Performance Analysis of the Link-adaptive Cooperative Amplify-and-forward Relay Networks with Opportunistic Relaying Strategy

چکیده
This paper analyzes the performance of cooperative amplify-and-forward (CAF) relay networks that employ adaptive M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM)/M-ary phase shift keying (M-PSK) digital modulation techniques in Nakagami-m fading channel. In particular, we present and compared the analysis of CAF relay networks with different cooperative diversity and opportunistic routing strategies such as regular Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC), Selection Diversity Combining (SDC), Opportunistic Relay Selection with Maximal Ratio Combining (ORS-MRC) and Opportunistic Relay Selection with Selection Diversity Combining (ORS-SDC). We advocate a simple yet unified numerical approach based on the marginal moment generating function (MGF) of the total received SNR to compute the average symbol error rate (ASER), mean achievable spectral efficiency, and outage probability performance metrics.

Optimal Power Management to Minimize SER in Amplify and-Forward Relay Networks
This paper studies optimal power allocation to minimize symbol error rate (SER) of amplify-and-forward cooperative diversity networks. First, we analytically solve optimal power allocation problem to minimize SER for three different scenarios, namely, multi-branch single-relay, single-branch multi-relay and multi-branch multi-relay cooperative diversity networks, all subject to a given total re...
متن کاملAdaptive Delay-Tolerant DSTBC in Opportunistic Relaying Cooperative MIMO Systems
An adaptive delay-tolerant distributed space-time coding (DSTC) scheme with feedback is proposed for two-hop cooperative multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) networks using an amplify-and-forward strategy and opportunistic relaying algorithms. Maximum likelihood receivers and adjustable code matrices are considered subject to a power constraint. In the proposed delay-tolerant DSTC scheme, an a...
متن کاملPerformance 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...
متن کاملOpportunistic 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...

In this paper two different rateless transmissionschemes are developed. In the proposed scheme, relay node candecode and forward the message to the destination if they areable to decode it, or amplify and forward the message to thedestination. Based on the analysis and simulation resultsprovided in this paper, the proposed method has bettertransmission time than the scheme which only the relay ...
