Causal Linear Topological Filters over a 2-Simplex

Georg Essl

Topological filters via sheaves generalize the classical linear translation-invariant filter theory by attaching the filter computation locally to a simplicial topological space. This paper develops topological filters for causal signal flow over a 2-simplex. Our construction retains the established construction for 1-simplices and we show how an apparent conflict in the sheaf assignment can be resolved by a concurrent extension, which introduces an auxiliary 1-simplex that computes the resolution. Furthermore, we discuss how singularities formed by double cone connections can be resolved.

Polarimetric Room Electromagnetics

Troels Pedersen, Ramoni Adeogun

A polarimetric model for the power delay spectrum for inroom communication is proposed. The proposed model describes the gradual depolarization of the signal with delay. The model is based on the theory of room electromagnetics, specifically the mirror source approach, which is straightforwardly generalized to the polarimetric case. Compared to the previously known unipolarized room electromagnetic models, which are contained as a special case, the new model holds one additional parameter describing the polarization leakage per wall bounce. \tprev{The proposed model is found to fit well to two sets of polarimetric data one mm-wave and one cm-wave measurements

CAIM: Cooperative Angle of Arrival Estimation using the Ising Method

Shiva Akbari, Shahrokh Valaee

This paper proposes a cooperative angle-of-arrival(AoA) estimation, taking advantage of co-processing channel state information (CSI) from a group of access points that receive signals of the same source. Since received signals are sparse, we use Compressive Sensing (CS) to address the AoA estimation problem. We formulate this problem as a penalized l0-norm minimization, reformulate it as an Ising energy problem, and solve it using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Simulation results show that our proposed method outperforms the existing methods in the literature.

A Data-driven Optimization of First-order Regular Perturbation Coefficients for Fiber Nonlinearities

Astrid Barreiro, Gabriele Liga, Alex Alvarado

We study the performance of gradient-descent optimization to estimate the coefficients of the discrete-time first-order regular perturbation (FRP). With respect to numerically computed coefficients, the optimized coefficients yield a model that (i) extends the FRP range of validity, and (ii) reduces the model's complexity.

Regularized Zero-Forcing for Multiantenna Broadcast Channels with User Selection

Zijian Wang, Wen Chen

A multiantenna multiuser broadcast channel with transmitter beamforming and user selection is considered. Different from the conventional works, we consider imperfect channel state information (CSI) which is a practical scenario for multiuser broadcast channels. We propose a robust regularized zero-forcing (RRZF) beamforming at the base station. Then we show that the RRZF outperforms zero-forcing (ZF) and regularized ZF (RZF) beamforming even as the number of users grows to infinity. Simulation results validate the advantage of the proposed robust RZF beamforming.

Design of Convergence-Optimized Non-binary LDPC Codes over Binary Erasure Channel

Yang Yu, Wen Chen, Lili Wei

In this letter, we present a hybrid iterative decoder for non-binary low density parity check (LDPC) codes over binary erasure channel (BEC), based on which the recursion of the erasure probability is derived to design non-binary LDPC codes with convergence-optimized degree distributions. The resulting one-step decoding tree is cycle-free and achieves lower decoding complexity. Experimental studies show that the proposed convergence-optimization algorithm accelerates the convergence process by 33%.

Magnetless Circulators Based on Synthetic Angular-Momentum Bias: Recent Advances and Applications

Ahmed Kord, Andrea Alu

In this paper, we discuss recent progress in magnet-free non-reciprocal structures based on a synthetic form of angular momentum bias imparted via spatiotemporal modulation. We discuss how such components can support metrics of performance comparable with traditional magnetic-biased ferrite devices, while at the same time offering distinct advantages in terms of reduced size, weight, and cost due to the elimination of magnetic bias. We further provide an outlook on potential applications and future directions based on these components, ranging from wireless full-duplex communications to metasurfaces and topological insulators.

Simplifying Karnaugh Maps by Making Groups of a Non-Power-of-Two Number of Elements

Mario Garrido

When we study the Karnaugh map in the switching theory course, we learn that the ones in the map must be combined in groups of $a \times b$ elements, being $a$ and $b$ powers of two. The result is the logic function described as a sum of products. This paper shows that we can also make groups where $a$ and/or $b$ are equal to three. This does not result in a sum of products, but in a logic function that is simpler than the sum of products in terms of logic gates. This idea is extended later in the paper to groups of $2^n-1$ elements.

Faster IVA: Update Rules for Independent Vector Analysis based on Negentropy and the Majorize-Minimize Principle

Andreas Brendel, Walter Kellermann

Algorithms for Blind Source Separation (BSS) of acoustic signals require efficient and fast converging optimization strategies to adapt to nonstationary signal statistics and time-varying acoustic scenarios. In this paper, we derive fast converging update rules from a negentropy perspective, which are based on the Majorize-Minimize (MM) principle and eigenvalue decomposition. The presented update rules are shown to outperform competing state-of-the-art methods in terms of convergence speed at a comparable runtime due to the restriction to unitary demixing matrices. This is demonstrated by experiments with recorded real-world data.

Spatially Informed Independent Vector Analysis

Andreas Brendel, Thomas Haubner, Walter Kellermann

We present a Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) derivation of the Independent Vector Analysis (IVA) algorithm, a blind source separation algorithm, by incorporating a prior over the demixing matrices, relying on a free-field model. In this way, the outer permutation ambiguity of IVA is avoided. The resulting MAP optimization problem is solved by deriving majorize-minimize update rules to achieve convergence speed comparable to the well-known auxiliary function IVA algorithm. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated and compared to a benchmark algorithm using real measurements.

Yuji Ito, Yukihiro Tadokoro

A nanoscale receiver utilizing the cantilever of a carbon nanotube has been developed to detect phase information included in transmitted signals. The existing receiver consists of a phase detector and demodulator which employ a reference wave and carrier signal, respectively. This paper presents a design method to simplify the receiver in structure with enhancing the performance for the phase detection. The reference wave or carrier signal is not needed in the receiver via the proposed design method.

Optimal Measurement Times for a Small Number of Measures of a Brownian Motion over a Finite Period

Alexandre Aksenov, Pierre-Olivier Amblard, Olivier Michel et al.

The measure timetable plays a critical role for the accuracy of the estimator. This article deals with the optimization of the schedule of measures for observing a random process in time using a Kalman filter, when the length of the process is finite and fixed, and a fixed number of measures are available. The measuring devices are allowed to differ. The mean variance of the estimator is chosen as criterion for optimality. The cases of $1$ or $2$ measures are studied in detail, and analytical formulas are provided.

Extreme Learning Machine-Based Receiver for MIMO LED Communications

Dawei Gao, Qinghua Guo

This work concerns receiver design for light-emitting diode (LED) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) communications where the LED nonlinearity can severely degrade the performance of communications. In this paper, we propose an extreme learning machine (ELM) based receiver to jointly handle the LED nonlinearity and cross-LED interference, and a circulant input weight matrix is employed, which significantly reduces the complexity of the receiver with the fast Fourier transform (FFT). It is demonstrated that the proposed receiver can efficiently handle the LED nonlinearity and cross-LED interference.
