在无线通信中,为了对抗信道衰落,人们提出了分集技术。协作分集通过共享资源达到改善通信质量、提高通信性能的目的。研究了放大转发协作通信系统中的功率分配策略。对于协作通信系统的功率分配研究了3种方法:迭代法,直接计算法,理想的穷搜索法。研究表明,迭代法是最佳方案,因为这种方法的迭代次数可以人为控制,而且性能与理想的穷搜索法相差不大。     

基于DF协议的功率分配和伙伴选择策略研究

在无线通信系统中,利用协作通信技术可以获得一定的分集增益,从而有效的提高系统性能。以容量最大化为优化目标,基于DF（解码转发）模式,研究了三节点协作通信中的功率分配与伙伴选择的问题,研究结果表明,当三节点间的信道衰落功率增益满足一定的条件时可以有效的提高系统的容量。

为了最大限度地利用移动终端的发射功率,提出了基于中断概率限制的混合转发协作通信功率分配方案。根据目的节点和中继节点的译码情况,选择合适的协作转发方式,充分利用了放大转发(AF)和译码转发(DF)方式的优点。在满足中断概率限制的条件下,采用图形和数值分析的方法,得到了源节点和中继节点的最优功率分配。仿真分析表明,在相同的中断概率限制下,采用的功率分配方案比等功率分配方案消耗的总功率少约2.8 dBm。     

基于OFDM的DF多跳通信系统的功率分配

研究了DF多跳OFDM通信系统的功率分配优化.在总发射功率受限的条件下,提出了一种双向优化功率分配算法(D-OPA):先优化单个子载波上各中继节点的功率分配,使该子载波上的信道容量最大;再优化各个子载波间的功率分配,使单跳的信道容量最大,从而最大化系统的信道容量.仿真结果表明:提出的算法与自适应功率分配算法、平均功率分配算法相比,信道容量明显提高.     

双中继协作通信的功率分配改进方案

为克服信息处于深度衰落情况下单中继协作困难,减少多中继协作目的端信号处理的复杂度,给出了双中继节点参与协作通信的功率分配方案。两个中继节点分别采用放大转发(AF)、译码转发(DF)以及混合译码放大转发(HDAF)3种协作方式进行通信。在满足一定的中断概率和节点功率限制情况下,利用MATLAB软件中的Fmincon优化函数,得到了各节点的最小发射功率。数值分析表明,在相同条件下,两个中继节点采用HDAF协作方式比采用AF协作方式、DF协作方式消耗的系统总功率分别少4~9 dBm、0.5~1 dBm,最大限度地节约了系统功率的消耗。     

非对称协作通信中的时变功率分配算法

针对反射、散射影响下的非对称无线协作通信网络,提出了一种时变功率分配(Time Variant Power Allocation, TVPA)算法。根据无线协作网络中,各节点之间信道条件实时变化且不对称的特点,在信号传输过程中对信源节点和中继节点的发送信号功率进行优化分配。借助信道编码定理,将系统错误概率最小的非凸优化问题转化为最大化系统容量的凸优化问题来解。与固定功率分配(Fixed Power Allocation, FXPA)算法和平均功率分配(Average Power Allocation, AVPA)算法相比,该算法能充分利用无线信道的时变特性,重新分配功率以降低系统错误概率。在多种网络模型中的仿真结果表明,准静态瑞利衰落信道下,相比于FXPA算法,TVPA算法可获得多达5.5dB的比特错误概率性能增益。随着网络质量的进一步改善,该性能优势也逐步增大。      

基于误码率最小化的V-BLAST系统的最优功率分配

多输入多输出无线通信系统能通过空间复用提供巨大的信道容量。结合自适应技术，从最小化误码率的角度，针对两根发射天线的V-BLAST系统提出了一种新的天线间功率分配方案。所提方案根据信道情况分配各天线的发射功率，减小了误差传播效应带来的影响。仿真结果表明与传统的V-BLAST算法相比，在两发两收V-BLAST系统中，误码率为10^-3时，可获得2dB的信噪比增益，在误码率低于10^-3时，可获得至少1．5dB的信噪比增益。     

Performance of amplify forward and decode forward cooperative strategies for body surface communications in UWB Body Area Networks

Body area networks (BAN) are being developed for telemonitoring of patients. Ultra wideband (UWB) is the most preferred choice for the physical layer of the BAN as it provides high data rate at low power consumption along with a simple transceiver structure. But because of high fading characteristics of the human body channel, the range of UWB will be limited, and a reliable communication cannot be guaranteed. In that case, cooperative communications may be applied to BAN for improving system performance and link quality. The paper proposes a novel approach by applying amplify and forward, and decode and forward cooperative relaying strategies with maximal ratio combining for BAN. The performance of single relay AF and DF relaying have been compared with direct transmission. Further, the efficacy of the proposed strategies has been validated by transmitting electrocardiogram signals and magnetic resonance imaging images. Simulations and validations have been carried out on Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers designated CM3 channel model for BAN designed from real time measurements data. A signal‐to‐noise ratio gain of at least 3 dB is clearly observed from simulation results. Thus, transmit power requirement can be minimized, which in turn improves the battery life of body sensor nodes. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Particle swarm optimization–based power allocation for Alamouti amplify and forward relaying protocol

