While Cramér-Rao lower bound is an important metric in sensing functions in integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) designs, its optimization usually involves a computationally expensive solution such as semidefinite relaxation. In this paper, we aim to develop a low-complexity yet efficient al…
Joint communications and sensing (JCAS) is expected to be a crucial technology for future wireless systems. This paper investigates beamforming design for a multi-user multi-target JCAS system to ensure fairness and balance between communications and sensing performance. We jointly optimize the tran…
Hybrid beamforming (HBF) is a key enabler for millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications systems, but HBF optimizations are often non-convex and of large dimension. In this paper, we propose an efficient deep unfolding-based HBF scheme, referred to as ManNet-HBF, that approximately maximizes the system…
This paper considers joint user identification and channel estimation (JUICE) in grant-free access with a clustered user activity pattern. In particular, we address the JUICE in massive machine-type communications (mMTC) network under correlated Rayleigh fading channels with unknown channel covarian…
We propose a new power amplifier (PA) behavioral modeling approach, to characterize and compensate for the signal quality degrading effects induced by a PA with a machine learning (ML) aided piece-wise (PW) modeling approach. Instead of using a single pruned Volterra model, we use multiple small-siz…
Joint user identification and channel estimation (JUICE) is a main challenge in grant-free massive machine-type communications (mMTC). The sparse pattern in users’ activity allows to solve the JUICE as a compressed sensing problem in a multiple measurement vector (MMV) setup. This paper addresses th…
We consider uplink multiuser wireless communications systems, where the base station (BS) receiver is equipped with a large-scale antenna array and resolution adaptive analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The aim is to maximize the energy efficiency (EE) at the BS subject to constraints on the users…
Beamforming design for downlink coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission of dense small cell networks is considered. The goal is to maximize the weighted sum rate of the system subject to constraints on maximum transmit power at macro cell and small cell base stations (BSs). Here we focus on the…
A joint beamforming and remote radio head (RRH)-user association design for downlink of cloud radio access networks (CRANs) is considered. The aim is to maximize the system energy efficiency subject to constraints on users' quality-of-service, capacity of front haul links and transmit power. Differe…
Degrees of freedom (DoF) is studied in the downlink of a heterogenous wireless network modeled as a two-layered interference network. The first layer of the interference network is the backhaul layer between macro base stations (MBs) and small cell base stations (SBs), which is modeled as a Wyner ty…
This paper considers a multicell downlink channel in which multiple base stations (BSs) cooperatively serve users by jointly precoding shared data transported from a central processor over limited-capacity backhaul links. We jointly design the beamformers and BS-user link selection so as to maximize…
The challenges with full-duplex transceiver (FD) implementation and transmission in small area radio communication systems are introduced. The main challenge in the FD transceiver design is the self-interference (SI). A three-stage SI cancellation is used for SI mitigation. Analog SI isolation is pe…
