Summary: In this paper, the power domain cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is studied in underlay cognitive radio networks, which can achieve higher throughput compared to conventional orthogonal multiple access (OMA). The proposed intelligent user-selection and mode-switching scheme ensures high throughput for far-users while maintaining desired performance for near-users. The study shows that by broadcasting the interference temperature limit (ITL) in every coherence interval, significant gains in throughput can be obtained.

Summary: In this work, we investigate short-packet communications for multiple-input multiple-output underlay cognitive multihop relay networks. We derive closed-form expressions of the end-to-end block error rate for performance evaluation. Based on the analytical results, we adapt machine learning-aided estimators to predict the system performance. Moreover, we obtain closed-form expressions for the optimal power-allocation and relay-location strategies to minimize the asymptotic end-to-end block error rate.

Summary: This paper analyzes the performance of a multicarrier underlay cognitive radio system with successive interference cancellation (SIC) method for detection. The system guarantees quality of service (QoS) to the primary user (PU) while maximizing the throughput of the secondary user (SU) through power allocation strategy. Analytical expressions for outage probability at SU and average symbol error rates (SER) per subcarrier of PU and SU are derived and validated using Monte-Carlo simulations. Comparison of detection schemes shows that SIC with channel estimation based on minimum-mean-squared-error (MMSE) performs better. The proposed system ensures sufficient throughput to SU without the need for opportunistic sensing.

Summary: This study investigates the performance of primary and secondary networks in underlay cognitive radio networks using incremental amplify and forward relaying under imperfect channel state information. It is found that the impact of imperfect CSI on the interference probability of primary networks is significant. To address this issue, reducing the transmit power at the secondary transmitters is proposed as a solution, although it may increase the outage probability at the secondary networks. A power control coefficient is suggested to balance the performance between the two networks. Monte-Carlo simulations are conducted to validate the accuracy of the proposed mathematical frameworks.

Summary: XL-MIMO technology is a promising solution for providing Tbps data transmission and stable access service in beyond fifth/sixth generation mobile communications. However, the large antenna array aperture causes the channel near-field effect, leading to degraded data rate and challenges in practical communication systems. Combining XL-MIMO with multi-panel array structure, we propose multi-panel XL-MIMO for massive IoT access, which exhibits superior performance with joint active user detection and channel estimation using compressed sensing and AMP-EM-MMV algorithm.

Summary: This paper investigates the performance analysis of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) using time switching (TS) protocol-based amplify-and-forward (AF) dual-hop mixed radio-frequency/free-space optic (RF/FSO) coded and uncoded communication system. The study focuses on the use of One-Step Majority-Logic Decodable (OSMLD) codes at the source and a majority logic decoding algorithm (MLGD) at the destination, as well as maximal-ratio combining and SWIPT/TS techniques at the relay. The analysis considers Nakagami-m model for the RF link and Maalaga-M atmospheric turbulence with pointing errors for the second-hop. Closed-form and asymptotic formulations for the average bit error probability (ABEP) are obtained, along with average channel capacity analysis, and the results are validated through computer-based Monte Carlo simulations.

Summary: Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) are crucial in next-generation communication systems, but designing the RIS phases based on instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is challenging due to short coherent time of the channel. Therefore, we propose a novel algorithm that optimizes beamforming at the base station (BS), power allocation of users, and phase shifts at RIS elements based on channel statistics in massive multiple input multiple output systems to maximize the minimum signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) for fair operation among users. By leveraging the asymptotic deterministic equivalent of the minimum SINR that depends only on channel statistics, the proposed algorithm significantly reduces computational complexity and controlling data between BS and RIS for phase updates. This setup is also beneficial for EMF-aware systems with constraints on user exposure to EMF. Numerical results demonstrate over 100% gain in minimum SINR compared to a system with random RIS phase shifts when considering 40 RIS elements, 20 BS antennas, and 10 users.

Summary: This article investigates the individual and joint effects of transmitter and receiver in-phase and quadrature imbalances on the bit-error-rate performance of the uplink IM-OFDMA scheme. A preamble-based estimation and compensation method is proposed to mitigate the detrimental effect of IQI. The results reveal that IQI can cause an error floor in the BER performance of IM-OFDMA schemes, but the proposed method improves the BER performance compared to the case of no IQI.
