The concept of cognitive radio (CR) is proposed to deal with the problem that the spectrum resource is almost used up but some licensed bands are under very low utilization at the same time. In CR networks, secondary users (SUs) are allowed to utilize the licensed spectrum bands by paying to the primary users (PUs) with the spectrum licenses. Besides, with the rapid development of wireless communications...
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication underlying cellular networks and reusing cellular resources enhances the network capacity and spectrum efficiency, but causes severe interference which can degrade the system performance. In this paper, we concentrate on managing the downlink interference from D2D communication to cellular networks when sharing channel resources. First of all, a strategy based...
This correspondence demonstrates the significant gains that multiple-access users can achieve from sharing a single amplify-forward relay in slow-fading environments. The proposed protocol, namely, multiple-access amplify-forward (MAF), allows for a low-complexity relay and achieves the optimal diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) at high multiplexing gains. Analysis of the protocol further reveals...
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...
Some communication applications, like multimedia, deliver data of different importance classes allowing unequal error protection (UEP) levels. In this paper, a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is considered with a new UEP bit-loading algorithm based on the non-UEP algorithm by Chow, Cioffi, and Bingham. In the proposed bit-loading...
