Downlink MAP Decoding for the WiMAX System Identification
In this paper, the authors present an approach that enables the receiver to identify the WiMAX standard among different systems employing the OFDM technique (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) consisting of large number of mutually orthogonal sub carriers. This characteristic provides high robustness against multipath effects. The approach is one of...

A Beamformer for 120-Degree Secterization in LTE Systems
A Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology is the most possible candidate for next generation mobile wireless communications. One impairment of LTE is an interference from neighboring cells, so called Inter-Cell Interference (ICI). A Fractional Frequency Reuse (FFR) has been proposed to handle the problem. Also lately, soft FFR technique has...

Outage Analysis in Multi-User and Multi-Relay Cognitive AF Relaying Networks Using MRC
In this paper, the authors investigate the outage performance in multi-user and multi-relay cognitive amplify-and-forward relaying networks for MinW relay selection scheme over independent non-identically distributed Rayleigh fading channels, where the eavesdropper node may intercept the source message. To guarantee the quality-of-service of the Primary User (PU), both the maximum...

Closed Form Delay/Doppler/Propagation Factor Acquisition for GPS Signals
In this paper, a delay/Doppler/propagation factor acquisition method for Global Positioning System (GPS) signal is proposed. Utilizing the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the Auto-Correlation Function (ACF) for the received signal, together with some mathematical simplifications, a closed form solution is derived to estimate the delay/Doppler/propagation factor for the received...
