DFT-spread OTFS-NOMA for downlink integrated positioning and communication

In this article, a non-orthogonal multiple-access (NOMA) transmission system that incorporates discrete Fourier transform (DFT) spread orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) modulation is proposed for the downlink integrated positioning and communication (IPAC). This system is designed to decrease the Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) within the OTFS-NOMA system while simultaneously serving both communication user (CU) and positioning user (PU) within the same time-frequency resources. Firstly, we demonstrate the applicability of the proposed DFT-spread OTFS-NOMA (DFT-s-OTFS-NOMA) system for downlink transmission. It efficiently serves both the CU and PU concurrently within the same time and frequency resources, thereby increasing spectrum utilization. Subsequently, we develop a two-stage parameter estimation algorithm focusing on accurate positioning parameter estimation for PU and precise channel estimation for CU. Then, the position of the PU is estimated using the time of arrival (TOA) model and the linear least squares (LLS) approach. Simulation demonstrates a 9 dB PAPR reduction in the proposed system compared to the existing OTFS-NOMA system. Additionally, the proposed two-stage positioning method for the PU achieves centimeter-level accuracy in position estimation and near millimeter-per-second-level accuracy in velocity estimation. What is more, the performance of channel estimation and symbol detection, aided by the PU signal in the DFT-s-OTFS-NOMA system, demonstrates resilience against Doppler effects without the need for reliance on pilots. This ensures sustained an effective Bit Error Rate (BER) even in time-variant high mobility scenarios.

Visible light communication optical FBMC-OQAM PAPR reduction using FHT-PTR algorithm for beyond 5G system

Abstract This paper addresses the reduction of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in optical filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) with offset quadrature amplitude modulation (OQAM) using a fast Hadamard transform (FHT) centered partial transmit sequence (PTS) algorithm. High PAPR in FBMC-OQAM systems can cause non-linear distortions in optical transmitters, such as LEDs, leading to signal degradation. The proposed FHT-PTS algorithm effectively mitigates this issue by dividing the data symbols into disjoint subsets, applying phase rotations, and performing inverse FHT to generate multiple candidate sequences. The sequence with the lowest PAPR is selected for transmission. This technique ensures significant PAPR reduction while maintaining acceptable bit error rate (BER) performance. Simulation results demonstrate that the FHT-PTS algorithm achieves substantial PAPR reduction gain of 3 dB–6 dB compared to conventional PTS and other existing methods. The power spectrum density (PSD) analysis shows that the spectral efficiency of the FBMC-OQAM system is preserved, with minimal out-of-band emissions. The FHT operations significantly reduce the complexity compared to traditional Fourier transform-based methods, making the algorithm more feasible for real-time applications.

A Low-complex OFDM based DCO-OTFS modulation for VLC systems

Visible Light Communication (VLC) has emerged as a promising alternative for indoor and vehicular wireless communication, offering several advantages over traditional radio frequency (RF) technology. With the adoption of optical-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (O-OFDM) schemes, visible light communication (VLC) has become more robust and adaptable in indoor, outdoor, vehicular, and underwear communications. Recently, an orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation technique has evolved with better performance than OFDM. The recent finding in the context of VLC shows that the OTFS technique shows remarkable advantages over conventional OFDM techniques except for the modem design complexity. This work introduces a low-complexity direct current-biased optical OTFS (DCO-OTFS) modulation based on OFDM. This paper evaluates the proposed system’s performance through simulations, providing evidence of its bit-error-rate (BER), peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), and complexity behavior. Comparative assessments against the DCO-OFDM system are presented to understand the advantages of the low-complex DCO-OTFS system. The findings reveal that the proposed system not only provides low computational complexity in modem design but also maintains superior error performance, with a notable 10 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gain over DCO-OFDM along with a superior PAPR, making it a commendable choice for VLC applications.

