Improved SOR signal detection algorithm in massive MIMO-TRDMA systems by Mingyue WANG, Fangwei LI, Xiaorong JING, Haibo ZHANG, Junzhou XIONG

“…In the massive multi-input multi-output time-reversal division multiple access (MIMO-TRDMA) systems, the traditional linear minimum mean square error (MMSE) algorithm achieved approximately the best performance.However, the matrix inversion of the MMSE algorithm was too complicated to ensure real-time processing of signal detection.To solve this problem, an improved successive over-relaxation (SOR) signal detection optimization algorithm was proposed.The proposed algorithm reasonably upgraded the solution of linear equations to prevent the complicated calculation of matrix inversion.Meanwhile, the steepest descent idea was used to provide an effective search direction for the SOR signal detection algorithm, achieving a rapid convergence rate and stronger inspection performance.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has the similar best performance with fewer update times compared with the traditional MMSE algorithm, and the calculation complexity is reduced from O(M³)to O(²).…”

Multiple targets localization via compressive sensing from mere connectivity by Lei LIU, Jian-jun ZHANG, Yang LU, Xing WEI, Jiang-hong HAN

“…A multiple targets localization method was proposed from mere connectivity,and the multiple targets posi-tioning problem was converted to sparse vector resolving by compressive sensing theory,which was applied to the indoor localization of intensive references distribution.The connectivity to the references was collected as the only measurement data,and targets locations were figured out by minimum l₁-norm algorithm.When measurement data was compressed tol 1 bit,the fixed point iteration algorithm combined with semi-definite relax was proposed to figure out targets locations.As for the simulation results,compared with MDS-MAP,DV-Hop and RSS-CS algorithms,the average location error is less than 1 grid by the mere connectivity of N -bit and 1-bit quantization CS localization,of which the occupied bit quan-tity are reduced to less than 4 times and 16 times of RSS localization observation value respectively.…”

Beamforming design for energy-constrained full-duplex two-way relaying system by Wei WANG, Liyuan AN, Guoan ZHANG, Shibing ZHANG

“…A beamforming design was proposed under simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) protocol.A utility optimization problem was considered aiming to maximize the harvested energy by jointly optimizing the beamforming matrix,the power splitting ratio at the relay and the transmit powers at the sources.Since the formulated joint optimization problem was nonconvex,it was difficult or even intractable to obtain the global optimal solution.To overcome this issue,the objective problem into three subproblems was decoupled which could be solved by the proposed semidefinite relaxation technique and the derived constraints activation solution,respectively.The solution was finally obtained with the proposed convergent iterative algorithm.Simulation results show that the proposed joint optimization scheme achieves the optimal performance.Compared with the traditional half-duplex (HD) algorithm,the proposed algorithm can obtain 2~3 times energy harvesting (EH) efficiency improvement,while the computational complexity increases slightly.…”
