چکیده

In this paper, a decode-and-forward cooperative communication system using hierarchical modulation (HM) to improve bit error probability (BER) performance is proposed. A HM symbol has high priority (HP) and low priority (LP) data streams that have different levels of BER. In the proposed scheme, all decoded symbols are treated as HP symbol by suitable design for cooperative communication. Consequently, the proposed scheme makes it possible to obtain equal BER performance in both streams. Simulation result shows that the proposed scheme provides better BER performance than conventional cooperative communication scheme in same rate.

Adaptive Relay Scheme Based on Post SNR in Cooperative Communication System

In this paper, an adaptive relay scheme based on post SNR in cooperative communication system is proposed. conventional cooperative scheme has used the same modulation at a relay. The proposed scheme uses hierarchical modulation at the source and adaptive transmission based on the post signal to noise ratio (SNR) at a relay. Accordingly, the symbol error rate (SER) and throughput performances a...

Cooperative CDD Scheme Based on Hierarchical Modulation in OFDM System

In order to achieve high data rate and increase the spectral efficiency, multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system has been proposed. However, multiple antennas are limited by size and cost. Therefore, recently developed cooperative diversity scheme, which profits the transmit diversity only with the existing hardware by constituting a virtual antenna array, can be a solution. However, most ...

Reducing MIMO Detection Complexity via Hierarchical Modulation

This work considers multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems using hierarchical modulation. A disadvantage of the maximum-likelihood (ML) MIMO detector is that computational complexity increases exponentially with the number of transmit antennas. To reduce complexity, we propose a hierarchical modulation scheme to be used in MIMO transmission where base and enhancement layers...

Performance Analysis of Wireless Cooperative Networks with Iterative Incremental Relay Selection

In this paper, an iterative incremental relay selection (IIRS) scheme is considered for wireless cooperative networks in order to increase the reliability of transmission. Different from the conventional incremental relay selection which incrementally selects a best relay for only one iteration; the IIRS scheme iteratively applies the incremental relaying and relay selection processes. To evalu...
