Linear precoder design through cut-off rate maximization in MIMO-OFDM coded systems with imperfect CSIT
This paper proposes a linear transmitter design that aims at minimizing the packet error rate (PER) using partial channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT). The design is...

Analog beamforming in MIMO communications with phase shift networks and online channel estimation
In multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, the use of many radio frequency (RF) and analog-to-digital converter (ADC) chains at the receiver is costly. Analog beamformers op...

Welch method revisited: nonparametric power spectrum estimation via circular overlap
The objective of this paper is twofold. The first part provides further insight in the statistical properties of the Welch power spectrum estimator. A major drawback of the Welch m...

Testing stationarity with surrogates: a time-frequency approach
An operational framework is developed for testing stationarity relatively to an observation scale, in both stochastic and deterministic contexts. The proposed method is based on a ...

Sparse channel estimation for multicarrier underwater acoustic communication: from subspace methods to compressed sensing
Abstract--In this paper, we investigate various channel estimators that exploit channel sparsity in the time and/or Doppler domain for a multicarrier underwater acoustic system. We...

Low complexity equalization for doubly selective channels modeled by a basis expansion
We propose a novel equalization method for doubly selective wireless channels, whose taps are represented by an arbitrary Basis Expansion Model (BEM). We view such a channel in the...
