    The Effect of Channel Models on Compressed Sensing Based Uwb Channel Estimation
    (IEEE, 2011) Başaran, Mehmet; Erküçük, Serhat; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Ultra-wideband (UWB) multipath channels are assumed to have a sparse structure as the received consecutive pulses arrive with a considerable time delay and can be resolved individually at the receiver. Due to this sparse structure there has been a significant amount of interest in applying the compressive sensing (CS) theory to UWB channel estimation. There are various implementations of the CS theory for the UWB channel estimation based on the assumption that the UWB channels are sparse. However the sparsity of a UWB channel mainly depends on the channel environment. Motivated by this in this study we investigate the effect of UWB channel environments on the CS based UWB channel estimation. Particularly we consider the standardized IEEE 802.15.4a UWB channel models and study the channel estimation performance from a practical implementation point of view. The study shows that while UWB channel models for residential environments (e. g. CM1 and CM2) exhibit a sparse structure yielding a reasonable channel estimation performance channel models for industrial environments (e. g. CM8) may not be treated as having a sparse structure due to multipaths arriving densely. The results of this study are important as it determines the suitability of different channel models to be used with the CS theory.

    Effect of Inter-Block Region on Compressed Sensing Based Channel Estimation in Tds-Ofdm Systems
    (IEEE, 2016) Başaran, Mehmet; Erküçük, Serhat; Şenol, Habib; Cirpan, Hakan Ali
    Time domain synchronous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (TDS-OFDM) is the basis technology for digital television standard (DTV) employed in some countries thanks to its high spectral efficiency when compared to traditional cyclic prefix OFDM. Moreover it does not require pilot usage in frequency domain channel estimation. Instead of data usage as cyclic prefix pseudo-noise (PN) sequences are transmitted in guard intervals. Due to interference from the previous OFDM data symbol the received signal in guard interval can be decomposed into a small-sized signal that contains only PN sequences utilizing the inter-block-interference (IBI)-free region in the convolution matrix. Due to sparsity multipath fading channel can be obtained by the application of compressed sensing (CS) technique to reconstruct the high-dimensional sparse channel from the decreased-size of received signal through the known PN sequence matrix. In this study the effect of the size of IBI-free region on CS and Bayesian CS (BCS) based channel estimation is investigated. Accordingly reconstruction error performances of basis pursuit (BP) and BCS are compared. Simulation results show that the channel estimation can be improved by trading-off the length of the IBI-free region. However an increase in IBI-free region leads to decreased energy efficiency at both the transmitter and receiver side.

    Joint Communication and Computing Resource Allocation in 5g Cloud Radio Access Networks
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2019) Ferdouse, Lilatul; Anpalagan, Alagan; Erküçük, Serhat
    Cloud-radio access network (C-RAN) is regarded as a promising solution to manage heterogeneity and scalability of future wireless networks. The centralized cooperative resource allocation and interference cancellation methods in C-RAN significantly reduce the interference levels to provide high data rates. However, the centralized solution is not scalable due to the dense deployment of small cells with fractional frequency reuse, causing severe inter-tier and inter-cell interference turning the resource allocation and user association into a more challenging problem. In this paper, we investigate joint communication and computing resource allocation along with user association, and baseband unit (BBU) and remote radio head (RRH) mapping in C-RANs. We initially establish a queueing model in C-RAN, followed by formulation of two optimization problems for communication [e.g., resource blocks (RBs) and power] and computing [e.g., virtual machines (VMs)] resources allocation with the aim to minimize mean response time. User association along with the RB allocation, interference, and queueing stability constraints are considered in the communication resource optimization problem. The computing resource optimization problem considers BBU-RRH mapping and VM allocation for small cells, constrained to BBU server capacity and queueing stability. To solve the communication and computing resource optimization problem, we propose a joint resource allocation solution that considers a double-sided auction based distributed resource allocation (DS-ADRA) method, where small cell base stations and users jointly participate using the concept of auction theory. The proposed method is evaluated via simulations by considering the effect of bandwidth utilization percentage, signal-to-interference ratio threshold value and the number of users. The results show that the proposed method can be successfully implemented for 5G C-RANs.