Theoretical probability distribution model and reduction techniques based on an interleaved DFT spread for PAPR in a digital sub-carrier multiplexing system

This paper presents a theoretical probability distribution model for peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in the digital sub-carrier multiplexing (DSCM) system, which has not previously been proposed in the literature. To reduce PAPR, an interleaved discrete Fourier transform spread DSCM (I-DFT-S-DSCM) scheme is proposed, which introduces reversible correlations between subcarriers. To investigate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes, a 64-GBaud 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (16-QAM) DSCM system with 4, 8, and 16 sub-carriers was constructed. In the digital domain, the results demonstrate that the proposed theoretical PAPR probability distribution model exhibits mean squared errors (MSE) below 10−5 for the observed and model-predicted complementary cumulative distribution functions (CCDF) in both DSCM and I-DFT-S-DSCM schemes. Regarding PAPR reduction, the I-DFT-S-DSCM scheme demonstrated a reduction in PAPR of up to 1.44 dB compared to the conventional DSCM scheme. To further investigate the impact of PAPR on the bit error rate (BER) performance of the DSCM system, the I-DFT-S-DSCM scheme is implemented with 8 subcarriers transmitted over a 100-km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF). A comparative analysis with DSCM indicates that I-DFT-S-DSCM achieves a PAPR reduction of approximately 1.1 dB and improves receiver sensitivity by approximately 0.7 dB at a 7% hard-decision forward error correction (HD-FEC) threshold, in 100-km single-mode fiber SSMF transmissions.

The scheme for OFDM data first after 3-dimensional (3D) Brownian motion rotational permutation, and then according to the time zone and band number (TZBN) scrambling to achieve the effect of further data perturbation, which through the SHA-256 algorithm and 6-dimensional (6D) hyperchaotic processing to obtain the chaotic keys to enhance the security. After simulation experiment of 16QAM CO-OFDM security system transmitting over 80 km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF) at the symbol rate of 30 Gbaud, it is shown that the encryption scheme can guarantee that the authorized user receives valid data and the eavesdropper obtains the information with the BER of about 0.5. The key space of the scheme is about 2.88×10194, which can effectively resist attacks such as violent attacks and chosen plaintext attacks. And the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) can be reduced by about 1.09 dB while the encryption process.

Reduce PAPR in Filtered-CPOFDM using Hybrid Method System

5G multicarrier waveform Filtered Cyclic Prefix Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (F-CPOFDM) allows for high data speeds and increases in spectrum efficiency. The main drawback of F-CPOFDM is its high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), a common element of all multicarrier modulation schemes. In this research is investigate the implementation of a Hybrid strategy to reduce the peak to average power ratio (PAPR) in a F-CPOFDM system and evaluated the impact of employing a Hybrid Technique with Group Codeword Shift (GCS), Median Codeword Shift, Selective Codeword Shift (SCS), and Conventional F-CPOFDM on the reduction of peak to average power ratio (PAPR) in CP-OFDM. The novelty of this research is GCS method integration with WHT Precoding technique for reduce PAPR. Simulation results show that compared to traditional Filtered-CPOFDM, the GCS-WHT method reduces peak PAPR by 59.46 %, while the SCS- method reduces it by 32.43 % and the MCS-WHT method reduces it by 31.53%. Compare to the non-hybrid technique, the GCS only reduce 45.95%, while for SCS and MCS reduce 19.82% and 23.42% respectively. From the results, shows that Hybrid method is better performance compare with non-hybrid method.

A combination of DST precoder and ICF based-methods for PAPR suppression in OFDM signal

Abstract One well-known demerit of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is its high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) which limits the efficiency of high-power amplifier (HPA) and also destroys its bit error rate (BER) performance. Hence, a method based on grouping of discrete sine transform (DST) precoder and iterative clipping and filtering (ICF) is proposed to reduce PAPR in this article. The DST precoder reduces PAPR to certain level by changing phase of the signal. Moreover, the ICF technique is also implemented in DST based-OFDM signal for additional minimization of PAPR. Therefore, the proposed method (DST-ICF) preserves BER performance also from other existing methods. At complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) = 10−3, the simulation results indicate the proposed technique that minimizes PAPR with iteration values (I = 1, I = 2, and I = 3) to 6.37 dB, 5.29 dB, and 4.81 dB respectively. Moreover, at same BER, the E b /N 0 of proposed technique with iteration value (I = 3) is achieved by 9.75 dB for quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK).

