The signal from the source-destination(S-D) link is formulated as a highly correlated counterpart from the relay-destination(R-D) link. A special XOR vector is defined using the correlated hard decision information blocks from two decoders and the extrinsic information exchanged between the two decoders is derived by the log-likelihood ratio(LLR) associated with the XOR vector. Such the decoding scheme is different from the traditional turbo-like detection/decoding algorithm, where the extrinsic information is computed by the side information and the soft decoder outputs. Simulations show that the presented algorithm has a slightly better performance than the traditional turbo-like algorithm(Taking the(255,175) EG-LDPC code as an example, it achieves about 0.1 dB performance gains aroundBLER=10^(-4)). Furthermore, the presented algorithm requires fewer computing operations per iteration and has faster convergence rate. For example, the average iteration of the presented algorithm is 33 at SNR=1.8 dB, which is about twice faster than that of the turbo-like algorithm, when decoding the(961,721) QC-LDPC code. Therefore, the presented decoding algorithm of correlated sources provides an alternative decoding solution for the LDPC-based relay systems.展开更多

The interferers are independent non-identically distributed K-μfading.

Various numerical results are compared with Monte Carlo simulation results in order to corroborate the accuracy of the proposed expressions. Our results show that increasing the value of kappa of main links will decrease the outage probability of relay systems. Furthermore, the system performance degrades with the number of interferences.展开更多

Then using interpolation algorithm, all precoding matrices are achieved at base station (BS) and relay nodes. Simulations indicate the effectiveness of the proposed limited feedback joint precoding and beam_formlng design. The proposed method can improve bit error rate (BER) performance and obtain better sum-rate performance in contrast to existing algorithms. It displays the BER performance is close to that of the unquantified precoding feedback method.展开更多

In this article, we consider a cooperative system where two users communicate with the destination via relays, and these relays connect with the destination by cable. Through the theoretical derivation and analysis, we obtain the optimal relay allocation strat- egy based on the maximum rate under the condition of relays setting forwarding thresholds. The result shows that the system has the maximum transmission rate when the relays are allocated equivalently between users. Moreover, compared with the single-user system, the results prove that diversity gain has a decisive effect on the performance in low SNR. However, with the SNR increasing, the impact of diversity gain on system rate will be reduced. In high SNR, spatial freedom degree of the channel of multiple users is brought to enhance the performance instead of diversity gain. Numerical results demonstrate the validity of the allocation strategy and conclusion arrived in this study, but we do not find the similar arguments in the literature so far, for comparison with the conclusion of this study.展开更多

The distance between each transceiver is optimized to prevent some relays from being the bottleneck and guarantee the high end-to-end channel capacity. However, in some cases, the location of relays can’t be set at the desired location, the transmit power of each relay should be optimized. Additionally, in order to achieve the higher end-to-end channel capacity, the distance and the transmit power are optimized simultaneously. We propose the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method to optimize both the distance and the transmit power in complex propagation environments. Moreover, when the system has no control over transmission of each relay, the interference signal is presented and the performance of system is deteriorated. The general protocol of control transmission for each relay on the MAC layer is analyzed and compared to the Carrier Sense Multiple Access-Collision Avoidance protocol. According to the number of relays, the Mac layer protocol for the highest end-to-end channel capacity is changed. We also analyze the end-to-end channel capacity when the number of antennas and relays tends to infinity.展开更多

Non-linear source precoders in such a system have not been considered yet. In this paper, we study the joint design of source Tomlinson-Harashima precoders (THPs), relay linear precoder and MMSE receivers in two-way relay systems. This joint design problem is a highly nonconvex optimization problem. By dividing the original problem into three sub-problems, we propose an iterative algorithm to optimize precoders and receivers. The convergence of the algorithm is ensured since the updated solution is optimal to each sub-problem. Numerical simulation results show that the proposed iterative algorithm outperforms other algorithms in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region.展开更多

Based on the measured channel im- pulse response, the channel gain, the eigenvalue statistics and the capacity are investigated. The distribution and corresponding parameters for describing the eigenvalue dispersion, the maximum and minimum eigenvalues are given. It is found that the backhaul link is relatively stable, which shows small variance of the channel gain. In spite of the fact that there are not many scatterers in the backhaul link, the channel rank can be enhanced by using dual-polarized antennas. Thus, the backhaul link can provide enough capacity.展开更多

