Grassmannian Constellation Design for Noncoherent MIMO Systems Using Autoencoders

Abstract

In this letter, we propose an autoencoder (AE) for designing Grassmannian constellations in noncoherent (NC) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. To guarantee the properties of Grassmannian constellations, the proposed AE constructs the transmitted symbols following an unitary space-time modulation. It penalizes the difference between input and output symbols in terms of cross entropy during the training, which is regarded as a generic optimization method. The constellations learned by the proposed AE have substantial symbol error rate (SER) performance gains compared to the non-Grassmannian constellations and conventionally constructed Grassmannian constellations in high SNR regime. The resulting Grassmannian constellation of the proposed AE achieves higher diversity than the non-Grassmannian constellation in i.i.d. Rayleigh channels. Moreover, the proposed approach can be adaptive to different channel statistics by training with corresponding channel realizations.

Fundamental Scaling Laws of Covert Communication in the Presence of Block Fading

Covert communication is the undetected transmission of sensitive information over a communication channel. In wireless communication systems, channel impairments such as signal fading present challenges in the effective implementation and analysis of covert communication systems. This paper generalizes early work in the covert communication field by considering asymptotic results for the number of bits that can be covertly transmitted in $n$ channel uses on a block fading channel. Critical to the investigation is characterizing the performance of optimal detectors at the adversary. Matching achievable and converse results are presented.

Sequence Reconstruction over the Deletion Channel

In this paper, we consider the Levenshtein's sequence reconstruction problem in the case where the transmitted codeword is chosen from $\{0,1\}^n$ and the channel can delete up to $t$ symbols from the transmitted codeword. We determine the minimum number of channel outputs (assuming that they are distinct) required to reconstruct a list of size $\ell-1$ of candidate sequences, one of which corresponds to the original transmitted sequence. More specifically, we determine the maximum possible size of the intersection of $\ell \geq 3$ deletion balls of radius $t$ centered at $x_1, x_2, \dots, x_{\ell}$, where $x_i \in \{0,1\}^n$ for all $i \in \{1,2,\dots,\ell\}$ and $x_i \neq x_j$ for $i \neq j$, with $ n \geq t+\ell-1$ and $t \geq 1$.

A generalization of the map $χ$

The mapping $ χ_n:\mathbb{F}_2^n \to \mathbb{F}_2^n$ defined by $y=χ_n(x)$ with $y_i = x_i + x_{i+1}x_{i+2} + x_{i+2}$, where the indices are computed modulo $n$, has been widely studied for its application in lightweight cryptography. In this paper, we generalize this mapping and completely characterize all these shift-invariant permutations of the form $y_i=x_{i+u}+x_{i+v}(x_{i+w}+a_i)$, where $0\le u, v, w<n$ and $a_i\in \mathbb{F}_2$, $1\le i\le n$.
