Optimal Quasi-Orthogonal FH Sequences With Adaptive Array Receiver for Massive Connectivity in Asynchronous Multi-Cluster Networks
IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications(2022)
Abstract
This paper is concerned with the enabling of massive connectivity in a multi-cluster network. In order to tackle significant amount of interference imposed by inter- and intra-cluster users, we consider a frequency-hopping (FH) system where an improved quasi-orthogonal hopping pattern, called optimal strong no-hit-zone FH sequence (SNHZ-FHS) set, is adopted in each cluster. We propose a flexible construction of SNHZ-FHS sets and derive their Hamming correlation values at different access delays. Since the maximum number of supportable users under traditional FH networks is strictly limited by the number of frequency slots, we investigate the design of a novel class of adaptive array beam-forming (BF) receiver in which SNHZ-FHS patterns (i.e., SNHZ-FH/BF) are reused over asynchronous multi-cluster uplink channels. Extensive numerical comparisons show that our proposed SNHZ-FH/BF system provides an effective means for attaining higher user capacity as well as remarkable capability of interference suppression.
