Millimeter wave (mm-wave) communication with large-scale antenna array configuration is seen as the key enabler of the next generation communication systems. Accurate knowledge of the mm-wave propagation channels is fundamental and essential. In this contribution, a novel complexity-efficient high resolution parameter estimation (HRPE) algorithm is proposed for the mm-wave channel with large-scale uniform circular array (UCA) applied. The proposed algorithm is able to obtain the high-resolution estimation results of the spherical channel propagation parameters. The prior channel information in the delay domain, i.e., the delay trajectories of individual propagation paths observed across the array elements, is exploited, by combining the high-resolution estimation principle and the phase mode excitation technique. Fast initializations, effective interference cancellations and reduced searching spaces achieved by the proposed schemes significantly decrease the algorithm complexity. Furthermore, the channel spatial non-stationarity in path gain across the array elements is considered for the first time in the literature for propagation parameter estimation, which is beneficial to obtain more realistic results as well as to decrease the complexity. A mm-wave measurement campaign at the frequency band of 28-30 GHz using a large-scale UCA is exploited to demonstrate and validate the proposed HRPE algorithm.

The effect of Kerr-induced optical fiber nonlinearities in C-band (5 THz) EDFA and C+L-band (12.5 THz) Raman-amplified optical communication systems has been studied considering the impact of third-order fiber dispersion. The performance of digital n onlinearity compensation with single channel and 250-GHz bandwidth in both EDFA and Raman amplified systems has been investigated, respectively. The achievable information rates (AIRs) and optimum code rates in each individual transmission channel have been evaluated for the DP-64QAM, the DP-256QAM and the DP-1024QAM modulation formats, both with and without the use of the probabilistic shaping technique. It is found that, for all considered modulation formats, the signal-to-noise ratios, AIRs and code rates exhibit significantly asymmetric behavior about the central channel due to the presence of the third-order dispersion. This provides a new insight that the forward error correction schemes have to be optimized asymmetrically, on a per-channel basis, to maximize the overall throughput.

Performance of parameter estimation is one of the most important issues in array signal processing. The root mean square error, probability of success, resolution probabilities, and computational complexity are frequently used indexes for evaluating the performance of the parameter estimation methods. However, a common characteristic of these indexes is that they are unsupervised indexes, and are passively used for evaluating the estimation results. In other words, these indexes cannot participate in the design of estimation methods. It seems that exploiting a validity supervised index for the parameter estimation that can guide the design of the methods will be an interesting and meaningful work. In this study, we exploit an index to build a supervised learning model of the parameter estimation. With the developed model we refine the signal subspace so as to enhance the performance of the parameter estimation method. The main characteristic of the proposed model is a circularly applied feedback of the estimated parameter for refining the estimated subspace. It is a closed loop and supervised method not reported before. This research opens a specific way for improving the performance of the parameter estimation by a supervised index. However, the proposed method is still unsatisfying in some scopes of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We believe that exploiting a validity index for the parameter estimation in array signal processing is still a general and interesting problem.
Communication at high carrier frequencies such as millimeter wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) requires channel estimation for very large bandwidths at low SNR. Hence, allocating an orthogonal pilot tone for each coherence bandwidth leads to excessiv e number of pilots. We leverage generative adversarial networks (GANs) to accurately estimate frequency selective channels with few pilots at low SNR. The proposed estimator first learns to produce channel samples from the true but unknown channel distribution via training the generative network, and then uses this trained network as a prior to estimate the current channel by optimizing the networks input vector in light of the current received signal. Our results show that at an SNR of -5 dB, even if a transceiver with one-bit phase shifters is employed, our design achieves the same channel estimation error as an LS estimator with SNR = 20 dB or the LMMSE estimator at 2.5 dB, both with fully digital architectures. Additionally, the GAN-based estimator reduces the required number of pilots by about 70% without significantly increasing the estimation error and required SNR. We also show that the generative network does not appear to require retraining even if the number of clusters and rays change considerably.
The upcoming Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs) are expected to have the collecting area required to detect potential biosignature gases in the atmosphere of rocky planets around nearby low-mass stars. Some efforts are currently focusing on searching for molecular oxygen (O2), since O2 is a known biosignature on Earth. One of the most promising methods to search for O2 is transmission spectroscopy in which high-resolution spectroscopy is combined with cross-correlation techniques. In this method, high spectral resolution is required both to resolve the exoplanets O2 lines and to separate them from foreground telluric absorption. While current astronomical spectrographs typically achieve a spectral resolution of 100,000, recent studies show that resolutions of 300,000 -- 400,000 are optimal to detect O2 in the atmosphere of earth analogs with the ELTs. Fabry Perot Interferometer (FPI) arrays have been proposed as a relatively low-cost way to reach these resolutions. In this paper, we present performance results for our 2-FPI array lab prototype, which reaches a resolving power of 600,000. We further discuss the use of multi-cavity etalons (dualons) to be resolution boosters for existing spectrographs.
Free-space optical (FSO) communications has the potential to revolutionize wireless communications due to its advantages of inherent security, high-directionality, high available bandwidth and small physical footprint. The effects of atmospheric turb ulence currently limit the performance of FSO communications. In this letter, we demonstrate a system capable of indiscriminately suppressing the atmospheric phase noise encountered by independent optical signals spread over a range of 7.2 THz (encompassing the full optical C-Band), by actively phase stabilizing a primary optical signal at 193.1 THz (1552 nm). We show ~30 dB of indiscriminate phase stabilization over the full range, down to average phase noise at 10 Hz of -39.6 dBc/Hz when using an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) as a Doppler actuator, and -39.9 dBc/Hz when using a fiber-stretcher as group-delay actuator to provide the phase-stabilization systems feedback. We demonstrate that this suppression is limited by the noise of the independent optical signals, and that the expected achievable suppression is more than 40 dB greater, reaching around -90 dB/Hz at 10 Hz. We conclude that 40 Tbps ground-to-space FSO transmission would be made possible with the combination of our stabilization system and other demonstrated technologies.
