In this paper, we consider filter-and-forward relay beamforming using orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) in the presence of inter-block interference (IBI). We propose a filter design method based on a constrained max-min problem, which aims to suppress IBI and also avoid deep nulls in the frequency domain. It is shown that IBI can be suppressed completely owing to the employment of beamforming with multiple relays or multiple receive antennas at each relay when perfect channel state information (CSI) is available. In addition, we modify the proposed method to cover the case where only the partial CSI for relay-receiver channels is available. Numerical simulation results show that the proposed method significantly improves the performance as the number of relays and antennas increases due to spatial diversity, and the modified method can make use of the channel correlation to improve the performance.

This paper presents a new method for blind source separation by exploiting phase and frequency redundancy of cyclostationary signals in a complementary way. It requires a weaker separation condition than those methods which only exploit the phase diversity or the frequency diversity of the source signals. The separation criterion is to diagonalize a polynomial matrix whose coefficient matrices consist of the correlation and cyclic correlation matrices, at time delay τ= 0, of multiple measurements. An algorithm is proposed to perform the blind source separation. Computer simulation results illustrate the performance of the new algorithm in comparison with the existing ones.
