ComplexBeat: Breathing Rate Estimation from Complex CSI

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Andreas Toftegaard Kristensen, Sitian Li

In this paper, we explore the use of channel state information (CSI) from a WiFi system to estimate the breathing rate of a person in a room. In order to extract WiFi CSI components that are sensitive to breathing, we propose to consider the delay domain c ...

On the relaxed maximum-likelihood blind MIMO channel estimation for orthogonal space-time block codes

Kamran Kalbasi

This paper concerns the maximum-likelihood channel estimation for MIMO systems with orthogonal space-time block codes when the finite alphabet constraint of the signal constellation is relaxed. We study the channel coefficients estimation subspace generate ...

Feedback-Aware Precoding for Millimeter Wave Massive MIMO Systems

Andreas Peter Burg, Reza Ghanaatian Jahromi

Millimeter wave (mmWave) communication is a promising solution for coping with the ever-increasing mobile data traffic because of its large bandwidth. To enable a sufficient link margin, a large antenna array employing directional beamforming, which is ena ...

Towards More Accurate Radio Telescope Images

Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Nezihe Merve Gürel

Radio interferometry usually compensates for high levels of noise in sensor/antenna electronics by throwing data and energy at the problem: observe longer, then store and process it all. We propose instead a method to remove the noise explicitly before ima ...

Throughput Analysis of Large Networks : Spatial Diversity, Beamforming Gain, and Transmission Modes

Serj Haddad

While wired infrastructure constitutes the backbone of most wireless networks, wireless systems appeal the most to the dynamic and rapidly evolving requirements of today's communication systems because of their ease of deployment and mobility, not to menti ...

On the MIMO Capacity for Distributed System under Composite Rayleigh/Rician Fading and Shadowing

José Luis Padilla de la Torre

Wireless channels are commonly affected by short-term fading and long-term fading (shadowing). The shadowing effects must be taken into account also when mobility is present in the wireless scenario. Using a composite fading model, the total channel capaci ...

Digital Synchronization for Symbol-spaced IEEE802.11ad Gigabit mmWave Systems

Andreas Peter Burg, Nicholas Alexander Preyss

A complete digital synchronization architecture for an IEEE 802.11ad compliant 60 GHz receiver is presented. The characteristics of mmWave systems require a holistic view on the problem of parameter estimation, such that not each parameter is dealt with on ...

Integer-forcing Linear Receivers

Michael Christoph Gastpar

Linear receivers are often used to reduce the implementation complexity of multiple-antenna systems. In a traditional linear receiver architecture, the receive antennas are used to separate out the codewords sent by each transmit antenna, which can then be ...

Cooperative Relaying at Finite SNR-Role of Quantize-Map-and-Forward

Christina Fragouli, Ayan Sengupta, I-Hsiang Wang

This paper contributes to the design and analysis of Quantize-Map-and-Forward (QMF) relaying by optimizing its performance for small relay networks. QMF was proved to achieve the capacity of arbitrary networks within a bounded gap, as well as the optimal d ...

Optimizing Quantize-Map-and-Forward in Slow Fading Relay Networks

Christina Fragouli, Ayan Sengupta, I-Hsiang Wang

Quantize-Map-and-Forward (QMF) relaying has been shown to achieve the optimal diversity-multiplexing trade-off (DMT) for the slow fading single-antenna relay channel, regardless of whether the relay is full-duplex or half-duplex. A key reason for the DMT o ...

On the Achievable Rate of Stationary Rayleigh Flat-Fading Channels With Gaussian Inputs

In this work, a discrete-time stationary Rayleigh flat-fading channel with unknown channel state information at transmitter and receiver side is studied. The law of the channel is presumed to be known to the receiver. For independent identically distribute ...

Manifold Sparse Beamforming

Volkan Cevher, Afsaneh Asaei, Baran Gözcü

We consider the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamforming problems where the array covariance matrix is rank deficient. The conventional approach handles such rank-deficiencies via diagonal loading on the covariance matrix. In this settin ...
