This paper tackles the problem of user scheduling in satellite content delivery networks with precoding. The clustering process has to consider two crucial and independent characteristics of the user terminals. On the one hand, users belonging to the same group shall have a reduced Euclidean norm be…
The use of multi-antenna transmitters is emerging as an essential technology of the future wireless communication systems. While Zero-Forcing Beamforming (ZFB) has become the most popular low-complexity transmit beamforming design, it has some drawbacks basically related to the effort of "trying" to…
Mutual Information is the metric that is used to perform link adaptation, which allows to achieve rates near capacity. The computation of adaptive transmission modes is achieved by employing the mapping between the Signal to Noise Ratio and the Mutual Information. Due to the high complexity of the c…
Owing to the rapidly increasing traffic demands on satellite connectivity, the current exclusive frequency allocation is becoming obsolete. Instead, aggressive frequency reuse and interference mitigation techniques are promising ideas that both industry and academia are investigating. This paper pro…
This paper evaluates the capacity of weighted circularly convolved FBMC/OQAM systems. A rigorous mathematical model is derived to calculate the increase of capacity that can be obtained thanks to the lattice structure of the modulation and the exploitation of the intrinsic interference. The numerica…
