In this paper, we analyze and compare several strategies for iteratively decoding trellis-encoded signals over channels with memory. Soft-in/soft-out extensions of reduced-complexity trellis search algorithms such as delayed decision-feedback sequence estimating (DDFSE) or parallel decision-feedback decoding (PDFD) algorithms are used instead of conventional BCJR and min-log-BCJR algorithms. It has been shown that for long channel impulse responses and/or high modulation orders where the BCJR algorithm becomes prohibitively complex, the proposed algorithms offer very good performance with low complexity. The problem of channel estimation in practical implementation of turbo detection schemes is studied in the second part. Two methods of channel reestimation are proposed: one based on the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm and the second on a simple Bootstrap technique. Both algorithms are shown to dramatically improve the performance of the classical pseudo-inverse channel estimation performed initially on a training sequence.

Devassy, Rahul; Durisi, Giuseppe; Ferrante, Guido Carlo; Simeone, Osvaldo; Uysal, Elif (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-04-01)
This paper investigates the probability that the delay and the peak-age of information exceed a desired threshold in a point-to-point communication system with short information packets. The packets are generated according to a stationary memoryless Bernoulli process, placed in a single-server queue and then transmitted over a wireless channel.

Anti-periodic solutions for state-dependent impulsive recurrent neural networks with time-varying and continuously distributed delays
Sayli, Mustafa; YILMAZ, ENES (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-11-01)
In this paper, we address a new model of neural networks related to the impulsive phenomena which is called state-dependent impulsive recurrent neural networks with time-varying and continuously distributed delays. We investigate sufficient conditions on the existence and uniqueness of exponentially stable anti-periodic solution for these neural networks by employing method of coincide degree theory and an appropriate Lyapunov function. Moreover, we present an illustrative example to show the effectiveness ...
Almost Periodic Solutions of Recurrent Neural Networks with State-Dependent and Structured Impulses
Akhmet, Marat; Erim, Gülbahar (2023-01-01)
The subject of the present paper is recurrent neural networks with variable impulsive moments. The impact activation functions are specified such that the structure for the jump equations are in full accordance with that one for the differential equation. The system studied in this paper covers the works done before, not only because the impacts have recurrent form, but also impulses are not state-dependent. The conditions for existence and uniqueness of asymptotically stable discontinuous almost periodic s...
Nested Iterative Solutions of Electromagnetic Problems Using Approximate Forms of the Multilevel Fast Multipole Algorithm
Onol, Can; Ucuncu, Arif; Karaosmanoglu, Bariscan; Ergül, Özgür Salih (2017-03-24)
Nested iterative solutions using full and approximate forms of the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) are presented for efficient analysis of electromagnetic problems. The developed mechanism is based on preconditioning an iterative solution via another iterative solution, and this way, nesting multiple solutions as layers. The accuracy is systematically reduced from top to bottom by using the on-the-fly characteristics of MLFMA, as well as the iterative residual errors. As a demonstration, a three...
Efficient Computation of Green's Functions for Multilayer Media in the Context of 5G Applications
Mittra, Raj; Özgün, Özlem; Li, Chao; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2021-03-22)
This paper presents a novel method for effective computation of Sommerfeld integrals which arise in problems involving antennas or scatterers embedded in planar multilayered media. Sommerfeld integrals that need to be computed in the evaluation of spatial-domain Green's functions are often highly oscillatory and slowly decaying. For this reason, standard numerical integration methods are not efficient for such integrals, especially at millimeter waves. The main motivation of the proposed method is to comput...