The performance of wireless communication systems is improved over flat fading channel by using Alamouti coding scheme, which provides the quality of diversity gain. In this paper, performance analysis of symbol error rate (SER) and particle swarm optimization (PSO)–based power allocation (PA) for Alamouti amplify and forward (AF) relaying protocol using maximum ratio combining (MRC) technique is presented. Analytical expression of SER upper bound and SER approximation is derived for Alamouti AF relaying protocol with quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation over Rayleigh fading channel and Rician fading channel. In addition, PSO‐based optimum PA factor is calculated on the basis of the minimum SER of proposed method. PSO‐based optimum PA gives 0.5 dB of improved signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) compared with the equal power allocation (EPA). The theoretical approximate SER result is compared with the simulated SER. The proposed protocol provides full diversity gain and reduces SER compared with the existing AF and decode and forward (DF) relaying protocols over Rayleigh fading channel and Rician fading channel.     

改进蛙跳算法的多中继协作系统最优功率分配

协作通信与直接通信相比能够显著地提高系统性能,功率分配是协作通信中的一个关键问题。为了获得合理的协作中继通信系统功率分配方案,提出一种基于改进蛙跳算法的多中继节点功率分配方法。首先对功率分配问题进行分析,将其转换为一个非线性优化问题,然后将青蛙表示为源节点,中继节点的功率,以平均信噪比作为青蛙的食物,并通过青蛙的信息交流和协作找到最优的功率分配方案,最后采用仿真对比实验对本文算法性能进行测试。仿真结果表明,相对于其它功率分配方法,改进蛙跳算法有效地提高了系统的信道容量,降低了中断概率,以较低的复杂度提高了系统的性能。     

Comparative performance of multi-antenna decode and forward relay network

Cooperative relaying is an effective technique to combat multi-path fading, improves system capacity and enhances the coverage. In this paper, three different types of operations of infrastructure-based multi-antenna cooperative relay network have been investigated. Closed form expressions of outage probability and average error rate for each type of operation have been derived, when the relay and destination perform maximum ratio combining (MRC) of signals. The effect of antennas installed on relay and its placement has also been studied in this work.     

对数正态分布下的无线光通信系统误码率分析

对开关键控(OOK)强度调制直接检测(IM/DD)方式的无线光通信接收发射系统的光电信号进行分析,并使用最大后验概率(MAP)方法确定判决阈值。将对数正态分布作为湍流信道上光强闪烁模型,建立了系统误码率与湍流强度、光源相干参数、激光发射器光功率等系统参数之间的定量关系。采用部分相干光作为信号光能降低光源相干度,有效抑制湍流效应。计算结果表明：在一定条件下,湍流强度改变0.5个量级系统误码率相差6-8个量级,并且最优源相干参数可以通过计算得到,其对应的部分相干光最有利于提高通信系统性能。     

简化振动模型下空间光通信系统误码率分析

在空间光通信系统中,由于卫星振动将对系统的误码率产生影响,在探讨振动对误码率影响问题时,应分析不同振动类型的影响问题.侧重分析了正弦振动,并分别对方波、三角波、锯齿波型振动进行了分析.结果表明,对于正弦振动,当振动持续时间为整周期时,误码率仅为振幅的函数,此时误码率随振幅的增加迅速上升,而与振动频率无关;当振动持续时间为非整周期时,误码率随时间的增加而起伏,误码率的改变越来越小,且趋于仅与振幅有关的常数.其它类型的振动也有类似的结果.     

Performance analysis and power allocation for decode‐and‐forward cooperative communications over Rician fading channel

This paper derives the asymptotic symbol error rate (SER) and outage probability of decode‐and‐forward (DF) cooperative communications over Rician fading channels. How to optimally allocate the total power is also addressed when the performance metric in terms of SER or outage probability is taken into consideration. Analysis reveals the insights that Rician factor has a great impact on the system performance as compared with the channel variance, and the relay–destination channel quality is of importance. In addition, the source–relay channel condition is irrelevant to the optimal power allocation design. Simulation and numerical evaluation substantiate the tightness of the asymptotic expressions in the high‐SNR regions and demonstrate the accuracy of our theoretical analysis.

Amplify‐and‐forward‐based cooperative jamming strategy with power allocation for secure communication

This paper deals with the use of jamming transmission for secure amplify‐and‐forward‐based relay networks with total power constraints. An approach that the source and the relay use some of their available power to transmit jamming signals in order to create interference at the eavesdropper is investigated. Assume that the relay and destination have an a priori knowledge of the jamming signals. A power allocation policy that defines how the available power is distributed between the message signal and that of the jamming signal is presented. The results show that the proposed approach can increase the secrecy level and that a positive secrecy rate can be achieved even when the eavesdropper may be near the source.
