To obtain a full picture of potential applications for propagation-delay based X channels, it is important to obtain all feasible schemes of cyclic interference alignment including the encoder, channel instance, and decoder. However, when the dimension goes larger, theoretical analysis about this issue will become tedious and even impossible. In this letter, we propose a computer-aided solution by searching the channel space and the scheduling space, which can find all feasible schemes in details. Examples are given for some typical X channels. Computational complexity is further analyzed.

Underwater acoustic channels (UWA) are usually sparse, which can be exploited for adaptive equalization to improve the system performance. For the shallow UWA channels, based on the proportional minimum symbol error rate (PMSER) criterion, the adaptive equalization framework requires the sparsity selection. Since the sparsity of the 𝐿 0 norm is stronger than that of the 𝐿 1 , we choose it to achieve better convergence. However, because the 𝐿 0 norm leads to NP-hard problems, it is difficult to find an efficient solution. In order to solve this problem, we choose the Gaussian function to approximate the 𝐿 0 norm. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme obtains better performance than the 𝐿 1 based counterpart.

This letter solves the energy efficiency optimization problem for the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) systems with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), multiple input single output (MISO) and power-splitting structures, where each user may have different individual quality of service (QoS) requirements about information and energy. Nonlinear energy harvesting model is used. Alternate optimization approach is adopted to find the solution, which shows a fast convergence behavior. Simulation results show the proposed scheme has higher energy efficiency than existing dual-layer iteration and throughput maximization methods.

To improve the performance of underwater acoustic communications, this letter proposes a polar coding scheme with adaptive channel equalization, which can reduce the amount of feedback information. Furthermore, a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) mechanism is provided to mitigate the impact of estimation errors. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the turbo equalization in bit error rate. Computational complexity analysis is also provided for comparison.
