This paper presents a feasibility study for a novel positioning-communication integrated signal called Multi-Scale Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (MS-NOMA) for 5G positioning. One of the main differences between the MS-NOMA and the traditional positioning signal is MS-NOMA supports configurable powers for different positioning users (P-Users) to obtain better ranging accuracy and signal coverage. Our major contributions are: Firstly, we present the MS-NOMA signal and analyze the Bit Error Rate (BER) and ranging accuracy by deriving their simple expressions. The results show the interaction between the communication and positioning signals is rather limited, and it is feasible to use the MS-NOMA signal to achieve high positioning accuracy. Secondly, for an optimal positioning accuracy and signal coverage, we model the power allocation problem for MS-NOMA signal as a convex optimization problem by satisfying the QoS (Quality of Services) requirement and other constraints. Then, we propose a novel Positioning-Communication Joint Power Allocation (PCJPA) algorithm which allocates the powers of all P-Users iteratively. The theoretical and numerical results show our proposed MS-NOMA signal has great improvements of ranging/positioning accuracy than traditional PRS (Positioning Reference Signal) in 5G, and improves the coverage dramatically which means more P-Users could locate their positions without suffering the near-far effect.

The capability to achieve high-precision positioning accuracy has been considered as one of the most critical requirements for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) services in the fifth-generation (5G) cellular networks. The non-line-of-sight (NLOS) connectivity, coverage, reliability requirements, the minimum number of available anchors, and bandwidth limitations are among the main challenges to achieve high accuracy in V2X services. This work provides an overview of the potential solutions to provide the new radio (NR) V2X users (UEs) with high positioning accuracy in the future 3GPP releases. In particular, we propose a novel selective positioning solution to dynamically switch between different positioning technologies to improve the overall positioning accuracy in NR V2X services, taking into account the locations of V2X UEs and the accuracy of the collected measurements. Furthermore, we use high-fidelity system-level simulations to evaluate the performance gains of fusing the positioning measurements from different technologies in NR V2X services. Our numerical results show that the proposed hybridized schemes achieve a positioning error $boldsymbol{leq}$ 3 m with $boldsymbol{approx}$ 76% availability compared to $boldsymbol{approx}$ 55% availability when traditional positioning methods are used. The numerical results also reveal a potential gain of $boldsymbol{approx}$ 56% after leveraging the road-side units (RSUs) to improve the tail of the UEs positioning error distribution, i.e., worst-case scenarios, in NR V2X services.
Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) is a promising technology to fully utilize the precious spectrum and hardware in wireless systems, which has attracted significant attentions recently. This paper studies ISAC for the important and challenging monostatic setup, where one single ISAC node wishes to simultaneously sense a radar target while communicating with a communication receiver. Different from most existing schemes that rely on either radar-centric half-duplex (HD) pulsed transmission with information embedding that suffers from extremely low communication rate, or communication-centric waveform that suffers from degraded sensing performance, we propose a novel full-duplex (FD) ISAC scheme that utilizes the waiting time of conventional pulsed radars to transmit dedicated communication signals. Compared to radar-centric pulsed waveform with information embedding, the proposed design can drastically increase the communication rate, and also mitigate the sensing eclipsing and near-target blind range issues, as long as the self-interference (SI) is effectively suppressed. On the other hand, compared to communication-centric ISAC waveform, the proposed design has better auto-correlation property as it preserves the classic radar waveform for sensing. Performance analysis is developed by taking into account the residual SI, in terms of the probability of detection and ambiguity function for sensing, as well as the spectrum efficiency for communication. Numerical results are provided to show the significant performance gain of our proposed design over benchmark schemes.
Beamforming technology is widely used in millimeter wave systems to combat path losses, and beamformers are usually selected from a predefined codebook. Unfortunately, the traditional codebook design neglects the beam squint effect, and this will cause severe performance degradation when the bandwidth is large. In this letter, we consider that a codebook with fixed size is adopted in the wideband beamforming system. First, we analyze how beam squint affects system performance when all beams have the same width. The expression of average spectrum efficiency is derived based on the ideal beam pattern. Next, we formulate the optimization problem to design the optimal codebook. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed codebook deals with beam squint by spreading the beam coverage and significantly mitigates the performance degradation.
Combining intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is an effective solution to enhance communication coverage and energy efficiency. In this paper, we focus on an IRS-assisted NOMA network and propose an energy-efficient algorithm to yield a good tradeoff between the sum-rate maximization and total power consumption minimization. We aim to maximize the system energy efficiency by jointly optimizing the transmit beamforming at the BS and the reflecting beamforming at the IRS. Specifically, the transmit beamforming and the phases of the low-cost passive elements on the IRS are alternatively optimized until the convergence. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm in IRS-NOMA can yield superior performance compared with the conventional OMA-IRS and NOMA with a random phase IRS.
LoRa is a modulation technology for low power wide area networks (LPWAN) with enormous potential in 5G era. However, the performance of LoRa system deteriorates seriously in fading-channel environments. To tackle this problem, in this paper we introduce multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) configuration employing space-time block coding (STBC) schemes into the LoRa system to formulate an STBC-MIMO LoRa system. Then, we investigate the theoretical performance of the proposed system over Rayleigh fading channels. To this end, we derive the distribution of the decision metric for the demodulator in the proposed system. Based on the above distribution, we propose the closed-form approximated bit error rate (BER) expression of the proposed system when perfect and imperfect channel information states (CSIs) are considered. In addition, we analyze the diversity order of the proposed system. The result demonstrates that the diversity order of the system in the imperfect CSI scenario with fixed channel estimate error variance is zero. However, in the imperfect CSI scenario with a decreasing channel estimate error variance and the perfect CSI scenario, the system can achieve full diversity. Finally, experimental results verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis and the excellent performance of the proposed system. Due to such superiority, the proposed STBC-MIMO LoRa system can be considered as a good scheme for LPWAN.
