Medium-scale or large-scale receive antenna array with digital beamforming can be employed at receiver to make a significant interference reduction, but leads to expensive cost and high complexity of the RF-chain circuit. To deal with this issue, a classic analog-and-digital beamforming (ADB) structure was proposed in the literature for greatly reducing the number of RF-chains. Based on the ADB structure, we in this paper propose a robust hybrid ADB scheme to resist directions of arrival (DOAs) estimation errors. The key idea of our scheme is to employ null space projection (NSP) in analog beamforming domain and diagonal loading (DL) method in digital beamforming domain. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme performs more robustly, and moreover, has a significant improvement on the receive signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) compared to NSP ADB scheme and DL method.

A large-scale fully-digital receive antenna array can provide very high-resolution direction of arrival (DOA) estimation, but resulting in a significantly high RF-chain circuit cost. Thus, a hybrid analog and digital (HAD) structure is preferred. Two phase alignment (PA) methods, HAD PA (HADPA) and hybrid digital and analog PA (HDAPA), are proposed to estimate DOA based on the parametric method. Compared to analog phase alignment (APA), they can significantly reduce the complexity in the PA phases. Subsequently, a fast root multiple signal classification HDAPA (Root-MUSIC-HDAPA) method is proposed specially for this hybrid structure to implement an approximately analytical solution. Due to the HAD structure, there exists the effect of direction-finding ambiguity. A smart strategy of maximizing the average receive power is adopted to delete those spurious solutions and preserve the true optimal solution by linear searching over a set of limited finite candidate directions. This results in a significant reduction in computational complexity. Eventually, the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) of finding emitter direction using the HAD structure is derived. Simulation results show that our proposed methods, Root-MUSIC-HDAPA and HDAPA, can achieve the hybrid CRLB with their complexities being significantly lower than those of pure linear searching-based methods, such as APA.
A simple method is proposed for use in a scenario involving a single-antenna source node communicating with a destination node that is equipped with two antennas via multiple single-antenna relay nodes, where each relay is subject to an individual power constraint. Furthermore, ultra-reliable and low-latency communication are desired. The latter requirement translates to considering only schemes that make use of local channel state information. Whereas for a receiver equipped with a single antenna, distributed beamforming is a well known and adequate solution, no straightforward extension is known. In this paper, a scheme is proposed based on a space-time diversity transformation that is applied as a front-end operation at the destination node. This results in an effective unitary channel matrix replacing the scalar coefficient corresponding to each user. Each relay node then inverts its associated channel matrix, which is the generalization of undoing the channel phase in the classical case of distributed beamforming to a single-antenna receiver, and then repeats the message over the resulting gain-only channel. In comparison to a single-antenna destination node, the method doubles the diversity order without requiring any channel state information at the receiver while at the same time retaining the array gain offered by the relays.
We propose, analyze and demonstrate an architecture for scalable cooperative reception. In a cluster of N + 1 receive nodes, one node is designated as the final receiver, and the N other nodes act as amplify-and-forward relays which adapt their phases such that the relayed signals add up constructively at the designated receiver. This yields received SNR scaling linearly with N, while avoiding the linear increase in overhead incurred by a direct approach in which received signals are separately quantized and transmitted for centralized processing. By transforming the task of long-distance distributed receive beamforming into one of local distributed transmit beamforming, we can leverage a scalable one-bit feedback algorithm for phase synchronization. We show that time division between the long-distance and local links eliminates the need for explicit frequency synchronization. We provide an analytical framework, whose results closely match Monte Carlo simulations, to evaluate the impact of phase noise due to relaying delay on the performance of the one-bit feedback algorithm. Experimental results from our prototype implementation on software-defined radios demonstrate the expected gains in received signal strength despite significant oscillator drift, and are consistent with results from our analytical framework.
In this paper, we present a novel scenario for directional modulation (DM) networks with a full-duplex (FD) malicious attacker (Mallory), where Mallory can eavesdrop the confidential message from Alice to Bob and simultaneously interfere Bob by sending a jamming signal. Considering that the jamming plus noise at Bob is colored, an enhanced receive beamforming (RBF), whitening-filter-based maximum ratio combining (MRC) (WFMRC), is proposed. Subsequently, two RBFs of maximizing the secrecy rate (Max-SR) and minimum mean square error (MMSE) are presented to show the same performance as WFMRC. To reduce the computational complexity of conventional MMSE, a low-complexity MMSE is also proposed. Eventually, to completely remove the jamming signal from Mallory and transform the residual interference plus noise to a white one, a new RBF, null-space projection (NSP) based maximizing WF receive power, called NSP-based Max-WFRP, is also proposed. From simulation results, we find that the proposed Max-SR, WFMRC, and low-complexity MMSE have the same SR performance as conventional MMSE, and achieve the best performance while the proposed NSP-based Max-WFRP performs better than MRC in the medium and high signal-to-noise ratio regions. Due to its low-complexity,the proposed low-complexity MMSE is very attractive. More important, the proposed methods are robust to the change in malicious jamming power compared to conventional MRC.
In this paper, we make an investigation of receive antenna selection (RAS) strategies in the secure pre-coding aided spatial modulation (PSM) system with the aid of artificial noise. Due to a lack of the closed-form expression for secrecy rate (SR) in secure PSM systems, it is hard to optimize the RAS. To address this issue, the cut-off rate is used as an approximation of the SR. Further, two low-complexity RAS schemes for maximizing SR, called Max-SR-L and Max-SR-H, are derived in the low and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions, respectively. Due to the fact that the former works well in the low SNR region but becomes worse in the medium and high SNR regions while the latter also has the similar problem, a novel RAS strategy Max-SR-A is proposed to cover all SNR regions. Simulation results show that the proposed Max-SR-H and Max-SR-L schemes approach the optimal SR performances of the exhaustive search (ES) in the high and low SNR regions, respectively. In particular, the SR performance of the proposed Max-SR-A is close to that of the optimal ES and better than that of the random method in almost all SNR regions.
