ABSTRACT
The rapid development of wireless communication technology has led to an increasing number of internet of thing (IoT) devices, and the demand for spectrum for these devices and their related applications is also increasing. However, spectrum scarcity has become an increasingly serious problem. Therefore, we introduce a collaborative spectrum sensing (CSS) framework in this paper to identify available spectrum resources so that IoT devices can access them and, meanwhile, avoid causing harmful interference to the normal communication of the primary user (PU). However, in the process of sensing the PUs signal in IoT devices, the issue of sensing time and decision cost (the cost of determining whether the signal state of the PU is correct or incorrect) arises. To this end, we propose a distributed cognitive IoT model, which includes two IoT devices independently using sequential decision rules to detect the PU. On this basis, we define the sensing time and cost functions for IoT devices and formulate an average cost optimization problem in CSS. To solve this problem, we further regard the optimal sensing time problem as a finite horizon problem and solve the threshold of the optimal decision rule by person-by-person optimization (PBPO) methodology and dynamic programming. At last, numerical simulation results demonstrate the correctness of our proposal in terms of the global false alarm and miss detection probability, and it always achieves minimal average cost under various costs of each observation taken and thresholds.
ABSTRACT
To solve error propagation and exorbitant computational complexity of signal detection in wireless multiple-input multiple-output-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems, a low-complex and efficient signal detection with iterative feedback is proposed via a constellation point feedback optimization of minimum mean square error-ordered successive interference cancellation (MMSE-OSIC) to approach the optimal detection. The candidate vectors are formed by selecting the candidate constellation points. Additionally, the vector most approaching received signals is chosen by the maximum likelihood (ML) criterion in formed candidate vectors to reduce the error propagation by previous erroneous decision, thus improving the detection performance. Under a large number of matrix inversion operations in the above iterative MMSE process, effective and fast signal detection is hard to be achieved. Then, a symmetric successive relaxation iterative algorithm is proposed to avoid the complex matrix inversion calculation process. The relaxation factor and initial iteration value are reasonably configured with low computational complexity to achieve good detection close to that of the MMSE with fewer iterations. Simultaneously, the error diffusion and complexity accumulation caused by the successive detection of the subsequent OSIC scheme are also improved. In addition, a method via a parallel coarse and fine detection deals with several layers to both reduce iterations and improve performance. Therefore, the proposed scheme significantly promotes the MIMO-OFDM performance and thus plays an irreplaceable role in the future sixth generation (6G) mobile communications and wireless sensor networks, and so on.
