We apply the idea of space-time coding devised for multi le antenna systems to the communication over a wireless relay network. We use a two stage protocol, where in one stage the transmitter sends information and in the other, the relay nodes encode their received signals into a "distributed" linear dispersion code, and then transmit the coded signals to the receiver. We show that for high SNR the pairwise error probability (PEP) behaves as (log P/P)(min{T,R}), with T the coherence interval, R the number of relay nodes and P the total transmit power. Thus, apart from the log P factor and assuming T >= R, the system has the same diversity as a multi-antenna system with R transmit antennas, which is the same as assuming that the R relay nodes can fully It cooperate and have full knowledge of the transmitted signal. We further show that for a fixed total transmit power across the entire network, the optimal power allocation is for the transmitter to expend half the power and for the relays to collectively expend the other half. We also show that at low and high SNR, the coding gain is the same as that of a multi-antenna system with R antennas. At intermediate SNR, it can be quite different, which has implications for the design of distributed space-time codes.

The standard Capon beamformer (SCB) has better resolution and much better interference rejection capability than the data-independent beamformer, provided that the array steering vector corresponding to the signal-of-interest (SOI) is accurately known. However, whenever the knowledge of the SOI steering vector is imprecise (as is often the case in practice), the performance of the Capon beamformer may become worse than that of the data-independent beamformer. Most of the early suggested robust adaptive methods are rather ad hoe in that the choice of their parameters are not directly related to the uncertainty of the steering vector. In this paper we provide a review of the recently proposed robust Capon beamformer (RCB) and doubly constrained robust Capon beamformer (DCRCB), which directly address the uncertainty of the steering vector and naturally extend the covariance fitting formulation of SCB to the case of uncertain steering vectors by enforcing a double constraint on the steering vector, viz. a constant norm constraint and an uncertainty set constraint. We also present several extensions and applications of RCB including constant-powerwidth RCB (CPRCB) and constant-beamwidth RCB (CBRCB) for acoustic imaging, rank-deficient robust Capon filter-bank (RCF) approach for spectral estimation, and rank-deficient RCB for landmine detection using forward-looking ground penetrating radar (FLGPR) imaging systems. The excellent performances of RCB, DCRCB, and the various extensions of RCB are demonstrated by simulated and experimental examples.

Tracking signals in dynamic environments presents difficulties in both analysis and implementation. In this work, we expand on a class of subspace tracking algorithms which utilize the Grassmann manifold - the set of linear subspaces of a high-dimensional vector space. We design regularized least squares algorithms based on common manifold operations and intuitive dynamical models. We demonstrate the efficacy of the approach for a narrowband beamforming scenario, where the dynamics of multiple signals of interest are captured by motion on the Grassmannian.

Several methods have been developed which allow the estimation of the location of an existing source with considerable accuracy in the absence of multipaths. However, if, in addition to the Line-of-Sight (LOS) path, non-LOS (NLOS) paths are also present, then all existing localisation algorithms dramatically fail to estimate the location of the source. In this paper, a passive arrayprocessing algorithm is proposed, which, if used prior to a localisation approach, suppresses all the multipath contributions in the received signal except for that of the LOS path. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated through computer simulation studies.

The classic DSP sampling property: "(Uniform) sampling of a bandlimited signal leads to (perfect) replication in the spectral domain." does not hold in the vertex Graph signalprocessing (GSP) model. Sampling uniformly in GSP does not lead to perfect replicas, but rather distorted replicas [1]. In [2], we introduced a Step 1-Step 2 Companion Model Method, S2CM2, as a way to introduce new GSP concepts. The GSP companion model is closest to the DSP time model (with different boundary conditions), making it easier to extend DSP concepts. In this paper, we consider GSP sampling in the companion model. We show that GSP sampling theory in the companion model is similar to DSP sampling theory by illustrating the four sampling steps: Subsampling, Decimation, Upsampling, Interpolation, in the companion model.

In this paper, we develop a scheme to partition a one- or multi-dimensional consecutive integer number set into multiple identical, possibly rotated, subsets. The proposed technique first exploits one-dimensional nested subsets, and the results are extended to achieve two- and multi-subset partitioning as well as in two- and multi-dimensional spaces. The number of consecutive lags in each case is examined. The results are useful to various sensing and communication applications, and sparse step-frequency waveform design for range estimation in automotive radar is demonstrated as an example.

In this paper, we explore the use of large-scale sparse arrays for pilot placement in pilot-based sensing within integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems. Unlike conventional regular pilot placement method, sparse placement offers a significant reduction in overhead while maintaining high sensing performance. We present a novel large-scale sparse array construction method by introducing a multi-tier array structure. Using the proposed method, the design of large-scale sparse arrays can be simplified into several smaller-sized array design problems, significantly reducing computational complexity and storage requirements. Numerical examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for low-overhead sensing pilot placement design, which is applicable in future 6G applications.

The problem of optimal node density for ad hoc sensor networks deployed for making inferences about two dimensional correlated random fields is considered. Using a symmetric first order conditional autoregressive Gauss-Markov random field model, large deviations results are used to characterize the asymptotic per-node information gained from the array. This result then allows an analysis of the node density that maximizes the information under an energy constraints yielding insights into the trade-offs among the information, density and energy.

In this paper, we propose high-resolution target direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation using frequency-switching sparse arrays which implement multi-frequency sparse arrays in a low-complexity manner. Unlike multi-frequency sparse arrays which require processing of wideband signals comprising multiple frequency components, the proposed frequency-switching sparse arrays only need to process a single-frequency component at any time instant, thereby eliminating such hurdles and significantly reducing the system complexity. A frequency-switching sparse array achieves the same number of degrees-of-freedom as a multi-frequency counterpart with comparable DOA estimation performance. Numerical results on the DOA estimation performance and Cramer-Rao bounds are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed frequency-switching sparse arrays.
