On the Performance of Cooperative Amplify-and-Forward Relay Networks

چکیده
This paper provides a general analysis of cooperative amplify-and-forward relay networks and gives a unified and comparative view of various proposed systems. The studied cooperative relay networks offer spatial diversity gains that conventional multi-antenna systems often fail to achieve due to limitations of the feasible number of antennas per terminal and correlated propagation. We first present a general analysis for the case of multiple antennas per node, which is subsequently used to investigate the relative attractiveness of cooperative schemes for various parameters that include SNR, spectral efficiency, and spatial correlation. We conclude that such virtual antenna arrays are an attractive option to overcome the drawbacks of conventional relaying systems.

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...

In this paper, our objective is maximizing total sum-rate subject to power constraints on total relay transmit power or individual relay powers, for amplify-and-forward single-antenna relay-based wireless communication networks. We derive a closed-form solution for the total power constraint optimization problem and show that the individual relay power constraints optimization problem is a quad...

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 ...
متن کاملPerformance Study of Untrusted Relay Network Utilizing Cooperative Jammer
Abstract—In this paper, the problem of secure transmission in two-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) systems with an untrusted relay is investigated. To prevent the untrusted relay from intercepting the source message and to achieve positive secrecy rate, the destination-based cooperative jamming (DBCJ) technique is used. In this method the destination sends an intended jamming signal to the relay. T...
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...

In this paper, power efficiency (PE) of a relay interference channel including multiple transmitter nodes, multiple relay nodes and multiple destination is investigated. It is assumed that the destination and transmitter nodes are equipped with a few number of antennas but the relay nodes have a large number of antennas. Amplify-forward and decode-forward schemes by using MRT/MRC and ZF process...
