EU FP7 INFSO-ICT-247223 ARTIST4G, D1.4 Interference Avoidance Techniques and System Design
- 2012
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- In this document we provide performance assessments of the most promising techniques that were studied within Work Package 1 (WP1) of the ARTIST4G project related to interference avoidance. The results are based on evolved techniques that were identified and classified in deliverable D1.1 and investigated in deliverable D1.2 and D1.3, as well as novel alternative techniques that are introduced and assessed in this document.Based on the insights from these performance results we provide a synthetic perspective over the most promising solutions for interference avoidance. We argue that these solutions can reach a satisfactory trade-off in terms of performance benefits vs complexity of implementation. Some of these techniques are also identified as complementary techniques towards an integrated interference avoidance concept.

Frequency Allocation in Non-Coherent Joint Transmission CoMP Networks
- 2014
-
In: 2014 IEEE International Conference on Communications Workshops, ICC 2014. - 9781479946402 ; , s. 610-615
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper, we study the problem of joint transmission (JT) in coordinated multipoint (CoMP) networks from a new point of view where the system performance is optimized via frequency allocation for 5G small cells. Moreover, we investigate the implementation of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ), as an efficient scheme facing the feedback load problem in CoMP setups. The results are obtained for the cases with slow and fast fading conditions. Considering the channel state information (CSI) only at the receiver, we show that at low and medium signal to noise ratios (SNRs) sharing the frequency resources between users outperforms the case when the frequency resources are dedicated under non-coherent JT-CoMP setting. We find that the maximum long term throughput is achieved by either sharing the entire frequency resources between the users or allocating each user in a disjoint dedicated frequency resource. These extreme cases show the best performance in the SNR region of interest. Finally, as demonstrated analytically and numerically, HARQ feedback increases the long term throughput and reduces the outage probability substantially, with an affordable average delay.

Partial joint processing for frequency selective channels
- 2010
-
In: IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference. - 1550-2252. - 9781424435746
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper, we consider a static cluster of base stations where joint processing is allowed in the downlink. The partial joint processing scheme is a user-centric approach where subclusters or active sets of base stations are dynamically defined for each user in the cluster. In frequency selective channels, the definition of the subclusters or active set thresholding of base stations can be frequency adaptive (per resource block) or non-adaptive (averaged over all the resource blocks). Frequency adaptive thresholding improves the average sum-rate of the cluster, but at the cost of an increased user data interbase information exchange with respect to the non-adaptive frequency thresholding case. On the other hand, the channel state information available at the transmitter side to design the beamforming matrix is very limited and rank deficiency problems arise for low values of active set thresholding and users located close to the base station. To solve this problem, an algorithm is proposed that defines a cooperation area over the cluster where the partial joint processing scheme can be performed, frequency adaptive or non-adaptive, for a given active set threshold value.

EU FP7 INFSO-ICT-317669 METIS, D4.2 Final report on trade-off investigations
- 2014
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Research activities in METIS WP4 include several aspects related to the network-level of future wireless communication networks. Thereby, a large variety of scenarios is considered and solutions are proposed to serve the needs envisioned for the year 2020 and beyond. This document provides vital findings about several trade-offs that need to be leveraged when designing future network-level solutions. In more detail, it elaborates on the following trade-offs:• Complexity vs. Performance improvement• Centralized vs. Decentralized• Long time-scale vs. Short time-scale• Information Interflow vs. Throughput/Mobility enhancement• Energy Efficiency vs. Network Coverage and CapacityOutlining the advantages and disadvantages in each trade-off, this document serves as a guideline for the application of different network-level solutions in different situations and therefore greatly assists in the design of future communication network architectures.

Resource and Mobility Management in the Network Layer of 5G Cellular Ultra-Dense Networks
- 2017
-
In: IEEE Communications Magazine. - 0163-6804 .- 1558-1896. ; 55:6, s. 162-169
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The provision of very high capacity is one of the big challenges of the 5G cellular technology. This challenge will not be met using traditional approaches like increasing spectral efficiency and bandwidth, as witnessed in previous technology generations. Cell densification will play a major role thanks to its ability to increase the spatial reuse of the available resources. However, this solution is accompanied by some additional management challenges. In this article, we analyze and present the most promising solutions identified in the METIS project for the most relevant network layer challenges of cell densification: resource, interference and mobility management.

EU FP7 INFSO-ICT-317669 METIS, D3.1 Positioning of multi-node/multi-antenna technologies
- 2013
-
Reports (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This document describes the research activity in multi-node/multi-antenna technologies within METIS and positions it with respect to the state-of-the-art in the academic literature and in the standardization bodies. Based on the state-of-the-art and as well as on the METIS objectives,we set the research objectives and we group the different activities (or technology components) into research clusters with similar research objectives. The technologycomponents and the research objectives have been set to achieve an ambidextrous purpose. On one side we aim at providing the METIS system with those technological components that are a natural but non-trivial evolution of 4G. On the other side, we aim at seeking for disruptivetechnologies that could radically change 5G with respect to 4G. Moreover, we mapped the different technology components to METIS’ other activities and to the overall goals of theproject.