Performance Analysis of Hybrid Optical OFDM Schemes in terms of PAPR, BER and Spectral Efficiency using Various PAPR Reduction Methods

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is an extremely important technique for transmitting data in both optical wireless and optical fiber communication. Optical wireless systems are limited to transmitting real and positive values to the optical transmitter, since they rely only on the intensity of a signal to convey information. Consequently, traditional OFDM is not suitable for direct implementation in optical systems. Various altered OFDM schemes have been examined to counteract multipath distortion, such as DC-biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM), asymmetrically clipped optical OFDM (ACO-OFDM), asymmetrically clipped DC biased optical OFDM (ADO-OFDM) and layered asymmetrically-clipped optical OFDM (LACO-OFDM) technique to improve the bit error rate (BER) performance and spectral efficiency of optical system. This article explores ways for reducing Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). A mathematical model is formulated to account for clipping and Selective Mapping (SLM), as well as channel noise, in all of these approaches for received signal. LACO-OFDM has been determined to be a superior option when compared to other techniques. LACO-OFDM, a recently developed technique, demonstrates excellent performance in terms of PAPR, BER, and spectral efficiency. The simulation results demonstrate that the LACO-OFDM approach has greatly enhanced the spectral efficiency in comparison to previous approaches.

Golay complementary sequence and constant envelope orthogonal frequency‐division multiplexing‐based for integrated sensing and communication with mutual information analysis

AbstractThe design of waveforms plays a critical role in integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems. An ISAC waveform with a 0dB peak‐to‐average power ratio (PAPR) is designed by combining a Golay complementary sequence with a constant envelope orthogonal frequency‐division multiplexing. By adjusting the phase modulation parameters, this waveform allows for a trade‐offs between communication and sensing capabilities. The authors focus on several key performance metrics for the proposed ISAC waveform, notably using mutual information as a holistic performance indicator to assess both sensing and communication effectiveness. Through extensive numerical simulations, the authors demonstrate that the ISAC waveform significantly enhances detection probability compared to traditional phase‐modulated waveforms. The findings suggest that this approach is beneficial for designing low PAPR phase‐modulated ISAC waveforms, enhancing both the functionality and efficiency of ISAC systems.

Joint PAPR reduction and channel estimation in low-complexity VLC systems

In recent times, there has been a surge in interest surrounding visible light communication (VLC) as a compelling adjunct to radio frequency (RF) technology. This enthusiasm stems from deployments showcasing its efficacy in high-speed data transmission, characterized by low complexity, robust security, and high reliability. Among the variants of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), direct current-biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM) stands out in the realm of VLC systems, owing to its ability to furnish rapid data provisioning. However, a significant drawback of selective mapping (SLM) based DCO-OFDM transceivers lies in its computational complexity and practical implementation challenges. To address this limitation, this paper presents a modified SLM technique termed selective phase modulation (SPM) aimed at mitigating the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in the transmitter section while simplifying the data decoding process at the receiver end. The SPM method utilizes a phase modulation and demodulation process based on clusters and assisted by pilot signals, streamlining the transceiver architecture. The SPM methodology offers reduced computational complexity at the transmitter by selectively applying phase sequences to data, circumventing the necessity for side information (SI) transmission and SI estimation at the receiver with a known pilot symbol inserted in the data. This dual-functionality mechanism not only achieves complexity reduction but also facilitates channel estimation at the receiver for proper data recovery. Based on complexity analysis and simulation outcomes, the computational complexity reduction strategy outperforms the conventional selective mapping (CSLM) technique, VLC-based pilot-assisted PAPR reduction systems, and embedded coded modulation (ECM). This allows for smooth incorporation of this technology into future VLC systems.

