基于OFDM协作中继的机会主义频谱共享协议及其最优资源分配

提出了一种基于OFDM协作中继的机会主义频谱共享协议。当主用户信道不好,不能达到其要求速率时,如果认知用户能够协作帮助主用户达到其要求速率,则该认知用户就可以以协作的方式接入主用户的频谱。在该接入方式中,认知用户利用接入频谱中的一部分子载波放大转发主用户的信息,帮助主用户达到其要求速率。然后可以利用剩余的子载波发送自己的信息。对这种接入方式中的资源分配进行了分析,利用对偶算法,提出了一种以最大化认知用户速率,保证主用户速率达到要求速率为原则的最优资源分配算法。如果认知用户不能够协作帮助主用户达到要求速率,为了有效地利用频谱资源,认知用户以非协作的方式接入主用户的频谱,利用接入的全部频谱来发送自己的信息。仿真结果验证了所提频谱共享协议的有效性,同时说明了主用户和认知用户都能够从该协议中获得好处。

载波叠加技术的频谱效率分析

卫星通信中,载波叠加技术可以通过载波间交叠的方式在同一频段实现带宽共享,理论上能大幅降低载波带宽占用和带宽租赁费用.然而转发器资源是由功率和带宽组成的,两者的占用比应遵从功带平衡原则,但载波叠加技术降低了带宽占用却没有降低功率占用,这导致了其在实际应用中受转发器功率因素限制而无法发挥其技术优势,对于载波的频谱效率提升效果在不同应用场景中也有所不同,因此有必要进行计算分析得出其实际性能水平.通过对载波叠加技术和常规卫星通信方式进行带宽、功率和信道容量三者间的关系分析、量化计算和结果对比,得出该技术的频谱效率提升性能及在不同应用场景中的实用性.

Downlink Radio Resource Management Through CoMP and Carrier Aggregation for LTE-Advanced Network

Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) offers several new technologies to improve the performance of the user. However, poor received signal and interference from adjacent cells in the cell-edge area can reduce the efficiency of using individual technology. Therefore, the cell-edge users have lower throughput compared to the other users in the cell and LTE-A standard. An efficient downlink radio resource management scheme is proposed in this paper by combining the coordinated multipoint transmission and reception technique along with carrier aggregation technique to achieve higher throughput for the cell-edge user and better overall performance. The proposed method jointly transmits multiple component carriers to the cell-edge user from different cells to increase the bandwidth, strengthen the received signal, and reduce the interference while it satisfies several constraints. Modified largest weighted delay first packet scheduling algorithm is deployed for resource allocation, which takes into account the delay parameters, the probability of packet loss, and data rates of the user. The obtained system-level simulation results show that the proposed method significantly enhances the throughput performances, spectral efficiency, and fairness index, compared with the existing conventional methods.

Mechanism-based resource allocation for multimedia transmission over spectrum agile wireless networks

We propose to add a new dimension to existing wireless multimedia systems by enabling autonomous stations to dynamically compete for communication resources through adjustment of their internal strategies and sharing their private information. We focus on emerging spectrum agile wireless networks, where developing an efficient strategy for managing available communication resources is of high importance. The proposed dynamic resource management approach for wireless multimedia changes the passive way stations are currently adapting their joint source-channel coding strategies according to available wireless resources. Each wireless station can play the resource management game by adapting its multimedia transmission strategy depending on the experienced channel conditions and user requirements. The resource allocation game is coordinated by a network moderator, which deploys mechanism-based resource management to determine the amount of transmission time to be allocated to various users on different frequency bands such that certain global system metrics are optimized. Subsequently, the moderator charges the various users based on the amount of resources it has allocated to them, in order to discourage them from being dishonest about their resource requirements. We investigate and quantify both the users' and the system performance when different cross-layer strategies, and hence users' levels of smartness, are deployed by wireless stations. Our simulations show that mechanism-based resource management outperforms conventional techniques such as air-fair time and equal time resource allocation in terms of the obtained system utility. They also provide insights that can guide the design of emerging spectrum agile network protocols and applications     

Spectrum sharing method for secondary systems using frequency priority table to reduce inter-secondary interference

Because of the rapid development of cognitive radio technologies, research on sharing frequency resources allocated to primary users with secondary users has attracted much attention. If a frequency band is unused by the primary users, multiple secondary users are expected to share the spectrum in a future wireless communication network. To efficiently share the spectrum among secondary systems, we propose a novel channel allocation method that uses a frequency priority table generated based on the location of the secondary system. By using this method, the interference with other systems is autonomously reduced by selecting channels. Moreover, a power control method is also proposed for protecting the secondary systems that are allocated to the channels with higher priority.

A Novel Multi-carrier Order Division Multi-access Communication System Based on TDCS with Fractional Fourier Transform Scheme

In this paper, we propose a novel fractional Fourier transform (FrFT) based multi-carrier order division multi-access communication system, in which each user is uniquely identified by an FrFT order. Transform domain communication system (TDCS) with FrFT scheme is also proposed to synthesize the wide-band baseband waveforms in all FrFT domains with different users’ FrFT orders, which enhances the interference avoidance capability of this system under most of interference. Therefore, multiple independent data streams can be transmitted by using FrFT–OFDM in the same time and different FrFT domains. However, chirp bases, as the new kind of carriers with different modulated rates, are merely mutually approximately orthogonal. There is a problem of energy leakage between multiple chirp carriers, which possibly causes the multiple chirp carriers inter-shielding to influence the FrFT–OFDM demodulation performance. An efficient allocation algorithm of multiple chirp carriers by presetting the carrier parameters is proposed to solve this problem. Based on MC-CDMA, a variable bit rate system structure is proposed for TDCS with FrFT scheme under different channel environments. In order to simplify the process of modulation and demodulation of TDCS with FrFT scheme, a whole new cyclic shift key modulation mode in FrFT domain is also proposed. Both theories and simulations confirm strictly the validity of the proposed system.