    Channel Estimation for TDS-OFDM Systems in Rapidly Time-Varying Mobile Channels
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Basaran,M.; Şenol,H.; Erküçük,S.; Çirpan,H.A.
    This paper explores the performance of time-domain synchronous orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (TDS-OFDM) systems operated under rapidly time-varying mobile channels. Since a rapidly time-varying channel contains more unknown channel coefficients than the number of observations, the mobile channel can conveniently be modeled with the discrete Legendre polynomial basis expansion model to reduce the number of unknowns. The linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) estimate can be exploited for channel estimation on inter-block-interference-free received signal samples owing to transmitting pseudo-noise (PN) sequences. In conventional TDS-OFDM systems, the channel estimation performance is limited due to estimating channel responses only from the beginning part of the channel. Therefore, a new system model named "partitioned TDS-OFDM system" is proposed to improve the system performance by inserting multiple PN sequences to the middle and end parts of the channel as well. In addition to providing the reconstruction error performance, Bayesian Cramer-Rao lower bound is derived analytically. Also, the LMMSE-based symbol detection is employed. To alleviate the negative effects of inter-carrier-interference (ICI) occuring in mobile channels, ICI cancellation is applied to enhance the detection performance. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed TDS-OFDM system is superior to the conventional system and its corresponding performance is able to approach the achievable lower performance bound. © 2018 IEEE.

    Comparison of Compressed Sensing Based Algorithms for Sparse Signal Reconstruction
    (IEEE, 2016) Çelik, Safa; Başaran, Mehmet; Erküçük, Serhat; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Compressed sensing theory shows that any signal which is defined as sparse in a given domain can be reconstructed using fewer linear projections instead of using all Nyquist-rate samples. In this paper we investigate basis pursuit matching pursuit orthogonal matching pursuit and compressive sampling matching pursuit algorithms which are basic compressed sensing based algorithms and present performance curves in terms of mean squared error for various parameters including signal-tonoise ratio sparsity and number of measurements with regard to mean squared error. In addition accuracy of estimation performances has been supported with theoretical lower bounds (Cramer-Rao lower bound and deterministic lower mean squared error). Considering estimation performances compressive sampling matching pursuit yields the best results unless the signal has a non-sparse structure.

    Detection of Multiple Primary Systems Using Daa Uwb-Irs
    (IEEE, 2009) Erküçük, Serhat; Lampe, Lutz; Schober, Robert
    Underlay ultra wideband (UWB) systems have to be able to detect the presence of primary systems operating in the same band for detect-and-avoid (DAA) operation. In this paper the performances of joint and independent detection of multiple primary systems are investigated assuming that the primary systems are potentially dependent (e.g. frequency division duplex uplink-downlink communications). Joint detection is performed based on generating the maximum a posteriori (MAP) decision variables at the receiver where some bias terms are used with these variables in order to achieve a desired trade-off between the detection and false alarm probabilities. Independent detection is performed based on the Neyman-Pearson (NP) test which optimizes system threshold values individually in order to achieve the best detection probability for a given false alarm probability value. When the two detection schemes are compared it is shown that the gain of joint detection depends on the joint system activity values and the considered receiver operating characteristic (ROC) region where the complementary ROC curves illustrate the trade-off between missdetection and false alarm probabilities.