In this paper, a decode-and-forward scheme distributed MIMO relay system is examined. For upper bound of channel capacity, the distance between transceivers is optimized when the propagation loss is brought close to actuality. Additionally, the number of relay is optimized whether total antenna element is fixed or not. When the number of relay is assumed to be infinite, the dynamic relay selection method based on the transmission rate is proposed. We represent that with the proposed method, the transmit power and the number of relays are saving.展开更多

We show that simple linear techniques at the source and destination in conjunction with maximum ratio combining can provide an optimal transmission strategy in terms of received SNR without imposing a huge computational load over the relay node(s). Besides, the structures of precoding matrices are very similar at the source and relay nodes, which reduces the complexity as all nodes can play the role of source and relay nodes without changing their transmission structure. Numerical results show that the proposed transmission and reception techniques can improve the received SNR, and hence enhance the ergodic capacity.展开更多

Based on the assumption that the availability of perfect channel state information (CSI) is known at the resource allocation controller, we propose a new resource allocation algorithm which can guarantee proportional fairness among users. In the proposed algorithm, a two-step suboptimal method is taken into account. Firstly, we assume equal power allocation for each user to linearize the problem and propose the subcarrier assignment and relay selection scheme based on equivalent channel gain. Secondly, we derive the closed-form expressions for power allocation through relaxing the proportional fairness constraints. Numerical simulations show that the proposed algorithm performs well in terms of satisfying proportional fairness among users in strict sense and achieving improvement on system total capacity.展开更多

The precoding and decoding matrices are jointly optimized based on Minimum Mean-Square-Error (MMSE) criteria under transmit power constraints. The optimization problem is solved by using a convergent iterative algorithm which in-cludes four sub-problems. It is shown that due to the difficulty of the block diagonal nature of the relay precoding matrix, sub-problem two cannot be solved with existing methods. It is then solved by converting sub-problem two into a convex optimization problem and a simplified method is proposed to reduce the computational complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can achieve lower Bit Error Rate (BER) and larger sum rate than other schemes. Furthermore, the BER and the sum rate performance can be improved by increasing the number of antennas for the same number of relays or increasing the number of relays for the same number of antennas.展开更多

The general protocol of control transmission for each relay on the MAC layer is analyzed and compared to the Carrier Sense Multiple Access-Collision Avoidance protocol. According to the number of relays, the Mac layer protocol for the highest end-to-end channel capacity is changed. We also analyze the end-to-end channel capacity when the number of antennas and relays tends to infinity.

文摘A cross-layer design which combines adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) at the physical layer with a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) protocol at the data link layer (LL) is presented, in cooperative relay system over Nakagami-m fading channels with perfect and imperfect channel state information (CSI). In order to maximize spectral efficiency (SE) under delay and packet error rate (PER) performance constraints, a state transition model and an optimization framework with perfect CSI are presented. Then the framework is extended to cooperative relay system with imperfect CSI. The numerical results show that the scheme can achieve maximum SE while satisfying transmitting delay requirements. Compared with the imperfect CSI, the average PER with perfect CSI is much lower and the spectral efficiency is much higher.

文摘In this paper,an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)-enabled two-way relay system with Physical-layer Network Coding(PNC)protocol is considered.A rotary-wing UAV is applied as a mobile relay to assist two ground terminals for information interaction.Our goal is to maximize the sum-rate of the two-way relay system subject to mobility constraints,propulsion power consumption constraints,and transmit power constraints.The formulated problem is not easy to solve directly because it is a mixed integer non-convex optimization problem.Therefore,we decompose it into three sub-problems,and use the mutation arithmetic of the Genetic Algorithm(GA)and Successive Convex Approximation(SCA)to dispose.Besides,a high-efficiency iterative algorithm is proposed to obtain a locally optimal solution by jointly optimizing the time slot pairing,the transmit power allocation,and the UAV trajectory design.Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed design achieves significant gains over the benchmark designs.

