Cooperative Diversity in Wireless Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
Transmit Diversity is an effective methodology for improving the quality and reliability of a wireless network by reducing the effects of fading. As majority of the wireless devices (i.e. mobile handsets, etc) are limited to only one antenna, especially due to hardware constraints, size and cost factors; cooperative communication can be utilized in order to generate transmit diversity [1]. This enables single antenna wireless devices to share their antennas during transmission in such a manner that creates a virtual MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) system [2] [3]. In this paper, we will analyze the recent developments and trends in this promising area of wireless Ad hoc networks. The article will also discuss various main cooperative signaling methods and will also observe their performance.

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...

متن کاملCooperative diversity routing and transmission for wireless sensor networks
In this study, the authors present a novel design framework aimed at developing ‘cooperative diversity’ in 802.11-based wireless sensor networks. The proposed scheme is a combination of a time-reversed space-time block code scheme at the physical layer and a cooperative routing protocol at the network layer. The core feature of this architecture is that the multiple routes are capable of assist...
