Outage Probability Analysis of Relay Systems over K-μ Fading Channels

This paper provides an analytical framework for the outage probability evaluation of dual-hop decode-and-forward relay systems operating over K-μfading channels in the presence of co-channel interference. The interferers are independent non-identically distributed K-μfading. An accurate analytical-form expression for the cumulative distribution function of the received signal power to interference and noise ratio is derived. Various numerical results are compared with Monte Carlo simulation results in order to corroborate the accuracy of the proposed expressions. Our results show that increasing the value of kappa of main links will decrease the outage probability of relay systems. Furthermore, the system performance degrades with the number of interferences.

Outage Probability Analysis of Multi-relay Cooperative Decode-and-Forward System Over Generalized η–μ and κ–μ Fading Channels

In present scenario of wireless sensor networks and communications, efficient sensed data transmission among nodes is being a great confrontation because of the impulsive and volatile nature of sensors in the network. For providing that and enhancing network lifetime, there are several approaches are developed, specifically using clustering techniques. Still, there are requirements for energy based efficient routing in WSN. With that note, this paper develops anEnergy Aware Efficient Data Aggregation (EAEDAR) and Data Re-Schedulingwith the incorporation of clustering techniques. Moreover, the model used energy based cluster formation and cluster head selection for increasing the network stability and data delivery rate. The model comprises four main phases, namely, Energy factor based cluster formation, Aggregator_SN (Sensor Node) Selection, Efficient Data Aggregation (EDA) and Data Re-Scheduling based on delay and processing time. Furthermore, the model is updated with respect to the status of the nodes and links, for providing consistent network with improved reliable data transmissions. The simulation results portrays the effectiveness of the proposed model over other compared works in terms of the performance factors such as, throughput, packet delivery ratio, network lifetime, transmission delay and packet drop.

Signal Processing by Generalized Receiver in?DS-CDMA Wireless Communication Systems with?Frequency-Selective Channels

The generalized receiver (GR) based on a generalized approach to signal processing (GASP) in noise is investigated in a direct-sequence code-division multiple access (DS-CDMA) wireless communication system with frequency-selective channels. We consider four avenues: linear equalization with finite impulse response (FIR) beamforming filters; channel estimation and spatially correlation; optimal combining; and partial cancellation. We investigate the GR with simple linear equalization and FIR beamforming filters. Numerical results and simulation show that the GR with FIR beamforming filters surpasses in performance the optimum infinite impulse response beamforming filters with conventional receivers, and can closely approach the performance of GR with infinite impulse response beamforming filters. Channel estimation errors are taken into consideration so that DS-CDMA wireless communication system performance will not be degraded under practical channel estimation. GR takes an estimation error of a maximum likelihood (ML) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel estimation and GR spatially correlation into account in computation of minimum mean square error (MMSE) and log-likelihood ratio (LLR) of each coded bit. The symbol error rate (SER) performance of DS-CDMA employing GR with a quadrature sub-branch hybrid selection/maximal-ratio combining (HS/MRC) scheme for 1-D modulations in Rayleigh fading is obtained and compared with that of conventional HS/MRC receivers. Procedure of selecting a partial cancelation factor (PCF) for the first stage of a hard-decision partial parallel interference cancellation (PPIC) of the GR employed in DS-CDMA wireless communication system is proposed. A range of optimal PCFs is derived based on the Price’s theorem. Computer simulation results show superiority in bit error rate (BER) performance that is very close to that potentially achieved and surpasses the BER performance of the real PCF for DS-CDMA systems discussed in literature.     

