CP-DSSS: An OFDM Compatible Variable Rate Modulation for 5G and Beyond

Abstract

Cyclic prefix direct sequence spread spectrum (CPDSSS) is a recently proposed waveform that has been designed for coexistence with OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) in the same or a pair of parallel networks. The first contribution of this paper is to present equations that reveal similarities and differences of CP-DSSS and OFDM. Furthermore, we show that the channel model of CP-DSSS reduces to that of a cyclic prefixed block-wise single carrier modulation (CP-SCM). However, unlike CP-SCM whose symbol rate is always equal to the transmission bandwidth, CP-DSSS can be adopted to any symbol rate equal to or smaller than the transmission bandwidth. This reduction in symbol rate allows CP-DSSS power spectral density to drop to an arbitrarily low level, hence, facilitates it coexistence as a secondary waveform in a network of primary users. The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of CP-DSSS is also explored and a method for reducing it is proposed.

Conflict Detection in Open RAN with Recurrent Neural Networks Using Geometric Manifolds

Allowing third-party applications on Radio Access Network (RAN) Intelligent Controllers (RICs) within the OpenRAN (O-RAN) framework introduces conflicting interactions that are often difficult to detect in advance. These conflicts, occurring between third-party applications in the Near RealTime RIC (Near-RT RIC), known as xApps, can lead to performance degradation and instability in O-RAN if not identified early. Existing conflict detection and mitigation solutions in the literature assume that the conflicts are known beforehand, which is not always accurate due to the complex and often hidden relationships between control parameters and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). In this paper, we propose a novel Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) to detect both known and unknown conflicts in O-RAN xApps as specified in the O-RAN standards. We model the xApps, control parameters, and KPIs with nodes and edges to create graph structures and use the hidden nonEuclidean geometric properties of the Riemannian manifold to train the RNN model. The performance of this proposed model is validated using evaluation metrics and compared with benchmarks. Results demonstrate that the proposed RNN model, leveraging Riemannian geometric properties, can achieve 100% of the F1-score provided by an optimal solution in just 20 iterations.
