It is shown that a receiver equipped with two antennas may null an arbitrary large number of spatial directions to any desired accuracy, while maintaining the interference-free signal-to-noise ratio, by judiciously adjusting the distance between the antenna elements. The main theoretical result builds on ergodic theory. The practicality of the scheme in moderate signal-to-noise systems is demonstrated for a scenario where each transmitter is equipped with a single antenna and each receiver has two receive chains and where the desired spacing between antenna elements is achieved by selecting the appropriate antennas from a large linear antenna array. We further extend the proposed scheme to show that interference can be eliminated also in specular multipath channels as well as multiple-input multiple-output interference channels where a single extra receiver suffices to align all interferers into a one-dimensional subspace. To demonstrate the performance of the scheme, we show significant gains for interference channels with four as well as six users, at low to moderate signal-to-noise ratios (0-20 dB). The robustness of the proposed technique to small channel estimation errors is also explored.

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 consider a secure communication scenario through the two-user Gaussian interference channel: each transmitter (user) has a confidential message to send reliably to its intended receiver while keeping it secret from the other receiver. Prior work investigated the performance of two different approaches for this scenario; i.i.d. Gaussian random codes and real alignment of structured codes. While the latter achieves the optimal sum secure degrees of freedom (s.d.o.f.), its extension to finite SNR regimes is challenging. In this paper, we propose a new achievability scheme for the weak and the moderately weak interference regimes, in which the reliability as well as the confidentiality of the transmitted messages are maintained at any finite SNR value. Our scheme uses lattice structure, structured jamming codewords, and lattice alignment in the encoding and the asymmetric compute-and-forward strategy in the decoding. We show that our lower bound on the sum secure rates scales linearly with log(SNR) and hence, it outperforms i.i.d. Gaussian random codes. Furthermore, we show that our achievable result is asymptotically optimal. Finally, we provide a discussion on an extension of our scheme to K>2 users.
With the depletion of spectrum, wireless communication systems turn to exploit large antenna arrays to achieve the degree of freedom in space domain, such as millimeter wave massive multi-input multioutput (MIMO), reconfigurable intelligent surface assisted communications and cell-free massive MIMO. In these systems, how to acquire accurate channel state information (CSI) is difficult and becomes a bottleneck of the communication links. In this article, we introduce the concept of channel extrapolation that relies on a small portion of channel parameters to infer the remaining channel parameters. Since the substance of channel extrapolation is a mapping from one parameter subspace to another, we can resort to deep learning (DL), a powerful learning architecture, to approximate such mapping function. Specifically, we first analyze the requirements, conditions and challenges for channel extrapolation. Then, we present three typical extrapolations over the antenna dimension, the frequency dimension, and the physical terminal, respectively. We also illustrate their respective principles, design challenges and DL strategies. It will be seen that channel extrapolation could greatly reduce the transmission overhead and subsequently enhance the performance gains compared with the traditional strategies. In the end, we provide several potential research directions on channel extrapolation for future intelligent communications systems.
Narrowband internet-of-things (NB-IoT) is a competitive 5G technology for massive machine-type communication scenarios, but meanwhile introduces narrowband interference (NBI) to existing broadband transmission such as the long term evolution (LTE) systems in enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) scenarios. In order to facilitate the harmonic and fair coexistence in wireless heterogeneous networks, it is important to eliminate NB-IoT interference to LTE systems. In this paper, a novel sparse machine learning based framework and a sparse combinatorial optimization problem is formulated for accurate NBI recovery, which can be efficiently solved using the proposed iterative sparse learning algorithm called sparse cross-entropy minimization (SCEM). To further improve the recovery accuracy and convergence rate, regularization is introduced to the loss function in the enhanced algorithm called regularized SCEM. Moreover, exploiting the spatial correlation of NBI, the framework is extended to multiple-input multiple-output systems. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed methods are effective in eliminating NB-IoT interference to LTE systems, and significantly outperform the state-of-the-art methods.
An interference alignment example is constructed for the deterministic channel model of the $K$ user interference channel. The deterministic channel example is then translated into the Gaussian setting, creating the first known example of a fully connected Gaussian $K$ user interference network with single antenna nodes, real, non-zero and contant channel coefficients, and no propagation delays where the degrees of freedom outerbound is achieved. An analogy is drawn between the propagation delay based interference alignment examples and the deterministic channel model which also allows similar constructions for the 2 user $X$ channel as well.
