We propose a rateless coded protocol for a half-duplex wireless relay channel where all links experience independent quasi-static Rayleigh fading and the instantaneous channel realizations are unavailable at the transmitters. We assume that the network does not have a stringent delay constraint-thus the source and/or the relay continue transmitting until the destination acknowledges successful decoding...
This paper addresses the optimization of resource allocation based on Decode and Forward (DF) or Amplify and Forward (AF) relaying techniques for packet access Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) networks. A power allocation quasi-optimal solution with a low complexity has been proposed for the two forwarding techniques. To illustrate theirs performances, a selection of numerical...
In this paper, we investigate an incremental opportunistic relaying scheme where the selected relay chooses to cooperate only if the source-destination channel is of an unacceptable quality. In our study, we consider regenerative relaying in which the decision to cooperate is based on a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) threshold and takes into account the effect of the possible erroneously detected and...
In this paper, we assess the random coding error exponents (EEs) corresponding to decode-and-forward (DF), compress-and-forward (CF) and quantize-and-forward (QF) relaying strategies for a parallel relay network (PRN), consisting of a single source and two relays. Moreover, through numerical analysis we show that the EEs achieved by using QF relaying along with non-Gaussian signaling (coded modulation,...
In this paper, we investigate the outage performance of decode-and-forward (DF) based opportunistic cooperative communications with channel estimation errors at the receivers under Rayleigh fading channels, in which the effect of the direct link has been explicitly evaluated. To be specific, the exact expression of outage probability has been derived for arbitrary values of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)...
This paper offers the statistical analysis of relay assignment in cooperative Decode-and-Forward (DF) networks based on order statistics. By assuming a set of N independent Rayleigh fading channels, first the channel with r-th biggest SNR is analyzed. The diversity order and average error probability for this channel are calculated. Then it is assumed that there are two clusters of terminals and the...
In this paper, focusing on a multi-source, two-stage selective decode-and-forward (DF) relaying network in which the multiple sources have a common destination, we propose an effective cooperative relaying transmission scheme via exploiting decentralized distributed space-time block coding (Dis-STBC). This scheme is a unified multi-source cooperative transmission scheme, regardless of the number of...
Selective decode and forward (SDF) based cooperative relaying protocol can provide full diversity. But SDF protocol requires bandwidth consuming cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits to prevent error propagation from the relay. Link adaptive regenerative relaying (LAR) scheme avoids the need for CRC bits to reduce the error propagation from relay and can provide full diversity. But in the conventional...
A two-way relay channel with independent parallel Gaussian channels between the relay and the two terminals is considered. Focusing on the decode-and-forward protocol, the second phase of the communication, in which the relay broadcasts the two messages to their respective receivers, is studied. Precisely, the problem of computing the power allocation among the parallel channels that maximizes the...
This paper analyzes the outage probability of cooperative communications over asymmetric fading environments. This work investigates the scenario where cooperative nodes are located at different geographical locations. Some cooperative nodes experience line of sight (LOS) signals and some nodes may experience non-LOS (NLOS) signals. As a result, signals in different links are affected by different...
We study the fundamental rate-interference trade-off between full-duplex and half-duplex transmission modes in a two-hop infrastructure-based decode-and-forward relay link. First, we derive closed-form expressions for average end-to-end capacities. Then, we show that it may be better to tolerate some loop interference in the full-duplex mode than to halve the end-to-end symbol rate by allocating two...
In downlink relay systems, the conventional straightforward relaying scheme named decode-and-forward (DF) protocol is used at relay station (RS) to decode the data received from base station (BS) and forward the decoded data to the mobile station (MS) to improve the spatial diversity gain. However, conventional DF mode is spectral inefficient and not capacity optimal since the wireless channels in...
Despite the very substantial body of research on the performance analysis of cooperative relay systems, most studies focus on either the symbol error ratio (SER) or outage behavior. This paper analyzes the asymptotic average packet error rate (PER) of the packet cooperative relay system for both AF (Amplify-and-Forward) and DF (Decode-and-Forward) schemes in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region,...
In wireless dual-hop decode-and-forward (DF) relaying networks, multiple relay stations (RS) and users construct a multiple-in-multiple-out (MIMO) broadcast channel (BC). Due to unpredictable decoding failure, scheduling the transmission for the decode-and-forward broadcast channel (DFBC) should depend on not only channel qualities but also the availability of errorless data at individual RSs. Based...
This paper considers the network coded relay protocol utilized in the cellular systems. The time division multiple access (TDMA) based opportunistic network coded cooperation(TDMA-ONCC) scheme, whose central idea is to perform the opportunistic network coded cooperation based on the observed instantaneous channel qualities of source-to-relay and relay-to-destination links, is researched. Performances...
The performance of dual-hop Decode-and-Forward relaying with relay selection (RS) and repetitive transmission is studied over Nakagami-m fading channels. Closed-form expressions for the moment generating function of RS-based transmission with maximal-ratio diversity at the destination and repetitive transmission with selection diversity (SD) are derived. We obtain the outage probability (OP) and the...
In this paper, we study resource allocation and relay selection in a decode-and-forward downlink OFDMA cooperative network assuming imperfect channel state information (CSI) at the base station (BS). We assume that due to feedback delay, the BS has only outdated CSI of BS to users and inter-user links. We propose a centralized optimization framework in which the BS takes decisions on the basis of...
In this paper, we investigate a dual-hop decode-and-forward opportunistic relaying scheme where the source may or may not be able to communicate directly with the destination. In our study, we consider a regenerative relaying scheme in which the decision to cooperate takes into account the effect of the possible erroneously detected and transmitted data at the best relay. We derive an exact closed-form...
A non-data-aided near maximum likelihood (NDA-NML) symbol timing estimator is applied to cooperative communications in fast flat-fading conditions. The performance of a three-node detect-and-forward cooperative communication system is evaluated operating in fast Rayleigh fading channels using various signal constellations with and without synchronization. Timing errors have significant effect on performance...
In this paper, we investigate the outage performance of Decode-and-Forward with reactive relaying in dual-hop cooperative Nakagami-m fading links. The destination, based on the unique knowledge of local second hop channel state information, selects the best relay to increase the chances of cooperation when the direct link is also available. After deriving the exact distribution of the variables of...
