Book Description
"This dissertation investigates single carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE) with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels for radio frequency (RF) and underwater acoustic (UWA) wireless communications. It consists of five papers, selected from a total of 13 publications. Each paper focuses on a specific technical challenge of the SC-FDE MIMO system. The first paper proposes an improved frequency-domain channel estimation method based on interpolation to track fast time-varying fading channels using a small amount of training symbols in a large data block. The second paper addresses the carrier frequency offset (CFO) problem using a new group-wise phase estimation and compensation algorithm to combat phase distortion caused by CFOs, rather than to explicitly estimate the CFOs. The third paper incorporates layered frequency-domain equalization with the phase correction algorithm to combat the fast phase rotation in coherent communications. In the fourth paper, the frequency-domain equalization combined with the turbo principle and soft successive interference cancelation [sic] (SSIC) is proposed to further improve the bit error rate (BER) performance of UWA communications. In the fifth paper, a bandwidth-efficient SC-FDE scheme incorporating decision-directed channel estimation is proposed for UWA MIMO communication systems. The proposed algorithms are tested by extensive computer simulations and real ocean experiment data. The results demonstrate significant performance improvements in four aspects: improved channel tracking, reduced BER, reduced computational complexity, and enhanced data efficiency"--Abstract, leaf iv.

Book Description
"This dissertation investigates both of the frequency domain and time domain turbo equalization with multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) fading channels for radio frequency and underwater acoustic communications. First, a low complexity frequency domain turbo equalization (FDTE) is proposed for the MIMO systems with zero padding (ZP) or cyclic prefix (CP) inserted between the transmitted data blocks and its performance is tested on the real-world UWA communications experiments. Second, as high speed communication system requires efficient bandwidth usage and power consumption, CP or ZP is not transmitted as auxiliary information. An inter-block interference cancelation and CP reconstruction algorithm is developed to re-arrange the channel matrix into a block diagonal one. This improvement makes the FDTE effectively detects the continuous data stream from the high speed UWA communications and its performance has been verified by processing data collected from the UWA communications experiment. Finally, a low complexity soft interference cancelation (SIC) time domain turbo equalizer for MIMO systems with high level modulation is proposed. Compared with the conventional linear or nonlinear turbo equalizers, the proposed SIC turbo equalizer can theoretically reach the bound set up by the ideal match filter and its bit error rate (BER) performance from Monte Carlo simulation achieves a lower error floor as well as a more rapid convergence speed."--Abstract, page iv.

Book Description
"Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems have attracted a lot of interest in the past decade due to their capability in delivering high spectral efficiency as well as their robust performance against fading. In MIMO inter-symbol interference (lSI) channels, a severe interference problem occurs due to the lSI and co-channel interference. Thus, the error propagation problem becomes more serious, and its mitigation has to be considered when designing the receiver. In this regard, a turbo equalizer which exchanges soft information between the equalizer and the decoder has been shown to be an effective method to combat the lSI caused by frequency-selective channels. By iteratively exchanging soft extrinsic information between a soft-input soft-output equalizer and a decoder, turbo equalizer can achieve large performance gains over a separated equalizer and decoder structure. In its original form, Douillard employed maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) equalization and decoding methods in an iterative fashion. However, the computational complexity required to derive the a posteriori log likelihood ratio (LLR) for the MAP decoder is prohibitive. Therefore, the design of low-complexity turbo equalizers based on minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion has attracted considerable attention in the past few years. In this work, a new soft decision feedback equalizer (SDFE) is proposed for MIMO Communication systems. The computational complexity of the proposed algorithm only linearly grows with the number of equalizer coefficients, compared with the quadratic complexity of minimum mean square error (MMSE)-based linear turbo equalizer with time-varying coefficients. The performance of our proposed algorithm is tested by extensive undersea trial data collected in two medium-range undersea experiments"--Abstract, Leaf iv.

Book Description
"Multiple antennas at both the transmitter and receiver is known as multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. This has emerged as the most promising technique for improving the performance of wireless digital transmission systems as well as allowing higher data rates to be obtained for a given bandwidth. A consequence of the MIMO wireless communications revolution is that multipath scattering of the transmitted signal has moved from being a problem to being a valuable resource. This has happened to such extent that MIMO systems have come to rely on this resource. However, away from dense urban and indoor environments such as Australian rural and remote areas with wide open spaces and flat or smooth undulating terrain such rich scattering can be hard to find. This research seeks to develop MIMO schemes which will give robust and reliable perfor?mance in environments that can change rapidly from rich scattering environment to clear line of sight between transmitter and receiver. Wireless communications system which are robust to changing environment conditions are a particular important factor in military communication systems as well as for civilian emergency services. In this work, polarization is proposed as a source of diversity in wireless communications. Polarization diversity is particularly suited to the Australian rural and remote environment where wide open spaces and flat or smooth undulating terrain give rise to line of sight conditions between the transmitter and the receiver. The polarization diversity of transmitted signals is mostly preserved by the line-of-sight environment, presenting an opportunity for transmitter and receiver diversity techniques. Another aspect of the research presented here is the development of fast, fixed complexity, decoding algorithms for space-time codes that are robust to the changing transmission conditions. Reliable high rate transmission over the MIMO system can only be achieved through "space-time coding". The major drawback of a number of potentially useful space-time codes is the high computational complexity of the known decoding algorithms. This is particular true for a number of codes which are best suited to the exploitation of polarization diversity. The existing "fast" decoding algorithm for this decoding problem, the so-called sphere decoder, has performance which depends crucially on the channel conditions. When the channel is close to singular, that is, when the channel between the base station and terminal is close to pure line-of-sight, the sphere decoder defaults to an exhaustive search. If such conditions persist the communication system could be in outage purely due to computational overload. In this project we develop fast decoding algorithms which have fixed complexity across all channel conditions. In particular, we present the fastest known fixed complexity decoding algorithm for the Golden code, an important code used in the WiMax standard for fully mobile internet access"--P. iii.

Book Description
Multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO), which transmits multiple data streams via multiple antenna elements, is one of the most attractive technologies in the wireless communication field. Its extension, called ‘massive MIMO’ or ‘large-scale MIMO’, in which base station has over one hundred of the antenna elements, is now seen as a promising candidate to realize 5G and beyond, as well as 6G mobile communications. It has been the first decade since its fundamental concept emerged. This Special Issue consists of 19 papers and each of them focuses on a popular topic related to massive MIMO systems, e.g. analog/digital hybrid signal processing, antenna fabrication, and machine learning incorporation. These achievements could boost its realization and deepen the academic and industrial knowledge of this field.
