Significant inter-symbol interference (ISI) challenges the achievement of reliable, high data-rate molecular communication via diffusion. In this paper, a hybrid modulation based on pulse position and concentration is proposed to mitigate ISI. By exploiting the time dimension, molecular concentration and position modulation (MCPM) increases the achievable data rate over conventional concentration and position-based modulations. In addition, unlike multi-molecule schemes, this hybrid scheme employs a single-molecule type and so simplifies transceiver implementations. In the paper, the optimal sequence detector of the proposed modulation is provided as well as a reduced complexity detector (two-stage, position-concentration detector, TPCD). A tractable cost function based on the TPCD detector is proposed and employed to optimize the design of the hybrid modulation scheme. In addition, the approximate probability of error for the MCPM-TPCD system is derived and is shown to be tight with respect to simulated performance. Numerically, MCPM shows improved performance over standard concentration and pulse position-based schemes in the low transmission power and high bit-rate regime. Furthermore, MCPM offers increased robustness against synchronization errors.

The Internet of Bio-nano Things is a significant development for next generation communication technologies. Because conventional wireless communication technologies face challenges in realizing new applications (e.g., in-body area networks for health monitoring) and necessitate the substitution of information carriers, researchers have shifted their interest to molecular communications (MC). Although remarkable progress has been made in this field over the last decade, advances have been far from acceptable for the achievement of its application objectives. A crucial problem of MC is the low data rate and high error rate inherent in particle dynamics specifications, in contrast to wave-based conventional communications. Therefore, it is important to investigate the resources by which MC can obtain additional information paths and provide strategies to exploit these resources. This study aims to examine techniques involving resource aggregation and exploitation to provide prospective directions for future progress in MC. In particular, we focus on state-of-the-art studies on multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. We discuss the possible advantages of applying MIMO to various MC system models. Furthermore, we survey various studies that aimed to achieve MIMO gains for the respective models, from theoretical background to prototypes. Finally, we conclude this study by summarizing the challenges that need to be addressed.
The main limitation of visible light communication (VLC) is the narrow modulation bandwidth, which reduces the achievable data rates. In this paper, we apply the non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme to enhance the achievable throughput in high-rate VLC downlink networks. We first propose a novel gain ratio power allocation (GRPA) strategy that takes into account the users channel conditions to ensure efficient and fair power allocation. Our results indicate that GRPA significantly enhances system performance compared to the static power allocation. We also study the effect of tuning the transmission angles of the light emitting diodes (LEDs) and the field of views (FOVs) of the receivers, and demonstrate that these parameters can offer new degrees of freedom to boost NOMA performance. Simulation results reveal that NOMA is a promising multiple access scheme for the downlink of VLC networks.
In this paper, we propose a physical layer security scheme that exploits a novel index modulation (IM) technique for coordinate interleaved orthogonal designs (CIOD). Utilizing the diversity gain of CIOD transmission, the proposed scheme, named CIOD-IM, provides an improved spectral efficiency by means of IM. In order to provide a satisfactory secrecy rate, we design a particular artificial noise matrix, which does not affect the performance of the legitimate receiver, while deteriorating the performance of the eavesdropper. We derive expressions of the ergodic secrecy rate and the theoretical bit error rate upper bound. In addition, we analyze the case of imperfect channel estimation by taking practical concerns into consideration. It is shown via computer simulations that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing IM-based schemes and might be a candidate for future secure communication systems.
A high success rate of grant-free random access scheme is proposed to support massive access for machine-to-machine communications in massive multipleinput multiple-output systems. This scheme allows active user equipments (UEs) to transmit their modulated uplink messages along with super pilots consisting of multiple sub-pilots to a base station (BS). Then, the BS performs channel state information (CSI) estimation and uplink message decoding by utilizing a proposed graph combined clustering independent component analysis (GCICA) decoding algorithm, and then employs the estimated CSIs to detect active UEs by utilizing the characteristic of asymptotic favorable propagation of massive MIMO channel. We call this proposed scheme as GCICA based random access (GCICA-RA) scheme. We analyze the successful access probability, missed detection probability, and uplink throughput of the GCICA-RA scheme. Numerical results show that, the GCICA-RA scheme significantly improves the successful access probability and uplink throughput, decreases missed detection probability, and provides low CSI estimation error at the same time.
Terahertz (THz) communications are regarded as a pillar technology for the sixth generation (6G) wireless systems, by offering multi-ten-GHz bandwidth. To overcome the short transmission distance and huge propagation loss, ultra-massive (UM) MIMO systems that employ sub-millimeter wavelength antennas array are proposed to enable an enticingly high array gain. In the UM-MIMO systems, hybrid beamforming stands out for its great potential in promisingly high data rate and reduced power consumption. In this paper, challenges and features of the THz hybrid beamforming design are investigated, in light of the distinctive THz peculiarities. Specifically, we demonstrate that the spatial degree-of-freedom (SDoF) is less than 5, which is caused by the extreme sparsity of the THz channel. The blockage problem caused by the huge reflection and scattering losses, as high as 15 dB or over, is studied. Moreover, we analyze the challenges led by the array containing 1024 or more antennas, including the requirement for intelligent subarray architecture, strict energy efficiency, and propagation characterization based on spherical-wave propagation mechanisms. Owning up to hundreds of GHz bandwidth, beam squint effect could cause over 5~dB array gain loss, when the fractional bandwidth exceeds 10%. Inspired by these facts, three novel THz-specific hybrid beamforming architectures are presented, including widely-spaced multi-subarray, dynamic array-of-subarrays, and true-time-delay-based architectures. We also demonstrate the potential data rate, power consumption, and array gain capabilities for THz communications. As a roadmap of THz hybrid beamforming design, multiple open problems and potential research directions are elaborated.