Physical layer security enhanced scheme based on joint encryption of DNA and RNA data perturbation in CO-OFDM system

—In the work, we propose a new chaotic encryption algorithm for optical physical layer security enhanced in coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) systems. The proposed algorithm adopts the six-dimensional (6D) hyperchaotic to achieve the generation of key sequences, which can effectively improve the unpredictability and security of the system. The encryption scheme includes two steps, first, the binary sequence is disturbed by DNA and RNA two-stage encoding and RNA mutation, and then the initial encrypted data is injected into the algorithm module with two-dimensional continuous chaotic mapping (2D-SCL) and Brownian motion to scramble successively. Simulations in a 16QAM CO-OFDM system at a symbol rate of 30 Gbaud over 80 km of standard single-mode fiber (SSMF) show that a legitimate user is able to successfully decrypt the received signals, and an illegal eavesdropper obtains a useless signal with a bit error rate (BER) of about 0.5. The scheme can tolerate very small deviations and has a key space of approximately 10294, which can effectively withstand illegal attacks. And the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) can be reduced by about 1.01 dB.

A Developed Polar Coded Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing Based on Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation

Due to the tremendous development in the wireless communication field and the wide requirements of current generations, such as high data rates, extremely low power consumption, and high performance, it is necessary to think about techniques and methods that present improvement to meet the growing requirements. The introduction of the Generalized Frequency Division Multiplexing (GFDM) technique was one of the proposed methods; it is one of the candidate schemes for the current generations and beyond. GFDM was presented as an improved method over other multiplexing techniques, as it provided an improvement in the field of Out Of Band (OOB) and Peak Average Power Ratio (PAPR). At the same time, it provided a lower performance in BER with respect to SNR. In this paper, methods of enhancement were presented based on Matlab to improve the performance of the GFDM system, which was improved by adding a coding system based on Polar Coding (PC). The proposed method is presented to improve the performance of GFDM by using the Genetic Algorithm (GA) to improve the performance of the Pulse shaping Filter (PSF) in GFDM. The channel estimation is accomplished by means of the LS method, and the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based on feed-forward backpropagation is used to enhance the estimation process. The proposed Genetic Algorithm Artificial Neural Network Polar Code Interleaver GFDM (GNPI-GFDM) presents an enhancement over the traditional GFDM of more than 3.5dB at BER=10-4over the Rayleigh fading channel

Fast Generation of Low PAPR and Low Sidelobe Noise Waveform

Noise radar waveform, as an important waveform in the field of low-probability-of-intercept radars, has been widely studied. However, the general noise waveform has a high peak average power ratio (PAPR), which leads to a reduction of signal-to-noise ratio. Thus, it is necessary to control the noise waveform PAPR to a suitable range. In this paper, the PAPR value reduction problem of low sidelobe noise waveform is studied. First, the proposed new algorithm is given a general overview. Then, the Combined Spectral Shaping and Peak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction (COSPAR) algorithm is adjusted according to the alternate projection method and phase retrieval algorithm, and an improved COSPAR (ICOSPAR) algorithm with a faster execution speed and higher waveform generation efficiency is derived. The specific method performs waveform projection between the spectral constraint domain and the PAPR constraint domain and then evaluates the computational load of the ICOSPAR algorithm. Simulation results show that the ICOSPAR algorithm is reliable and efficient in generating low PAPRs and low sidelobe noise waveforms.

An intelligent impulsive noise mitigation with deep learning method

AbstractTo enable message transmission among sensors and equipment, power line communication (PLC) is a widely adopted smart grid. However, due to the occurrence of impulsive noise (IN), reliable transmissions over PLC channels in the smart grid are challenging. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an adaptive noise mitigation scheme to clip the IN with the sliding window‐based method, where the altitude of the received signal in the current time slots is obtained by computing the average altitude of signals in the previous and next time slots. To detect the states of IN and dynamically estimate the power threshold of signals for the IN mitigation scheme, we develop an intelligent algorithm based on the long short‐term memory network. To prevent the useful signals from being eliminated as IN signals, we propose the accelerated proximal gradient method (APGM) based on tone reservation to reduce the peak‐to‐average power ratio (PAPR) for the transmitting signals with low computational complexity. In addition, the closed‐form expression of the bit error rate (BER) is derived for the proposed sliding window‐based IN mitigation scheme according to the probability density function of the IN. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed IN mitigation scheme achieves a better BER performance than the conventional IN mitigation schemes. In addition, the APGM aided by IN mitigation can further improve BER performance due to the PAPR reduction.

