In this paper, the outage performance is investigated for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)-based selective amplify-and-forward cooperative networks over independent but not identically distributed (i.n.i.d.) Nakagami-m fading channels, with integer values of parameter m. A unified closed-form expression for the outage probability is derived for three selective relaying schemes. The...
In this paper, the variations of the ultrawideband (UWB) channel power as a function of the channel bandwidth are investigated. An analytical approach to characterize the fade depth and the fade margin due to small-scale fading in indoor environments is proposed. The approach is based on the IEEE 802.15.4a ultrawideband channel model and the assumption that the channel power can be modeled by a Gamma...
In this paper, the uplink of a multi-user distributed antenna system (DAS) with antenna elements deployed on a circle is investigated. We address the problem of calculating the sum-rate capacity with per-user power constraints. Based on system scale-up, we derive a good approximation of the sum-rate capacity by adopting random matrix theory. We also propose an iterative method to calculate the unknown...
In this paper, we consider a multi-relay network operating in decode-and-forward mode. We propose a novel relay selection method with a low implementation complexity. Unlike the competing schemes, it requires neither error detection methods at relay nodes nor feedback information at the source. Our proposed selection method is able to extract the full diversity. We further formulate a power allocation...
