• Joint energy and rate allocation for successive interference cancellation in the finite blocklength regime 

  Molina Oliveras, Francesc; Sala Álvarez, José; Villares Piera, Nemesio Javier; Rey Micolau, Francesc (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)
  Conference lecture
  Open Access

  This work addresses the optimization of the network spectral efficiency (SE) under successive interference cancellation (SIC) at a given blocklength n. We adopt a proof-of-concept satellite scenario where network users can ...
• Decentralized shaping for pilot generation and detection in opportunistic communications 

  Borràs Pino, Jordi; Vázquez Grau, Gregorio (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
  Conference report

  This paper deals with the distributed subspace agreement problem for opportunistic communications in time division duplex (TDD) distributed networks. Since scenario-adapted opportunistic transmission schemes rely on locally ...
• Low-complexity switching network design for hybrid precoding in mmWave MIMO systems 

  Molina Oliveras, Francesc; Borràs Pino, Jordi (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
  Conference report

  This paper deals with the design of a hybrid precoder for millimeter-wave MIMO systems. For the sake of concreteness, we consider an analog processing stage composed of a switching network with analog combining. The main ...
• Energy efficient transmit-receive spatial modulation for uplink-downlink large-scale MIMO systems

  Wideband receive spatial modulation with time domain pre-equalizer for large MIMO systems 

  Raafat Hosny Mohamed Fahm, Ahmed; Agustín de Dios, Adrián; Vidal Manzano, José (2018)
  Conference report
  Open Access

  Receive spatial modulation (RSM) schemes are promising for massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) systems at millimeter wave (mmWave) bands because they require reduced complexity and low consumption hardware at the ...

  Channel-aware energy allocation for throughput maximization in massive low-rate multiple access 

  Molina Oliveras, Francesc; Sala Álvarez, José; Rey Micolau, Francesc; Villares Piera, Nemesio Javier (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
  Conference report
  Open Access

  A multiple access (MA) optimization technique for massive low-rate direct-sequence spread spectrum communications is analyzed in this work. A dense network of users transmitting at the same rate to a common central node ...
• A proof of de Bruijn identity based on generalized Price’s theorem 

  Riba Sagarra, Jaume; Cabrera Estanyol, Ferran de (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
  Conference lecture

  This paper shows that de Bruijn identity, which relates entropy with Fisher information, can be obtained as a particular case of an immediate generalization of Price’s theorem, which is a tool used in the analysis of ...
• Multi-satellite cycle-slip detection and exclusion using the noise subspace of residual dynamics 

  Riba Sagarra, Jaume; Cabrera Estanyol, Ferran de; Juan Zornoza, José Miguel (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018)
  Conference report
  Restricted access - publisher's policy

  Real-time detection of cycle-slips on undifferenced carrier-phase measurements is an important task to properly exclude wrong phase trackers from precise positioning algorithms. The detection is especially challenging in ...

  On the coordination of base stations in ultra dense cellular networks 

  Aravanis, Alexios; Muñoz Medina, Olga; Pascual Iserte, Antonio; di Renzo, Marco (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
  Conference report
  Open Access

  Ultra dense networks (UDNs) allow for efficient spatial reuse of the spectrum, giving rise to substantial capacity and power gains. However, recent findings have demonstrated that the reduction of inter-site distances after ...
• Polar coding for common message only wiretap broadcast channel 

  Olmo Alòs, Jaume del; Rodríguez Fonollosa, Javier (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
  Conference lecture
  Restricted access - publisher's policy

  A polar coding scheme is proposed for the Wiretap Broadcast Channel with two legitimate receivers and one eavesdropper. We consider a model in which the transmitter wishes to send a private and a confidential message that ...
• Publicness, privacy and confidentiality in the single-serving quantum broadcast channel 

  Salek Shishavan, Farzin; Hsieh, Min-Hsiu; Rodríguez Fonollosa, Javier (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
  Conference lecture
  Restricted access - publisher's policy

  The 2-receiver broadcast channel with primary and third-party receivers is studied. The messages are classified into public, private and confidential. The messages in the public class are messages intended for both receivers. ...
