Measure Concentration on the OFDM-based Random Access Channel
share
It is well known that CS can boost massive random access protocols. Usually, the protocols operate in some overloaded regime where the sparsity can be exploited. In this paper, we consider a different approach by taking an orthogonal FFT base, subdivide its image into appropriate sub-channels and let each subchannel take only a fraction of the load. To show that this approach can actually achieve the full capacity we provide i) new concentration inequalities, and ii) devise a sparsity capture effect, i.e where the sub-division can be driven such that the activity in each each sub-channel is sparse by design. We show by simulations that the system is scalable resulting in a coarsely 30-fold capacity increase.
