an additional modulation (the masker modulation). Two traditional approaches for revealing effects of frequency selectivity in the audiofrequency domain are shown to give comparable results in the modulation‐frequency domain: (1) a typically peaked modulation‐detection threshold pattern when the masker modulation is a fixed narrow band of noise, and (2) an effect of leveling off of the increase of the modulation‐detection threshold when, for a fixed test‐modulation frequency, the masker‐modulation bandwidth is widened beyond a certain ‘‘critical’’ bandwidth. It is argued that the present results on frequency selectivity in modulation detection underline the perceptual relevance of a spectral decomposition of a signal’s temporal envelope and provide a rationale for the application of modern concepts like the speech‐envelope spectrum or the modulation‐transfer function in relation to speech intelligibility.

TL;DR: In this paper, an IRS-aided wireless network is considered, where an IRS with only a finite number of phase shifts at each element is deployed to assist in the communication from a multi-antenna access point (AP) to multiple single antenna users, and the authors aim to minimize the transmit power at the AP by jointly optimizing the continuous transmit precoding at AP and the discrete reflect phase shifts, subject to a given set of minimum signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) constraints at the user receivers.
Abstract: Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a cost-effective solution for achieving high spectrum and energy efficiency in future wireless networks by leveraging massive low-cost passive elements that are able to reflect the signals with adjustable phase shifts. Prior works on IRS mainly consider continuous phase shifts at reflecting elements, which are practically difficult to implement due to the hardware limitation. In contrast, we study in this paper an IRS-aided wireless network, where an IRS with only a finite number of phase shifts at each element is deployed to assist in the communication from a multi-antenna access point (AP) to multiple single-antenna users. We aim to minimize the transmit power at the AP by jointly optimizing the continuous transmit precoding at the AP and the discrete reflect phase shifts at the IRS, subject to a given set of minimum signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) constraints at the user receivers. The considered problem is shown to be a mixed-integer non-linear program (MINLP) and thus is difficult to solve in general. To tackle this problem, we first study the single-user case with one user assisted by the IRS and propose both optimal and suboptimal algorithms for solving it. Besides, we analytically show that as compared to the ideal case with continuous phase shifts, the IRS with discrete phase shifts achieves the same squared power gain in terms of asymptotically large number of reflecting elements, while a constant proportional power loss is incurred that depends only on the number of phase-shift levels. The proposed designs for the single-user case are also extended to the general setup with multiple users among which some are aided by the IRS. Simulation results verify our performance analysis as well as the effectiveness of our proposed designs as compared to various benchmark schemes.

TL;DR: An a posteriori probability (APP) algorithm for CPM is developed based on the classic APP algorithm for channel codes, showing that remarkably good performance can be obtained for some simple systems.
Abstract: Serially concatenated and interleaved continuous phase modulation (CPM) with iterative decoding is investigated. An a posteriori probability (APP) algorithm for CPM is developed based on the classic APP algorithm for channel codes. The system is analyzed through upper bounds on the average bit error probability. For coded and interleaved minimum shift keying, the weight spectrum is computed, resulting in a transfer function bound. This is cumbersome for a general CPM system; instead, only the most significant error events contributing to the weight spectrum are identified. Simulations show that, firstly, these events give a satisfactory view of system performance when equal outer codes are used, and secondly, that remarkably good performance can be obtained for some simple systems. Finally, power spectral densities and bandwidths are computed, allowing for a bandwidth/performanee comparison of different combinations.

TL;DR: New noncoherent sequence detection algorithms for combined demodulation and decoding of coded linear modulations transmitted over additive white Gaussian noise channels, possibly affected by intersymbol interference, are presented.
Abstract: New noncoherent sequence detection algorithms for combined demodulation and decoding of coded linear modulations transmitted over additive white Gaussian noise channels, possibly affected by intersymbol interference, are presented. Optimal sequence detection in the presence of a random rotation of the signal phase, assumed to be constant during the entire transmission, requires a receiver complexity exponentially increasing with the duration of the transmission. Based on proper approximations, simple suboptimal detection schemes based on the Viterbi algorithm are presented, whose performance approaches that of coherent detection. In a companion paper by Colavolpe and Raheli (see ibid., vol.47, no.9, p.1303-7, 1999), noncoherent sequence detection is extended to continuous phase modulations. In the proposed schemes, the tradeoff between complexity and performance is simply controlled by a parameter, referred to as implicit phase memory, and the number of states of a trellis diagram. Besides being realizable, these schemes have the convenient feature of allowing us to remove the constant phase assumption and encompass time-varying phase models. The proposed schemes compare favorably with other solutions previously proposed in the technical literature.
