  5. CompetencesandOffers for cooperation

  6. Competence # 1Coded MIMO-OFDM • Design of improved MIMO radio interfaces for OFDM modulated systems • Space-time bit-interleaved coded modulation • Performance evaluation • Transmitter design • Efficient receiver implementation

  7. Offers for Cooperation # 1Coded MIMO-OFDM • Coding for OFDMA systems • Besides OFDM, we are interested to other schemes • Single carrier transmissions with cyclic prefix insertion (CP-SC) • Multicarrier modulators adopting shaping filters (Shaped-OFDM, Filtered Multitone) • Comparisons among these solutions • Performance evaluation • Transmitter and receiver design • Low complexity solutions • Extension to OFDMA environments

  8. Competence # 2Single CarrierMIMO • Linear and non-linear precoding schemes for the MIMO broadcast channel (MIMO-BC) • Achieving performance close to “dirty paper” coding • Vector precoding with peak power reduction by modified sphere encoder • Study of the optimal (max sum capacity / max min SINR) beamformer for lattice precoding schemes • Comparison between Tomlinson-Harashima based precoders and vector-perturbation techniques for MIMO channels • Joint activity with EURECOM (G. Caire) • Low-complexity joint detectors for SC-MIMO systems • Frequency-domain algorithms for multi-stream interference cancellation (BLAST)

  9. Competence # 3MIMO MC-CDMA • Design of receivers for MC-CDMA systems • Soft interference cancellation techniques • Pre-equalization techniques for MC-CDMA systems • Multi-user pre-equalization for downlink MISO • Single user pre-equalization for uplink • DSP platform for MC-CDMA • Software defined radio platform with • DSP Texas Instruments C6400 • Dual ADC and DAC • FPGA

  10. Offers for Cooperation # 2-3MIMO MC-CDMA • Receivers design for MIMO multi-user MC-CDMA systems • Investigation on V-BLAST receivers for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) extended to multi-user MC-CDMA systems • In particular, the work will focus on finding suitable ordering criteria to demodulate symbols and streams of each user • In uplink coded MC-CDMA systems, possible schemes to iteratively combine V-BLAST detection and decoding will be investigated (turbo principle) • Pre-coded MIMO MC-CDMA systems • Investigation on non-linear precoding schemes for downlink
