In this paper, we investigate opportunistic relay and jammer cooperation schemes in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) buffer-aided relay networks. The network consists of one source, an arbitrary number of relay nodes, legitimate users and eavesdroppers, with the constraints of physical layer security. We propose an algorithm to select a set of relay nodes to enhance the legitimate users’ t...

The research on distributed MIMO relay system has been attracting much attention. In this paper, a decode-and-forward scheme distributed MIMO relay system is examined. For upper bound of channel capacity, the distance between transceivers is optimized when the propagation loss is brought close to actuality. Additionally, the number of relay is optimized whether total antenna element is fixed or...

In this paper, a new scheme is suggested for cooperative beamforming (BF) and relay selection in CR networks, where a pair of secondary users communicates with each other assisted by some multiple antenna relay nodes. The goal of the algorithm is to maximize signal to interference plus noise ratio of secondary user receiver subject to limited interference caused for primary user receiver and po...

Unknown process parameters are identified using limit cycle data of the relay–response curves obtained from single relay feedback test on second order plus dead time (SOPDT) processes. Time domain analytical expressions of these curves are helpful in deriving conditions to estimate process parameters accurately. Identification algorithms are formulated to estimate minimal number of model parame...

In wireless networks, it has always been a challenge to satisfy high traffic throughput demands, due to limited spectrum resources. In past decades, various techniques, including cooperative communications, have been developed to achieve higher communication rates. This thesis addresses the challenges imposed by cooperative wireless networks, in particular focusing on practical code constructio...

System Design and Outage Analysis for Cooperative Diversity Wireless Networks by Sungjoon Park Chair: Wayne E. Stark Relay communication systems have recently been gaining momentum as an alternative to cellular architectures because of the ability to provide cost-efficient high spectral efficiency communications. The goal of this thesis is to investigate opportunistic relay communication strate...

We consider an erasure relay network where the sender sends an information flow that can be received by a receiver and a relay. The relay forwards some part of the information and we assume that relay and sender transmission do not interfere with each other, and receiver is able to receive in parallel information that are sent from sender and relay on different channels. The interferences betwe...

We apply the concept of artificial and controlled interference in a two-hop relay network with an untrusted relay, aiming at enhancing the wireless communication secrecy between the source and the destination node. In order to shield the square quadrature amplitude-modulated (QAM) signals transmitted from the source node to the relay, the destination node designs and transmits artificial noise ...

Relaying is one of the new key features that has been defined for LTE-Advanced (3GPP Rel’ 10) in order to improve to and extend the coverage area among other advantages. In the 3GPP Technical Report [1] some architecture alternatives were considered for a case when relay becomes a part of the fixed access network. It is concluded in the report that the architecture based on proxy S1/X2 has more...
