Investigation of FBMC-OQAM Equalization with Real Interference Prediction Algorithm Properties for MIMO Transmission Scheme.

Increasing the data transfer rate is an urgent task in cellular, high-frequency (HF) and special communication systems. The most common way to increase the data rate is to expand the bandwidth of the transmitted signal, which is often achieved through the use of multitone systems. One such system is the filter bank multicarrier (FBMC). In addition, speed improvements are achieved using multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) systems. In this study, we developed an algorithm for equalizing FBMC signals with offset-QAM modulation (OQAM) with self-interference compensation due to its correlation properties in a MIMO channel with memory. An analytical derivation of the proposed algorithm and an analysis of the computational complexity are given. According to the results of simulation modeling and a comparative analysis of performance in terms of the bit error rate and error vector magnitude with solutions with similar computational complexity, a similar level of performance was shown compared to a more complex parallel multistage algorithm, and a better performance was demonstrated compared to a one-tap algorithm.

Computationally Efficient Implementation of Joint Detection and Parameters Estimation of Signals with Dispersive Distortions on a GPU.

The detector is an integral part of the device for receiving and processing radio signals. Signals that have passed through the ionospheric channel acquire an unknown Doppler shift and are subject to dispersion distortions. It is necessary to carry out joint detection and parameter estimation to improve reception quality and detection accuracy. Modern hardware base developing makes it possible to implement a device for joint detection and evaluation of signals based on standard processors (CPU) and graphic processors (GPU). The article discusses the implementation of a signal detector that allows for real-time operation. A comparison of implementations of algorithms for estimating the Doppler frequency shift through multiplication by a complex exponent and the fast Fourier transform (FFT) is performed. A comparison of computational costs and execution speed on the CPU and GPU is considered.

Issues with Modeling a Tunnel Communication Channel through a Plasma Sheath.

We consider two of the most relevant problems that arise when modeling the properties of a tunnel radio communication channel through a plasma layer. First, we studied the case of the oblique incidence of electromagnetic waves on a layer of ionized gas for two wave polarizations. The resonator parameters that provide signal reception at a wide solid angle were found. We also took into account the unavoidable presence of a protective layer between the plasma and the resonator, as well as the conducting elements of the antenna system in the dielectric itself. This provides the first complete simulation for a tunnel communication channel. Noise immunity and communication range studies were conducted for a prospective spacecraft radio line.
