    With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), short packet transmissions will dominate the future wireless communication. However, traditional coherent demodulation and channel estimation schemes require large pilot overhead, which may be highly inefficient for short packets in multipath fading scenarios. This paper proposes a novel pilot-free short packet structure based on the association of modulation on conjugate-reciprocal zeros (MOCZ) and tail-biting convolutional codes (TBCC), where a noncoherent demodulation and decoding scheme is designed without the channel state information (CSI) at the transceivers. We provide a construction method of constellation sets and demodulation rule for M-ary MOCZ. By deriving low complexity log-likelihood ratios (LLR) for M-ary MOCZ, we offer a reasonable balance between energy and bandwidth efficiency for joint coding and modulation scheme. Simulation results show that our proposed scheme can attain significant performance and throughput gains compared to the pilot-based coherent modulation scheme over multipath fading channels.

    This paper proposes a sub-signal channel modulation scheme for hitless redundancy switching systems that offers highly confidential communications. A hitless redundancy switching system prevents frame loss by using multiple routes to forward the same frame. Although most studies on redundancy switching systems deal with frame duplication, elimination, and selection of redundant paths for the main signal, we focus on the transmission of the sub-signal channel. We introduce mathematical expressions to model the transmission rate and bit error rate of the sub-signal channel. To evaluate the validity of the models, we conduct numerical simulations to calculate the sub-signal transmission rate, main-signal transmission rate, and bit error rate of the sub-signal channel at physical transmission rates of 100Mb/s, 1Gb/s, and 10Gb/s. We discuss how to design sub-signal channel modulation on the basis of the evaluation results. We further discuss applications of sub-signal modulation in terms of network size and jitter.

    As a key technology of 5G, NFV has attracted much attention. In addition, monitoring plays an important role, and can be widely used for virtual network function placement and resource optimisation. The existing monitoring methods focus on the monitoring load without considering they own resources needed. This raises a unique challenge: jointly optimising the NFV monitoring systems and minimising their monitoring load at runtime. The objective is to enhance the gain in real-time monitoring metrics at minimum monitoring costs. In this context, we propose a novel NFV monitoring solution, namely, iMon (Monitoring by inferring), that jointly optimises the monitoring process and reduces resource consumption. We formalise the monitoring process into a multitarget regression problem and propose three regression models. These models are implemented by a deep neural network, and an experimental platform is built to prove their availability and effectiveness. Finally, experiments also show that monitoring resource requirements are reduced, and the monitoring load is just 0.6% of that of the monitoring tool cAdvisor on our dataset.

    This paper presents dual bands and dual polarization reflectarrays for 5G millimeter wave applications. The frequency bands of 28GHz and 39GHz are allocated for 5G to realize high speed data transmission. However, these high frequency bands create coverage holes in which no link between base station and receivers is possible. Reflectarray has gained attention for reducing the size and number of coverage holes. This paper proposes a unit cell with swastika and the patch structure to construct the dual bands reflectrray operating at 28GHz and 39GHz by supercell. This paper also presents the detailed design procedure of the dual-bands reflectarray by supercell. The reflectarray is experimentally validated by a bistatic radar cross section measurement system. The experimental results are compared with simulation and reflection angle agreement is observed.

    The 5th-generation mobile communication uses multi-element array antennas in not only base stations but also mobile terminals. In order to design multi-element array antennas efficiently, it is important to acquire the characteristics of the direction of arrival (DOA) and direction of departure (DOD), and a highly accurate and simple measurement method is required. This paper proposes a highly accurate and simple method to measure DOA and DOD by applying synthetic aperture (SA) processed at both Rx and Tx sides. It is also shown that the addition of beam scanning to the proposed method can reduce the measurement time while maintaining the peak detection resolution. Moreover, experiments in an anechoic chamber and a shielded room using actual wave sources confirm that DOA and DOD can be detected with high accuracy.

    Electromagnetic scattering in a coaxial cable having two flanges and concentric grooves is studied. The associated Weber-Orr transform is used to represent electromagnetic fields in an infinitely long cavity, and the mode-matching method is used to enforce boundary continuity. S-parameters obtained by our approach are compared with the reference solutions, and the characteristics are discussed when geometric parameters are varied. The results show that the proposed model provides cost effective and accurate solutions to the problem.

    Compared with the unicast scenario, X channels with multicast messaging can support richer transmission scenarios. The transmission efficiency of the wireless multicast X channel is an important and open problem. This article studies the degrees of freedom of a propagation-delay based multicast X channel with two transmitters and arbitrary receivers, where each transmitter sends K different messages and each receiver desires K - 1 of them from each transmitter. The cyclic polynomial approach is adopted for modeling and analysis. The DoF upper bound is analyzed and shown to be unreachable. Then a suboptimal scheme with one extra time-slot cycle is proposed, which uses the cyclic interference alignment method and achieves a DoF of K - 1. Finally, the feasibility conditions in the Euclidean space are derived and the potential applications are demonstrated for underwater acoustic and terrestrial radio communications.

    Crowdsensing-based spectrum detection (CSD) is promising to enable full-coverage radio resource availability for the increasingly connected machines in the Internet of Things (IoT) networks. The current CSD scheme consumes a lot of energy and network resources for local sensing, processing, and distributed data reporting for each crowdsensing device. Furthermore, when the amount of reported data is large, the data fusion implemented at the requestor can easily cause high latency. For improving efficiencies in both energy and network resources, this paper proposes a green CSD (GCSD) paradigm. The ambient backscatter (AmB) is used to enable a battery-free mode of operation in which the received spectrum data is reported directly through backscattering without local processing. The energy for backscattering can be provided by ambient radio frequency (RF) sources. Then, relying on air computation (AirComp), the data fusion can be implemented during the backscattering process and over the air by utilizing the summation property of wireless channel. This paper illustrates the model and the implementation process of the GCSD paradigm. Closed-form expressions of detection metrics are derived for the proposed GCSD. Simulation results verify the correctness of the theoretical derivation and demonstrate the green properties of the GCSD paradigm.

    In order to improve the frequency band utilization and avoid mutual interference between signals, the BD3 satellite signals adopt Binary Offset Carrier (BOC) modulation. On one hand, BOC modulation has a narrow main peak width and strong anti-interference ability; on the other hand, the phenomenon of false acquisition locking caused by the multi-peak characteristic of BOC modulation itself needs to be resolved. In this context, this paper proposes a new BOC(n,n) unambiguous acquisition algorithm based on segmentation reconstruction. The algorithm is based on splitting the local BOC signal into four parts in each subcarrier period. The branch signal and the received signal are correlated with the received signal to generate four branch correlation signals. After a series of combined reconstructions, the final signal detection function completely eliminates secondary peaks. A simulation shows that the algorithm can completely eliminate the sub-peak interference for the BOC signals modulated by subcarriers with different phase. The characteristics of narrow correlation peak are retained. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm has superior performance in detection probability and peak-to-average ratio.