Performance of Multiband Complex-Wavelet-Based MC-CDMA System with Space-Time Coding over Nakagami-m Fading Channels

Space-time coding technique and Multi-carrier CDMA (MC-CDMA) technique have received much interest due to their high frequency spectrum efficiency and high data rate transmission. On the basis of analyzing the two technique principle, utilizing the optimized multiband complex wavelet as multi-carrier basis function, we propose an MC-CDMA system based on multiband complex wavelet and space-time coding for downlink and investigate the system bit error rate (BER) performance over Nakagami-m fading channel. The system has much higher spectrum efficiency and data rate due to no need any cyclic prefix (CP) when compared to the conventional MC-CDMA system. Moreover, the application of space-time coding technique improves the ability against fading channel effectively and perfects the downlink performance further. Simulation results show that the proposed multiband complex-wavelet-based MC-CDMA (MBCW-MC-CDMA) system performs better than conventional MC-CDMA system and real wavelet-packet-based MC-CDMA system due to its superior ability against interferences. Especially, the space-time coded MBCW-MC-CDMA system has superior performance, and it outperforms single antenna MBCW-MC-CDMA and conventional MC-CDMA with space-time coding.

Statistical Properties for the Envelope and Phase of the α ? η ? μ Generalized Fading Channels

In this paper, a study on the statistical properties for the envelope and phase of both formats of the ?? ? ?? ? ?? generalized fading channels is provided by deriving novel closed-form expressions. Specifically, a simple and closed-form expression for the phase crossing rate of the ?? ? ?? ? ?? generalized fading channels is obtained. Moreover, exact analytical expressions for the level crossing rate and the average duration of fades, as well as the PDF of random FM noise are presented. Confirmation of the provided analytical formulations is attained by reducing the general model to some widely known special cases (Nakagami-m, Hoyt, and Rayleigh). Extra validation is performed by means of a sample of numerical results obtained by Monte Carlo simulation.     

Modelling and Performance Analysis of Energy Detector Over Weibull–Shadowed Fading Channel with Application to Cooperative Sensing

In this work, we investigate and analyse the performance of the energy detector over Weibull–Shadowed composite fading channel. To this end, we have derived the novel expressions for the probability of detection (PD) and the average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Furthermore, the asymptotic analysis of such performance metrics has been carried out and the simpler and closed-form expressions of the PD and the average AUC have been proposed with maximal ratio combining, equal gain combining, and selection combining diversity schemes. Finally, the derived results have been applied to cooperative system considering erroneous channel between secondary users and a fusion center. The derived expressions are valid for both integer and non-integer values of the multipath and shadowing parameters. The derived analytical results are corroborated by both exact numerical results and Monte-Carlo simulations, and it is shown that the performance of cooperative system not only depends on the parameters of composite fading distribution but also on the erroneous feed-back channel.

A Framework for the Analysis of UWB Receivers in Sparse Multipath Channels with Intra?Pulse Interference via Pad′e Expansion

In this letter, we propose a framework for analyzing the performance of ultra wide band (UWB) receiver architectures in sparse multipath channels with overlapped multipath components (MPCs). The proposed methodology is based on approximating the moment generating function (MGF) of the received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) via Pade expansion. The method can be applied to any fading scenarios and to any UWB receiver architectures, provided that the MGF of the SNR can be characterized in terms of a convergent Pade expansion. By comparing the results obtained from the analysis with those obtained from simulations in selected reference scenarios, it can be observed that the proposed approximation is very accurate.     

Proportional Fairness in Multi-Channel Multi-Rate Wireless Networks?Part II: The Case of Time-Varying Channels with Application to OFDM Systems

This is Part II of a two-part paper series that studies the use of the proportional fairness (PF) utility function as the basis for resource allocation and scheduling in multichannel multi-rate wireless networks. The contributions of Part II are twofold. (i) First, we extend the problem formulation, theoretical results, and algorithms to the case of time-varying channels, where opportunistic resource allocation and scheduling can be exploited to improve system performance. We lay down the theoretical foundation for optimization that ?couples? the time-varying characteristic of channels with the requirements of the underlying applications into one consideration. In particular, the extent to which opportunistic optimization is possible is not just a function of how fast the channel characteristics vary, but also a function of the elasticity of the underlying applications for delayed resource allocation. (ii) Second, building upon our theoretical framework and results, we study subcarrier allocation and scheduling in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) cellular wireless networks. We introduce the concept of a W-normalized Doppler frequency to capture the extent to which opportunistic scheduling can be exploited to achieve throughput-fairness performance gain. We show that a ?lookback PF? scheduling can strike a good balance between system throughput and fairness while taking the underlying application requirements into account.
