An Interesting Story Behind This Work

  • Dr. Catipovic to Dr. Zhou: I’ve collected some OFDM data in the AUTEC. Can

you decode it?

  • Dr. Zhou to Zhaohui: Can you have a try?

Zhaohui to Dr. Zhou: Sure. Zhaohui to Dr. Zhou: Most files can be decoded, but several others cannot.

  • Dr. Zhou to Zhaohui: What’s the reason?

An Interesting Story Behind This Work (Cont.)

  • Dr. Catipovic: These could be the interference from sonar users.
  • Dr. Zhou to Zhaohui: Can you do an investigation on the existing interference

cancellation methods? Zhaohui to Dr. Zhou: Sure.

◮ Limited research on interference cancellation in UWA communications ◮ External interference cancellation in radio communications ⋆ Narrowband interference with large time-duration ⋆ Impulsive interference with large bandwidth

Zhaohui to Dr. Zhou: These methods do not apply to this kind of partial-band (e.g., 2 kHz vs 5 kHz) partial-block-duration (e.g., 45 ms vs 150 ms) interference

  • Dr. Zhou to Zhaohui: Hmm..., let’s develop our own method.

After a couple of weeks’ thinking and discussions, on a sunny morning, ⇒ A parameterized interference cancellation approach! ¨ ⌣ ¨ ⌣ ¨ ⌣

Generality of the Proposed Method

During the development of this work, we realized that... The method applies as long as the interference can be parameterized. External interference, e.g.,

◮ Unintentional interference, e.g. interference from sonar operations ◮ Interference from marine mammals ◮ Dumb malicious jamming, as you’ll see later

Internal interference, e.g.,

◮ Interblock interference ◮ Multi-access interference

⇒ How does it work?

OFDM System Model for Interference Cancellation

The input-output relationship in the frequency domain z = Hs + Λ(τI)ΓIu + w Unknowns to estimate:

◮ Channel matrix: H ◮ Information symbols in s ◮ Interference vector: u ◮ Interference relative delay: τI in Λ(τI)

What we have:

◮ Frequency measurements: z ◮ Pilot symbols in s

Receiver structure

◮ Joint estimation of all the unknowns using the Bayesian method:

high computational complexity

◮ Iterative receiver structure: to estimate the unknowns iteratively
