چکیده

The performance of cooperative diversity with opportunistic beamforming is analyzed in rayleigh fading channels. Cooperative communication is viewed as a method for increasing diversity gain and reducing end to end path loss. The use of relays can create a virtual antenna array so that it allows users to exploit the advantages of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) techniques. In this paper we show that opportunistic beamforming is beneficial for cooperation transmission with multiple relays where the main goal is a very low bit error rate (BER)of the system. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of opportunistic beamforming with cooperative diversity techniques.

مدیریت تداخل در شبکه‌های رادیوشناختگر با استفاده از شکل‌دهی پرتو همکارانه تحت اطلاعات غیر دقیق کانال

In this paper, a more realistic cognitive radio network is proposed which considers several secondary links, some secondary relays, and one primary link. In the network, there are two steps of transmission from secondary sources to secondary destinations. At the first step, when primary link is idle, all of the secondary sources simultaneously broadcast their information to the relays. At the s...

Opportunistic nonorthogonal amplify-and-forward cooperative communications

Introduction: Cooperative communications [1] create diversity gains for network users with a single antenna. The classical cooperative scheme consists of two orthogonal time slots (TS): a broadcasting TS for a source (S) to transmit its signal to the intended destination (D), and a relaying TS for a relay (R) to retransmit S’s signal to D. There are amplify-and-forward (AF) and decode-and-forwa...

Link Quality Control Mechanism for Selective and Opportunistic AF Relaying in Cooperative ARQs: A MLSD Perspective

Incorporating relaying techniques into Automatic Repeat reQuest (ARQ) mechanisms gives a general impression of diversity and throughput enhancements. Allowing overhearing among multiple relays is also a known approach to increase the number of participating relays in ARQs. However, when opportunistic amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying is applied to cooperative ARQs, the system design becomes non...

On the security of cooperative cognitive radio networks with distributed beamforming

This paper investigates the secrecy performance of amplify-and-forward (AF)-relaying cooperative cognitive radio networks (CCRNs) over Rayleigh-fading channels. Specifically, we consider practical passive eavesdropping scenarios, where the channel state information of the eavesdropper’s link is not available at the secondary transmitter. In order to avoid interfering with the primary receiver a...

Correlation-Based Cooperative Opportunistic Beamforming in Cellular Systems

In this paper, we consider a cooperative opportunistic beamforming scheme that can mitigate other cell interference (OCI) in downlink cellular environments. By exploiting the spatial channel correlation of adjacent cells, a random beam is cooperatively generated to statistically avoid the OCI from adjacent cells. Selecting its user for the proposed random beam in an opportunistic manner, the pr...
