This paper studies a bursty interference channel, where the presence/absence of interference is modeled by a block-i.i.d. Bernoulli process that stays constant for a duration of $T$ symbols (referred to as coherence block) and then changes independently to a new state. We consider both a quasi-static setup, where the interference state remains constant during the whole transmission of the codeword, and an ergodic setup, where a codeword spans several coherence blocks. For the quasi-static setup, we study the largest rate of a coding strategy that provides reliable communication at a basic rate and allows an increased (opportunistic) rate when there is no interference. For the ergodic setup, we study the largest achievable rate. We study how non-causal knowledge of the interference state, referred to as channel-state information (CSI), affects the achievable rates. We derive converse and achievability bounds for (i) local CSI at the receiver-side only; (ii) local CSI at the transmitter- and receiver-side, and (iii) global CSI at all nodes. Our bounds allow us to identify when interference burstiness is beneficial and in which scenarios global CSI outperforms local CSI. The joint treatment of the quasi-static and ergodic setup further allows for a thorough comparison of these two setups.

This paper investigates the linear precoder design for $K$-user interference channels of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) transceivers under finite alphabet inputs. We first obtain general explicit expressions of the achievable rate for users in the MIMO interference channel systems. We study optimal transmission strategies in both low and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions. Given finite alphabet inputs, we show that a simple power allocation design achieves optimal performance at high SNR whereas the well-known interference alignment technique for Gaussian inputs only utilizes a partial interference-free signal space for transmission and leads to a constant rate loss when applied naively to finite-alphabet inputs. Moreover, we establish necessary conditions for the linear precoder design to achieve weighted sum-rate maximization. We also present an efficient iterative algorithm for determining precoding matrices of all the users. Our numerical results demonstrate that the proposed iterative algorithm achieves considerably higher sum-rate under practical QAM inputs than other known methods.
In this paper, we consider multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) interference channel where the received signal is divided into two parts for information decoding and energy harvesting (EH), respectively. The transmit beamforming vectors and receive power splitting (PS) ratios are jointly designed in order to minimize the total transmission power subject to both signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and EH constraints. Most joint beamforming and power splitting (JBPS) designs assume that perfect channel state information (CSI) is available; however CSI errors are inevitable in practice. To overcome this limitation, we study the robust JBPS design problem assuming a norm-bounded error (NBE) model for the CSI. Three different solution approaches are proposed for the robust JBPS problem, each one leading to a different computational algorithm. Firstly, an efficient semidefinite relaxation (SDR)-based approach is presented to solve the highly non-convex JBPS problem, where the latter can be formulated as a semidefinite programming (SDP) problem. A rank-one recovery method is provided to recover a robust feasible solution to the original problem. Secondly, based on second order cone programming (SOCP) relaxation, we propose a low complexity approach with the aid of a closed-form robust solution recovery method. Thirdly, a new iterative method is also provided which can achieve near-optimal performance when the SDR-based algorithm results in a higher-rank solution. We prove that this iterative algorithm monotonically converges to a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) solution of the robust JBPS problem. Finally, simulation results are presented to validate the robustness and efficiency of the proposed algorithms.
In this paper, time delay estimation techniques robust to narrowband interference (NBI) are proposed. Owing to the deluge of wireless signal interference these days, narrowband interference is a common problem for communication and positioning systems. To mitigate the effect of this narrow band interference, we propose a robust time delay estimator for a predetermined repeated synchronization signal in an NBI environment. We exploit an ensemble of average and sample covariance matrices to estimate the noise profile. In addition, to increase the detection probability, we suppress the variance of likelihood value by employing a von-Mises distribution in the time-delay estimator. Our proposed time delay estimator shows a better performance in an NBI environment compared to a typical time delay estimator.
The two-user Gaussian interference channel (G-IC) is revisited, with a particular focus on practically amenable discrete input signalling and treating interference as noise (TIN) receivers. The corresponding deterministic interference channel (D-IC) is first investigated and coding schemes that can achieve the entire capacity region of D-IC under TIN are proposed. These schemes are then systematically translate into multi-layer superposition coding schemes based on purely discrete inputs for the real-valued G-IC. Our analysis shows that the proposed scheme is able to achieve the entire capacity region to within a constant gap for all channel parameters. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first constant-gap result under purely discrete signalling and TIN for the entire capacity region and all the interference regimes. Furthermore, the approach is extended to obtain coding scheme based on discrete inputs for the complex-valued G-IC. For such a scenario, the minimum distance and the achievable rate of the proposed scheme under TIN are analyzed, which takes into account the effects of random phase rotations introduced by the channels. Simulation results show that our scheme is capable of approaching the capacity region of the complex-valued G-IC and significantly outperforms Gaussian signalling with TIN in various interference regimes.
We employ Permutation Trellis Code (PTC) based multi-level Frequency Shift Keying signaling to mitigate the impact of Primary Users (PUs) on the performance of Secondary Users (SUs) in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs). The PUs are assumed to be dynamic in that they appear intermittently and stay active for an unknown duration. Our approach is based on the use of PTC combined with multi-level FSK modulation so that an SU can improve its data rate by increasing its transmission bandwidth while operating at low power and not creating destructive interference for PUs. We evaluate system performance by obtaining an approximation for the actual Bit Error Rate (BER) using properties of the Viterbi decoder and carry out a thorough performance analysis in terms of BER and throughput. The results show that the proposed coded system achieves i) robustness by ensuring that SUs have stable throughput in the presence of heavy PU interference and ii) improved resiliency of SU links to interference in the presence of multiple dynamic PUs.
