We present a joint source-channel multiple description (JSC-MD) framework for resource-constrained network communications (e.g., sensor networks), in which one or many deprived encoders communicate a Markov source against bit errors and erasure errors to many heterogeneous decoders, some powerful and some deprived. To keep the encoder complexity at minimum, the source is coded into K descriptions by a simple multiple description quantizer (MDQ) with neither entropy nor channel coding. The code diversity of MDQ and the path diversity of the network are exploited by decoders to correct transmission errors and improve coding efficiency. A key design objective is resource scalability: powerful nodes in the network can perform JSC-MD distributed estimation/decoding under the criteria of maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) or minimum mean-square error (MMSE), while primitive nodes resort to simpler MD decoding, all working with the same MDQ code. The application of JSC-MD to distributed estimation of hidden Markov models in a sensor network is demonstrated. The proposed JSC-MD MAP estimator is an algorithm of the longest path in a weighted directed acyclic graph, while the JSC-MD MMSE decoder is an extension of the well-known forward-backward algorithm to multiple descriptions. Both algorithms simultaneously exploit the source memory, the redundancy of the fixed-rate MDQ, and the inter-description correlations. They outperform the existing hard-decision MDQ decoders by large margins (up to 8dB). For Gaussian Markov sources, the complexity of JSC-MD distributed MAP sequence estimation can be made as low as that of typical single description Viterbi-type algorithms.

We address the connection between the multiple-description (MD) problem and Delta-Sigma quantization. The inherent redundancy due to oversampling in Delta-Sigma quantization, and the simple linear-additive noise model resulting from dithered lattice
quantization, allow us to construct a symmetric and time-invariant MD coding scheme. We show that the use of a noise shaping filter makes it possible to trade off central distortion for side distortion. Asymptotically as the dimension of the lattice vector quantizer and order of the noise shaping filter approach infinity, the entropy rate of the dithered Delta-Sigma quantization scheme approaches the symmetric two-channel MD rate-distortion function for a memoryless Gaussian source and MSE fidelity criterion, at any side-to-central distortion ratio and any resolution. In the optimal scheme, the infinite-order noise shaping filter must be minimum phase and have a piece-wise flat power spectrum with a single jump discontinuity. An important advantage of the proposed design is that it is symmetric in rate and distortion by construction, so the coding rates of the descriptions are identical and there is therefore no need for source splitting.
A clustered base transceiver station (BTS) coordination strategy is proposed for a large cellular MIMO network, which includes full intra-cluster coordination to enhance the sum rate and limited inter-cluster coordination to reduce interference for t
he cluster edge users. Multi-cell block diagonalization is used to coordinate the transmissions across multiple BTSs in the same cluster. To satisfy per-BTS power constraints, three combined precoder and power allocation algorithms are proposed with different performance and complexity tradeoffs. For inter-cluster coordination, the coordination area is chosen to balance fairness for edge users and the achievable sum rate. It is shown that a small cluster size (about 7 cells) is sufficient to obtain most of the sum rate benefits from clustered coordination while greatly relieving channel feedback requirement. Simulations show that the proposed coordination strategy efficiently reduces interference and provides a considerable sum rate gain for cellular MIMO networks.
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is envisioned to be one of the most beneficial technologies for next generation wireless networks due to its enhanced performance compared to other conventional radio access techniques. Although the principle of
NOMA allows multiple users to use the same frequency resource, due to decoding complication, information of users in practical systems cannot be decoded successfully if many of them use the same channel. Consequently, assigned spectrum of a system needs to be split into multiple subchannels in order to multiplex that among many users. Uplink resource allocation for such systems is more complicated compared to the downlink ones due to the individual users power constraints and discrete nature of subchannel assignment. In this paper, we propose an uplink subchannel and power allocation scheme for such systems. Due to the NP-hard and non-convex nature of the problem, the complete solution, that optimizes both subchannel assignment and power allocation jointly, is intractable. Consequently, we solve the problem in two steps. First, based on the assumption that the maximal power level of a user is subdivided equally among its allocated subchannels, we apply many-to-many matching model to solve the subchannel-user mapping problem. Then, in order to enhance the performance of the system further, we apply iterative water-filling and geometric programming two power allocation techniques to allocate power in each allocated subchannel-user slot optimally. Extensive simulation has been conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. The results demonstrate that the proposed scheme always outperforms all existing works in this context under all possible scenarios.
The mobile edge computing framework offers the opportunity to reduce the energy that devices must expend to complete computational tasks. The extent of that energy reduction depends on the nature of the tasks, and on the choice of the multiple access
scheme. In this paper, we first address the uplink communication resource allocation for offloading systems that exploit the full capabilities of the multiple access channel (FullMA). For indivisible tasks we provide a closed-form optimal solution of the energy minimization problem when a given set of users with different latency constraints are offloading, and a tailored greedy search algorithm for finding a good set of offloading users. For divisible tasks we develop a low-complexity algorithm to find a stationary solution. To highlight the impact of the choice of multiple access scheme, we also consider the TDMA scheme, which, in general, cannot exploit the full capabilities of the channel, and we develop low-complexity optimal resource allocation algorithms for indivisible and divisible tasks under that scheme. The energy reduction facilitated by FullMA is illustrated in our numerical experiments. Further, those results show that the proposed algorithms outperform existing algorithms in terms of energy consumption and computational cost.
The increasingly diversified Quality-of-Service (QoS) requirements envisioned for future wireless networks call for more flexible and inclusive multiple access techniques for supporting emerging applications and communication scenarios. To achieve th
is, we propose a multi-dimensional multiple access (MDMA) protocol to meet individual User Equipments (UEs) unique QoS demands while utilizing multi-dimensional radio resources cost-effectively. In detail, the proposed scheme consists of two new aspects, i.e., selection of a tailored multiple access mode for each UE while considering the UE-specific radio resource utilization cost; and multi-dimensional radio resource allocation among coexisting UEs under dynamic network conditions. To reduce the UE-specific resource utilization cost, the base station (BS) organizes UEs with disparate multi-domain resource constraints as UE coalition by considering each UEs specific resource availability, perceived quality, and utilization capability. Each UE within a coalition could utilize its preferred radio resources, which leads to low utilization cost while avoiding resource-sharing conflicts with remaining UEs. Furthermore, to meet UE-specific QoS requirements and varying resource conditions at the UE side, the multi-dimensional radio resource allocation among coexisting UEs is formulated as an optimization problem to maximize the summation of cost-aware utility functions of all UEs. A solution to solve this NP-hard problem with low complexity is developed using the successive convex approximation and the Lagrange dual decomposition methods. The effectiveness of our proposed scheme is validated by numerical simulation and performance comparison with state-of-the-art schemes. In particular, the simulation results demonstrate that our proposed scheme outperforms these benchmark schemes by large margins.