文摘Existing minimum-mean-squared-error (MMSE) transceiver designs in amplified-and-forward (AF) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) two-way relay systems all assume a linear precoder at the sources. Non-linear source precoders in such a system have not been considered yet. In this paper, we study the joint design of source Tomlinson-Harashima precoders (THPs), relay linear precoder and MMSE receivers in two-way relay systems. This joint design problem is a highly nonconvex optimization problem. By dividing the original problem into three sub-problems, we propose an iterative algorithm to optimize precoders and receivers. The convergence of the algorithm is ensured since the updated solution is optimal to each sub-problem. Numerical simulation results show that the proposed iterative algorithm outperforms other algorithms in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region.

文摘In order to optimize power utilization of relay nodes in cooperative communication,a power allocation algorithm with objective function to maximize system capacity is proposed.Based on the convex optimization theory,an ellipsoid algorithm is used to solve this problem,which could simplify the subgradient choosing steps and improve convergence stability,so that an optimized power allocation algorithm is presented.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively distribute the power of each node with lower complexity,and ensure the transmission capability of relay nodes in cooperative communication.
文摘A measurement campaign has been conducted at 2.35 GHz with a bandwidth of 50 MHz to ob- tain the statistics and evaluate the capacity of the backhaul link. Based on the measured channel im- pulse response, the channel gain, the eigenvalue statistics and the capacity are investigated. The distribution and corresponding parameters for describing the eigenvalue dispersion, the maximum and minimum eigenvalues are given. It is found that the backhaul link is relatively stable, which shows small variance of the channel gain. In spite of the fact that there are not many scatterers in the backhaul link, the channel rank can be enhanced by using dual-polarized antennas. Thus, the backhaul link can provide enough capacity.
文摘The research on distributed MIMO relay system has been attracting much attention. In this paper, a decode-and-forward scheme distributed MIMO relay system is examined. For upper bound of channel capacity, the distance between transceivers is optimized when the propagation loss is brought close to actuality. Additionally, the number of relay is optimized whether total antenna element is fixed or not. When the number of relay is assumed to be infinite, the dynamic relay selection method based on the transmission rate is proposed. We represent that with the proposed method, the transmit power and the number of relays are saving.
文摘This paper addresses the design of practical communication strategies for multi-antenna amplify-and-forward and decode-and-forward relay systems. We show that simple linear techniques at the source and destination in conjunction with maximum ratio combining can provide an optimal transmission strategy in terms of received SNR without imposing a huge computational load over the relay node(s). Besides, the structures of precoding matrices are very similar at the source and relay nodes, which reduces the complexity as all nodes can play the role of source and relay nodes without changing their transmission structure. Numerical results show that the proposed transmission and reception techniques can improve the received SNR, and hence enhance the ergodic capacity.
文摘In this paper, we study resource allocation problem in orthogonal frequency division multiple access multiple-input multiple-output (OFDMA-MIMO) relay systems and formulate the optimal instantaneous resource allocation problem including subcarrier assignment, relay selection and power allocation to maximize system capacity. Based on the assumption that the availability of perfect channel state information (CSI) is known at the resource allocation controller, we propose a new resource allocation algorithm which can guarantee proportional fairness among users. In the proposed algorithm, a two-step suboptimal method is taken into account. Firstly, we assume equal power allocation for each user to linearize the problem and propose the subcarrier assignment and relay selection scheme based on equivalent channel gain. Secondly, we derive the closed-form expressions for power allocation through relaxing the proportional fairness constraints. Numerical simulations show that the proposed algorithm performs well in terms of satisfying proportional fairness among users in strict sense and achieving improvement on system total capacity.

文摘In this paper, a joint precoding and decoding design scheme is proposed for two-way Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) multiple-relay system. The precoding and decoding matrices are jointly optimized based on Minimum Mean-Square-Error (MMSE) criteria under transmit power constraints. The optimization problem is solved by using a convergent iterative algorithm which in-cludes four sub-problems. It is shown that due to the difficulty of the block diagonal nature of the relay precoding matrix, sub-problem two cannot be solved with existing methods. It is then solved by converting sub-problem two into a convex optimization problem and a simplified method is proposed to reduce the computational complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can achieve lower Bit Error Rate (BER) and larger sum rate than other schemes. Furthermore, the BER and the sum rate performance can be improved by increasing the number of antennas for the same number of relays or increasing the number of relays for the same number of antennas.
