Diversity in relaying protocols with amplify and forward
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examine a network consisting of one source, one destination and two amplifying and forwarding relays and consider a scenario in which destination and relays can have various processing limitations. For all possible diversity combining schemes at the relays and at the destination, we find diversity order results analytically and confirm our findings through numerical calculations of bit error rate (BER) versus signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) curves. We compare our results with direct transmission, well known transmit diversity methods and traditional multihop transmission and conclude that diversity reception in multihop networks provides the lowest error rate.

A Survey on Incremental Relaying Protocols in Cooperative Communication
Cooperative communication is one of the latest techniques in wireless communication to form virtual antenna arrays. Cooperative communication is an alternative method for MIMO (Multiple input multiple output) system. This scheme assumes TDMA (Time division multiple access) channel accessing and divides the communication into two phases which includes direct transmission and retransmission by th...
متن کاملD-MG Tradeoff of DF and AF Relaying Protocols over Asynchronous PAM Cooperative Networks
The diversity multiplexing tradeoff of a general two-hop asynchronous cooperative network is examined for various relaying protocols such as non-orthogonal selection decode-and-forward (NSDF), orthogonal selection decodeand-forward (OSDF), non-orthogonal amplify-and-forward (NAF), and orthogonal amplify-and-forward (OAF). The transmitter nodes are assumed to send pulse amplitude modulation (PAM...

Relay-assisted transmission schemes for wireless networks are continuing to grow because of their potential of providing the benefits of space diversity. This paper applies hybrid relaying protocols to coded cooperation which is a combined scheme of user cooperation and channel codes. The hybrid relaying protocol adaptively uses the amplify-and-forward and decode-and-forward whether a relay dec...

متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of a Cooperative OFDM system with implementation of Decode and Forward and Amplify and Forward Relaying Protocols on Text message transmission
Cooperative diversity is a newly proposed virtual MIMO technology based transmission technique achieving diversity gain through a combination of the relayed signal and the directly transmitted signal. In this paper, we made a comprehensive study to elucidate the performance of a single-relay cooperative OFDM system under Amplify-and-Forward (AAF) and Decode-and-Forward (DAF) relaying strategies...
متن کاملDesign on Precoder in Cooperative Spatial Multiplexing Systems with Amplify-and-Forward Relaying
Simple half-duplex repetition-based relaying protocols can achieve spatial diversity at the expense of additional relaying signals in the time domain. In this paper, a linear unitary precoder based on a singular vector for cooperative systems with the amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying protocol is proposed in order to improve spectral efficiency. An exact expression of the precoder design is fir...
