Abstract

This chapter presents a background on low-overhead communications in IoT networks and structured signal processing. It starts with introducing three key techniques for low-overhead communications: grant-free random access, pilot-free communications, and identification-free communications. Then different models for structured signal processing to support low-overhead communications are presented, which form the main theme of this monograph. A classical exemplary of structure signal processing, i.e., compressed sensing, is provided to illustrate the main principles of algorithm design and theoretical analysis. Finally, the outline of the monograph is presented.
