Millimeter waves will play an important role in communication systems in the near future. On the one hand, the bandwidths available at millimeter-wave frequencies allow for elevated data rates, but on the other hand, the wide bandwidth accentuates the effects of wireless front-end impairments on transmitted waveforms and makes their compensation more difficult. Research into front-end impairment compensation in millimeter-wave frequency bands is currently being carried out, mainly using expensive laboratory setups consisting of universal signal generators, spectral analyzers and high-speed oscilloscopes. This paper presents a detailed description of an in-house built MATLAB-controlled 60 GHz measurement test-bed developed using relatively inexpensive hardware components that are available on the market and equipped with digital compensation for the most critical front-end impairments, including the digital predistortion of the power amplifier. It also demonstrates the potential of digital predistortion linearization on two distinct 60 GHz power amplifiers: one integrated in a direct-conversion transceiver and an external one with 24 dBm output power.

Interference between users in adjacent channels negatively affects throughput of mobile networks. In this paper we aim at cancellation of interference caused by a nonlinear power amplifier in a generalized orthogonal frequency division system. We propose an interference cancellation method to subtract these out-of-band emissions from the received signal. In contrast to state-of-the-art methods, our proposed method employs over-the-air estimation of power amplifier model parameters together with a particular frequency domain filtering method that allows to generate the required training data. The proposed interference cancellation method is also verified by an experiment on a software defined radio test bench.

This paper presents an outdoor long-range (from 315 m up to 5.3 km) fixed channel campaign for both ultra high frequency and super high frequency bands with co-polarized horizontal and vertical antenna configurations. It investigates the channel characteristics of device to device communication scenarios underlaying the 5th generation networks by providing detailed research. Both line of sight and non-line of sight measurements in 1.3 GHz and 5.8 GHz frequency bands with bandwidth up to 600 MHz were conducted. The path loss, root mean square delay spread, coherence bandwidth, and channel frequency response variation are characterized. We observed that the variation is negligible in microcell line of sight environment for both above mentioned frequencies, whereas it significantly increases with frequency in different macrocell non-line of sight environments. The distance dependency of path loss was also derived. It was observed that the root mean square delay spread decreases with frequency for both line of sight microcell and non-line of sight macrocell measurements. A dependency between the root mean square delay spread and transmitter-receiver distance in non-line of sight environments was also captured. The relation between the coherence bandwidth and the root mean square delay spread was depicted. It demonstrates an exponential function in all considered channel combinations.

This study describes a time domain channel sounder based on binary sequences. The channel sounder system consists of several off-the-shelf laboratory instruments and is controlled by a PC. The frequency band of interest is the unlicensed millimetre wave band, 57-64 GHz. A crucial feature of the proposed system is its fast measurement speed enabling measurements of realistic vehicular scenarios. The main part of the study is dedicated to the description and analysis of the system behaviour when nonlinear components, such as mixers, low noise amplifiers or power amplifiers are used. The contributions of this study are the description of how to mitigate these effects utilising several different excitation signals and the evaluation and comparison of the channel sounder performance in terms of the spurious-free dynamic range parameter.

... There is comparatively little research on real-time FPGA hardware implementations of OTFS waveforms. [15], [16] have performed the Software-defined radio (SDR) implementation of an OTFS modem. [15] studied the performance of OTFS and OFDM modulation systems in real indoor wireless channel scenarios. ...

... In a flexible duplex, eliminating UL and DL interference within a carrier is a crucial technical challenge because the non-ideal PA causes severe out-of-band leakage. The primary solutions to these issues include enhanced filters [124] and adjacent channel interference cancelation [125,126]. The former provides better out-of-band isolation, whereas the latter reconstructs or extracts the out-of-band emissions and then subtracts them from the received signals. ...

... Thus, as summarized in Table 1, the presented test-bed achieves a much higher transmission power, with a bandwidth and linearity performance comparable to or exceeding the state-of-the art works in [38] or [16]. In addition to our recently published conference contribution [39] or our recent paper showing early predistortion results [40], this manuscript presents a much more detailed description of the hardware as well as the compensation algorithms and also provides in-depth results of the digital predistortion application for three examples of typical communication waveforms-MQAM, OFDM and FBMC-and two cases of power amplifiers. ...

... In recent years, a rapid evolution in wireless applications increase the development a new prototype compact planar reader antenna design with optimization dimensions to support a wireless radio technology such as radio frequency identification data (RFID) reader applications [1]- [3]. This is because the frequency bands super high frequency (SHF) and ultra-high frequency (UHF) can supply broad readable ranges and important data transfer rate [4]- [6]. Despite of the reality that this application very important in the world and diverse community have a different administrative standard for RFID frameworks. ...

... On the other hand, the direct conversion architecture [23] suffers from the modulator/demodulator phase and gain imbalances. The spectral images arising due to these impairments result in a significant reduction of the achievable rate, as has been shown in [24] and as we further developed experimentally for the case of the 60 GHz transceiver [25]. ...

... The collaboration included exchange of ideas for channel sounder construction, joint planning of measurement campaigns (to have some comparable measurements in different cities, and otherwise avoid excessive overlap between the measured scenarios), as well as joint evaluation and interpretation of the measurements. Results from these campaigns were presented in a series of research papers [2]- [14]. The aim of the current paper is to systematically present and compare the channel sounders, measurement scenarios, and results of those campaigns. ...

... This inevitably adds residual transceiver hardware impairments (RTHIs) from the phase noise [19], [20], amplifier non-linearity [21], and in-phase/quadrature-phase imbalance [22], [23] to the received signal. The RF front-end imperfections have a more negative impact on the mmWave spectrum range than in the conventional frequency range [24] due to an inverse relationship between the transmission rate and RTHI level [25]. ...

... Therefore, they fail to warrant longer connectivity time. To warrant better useful policies within a short training time, studies in [15,17,18,20,21,22] incorporate RL with JMLS and GT techniques. In [21] the particle-filter-based RL is incorporated to predict a finite number of disturbances and states within a randomly chosen sample of trajectories. ...

... Under this assumption, β and ψ in (12) remain constant when consistently using the same receiver SDR, and hence only the relative impairments from the transmitter (with respect to the receiver) are considered. As IQ imbalance is found to be sensitive against chip heating [38], the ambient temperature of the test environment is monitored to avoid the potential noise introduced due to varying temperatures. ...
