On the accuracy of localization systems using wideband antenna arrays
—Accurate positional information is essential for many applications in wireless networks. Time-of-arrival (TOA) and angle-of-arrival (AOA) are the two most commonly used signal m...

Bi-Directional Multi-Antenna Relay Communications with Wireless Network Coding
Abstract: In this paper, we consider a two-way or bidirectional communications system with a relay equipped with multiple antennas. We show that when the downlink channel state inf...