    Joint Wavelet-Based Spectrum Sensing and Fbmc Modulation for Cognitive Mmwave Small Cell Networks
    (Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2016) Hosseini, Haleh; Anpalagan, Alagan; Raahemifar, Kaamran; Erküçük, Serhat; Habib, Salman
    Millimetre-wave (mmWave) 5G communications is an emerging technology to enhance the capacity of existing systems by thousand-fold improvement. Heterogeneous networks employing densely distributed small cells can optimise the available coverage and throughput of 5G systems. Efficiently utilising the spectrum bands by small cells is one of the approaches that will considerably increase the available data rate and capacity of the heterogeneous networks. This challenging task can be achieved by spectrum sensing capability of cognitive radios and new modulation techniques for data transmission. In this study a wavelet-based filter bank is proposed for spectrum sensing and modulation in 5G heterogeneous networks. The proposed technique can mitigate the spectral leakage and interference by adapting the subcarriers according to cognitive information provided by wavelet packet based spectrum sensing (WPSS) and lowering sidelobes using wavelet-based filter bank multicarrier modulation. The performance improvement of WPSS compared with Fourier-based spectrum sensing is verified in terms of power spectral density comparison and probabilities of detection and false alarm. Meanwhile the bit error rate performance demonstrates the superiority of the proposed wavelet-based system compared with its Fourier-based counterpart over the 60 GHz mmWave channel.

    Performance of Ieee 802.15.4a Systems in the Presence of Narrowband Interference
    (IEEE, 2011) Fındıklı, Çağlar; Erküçük, Serhat; Çelebi, Mehmet Ertuğrul
    The regulatory agencies in Europe and Japan require the implementation of avoidance techniques in some bands to reduce interference to licensed systems. Accordingly ultra-wideband impulse radio (UWB-IR) based Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) standard IEEE 802.15.4a has suggested using linear combination of pulses to reduce interference to coexisting primary systems. In this paper we consider the implementation of linear combination of pulses for a peaceful coexistence and assess the UWB-IR system performance in the presence of an active narrowband system. For that we study the possible transmitter and receiver structures that can be adapted for the physical layer of the IEEE 802.15.4a standard. The study shows that while the bit-error rate (BER) performances of coherent and noncoherent receiving structures may be slightly degraded with the use of linear combination of pulses when there is no active primary system the performances can be significantly improved with appropriate filtering techniques at the receiver when the primary system is active.

    Busy Tone Based Coexistence Algorithm for Wran and Wlan Systems in Tv White Space
    (Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2018) Karatalay, Onur; Erküçük, Serhat; Baykaş, Tunçer
    TV White Space (TVWS) refers to frequency band reserved only for licensed terrestrial TV broadcasting and is opened to unlicensed use under regulatory conditions. While regulations protect licensed systems from interference interference among unlicensed systems is left mainly to manufacturers. Consequently there is a need to develop new coexistence approaches between TVWS networks. Busy tone broadcasting is a coexistence method which can be used by TVWS networks to announce the selected frequency band is occupied. In this paper a busy tone based coexistence algorithm is proposed for IEEE 802.11af and IEEE 802.22 networks and analyzed by considering different client distributions experiencing log-normal shadowing where the exact interfering packet rate and successful packet transmission rate expressions are obtained and validated by simulations for different scenarios. The results show that with the proposed coexistence approach a WLAN can reliably detect the busy tone signal to change its frequency band and can reduce interference to WRAN. Even if there is no available frequency band for the WLAN the WRAN still maintains its enhanced successful packet transmission performance. The deployment of the proposed algorithm is important for successful coexistence between cognitive wireless networks where interference is not regulated such as in TVWS bands.

    Data-Aided Autoregressive Sparse Channel Tracking for Ofdm Systems
    (IEEE, 2016) Buyuksar, Ayse Betul; Şenol, Habib; Erküçük, Serhat; Cirpan, Hakan Ali
    In order to meet future communication system requirements channel estimation over fast fading and frequency selective channels is crucial. In this paper Space Alternated Generalized Expectation Maximization Maximum a Posteriori (SAGE-MAP) based channel estimation algorithm is proposed for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems for Autoregressive (AR) modeled time-varying sparse channels. Also an initialization algorithm has been developed from the widely used sparse approximation algorithm Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP) since the performance of SAGE algorithm strictly depends on initialization. The results show that multipath delay positions can be tracked successfully for every time instant using the proposed SAGE-MAP based approach.
