Due to dense deployments of Internet of things (IoT) networks, interference management becomes a critical challenge. With the proliferation of aerial IoT devices, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), interference characteristics in 3D environments will be different than those in the existing terrestrial IoT networks. In this paper, we consider 3D topology IoT networks with a mixture of aerial and terrestrial links, with low-cost cross-dipole antennas at ground nodes and omni-directional antennas at aerial nodes. Considering a massive-access communication scenario, we first derive the statistics of the channel gain at IoT receivers in closed form while taking into account the radiation patterns of both ground and aerial nodes. These are then used to calculate the ergodic achievable rate as a function of the height of the aerial receiver. We propose an interference mitigation scheme that utilizes 3D antenna radiation pattern with different dipole antenna settings. Our results show that using the proposed scheme, the ergodic achievable rate improves as the height of aerial receivers increases. In addition, the ratio between the ground and aerial receivers that maximizes the peak rate also increases with the aerial IoT receiver height.

Internet of things (IoT) is one of main paradigms for 5G wireless systems. Due to high connection density, interference from other sources is a key problem in IoT networks. Especially, it is more difficult to find a solution to manage interference in uncoordinated networks than coordinated system. In this work, we consider 3D topology of uncoordinated IoT network and propose interference mitigation scheme with respect to 3D antenna radiation pattern. In 2D topology network, the radiation pattern of dipole antenna can be assumed as onmi-directional. We show the variance of antenna gain on dipole antenna in 3D topology, consider the simultaneous use of three orthogonal dipole antennas, and compare the system performance depending on different antenna configurations. Our simulation results show that proper altitude of IoT devices can extensively improve the system performance.
This paper explores the effects of three-dimensional (3D) antenna radiation pattern and backhaul constraint on optimal 3D path planning problem of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), in interference prevalent downlink cellular networks. We consider a cellular-connected UAV that is tasked to travel between two locations within a fixed time and it can be used to improve the cellular connectivity of ground users by acting as a relay. Since the antenna gain of a cellular base station changes significantly with the UAV altitude, the UAV can increase the signal quality in its backhaul link by changing its height over the course of its mission. This problem is non-convex and thus, we explore the dynamic programming technique to solve it. We show that the 3D optimal paths can introduce significant network performance gain over the trajectories with fixed UAV heights.
In this letter, we propose an energy-efficient 3-dimensional placement of multiple aerial access points (AAPs), in the desired area, acting as flying base stations for uplink communication from a set of ground user equipment (UE). The globally optimal energy-efficient vertical position of AAPs is derived analytically by considering the inter-cell interference and AAP energy consumption. The horizontal position of AAPs which maximize the packing density of the AAP coverage area are determined using a novel regular polygon-based AAP placement algorithm. We also determine the maximum number of non-interfering AAPs that can be placed in the desired area. The effect of the AAP energy consumption on the optimal placement and the analytic findings are verified via numerical simulations.
A prior-guided deep learning (DL) based interference mitigation approach is proposed for frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radars. In this paper, the interference mitigation problem is tackled as a regression problem. Considering the complex-valued nature of radar signals, the complex-valued convolutional neural network is utilized as an architecture for implementation, which is different from the conventional real-valued counterparts. Meanwhile, as the useful beat signals of FMCW radars and interferences exhibit different distributions in the time-frequency domain, this prior feature is exploited as a regularization term to avoid overfitting of the learned representation. The effectiveness and accuracy of our proposed complex-valued fully convolutional network (CV-FCN) based interference mitigation approach are verified and analyzed through both simulated and measured radar signals. Compared to the real-valued counterparts, the CV-FCN shows a better interference mitigation performance with a potential of half memory reduction in low Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) scenarios. Moreover, the CV-FCN trained using only simulated data can be directly utilized for interference mitigation in various measured radar signals and shows a superior generalization capability. Furthermore, by incorporating the prior feature, the CV-FCN trained on only 1/8 of the full data achieves comparable performance as that on the full dataset in low SINR scenarios, and the training procedure converges faster.
Dual-Functional Radar-Communication (DFRC) system is an essential and promising technique for beyond 5G. In this work, we propose a powerful and unified multi-antenna DFRC transmission framework, where an additional radar sequence is transmitted apart from communication streams to enhance radar beampattern matching capability, and Rate-Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA) is adopted to better manage the interference. RSMA relies on multi-antenna Rate-Splitting (RS) with Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) receivers, and the split and encoding of messages into common and private streams. We design the message split and the precoders of the radar sequence and communication streams to jointly maximize the Weighted Sum Rate (WSR) and minimize the radar beampattern approximation Mean Square Error (MSE) subject to the per antenna power constraint. An iterative algorithm based on Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) is developed to solve the problem. Numerical results first show that RSMA-assisted DFRC achieves a better tradeoff between WSR and beampattern approximation than Space-Division Multiple Access (SDMA)-assisted DFRC with or without radar sequence, and other simpler radar-communication strategies using orthogonal resources. We also show that the RSMA-assisted DFRC frameworks with and without radar sequence achieve the same tradeoff performance. This is because that the common stream is better exploited in the proposed framework. The common stream of RSMA fulfils the triple function of managing interference among communication users, managing interference between communication and radar, and beampattern approximation. Therefore, by enabling RSMA in DFRC, the system performance is enhanced while the system architecture is simplified since there is no need to use additional radar sequence and SIC. We conclude that RSMA is a more powerful multiple access for DFRC.
