Current and future broadband cellular systems have to employ efficient techniques for the transmission and reception of high speed data. Equipping transmitters and receivers with multiple-antennas is a major step in this direction as it has the potential of providing a substantial spatial multiplexing gain. Unfortunately, interference from adjacent cells is an impediment to the spatial multiplexing gain promised by MIMO techniques. There exist solutions to mitigate the inter-cell interference in MIMO cellular systems, the most promising being coordinated multi-point (CoMP) transmission/reception (also known as network MIMO) and large-scale MIMO (also known as massive MIMO). The focus of this thesis is on multi-user MIMO techniques including precoding and user scheduling for large-scale and cooperative MIMO wireless systems. In this study, we design and analyze a near capacity-achieving non-linear precoding technique relying on vector perturbation (VP) along with a fair user scheduling algorithm for joint transmission network MIMO (usually operating in the frequency division duplex (FDD) mode). We consider practical conditions such as imperfect channel state information (CSI) due to the backhaul delay and per-base station (per-BS) power constraints. In addition, we propose an optimal VP technique minimizing the mean square error (MSE) of the received signal subject to per-BS power constraints. Although the array virtualization of network MIMO reduces the inter-cell interference to some extent (depending on the cluster size of coordinated BSs), the increase in transmit antenna array size is limited by the fading block length (coherence time of the radio channel). In the time division duplex (TDD) mode, the story is different thanks to the channel reciprocity. Massive MIMO or large-scale MIMO is a transmission/reception scheme for multi-cell MIMO, which works in the TDD mode and involves BSs, each with a large number of antennas, much larger than the number of users per cell. In this study, we design and analyze a non-linear precoding technique employing time domain VP (TDVP) for a large-scale (massive) MIMO system. To analyze the system we employ random matrix methods to avoid time-consuming Monte-Carlo simulations and get better insight into the problem. In addition, we propose a practical approach to mitigating pilot contamination for massive MIMO through a joint clustering and pilot reuse scheme. We propose pilot contamination precoding (PCP) as outer linear precoding prior to conventional precoding through a cooperative transmission scheme with three BSs involved in the coordination cluster.

In wireless distributed networks, where multiple antennas can not be integrated in one node, cooperative Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) techniques help to exploit the space time diversity gain in order to increase performances or to reduce the transmission energy consumption. In this thesis, strategies using cooperative MIMO techniques are proposed for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) where the energy consumption is the most important design criterion. The performance and the energy consumption advantages of cooperative MIMO technique are investigated, in comparison with the SISO, multi-hop SISO and cooperative Relay techniques, and an optimal selection of transmit-receive antennas number in terms of energy consumption is also proposed as a function of transmission distances. Since the wireless nodes are physically separated in cooperative MIMO systems, the imperfect time synchronization between cooperative nodes clocks leads to an unsynchronized MIMO transmission. The performance degradation of this cooperative transmission synchronization error and the cooperative reception additional noise is evaluated by simulations. Two new cooperative reception techniques based on the relay principle and a new efficient space-time combination technique are proposed in order to increase the energy efficiency of cooperative MIMO systems. Finally, performance and energy consumption comparisons between cooperative MIMO and Relay techniques are performed and an association strategy is also proposed to exploit simultaneously the advantages of the two cooperative techniques.

The next-generation wireless technologies are currently being researched to address the ever-increasing demands for higher data rates, massive connectivity, improved reliability, and extended coverage. Recently, massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) has gained significant attention as a new physical-layer transmission technology that can achieve unprecedented spectral and energy efficiency gains via aggressive spatial multiplexing. Thus, massive MIMO has been one of the key enabling technologies for the fifth-generation and subsequent wireless standards. This dissertation thus focuses on developing a system, channel, and signal models by considering the practical wireless transmission impairments for massive MIMO systems, and ascertaining the viability of massive MIMO in fulfilling massive access, improved spectrum, enhanced security, and energy efficiency requirements. Specifically, new system and channel models, pilot sequence designs and channel estimation techniques, secure transmit/receive beamforming techniques, transmit power allocation schemes with enhanced security provisions, energy efficiency, and user fairness, and comprehensive performance analysis frameworks are developed for massive MIMO-aided non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), cognitive spectrum-sharing, and wireless relaying architectures. Our first work focuses on developing physical-layer transmission schemes for NOMA-aided massive MIMO systems. A spatial signature-based user-clustering and pilot allocation scheme is first formulated, and thereby, a hybrid orthogonal multiple access (OMA)/NOMA transmission scheme is proposed to boost the number of simultaneous connections. In our second work, the viability of invoking downlink pilots to boost the achievable rate of NOMA-aided massive MIMO is investigated. The third research contribution investigates the performance of underlay spectrum-sharing massive MIMO systems for reverse time division duplexing based transmission strategies, in which primary and secondary systems concurrently operate in opposite directions. Thereby, we show that the secondary system can be operated with its maximum average transmit power independent of the primary system in the limit of infinity many primary/secondary base-station antennas. In our fourth work, signal processing techniques, power allocation, and relay selection schemes are designed and analyzed for massive MIMO relay networks to optimize the trade-off among the achievable user rates, coverage, and wireless resource usage. Finally, the cooperative jamming and artificial noise-based secure transmission strategies are developed for massive MIMO relay networks with imperfect legitimate user channel information and with no channel knowledge of the eavesdropper. The key design criterion of the aforementioned transmission strategies is to efficiently combine the spatial multiplexing gains and favorable propagation conditions of massive MIMO with properties of NOMA, underlay spectrum-sharing, and wireless relay networks via efficient signal processing.

This thesis exploits index modulation techniques to design energy- and spectrum-efficient system models to operate in future wireless networks. In this respect, index modulation techniques are studied considering two different media: mapping the information onto the frequency indices of multicarrier systems, and onto the antenna array indices of a platform that comprises multiple antennas. The index modulation techniques in wideband communication scenarios considering orthogonal and generalized frequency division multiplexing systems are studied first. Single cell multiuser networks are considered while developing the system models that exploit the index modulation on the subcarriers of the multicarrier systems. Instead of actively modulating all the subcarriers, a subset is selected according to the index modulation bits. As a result, there are subcarriers that remain idle during the data transmission phase and the activation pattern of the subcarriers convey additional information. The transceivers for the orthogonal and generalized frequency division multiplexing systems with index modulation are both designed considering the uplink and downlink transmission phases with a linear combiner and precoder in order to reduce the system complexity. In the developed system models, channel state information is required only at the base station. The linear combiner is designed adopting minimum mean square error method to mitigate the inter-user-interference. The proposed system models offer a flexible design as the parameters are independent of each other. The parameters can be adjusted to design the system in favor of the energy efficiency, spectrum efficiency, peak-to-average power ratio, or error performance. Then, the index modulation techniques are studied for large-scale multiple-input multiple-output systems that operate in millimeter wave bands. In order to overcome the drawbacks of transmission in millimeter wave frequencies, channel properties should be taken in
