窃听环境下AF中继选择与功率分配的研究

传统的最佳中继选择方案仅参考了合法用户的信道状态信息,在实际的通信系统中由于存在窃听用户而无法保证信息的可靠传输。现有的最佳中继选择方案将窃听用户的信道状态信息纳入考虑后,系统的安全性能得到了一定改善,但是依然采用的是等功率分配。针对放大转发协议,本文在现有最佳中继选择方案的基础上,以降低系统安全中断概率为目标,在系统总功率受限的前提下,根据源节点和中继节点以及中继节点和目的节点间的信道参数引出功率分配因子,对源节点和中继节点间的功率进行适当分配。通过仿真对比,可以发现功率分配能够降低系统的安全中断概率,从而改善系统的安全性能。      

Outage Performance of Dual-Hop AF Relay Channels with Co-Channel Interferences over Rayleigh Fading

This paper studies the outage performance of a dual-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) relay fading channel in an interference-limited environment. The relay and destination nodes are corrupted by multiple co-channel Rayleigh interferences. New exact closed-form expressions for the outage probability for channel-state-information (CSI)—assisted relay, in which gain is dependent on previous hop CSI and interference, are derived. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to verify the obtained theoretical results. For the cases where the number of interferers at the relay and the destination node is equal, we derive novel expressions for outage probability upper and lower bounds.     

System performance analysis of cooperative multihop relaying network applying approximation to dual‐hop relaying network

In this paper, the closed‐form expressions for outage probability, channel capacity, and average symbol error probability are derived for amplify‐and‐forward multihop relay network. Based on approximation of multihop relay by dual‐hop relay systems, the analytical expressions are obtained for the case when maximal ratio combining technique is employed at each relay while destination node uses selection combining technique. The impact of system and channel parameters on the system performances is investigated, and numerical results are graphically presented. The derived analytical expressions are verified by numerical simulation.     

Opportunistic Decode-and-Forward Relaying with Interferences at Relays

In this paper, a decode-and-forward cooperative interference-limited multiple relay network is considered. An efficient relay selection strategy and its performance analysis are proposed, where only the relay nodes are affected by multiple interferences. In the proposed relay selection scheme, the selected relay is not always used, depending on the power of interferences and the channel state information of all links, while the direct path between source and destination is always used. For analytical tractability the distribution of interference-limited channel is approximated as an exponential distribution with high accuracy. Analysis of cooperative networks with interference-limited relays can be performed using the approximate exponential distribution by the same methods which have been used without interferences. We derive the bit error probability and outage probability of the proposed opportunistic max-min relay selection (OMRS) scheme in independent non-identically distributed Rayleigh fading channels. Numerical results present the superiority of OMRS over the conventional relay selection scheme which always uses the selected relay path. The exactness of the approximate analysis for interference-limited relays is also shown in numerical results.     

End‐to‐end performance of transmit antenna selection and generalized selection combining in dual‐hop amplify‐and‐forward relay network in the presence of feedback errors

In this paper, end‐to‐end performance of transmit antenna selection (TAS) and generalized selection combining (GSC) is studied in a dual‐hop amplify‐and‐forward relay network over flat Rayleigh fading channels. In the system, source and destination equipped with multiple antennas, communicate by the help of single relay equipped with single antenna. Source‐destination link is not available. TAS is used for transmission at the source, and GSC is used for reception at the destination. By considering the relay location and the presence of error in feedback channel from the relay to the source, we derive closed‐form outage probability, moment generating function and moments of end‐to‐end signal‐to‐noise ratio, and closed‐form symbol error probability (SEP) expressions for channel state information (CSI)‐based and fixed relay gains. The diversity order and array gain of the network are obtained for both CSI‐based and fixed relay gains by deriving asymptotical outage probability and SEP expressions. The analytical results are validated by the Monte Carlo simulations. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Nakagami 信道下一种改进的DAF模型中断概率的研究

This paper proposes a modified decode and forward (DAF) protocol with a three node model, which contains two users and one destination. Each user can be either the source or the relay in different frames. We analyze the four cooperative cases in the first frame and run simulations to obtain the optimal power allocation coefficients in the second frame. The closed form expression of outage probability is derived over Nakagami m fading channels. Furthermore, we show that the proposed model has better performance than the non cooperation system and traditional DAF strategy based on the derived outage probability.     

Secrecy outage analysis in a hybrid cognitive relay network with energy harvesting

In this paper, we investigate the physical layer security of a hybrid cognitive relay network using an energy harvesting relay in presence of an eavesdropper. In the hybrid scheme, a secondary user (SU) as well as a cognitive relay works either in underlay or in overlay mode. In underlay, the transmit power of the SU as well as the relay is limited by the maximum acceptable interference at primary user (PU) receiver as required by an outage constraint of PU, a quality of service for PU. The secondary network consists of a decode and forward relay that harvests energy from radio frequency signal of secondary transmitter as well as PU transmitter to assist the SU in forwarding the information signal to the destination. A time switching relaying protocol is used at the relay. We evaluate the secrecy outage probability of secondary relay network assuming that channel state information of the interfering links from both the SU and relay transmitter to PU receiver is imperfect. Our results reveal the impact of imperfect channel state information, energy harvesting time, tolerable interference threshold, and PU outage constraint on the secrecy outage probability of SU.     

Nth best relay selection with network coding in two‐way relay systems

In this paper, we propose an Nth best relay selection (Nth‐RS) scheme for analog network coding in two‐way relay systems. In traditional two‐way single‐relay selection schemes, only the best one is selected to forward network‐coded signals. However, in practical applications, the best relay may be unavailable because of the scheduling or overload constraints. In this case, we investigate a more general scheme, where the Nth best but available relay is selected. To evaluate the transmission of reliability, the expression of outage probability in exponential–integral form and its asymptotic expression in closed form are presented. Moreover, the upper bound and lower bound of outage probability are also derived. The analysis reveals that the diversity order of Nth‐RS equals to (M ? N + 1), where M is the number of relay nodes, and the results are verified by simulations. In order to improve system performance, transmit power between sources and relay is optimally allocated to minimize the upper bound of outage probability under total power constraint. Simulation results show that Nth‐RS scheme with proposed power allocation can achieve substantial improvement over equal power allocation scheme. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

PL approximation of DBPSK in DF-based cooperative FSO network with pointing error

In this paper, we utilize piecewise linear (PL) approximation to analyze the performance of cooperative free space optical (FSO) network employing differentially modulated binary phase shift keying (DBPSK) data with multiple decode-and-forward (DF) relays. The maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding rule at the destination is approximated by PL approximation which considers the possibility of erroneous relaying and performs very similar to the ML decoder with reduced decoding complexity. The atmospheric fading optical links are modeled by Gamma–Gamma distribution subject to both types of detection techniques, i.e., heterodyne detection and intensity modulation/direct detection (IM/DD) with pointing error. We analytically formulate the probability of error for the multiple-DF relay-based FSO network. However, the novel unified expression of average bit error rate (BER) of PL decoder with single relay and single source to destination pair is derived. Further, we also derive the asymptotic approximate BER of DF-FSO network with multiple relays at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of source to relay links considering heterodyne detection with negligible pointing error. In addition, the unified closed-form expressions of outage probability with single and multiple DF relays are derived in terms of Meijer G function. The expression of outage probability is examined at high SNR in order to obtain analytical diversity order. The impact of different power distribution techniques on outage probability is determined by utilizing power distribution parameters. The derived analytical results are validated through simulation.
