Cognitive LTE Small Cell Networks
Mérouane Debbah
The LTE Small Cells Flexible Framework
LTE: (Long Term Evolution) The new cellular communications standard aiming at very high data rates.
Idea: A dense network of low-power base stations.
Motivation: Higher spectral efficiency is achievable “Green” technology:
Reduced energy consumption at the base stations Reduced electromagnetic pollution (using beamforming to intended users)
Bell Labs lightradio antenna module – the next generation small cell (picture from www.washingtonpost.com)
Vision•1Gbps/Km2 for 10 MHz•Environment constraints = <1W EIRP•Constraint: ~10 W power consumption

LightRadio Concept• 2-inch cube that aims to replace unsightly cell towers• LightRadio reduces energy consumption of mobile
networks by up to 50% over current radio access network equipment
• Networks will be redesigned as a system of federated broadband hotspots that can be set up anywhere and can be powered by electricity, wind or sun.
• It is the end of the classical base station if we can provide a new radio radio interface for non-interfering networks.

Toy scenario
A bit of history on the LTE interface
Shannon’s point of view on OFDM
C. E. Shannon, ”Communication in the presence of Noise”, Proceeding of the IRE, vol. 37,no.1, pp. 10-21, Jan, 1949.
2
Fourier
”We can divide the band into a large number of small bands, with N(f) approximatelyconstant in each”
In Shannon’s terms, N(f) is the power spectrum.
3
• OFDM is the best you can do for a point to point scenario….but not in a multi-user setting….
First OFDM scheme
M. L. Doeltz, E. T. Heald and D. L. Martin, ”Binary data transmission techniques for linearsystems,” Proc. IRE, vol. 45, pp. 656-661, May 1957.
• First system known as Kineplex (50 years ago!) for military purposes in the band [1.8-30Mhz].
Unfortunately, not much is known about this system...classified!

The Analog age of OFDM
B. R. Saltzberg, ”Performance of an efficient Parallel Data Transmission System,” IEEETrans. Commun, Vol. Com-15, p. 805-811, Dec. 1967S. B. Weinstein and P. M. Ebert, ”Data Transmission by frequency Division Multiplexing”,IEEE Trans. Commun, vol. COM-19, pp. 628-634, Oct, 1971.
Joseph Fourier, 1768-1830
The basic idea used the Fourier transform but the success was limited due to the highcost of orthogonal analog filters.
5
The digital age of OFDM
A. Peled and A. Ruiz, ”Frequency domain data transmission using reduced computationalcomplexity algorithms”, in Proc. IEEE Int. Conf. Acoustics, Speech and SignalProcessing, Apr. 1980, pp. 964-967B. Hirosaki, ”An Orthogonally multiplexed QAM system using the discrete FourierTransform,” IEEE Trans. Commun,. vol. Com-29, pp. 982-989, Jul. 1981
The modulator was based on the FFT and had well celebrated features thanks to Cooley(IBM) and Tukey (Princeton) in 1965.
But how does one cope with frequency selective channels?
6
OFDM Afterwards
WO9004893, oct, 1989, First worldwide patent introducing the guard interval in OFDM
Tristan de Couasnon, 1946- ,Supelec then TH-CSF
The idea is based on the use of a guard interval.
The unexploited guard interval trades complexity for performance but this is exactly thedegree of freedom we need
We have to exploit it!

Our proposal: VFDM
Vandermonde-subspace Frequency Division Multiplexing
A linear Vandermonde-based orthogonal precoder thatgenerates zero interference on the primary network by ex-ploiting the frequency selective nature of the channel.

Conclusions and Further Work
I VFDM is viable for interference cancellation for cognitive radionetworks
I Non-negligible rates in the single cell scenario if perfect CSI isavailable
I Zero interference achieved at the expense of a lower rate for thesecondary system, though competitive with the primary system inhigh-user scenario
I Thanks to the dense network layout and cognitive capabilities thecapacity per area is increased. The achievable sum-rate increases somore users can be served
