As the use of automotive radar increases, performance limitations associated with radar-to-radar interference will become more significant. In this paper we employ tools from stochastic geometry to characterize the statistics of radar interference. Specifically, using two different models for vehicle spacial distributions, namely, a Poisson point process and a Bernoulli lattice process, we calculate for each case the interference statistics and obtain analytical expressions for the probability of successful range estimation. Our study shows that the regularity of the geometrical model appears to have limited effect on the interference statistics, and so it is possible to obtain tractable tight bounds for worst case performance. A technique is proposed for designing the duty cycle for random spectrum access which optimizes the total performance. This analytical framework is verified using Monte-Carlo simulations.
The bandwidth requirement of the long range category is planned to be 1 GHz, with maximum allowed Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) of 55 dBm. The medium short range category has less power allowance, and a wider spectrum bandwidth to support higher range resolution for close targets, based on the standard resolution and bandwidth relation @cite_0 , @math , where @math is the range resolution, @math is the speed of light and @math is the used bandwidth.

Delivering Gbps high user rate over long distances ( 1 km) is challenging, and the abundant spectrum available in millimeter wave band cannot solve the challenge by its own due to the severe path loss and other limitations. Since it is economically challenging to deploy wired backhaul every few hundred meters, relays (e.g., wireless access points) have been proposed to extend the coverage of a base station, which has wired connection to the core network. These relays, deployed every few hundred meters, serve the users in their vicinity and are backhauled to the base station through wireless connections. In this paper, the wireless-relayed backhaul design has been formulated as a topology-bandwidth-power joint optimization problem, and the influence of path loss, angular spread, array size, and RF power limitation on the user rate has been evaluated. It has been shown that for a linear network deployed along the street at 28 GHz, when high joint directional gain (50 dBi) is available, 1 Gb s user rate within cell range of 1 km can be delivered using 1.5 GHz of bandwidth (using single polarization antennas). The user rates drop precipitously when joint directional gain is reduced, or when the path loss is much more severe. When the number of RF chains is limited, the benefit of larger arrays will eventually be surpassed by the increased channel estimation penalty as the effective beamforming gain saturates owing to the channel angular spread. In this paper, we consider a wideband cognitive radio network (CRN) which can simultaneously sense multiple narrowband channels and thus aggregate the perceived available channels for transmission. We study the problem of designing the optimal spectrum sensing time and power allocation schemes so as to maximize the average achievable throughput of the CRN subject to the constraints of probability of detection and the total transmit power. The optimal sensing time and power allocation strategies are developed under two different total power constraints, namely, instantaneous power constraint and average power constraint. Finally, numerical results show that, under both cases, for a CRN with three 6 MHz channels, if the frame duration is 100 ms and the target probability of detection is 90 for the worst case signal-to-noise ratio of primary users being -12 dB, -15 dB and -20 dB, respectively, the optimal sensing time is around 6 ms and it is almost insensitive to the total transmit power. Multi-User MIMO promises to increase the spectral efficiency of next generation wireless systems and is currently being incorporated in future industry standards. Although a significant amount of research has focused on theoretical capacity analysis, little is known about the performance of such systems in practice. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of the first multi-user beamforming system and experimental framework for wireless LANs. Using extensive measurements in an indoor environment, we evaluate the impact of receiver separation distance, outdated channel information due to mobility and environmental variation, and the potential for increasing spatial reuse. For the measured indoor environment, our results reveal that two receivers achieve close to maximum performance with a minimum separation distance of a quarter of a wavelength. We also show that the required channel information update rate is dependent on environmental variation and user mobility as well as a per-link SNR requirement. Assuming that a link can tolerate an SNR decrease of 3 dB, the required channel update rate is equal to 100 and 10 ms for non-mobile receivers and mobile receivers with a pedestrian speed of 3 mph respectively. Our results also show that spatial reuse can be increased by efficiently eliminating interference at any desired location; however, this may come at the expense of a significant drop in the quality of the served users. In addition to long battery life and low cost, coverage is one of the most critical performance metrics for the low power wide area networks (LPWAN). In this work we study the coverage of the recently developed LoRa LPWAN technology via real-life measurements. The experiments were conducted in the city of Oulu, Finland, using the commercially available equipment. The measurements were executed for cases when a node located on ground (attached on the roof rack of a car) or on water (attached to the radio mast of a boat) reporting their data to a base station. For a node operating in the 868 MHz ISM band using 14 dBm transmit power and the maximum spreading factor, we have observed the maximum communication range of over 15 km on ground and close to 30 km on water. Besides the actual measurements, in the paper we also present a channel attenuation model derived from the measurement data. The model can be used to estimate the path loss in 868 MHz ISM band in an area similar to Oulu, Finland.
