High Altitude Platform Station (HAPS) has the potential to provide global wireless connectivity and data services such as high-speed wireless backhaul, industrial Internet of things (IoT), and public safety for large areas not served by terrestrial networks. A unified HAPS design is desired to support various use cases and a wide range of requirements. In this paper, we present two architecture designs of the HAPS system: i) repeater based HAPS, and ii) base station based HAPS, which are both viable technical solutions. The energy efficiency is analyzed and compared between the two architectures using consumption factor theory. The system performance of these two architectures is evaluated through Monte Carlo simulations and is characterized in metrics of spectral efficiency using LTE band 1 for both single-cell and multi-cell cases. Both designs can provide good downlink spectral efficiency and coverage, while the uplink coverage is significantly limited by UE transmit power and antenna gain. Using directional antennas at the UEs can improve the system performance for both downlink and uplink.

Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding (GRAND) is a recently proposed Maximum Likelihood (ML) decoding technique. Irrespective of the structure of the error correcting code, GRAND tries to guess the noise that corrupted the codeword in order to deco de any linear error-correcting block code. GRAND Markov Order (GRAND-MO) is a variant of GRAND that is useful to decode error correcting code transmitted over communication channels with memory which are vulnerable to burst noise. Usually, interleavers and de-interleavers are used in communication systems to mitigate the effects of channel memory. Interleaving and de-interleaving introduce undesirable latency, which increases with channel memory. To prevent this added latency penalty, GRAND-MO can be directly used on the hard demodulated channel signals. This work reports the first GRAND-MO hardware architecture which achieves an average throughput of up to $52$ Gbps and $64$ Gbps for a code length of $128$ and $79$ respectively. Compared to the GRANDAB, hard-input variant of GRAND, the proposed architecture achieves $3$ dB gain in decoding performance for a target FER of $10^{-5}$. Similarly, comparing the GRAND-MO decoder with a decoder tailored for a $(79,64)$ BCH code showed that the proposed architecture achieves 33$%$ higher worst case throughput and $2$ dB gain in decoding performance.

In this paper, we propose a scheme called beam-nulling for MIMO adaptation. In the beam-nulling scheme, the eigenvector of the weakest subchannel is fed back and then signals are sent over a generated subspace orthogonal to the weakest subchannel. Th eoretical analysis and numerical results show that the capacity of beam-nulling is closed to the optimal water-filling at medium SNR. Additionally, signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) of MMSE receiver is derived for beam-nulling. Then the paper presents the associated average bit-error rate (BER) of beam-nulling numerically which is verified by simulation. Simulation results are also provided to compare beam-nulling with beamforming. To improve performance further, beam-nulling is concatenated with linear dispersion code. Simulation results are also provided to compare the concatenated beam-nulling scheme with the beamforming scheme at the same data rate. Additionally, the existing beamforming and new proposed beam-nulling can be extended if more than one eigenvector is available at the transmitter. The new extended schemes are called multi-dimensional (MD) beamforming and MD beam-nulling. Theoretical analysis and numerical results in terms of capacity are also provided to evaluate the new extended schemes. Simulation results show that the MD scheme with LDC can outperform the MD scheme with STBC significantly when the data rate is high.
In this letter, we study multiuser communication systems enabled by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that is equipped with a directional antenna of adjustable beamwidth. We propose a fly-hover-and-communicate protocol where the ground terminals (GTs) are partitioned into disjoint clusters that are sequentially served by the UAV as it hovers above the corresponding cluster centers. We jointly optimize the UAVs flying altitude and antenna beamwidth for throughput optimization in three fundamental multiuser communication models, namely UAV-enabled downlink multicasting (MC), downlink broadcasting (BC), and uplink multiple access (MAC). Our results show that the optimal UAV altitude and antenna beamwidth critically depend on the communication model considered.
In this paper the advantages provided by multicell processing of signals transmitted by mobile terminals (MTs) which are received via dedicated relay terminals (RTs) are studied. It is assumed that each RT is capable of full-duplex operation and rece ives the transmission of adjacent relay terminals. Focusing on intra-cell TDMA and non-fading channels, a simplified relay-aided uplink cellular model based on a model introduced by Wyner is considered. Assuming a nomadic application in which the RTs are oblivious to the MTs codebooks, a form of distributed compress-and-forward (CF) scheme with decoder side information is employed. The per-cell sum-rate of the CF scheme is derived and is given as a solution of a simple fixed point equation. This achievable rate reveals that the CF scheme is able to completely eliminate the inter-relay interference, and it approaches a ``cut-set-like upper bound for strong RTs transmission power. The CF rate is also shown to surpass the rate of an amplify-and-forward scheme via numerical calculations for a wide range of the system parameters.
In this paper the benefits provided by multi-cell processing of signals transmitted by mobile terminals which are received via dedicated relay terminals (RTs) are assessed. Unlike previous works, each RT is assumed here to be capable of full-duplex o peration and receives the transmission of adjacent relay terminals. Focusing on intra-cell TDMA and non-fading channels, a simplified uplink cellular model introduced by Wyner is considered. This framework facilitates analytical derivation of the per-cell sum-rate of multi-cell and conventional single-cell receivers. In particular, the analysis is based on the observation that the signal received at the base stations can be interpreted as the outcome of a two-dimensional linear time invariant system. Numerical results are provided as well in order to provide further insight into the performance benefits of multi-cell processing with relaying.
