A multi-relay cooperative diversity protocol based on the concept of Generalized Spatial Modulation (GSM) scheme is proposed in this paper, assuming that decode-and-forward relaying protocol is adopted at relays. This scheme is referred to as Distributed Generalized Spatial Modulation (DGSM) with activating more than one relay. The system performance of the proposed diversity protocol in terms of the Symbol Error Rate (SER) is evaluated and compared to the performance of GSM and Distributed Spatial Modulation (DSM) schemes. Simulation results show that DGSM systems with activating more than one relay perform almost the same as DSM systems for the same spectral efficiency. It is also demonstrated that a performance enhancement of about 3 dB is achieved over GSM schemes for the same modulation order, which increases the energy efficiency and the reachability using the proposed model. Therefore, the proposed scheme can be effectively used in various 5G wireless networks.

Denoising of chirp based signals is a challenging problem in signal processing and communications. In this paper, we propose a suitable denoising algorithm based on the discrete linear chirp transform (DLCT), which provides local signal decomposition in terms of linear chirps. Analytical expression for the optimal filter response is derived. The method relies on the ability of the DLCT for providing a sparse representation to a wide class of broadband signals like chirp signals. Simulation results show the efficiency of the proposed method, especially for mono-component chirp signals.

Abstract The increased amount of electromagnetic radiation in the environment has increased the common concern over the possible health risks of wireless devices (e.g. mobile phone ). However, to minimize the amount of energy absorbed by the user is an advantageous from the technical point of view, as well. The reduction of power absorbed by the user not only reduces any possible health hazards but also makes the antenna more efficient. In this master’s thesis, interaction between modern mobile phone antennas and user is studied by using numerical full-wave EM methods. The thesis aims at improving, understanding how mobile terminal antennas behave in the vicinity of the user and how different numerical EM methods can be used to solve the interaction problem. The results give valuable information for antenna designers in order to design antennas which have low interaction with the user as possible. Furthermore this master’s thesis introduces a simple optimization technique to enhance the performance of planar inverted F antenna (PIFA) one of common modern mobile phone antenna in vicinity of user and reduce its effect on health.
