this paper investigates the multi-band ofdm (mb-ofdm) based physical (phy) layer proposal for ieee 802.15.3a working group on short-range high data-rate ultra-wide-band (uwb) communications. an overview of the mb-ofdm phy layer architecture with its various parameters is presented and the optimal choice of critical parameters is discussed. next, we derive the theoretical un-coded bit error rate...

Multi-user multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system has been attracting much attention due to its high spectrum efficiency. Nonlinear MIMO signal detection methods with less computational complexity have been widely studied for single-user MIMO systems. In this paper, we investigate how a lattice reduction (LR)-aided detection and a maximum likelihood detection (MLD) employing the QR decompositio...

This paper is concerned with multi-user detection techniques for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing – interleave division multiple access (OFDM-IDMA) and IDMA with cyclic prefix (IDMACP). These two schemes have attractive features such as low-cost multi-user detection/equalization and flexible rate adaptation. We will show that significant performance improvement (i.e., the so-called mu...

In this paper, we investigate single-carrier (SC) and multi-carrier IDMA schemes with cyclic prefixing (CP) and zero padding (ZP) techniques. These schemes are called SC-IDMA-CP, SC-IDMA-ZP, orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM)-IDMA-CP and OFDM-IDMA-ZP, respectively. By exploiting the circulant property of channel matrices, the multi-user detection of these schemes can be efficient...

A new multiple access scheme using Multi-Symbol Encapsulated Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MSE-OFDM) is proposed. This is basically a time division multiple access (TDMA) technique utilizing the MSE-OFDM. The Bit Error Rate (BER) performance of the TDMA system using conventional OFDM is slightly better than that of the proposed system. This weakness is compensated as the proposed ...

This paper deals with the analysis and design of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing interleavedivision multiple-access (OFDM-IDMA). We begin with the analysis of the information-theoretical advantages of non-orthogonal transmission schemes in fading multiple-access channels. We then turn attention to practical design issues. A signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) evolution technique is developed...

This paper Investigates the performance of cellular networks employing multi-user MIMO transmission using dirty paper and block-diagonalization precoding. Considers the downlink of an OFDM-based LTE compliant multi-carrier system in which the users provide channel state information (CSI) to the base station via limited capacity feedback links. With limited feedback, residual interference betwee...

Visible light communication (VLC) has been seeking much attention in recent years due to its high bandwidth, low cost, and ease of implementation. VLC can be used for illumination as well at the same time. Light emitting diode (LED) acts a transmitter data transmission, photo detector is on receiver side. Intensity Modulation (IM) converts an electrical signal into optical signal, where only re...
