Constructive Interference Flooding (CI-Flooding) is a promising concurrent transmission technique for multiple senders synchronously transmitting the same packet, and interfere constructively at the common receiver in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Constructive Interference (CI) enables reliable and fast network flooding, to decrease the scheduling overhead of MAC protocols, improve link quality...
In this paper, we investigate the packet decoding performance degradation due to the joint effects of synchronization and channel estimation errors in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based time-division cooperating transmission (TDCT) for the purpose of range extension. The signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) of maximal ratio combining (MRC) with OFDM TDCT is analyzed in...
Physical layer network coding (PNC) has recently attracted attention in wireless relay system. With PNC, the destructive effect of interference in wireless networks can be eliminated and the capacity of networks can be boosted significantly. However, synchronization is always considered as an outstanding issue which causes performance penalty on PNC. In [7], the impact of imperfect synchronization...
D2D communication in LTE-A cellular networks can improve overall system performance such as throughput and power consumption substantially and can enable and enhance many proximity based applications. This research topic gains great interest in both academic and industrial fields in recent years. The relevant 3GPP standardization on D2D communication has already begun in several discussion groups...
Physical-layer network coding (PNC) is a natural extension of network coding in wireless communication networks. PNC utilizes the addition characteristic of the electromagnetic wave rationally and improves the throughout in wireless networks significantly. This paper focuses on a key issue in PNC: the effect of pulse shaping on the performance of time synchronization errors. Analysis and simulation...
Multiuser cooperation is potential to improve the network throughput and increase the intended end-to-end communication reliability. For different purposes, the cooperative node has two selections: transmit its own signals or relay the intended source's message. Unlike the conventional relay selection problems, we consider a new scenario in which the receiver can perform interference cancellation...
A physical-layer network coding (PNC) aided twoway relay scheme is proposed for Transmitted-Reference (TR) UWB networks. In particular, a novel noncoherent UWB-PNC detector is investigated for the TR UWB networks. Inheriting the simplicity of the TR-UWB receiver, the proposed PNC detector is based on the autocorrelation receiver (AcR) with simple structure, which effectively suppresses the multi-user...
This paper presents Glossy, a novel flooding architecture for wireless sensor networks. Glossy exploits constructive interference of IEEE 802.15.4 symbols for fast network flooding and implicit time synchronization. We derive a timing requirement to make concurrent transmissions of the same packet interfere constructively, allowing a receiver to decode the packet even in the absence of capture effects...
In this paper, a new space-frequency combination technique is proposed for Alamouti coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) in the context of cooperative communications. Since cooperative antennas are distributed, there may exist multiple carrier frequency offsets (MCFOs) which cause problems for conventional space-frequency decoding. The proposed algorithm, taking cues from existing...
We investigate the use of a timing synchronization technique within cooperative multi-hop networks with and without direct transmission between the source and destination nodes. In particular, we employ a parallel interference cancellation (PIC) technique to combat the effect of timing misalignment of the received signal at both the relay and the destination nodes. We compare the advantage in using...
In this paper, the effect of the time difference of arrival (TDoA) on synchronous types or asynchronous types of OFDMA-based multi-hop relay (MR) systems is investigated. Effective SINRs for downlinks and uplinks are defined to measure the degree of interference due to TDoA in asymmetric MR systems. A path selection technique based on the effective SINR is then proposed to determine the optimal paths...
This paper proposes a novel approach to interference avoidance via inter-cell relaying in cellular OFDMA-TDD (orthogonal frequency division multiple access - time division duplex) systems. The proposed scheme, termed asymmetry balancing, is targeted towards next-generation cellular wireless systems which are envisaged to have ad hoc and multi-hop capabilities. Asymmetry balancing resolves the detrimental...
In this paper, we propose a robust STBC transmission scheme to combat the timing synchronization errors over frequency-selective multiple-access channels. First, the equivalent channel model in the presence of timing synchronization errors is derived and we find that the synchronization errors result in an equivalent channel model with larger number of correlated channel taps. Based on this correlated...
Li and Xia have recently investigated the design of space-time codes that achieve full spatial diversity for asynchronous cooperative communications. They show that certain of the binary space-time trellis codes derived from the Hammons-El Gamal stacking construction are delay tolerant and can be used in the multilevel code constructions by Lu and Kumar to produce delay tolerant space-time codes for...
