In order to support a massive number of resource-constrained Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices and machine-type devices, it is crucial to design a future beyond 5G/6G wireless networks in an energy-efficient manner while incorporating suitable network coverage expansion methodologies. To this end, this paper proposes a novel two-hop hybrid active-and-passive relaying scheme to facilitate simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) considering both time-switching (TS) and power-splitting (PS) receiver architectures, while dynamically modelling the involved dual-hop time-period (TP) metric. An optimization problem is formulated to jointly optimize the throughput, harvested energy, and transmit power of a SWIPT-enabled system with the proposed hybrid scheme. In this regard, we provide two distinct ways to obtain suitable solutions based on the Lagrange dual technique and Dinkelbach method assisted convex programming, respectively, where both the approaches yield an appreciable solution within polynomial computational time. The experimental results are obtained by directly solving the primal problem using a non-linear optimizer. Our numerical results in terms of weighted utility function show the superior performance of the proposed hybrid scheme over passive repeater-only and active relay-only schemes, while also depicting their individual performance benefits over the corresponding benchmark SWIPT systems with the fixed-TP.

We consider a novel hybrid active-passive reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) air-ground communications system. Unlike the conventional passive RIS, the hybrid RIS is equipped with a few active elements to not only reflect but also amplify the incident signals for significant performance improvement. Towards a fairness design, our goal is to maximize the minimum rate among users through jointly optimizing the location and power allocation of the UAV and the RIS reflecting/amplifying coefficients. The formulated optimization problem is nonconvex and challenging, which is efficiently solved via block coordinate descend and successive convex approximation. Our numerical results show that a hybrid RIS requires only 4 active elements and a power budget of 0 dBm to achieve an improvement of 52.08% in the minimum rate, while that achieved by a conventional passive RIS with the same total number of elements is only 18.06%.

Integrating massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) into satellite network is regarded as an effective strategy to improve the spectral efficiency as well as the coverage of satellite communication. However, the inevitable intra-system and inter-system interference deteriorate the total performance of system. In this paper, we consider precoding in the 5G Satellite Integrated Network (5GSIN) with the deployment of Massive MIMO and propagation of shared millimeter-wave (mmWave) link. Taking the requirements of both frequency efficiency and energy assumption into account, a hybrid analog and digital pre-coding scheme in the specific scenario of 5GSIN is proposed. We model sum rate maximization problem for both of satellite and terrestrial system that incorporates maximum power constrains and minimum achievable rate requirements and formulate to a convex power allocation problem with Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) norm and Logarithmic Linearization method. In order to balance between performance and complexity, we propose an analog and digital separated hybrid precoding algorithm to mitigate intra-system interference. Moreover, an iterative power allocation with interference mitigation algorithm is also devised to mitigate interference from satellite to terrestrial link so that power allocation can be executed by generalized iterative algorithm. Simulation results show that our proposed hybrid precoding algorithm in 5GSIN can improve the overall spectral efficiency with a small amount of iterations. [less ▲]

Hybrid analog-digital transceiver designs for mmwave amplify-and-forward relaying systems

Hybrid Analog/Digital (A/D) pre-/post-coding solutions aim at the reduction of the hardware complexity and power consumption of a system employed with a large-scale antenna array functioning in the millimeter (mmWave) band. This is achieved by enabling the transceiver design with fewer Radio Frequency (RF) chains than antennas. In this work, hybrid A/D transceiver designs are developed for a relay assisted mmWave system that aims at data transmission from a source to a destination node via the well-known amplify-and-forward cooperative protocol. To that end, hybrid solutions are proposed for the joint design of the source and relay nodes precoders and for the destination ones, as well. Contrariwise to existing literature approaches that develop codebook-based solutions and exhibit limitations on the performance, the proposed approaches are codebook-free and present significantly improved spectral efficiency, as it is verified via the presented simulations.

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is promising for low earth orbit (LEO) satellite communications due to the potential in enhancing the spectral efficiency. However, the conventional fully digital precoding architectures might lead to high implementation complexity and energy consumption. In this paper, hybrid analog/digital precoding solutions are developed for the downlink operation in LEO massive MIMO satellite communications, by exploiting the slow-varying statistical channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter. First, we formulate the hybrid precoder design as an energy efficiency (EE) maximization problem by considering both the continuous and discrete phase shift networks for implementing the analog precoder. The cases of both the fully and the partially connected architectures are considered. Since the EE optimization problem is nonconvex, it is in general difficult to solve. To make the EE maximization problem tractable, we apply a closed-form tight upper bound to approximate the ergodic rate. Then, we develop an efficient algorithm to obtain the fully digital precoders. Based on which, we further develop two different efficient algorithmic solutions to compute the hybrid precoders for the fully and the partially connected architectures, respectively. Simulation results show that the proposed approaches achieve significant EE performance gains over the existing baselines, especially when the discrete phase shift network is employed for analog precoding.
