Two methods, theoretical analysis and calculation and Monte Carlo simulation, are used for the evaluations. By theoreti- cal analysis and calculation, frequency efficiency equation of a relay is introduced and numerical results are calculated. Monte Carlo simulation results also verify that the calculation method is reasonable. The evaluation shows that a relay can increase system performance to a certain level if it is designed appropriately, otherwise it will be harmful for the system performance, even to reduce it.展开更多

Based on the PseudoBayesian algorithm, this mechanism predicts the number of RACHs for the next frame according to the current load. A new dynamic RACH assignment algorithm and an adaptive access probability method are adopted by the proposed scheme to irrprove the utilization ratio of RACH resources and increase the successful access rate. Numerical simulation shows that the proposed strategy achieves both improvement in the utilization ratio of RACHs and reduction in the access delay compared with other RACH allocation schemes.展开更多

Multiple access interference caused by CFOs in the uplink is investigated, as it severely affects the performance of a classical maximum likelihood （ML） frequency estimator. By the use of the estimated CFOs of the active users, the linear maximum mean square error （LMMSE） equalization is performed before the ML frequency estimator for the interference cancellation, which can help to sufficiently improve the estimation accuracy for the residual CFO of the incoming user. Analysis and simulations show that the modified ML estimator provides a tradeoff between estimation accuracy and computational complexity caused by the LMMSE interference cancellation, and the proposed method allows OFDMA systems flexibly allocating subcarriers to users.展开更多

After analyzing the algorithm of PIC(parallel interference cancellation) MUD, a novel MUD scheme, Soft-PIC (soft parallel interference cancellation) is proposed. Based on the reliability of each detected user signal in the former stage, this Soft-PIC detection scheme substitutes a soft decision of the variable for the hard decision in PIC scheme. Compared with the PIC scheme, it can reconstruct the interference signals more accurately and eliminate MAI(multiple access interference) in a more efficient way.PIC is one of the most practical schemes in numerous multiuser detection technologies. However, Soft-PIC as an improved PIC scheme deserves further study.展开更多