Clipping Noise in Visible Light Communication Systems with OFDM and PAPR Reduction

This paper presents an analytical study of signal clipping that leads to the noise/distortion in the waveform of DC-biased optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DCO-OFDM)-based visible light communication (VLC) systems. The pilot-assisted (PA) technique is used to reduce the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of the time-domain waveform of the DCO-OFDM system. The bit error rate (BER) performance of the PA DCO-OFDM system is investigated analytically at three different clipping levels as well as without any clipping. The analytical BER performance is verified through simulation and then compared to that of the conventional DCO-OFDM without PAPR reduction at the selected clipping levels. The PA DCO-OFDM system shows improved BER performance at all three clipping levels.

Spectral efficiency analysis on massive MIMO filter bank

ABSTRACT This article covers the potential of Filter Bank Multicarrier (FBMC) modulation as an alternative to be used in the future 5 G wireless networks in which Massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) is implemented. The ‘energy efficient Massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (M-MIMO) Filter bank Multi-carrier Modulation (FBMC)’ is necessary and beneficial for the upcoming wireless communiqué system. This is because there is an ever-increasing demand for higher data rates with higher Spectral Efficiency (SE). This paper compares orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with FBMC. This helps to evaluate the Spectral Efficiency (SE) of a Massive MIMO system that performs transmission under a unicellular environment. The variation in Massive MIMO allows equilibrium of the channel because FBMC has extra benefits due to the confinement of the subcarrier in an assigned range. However, the high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) in an M-MIMO-FBMC system is recognised as a serious problem that causes nonlinear signal deformation and restricts the effectiveness of the Power Amplifier (PA). In this work, to increase the SE in the system, the antenna count is optimised, such that the SNR or SNDR is maximum. For this, the antenna counts are optimised via Self Improved SSO with a Chaotic Map (SISSO-CM).

A novel SLM scheme for peak-to-average power ratio reduction in WOLA-OFDM system

This paper addresses high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) issue in the recently invented weighted overlap and add-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (WOLA-OFDM) system. The selective mapping (SLM), one of the most widely used PAPR reduction schemes in OFDM-based multicarrier transmission strategies, can be used to reduce the PAPR of WOLA-OFDM signals. However, the overlapping of symbol extensions in the WOLA-OFDM transmitter considerably deteriorates the performance of SLM. To overcome this problem, we have developed an efficient SLM scheme named dual symbol optimization-SLM (DSO-SLM) for the WOLA-OFDM system. In this new scheme, instead of reducing the PAPR of adjacent symbols separately as in conventional SLM, each symbol is evaluated together with its overlapping predecessor symbol while searching for the optimal transmission signal with minimized PAPR. With the usage of DSO procedure, it becomes possible to enhance the performance of conventional SLM in the WOLA-OFDM system.

Sparse Ramanujan Sequences Transform based OFDM for PAPR Reduction

Sparse Ramanujan Sequences (SRS) are periodic series derived from Ramanujan Sums (RS). RS is an exponential summation used to derive infinite series expansions for arithmetic functions, whose application pervades different fields of study from classical mathematics to digital signal processing. SRS has properties similar to RS such as periodicity and orthogonality. SRS transforms allow the sparse representation of signals, hence they have many potential applications, such as denoising and compression. The application of SRS transform to reduce the Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is proposed in this paper. The Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF) and Bit Error Rate (BER) are used to assess the PAPR reduction performance of the proposed system. The results show that the proposed SRS transform-based OFDM system significantly reduces PAPR and BER with reduced computational complexity in comparison with the existing systems.

Physical Layer Encryption for CO-OFDM Systems Enabled by Camera Projection Scrambler

In this paper, we propose a camera projection approach to enhance the physical layer security of coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) systems. The data are converted to the new location by the camera projection module in the encryption system, where the 5D hyperchaotic system provides the keys for the camera projection module. The simulated 16QAM CO-OFDM security system over 80 km SSMF is shown to provide a key space of about 9 × 1090 through the five-dimensional (5D) hyperchaotic system, making it impossible for eavesdroppers to obtain valid information, and the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is reduced by about 0.8 dB.
