본 논문에서는 클러스터 기반 다중 홉 무선 네트워크에서 중계기 협력 ARQ 를 이용한 기회적 중계 기법을 제안한다. 클러스터 간 통신 시 성능을 열악하게 만들 수 있는 채널 페이딩 효과를 줄이기 위하여 각 클러스터 간 통신에 중계기를 이용한 협력 통신을 적용한다. 또한 다중 홉 통신에서는 중간 홉에서 오류가 발생할 경우 전송 도중 정보를 잃게 되는 전송 실패의 가능성이 존재한다. 따라서 전송 실패의 가능성을 줄이기 위하여 중계기로부터 재전송을 받을 수 있는 중계기 협력 ARQ 기법을 적용한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 기법에 대한 전송 실패 확률을 분석한다. 그리고 모의 실험에서는 제안한 기법이 ARQ 를 사용하지 않은 기법과 성능 비교하여 신뢰도 측면에서 더 좋은 성능을 보임을 확인한다.

In this paper, we propose antenna and relay selection system by considering channel environment between nodes. Each node has multiple antennas in each hop. And, we analyze the performance of proposed system. A General MIMO system receives signals through multiple channels and obtains diversity gain. But MIMO system causes performance degradation due to poor received signals. The proposed system consider transmitters-relays channels, relays-receivers channels and select a best channel. This channel selection prevents performance degradation and increase total system's performance. Therefore, we must select best antennas and a best relay, simultaneously.

The benefits of infrastructure support are shown by analyzing a throughput scaling law of an erasure network in which multiple relay stations (RSs) are regularly placed. Based on suitably modeling erasure probabilities under the assumed network, we show our achievable network throughput in the hybrid erasure network. More specifically, we use two types of physical models, a exponential decay model and a polynomial decay model. Then, we analyze our achievable throughput using two existing schemes including multi-hop transmissions with and without help of RSs. Our result indicates that for both physical models, the derived throughput scaling law depends on the number of nodes and the number of RSs.

본 논문에서는 폐회로 다중 안테나 송수신 (closed-loop multiple-input multiple-output) 기법을 사용하는 적응형 협동 다중 홉 중계 시스템을 제안한다. 중계기와 기지국 사이의 이동성이 낮기 때문에, 폐회로 다중 안테나 송수신 기법은 개회로 다중 안테나 송수신 기법보다 높은 다이버시티 이득을 얻을 수 있다. 이 때, 한 개 이상의 중계 터미널들은 기지국으로 전송을 공유하고 프리코딩 가중치벡터를 피드백하기 위해 하나의 협동 그룹에 포함되어야 한다. 피드백 비트의 증가로 인한 전송량 감소를 최소화 하기 위해 코드북 기반의 최대비 전송 기법을 사용하여 비트백 비트수를 제한한다. 기지국은 협동 중계 그룹 중에서 채널 상태가 가장 좋은 중계기를 선택하고, 프리코딩을 위한 인덱스 값을 중계기에 피드백한다. 이러한 중계 시스템을 위해 피드백 형태와 선택 프로토콜 시나리오를 제안하고, 모의실험을 통해 중계기 선택에 따른 성능을 확인한다.

In this paper, we evaluate the system throughput and the method of optimal wireless resource allocation for the access zone (AZ) and relay zone (RZ) in downlink when the cell coverage is extended using the non-transparent Relay Station (RS) in a 2-hop cellular relay system based on IEEE802.16j, which uses the OFDMA-TDD structure. For the analyses, we first introduce the MAC (Media Access Control) frame structure in the non-transparent mode, then we investigate the interfering elements in both AZ and RZ for the network devices such as the Mobile Station (MS) and RS. Through computer simulation, we analyze the cell coverage extension and system throughput in terms of the distance between Base Station (BS) and RS, then we present the amount of the optimal allocation of wireless resource for the AZ and RZ in downlink using our results.

The transmitted signal from a source is transmitted to a destination through wireless channels. But if the mobile destination is out of the coverage of the source or exists in the shady side of the coverage, the destination can not receiver the signal from the source and they can not maintain communication. In order to overcome these problems, we adopt relays. A system employing relays is a multi-hop relay system. In the multi-hop relay system, coverages of each relay that is used for different systems can overlap each other in some place. When there is a destination in this place, interference occurs at the destination. In this paper, we study on the efficient co-channel interference (CCI) cancellation algorithm. In the proposed strategy, CCI is mitigated by zero forcing (ZF) or minimum mean square error (MMSE) receivers. Moreover, successive interference cancellation (SIC) with optimal ordering algorithm is applied for rejecting CCI efficiently. And we analyzed and simulated the proposed system performance in Rayleigh fading channel. In order to justify the benefit of the proposed strategy, the overall system performance is illustrated in terms of bit error probability.

The nearest-neighbor multihop routing with/without infrastructure support is known to achieve the optimal capacity scaling in a large packet-erasure network in which multiple wireless nodes and relay stations are regularly placed and packets are erased with a certain probability. In this paper, a throughput scaling law is shown for an infrastructure-supported erasure network where wireless nodes are randomly distributed, which is a more feasible scenario. We use an exponential decay model to suitably model an erasure probability. To achieve high throughput in hybrid random erasure networks, the multihop routing via highway using the percolation theory is proposed and the corresponding throughput scaling is derived. As a main result, the proposed percolation highway based routing scheme achieves the same throughput scaling as the nearest-neighbor multihop case in hybrid regular erasure networks. That is, it is shown that no performance loss occurs even when nodes are randomly distributed.

The cellular system in the next generation decreases the range of transmission of a signal as well as increases the rate of transmission adapting the method of multi-hop relaying with the relay. However, the fact of decreasing the range of transmission with the method of multi-hop relaying means increasing interferential amount in the outer cell; therefore, the deployment of the relay can affect to the function of the cellular system. In this thesis, the deployment of the relay is determined for the maximum rate of transmission, based on the transmission power of the relay and the variation of interferential amount. The condition to determine the deployment of the relay is analyzed with the mathematical model; in addition, its performance is verified through the result of a simulation. Based on the analysis of this thesis, the established deployment and transmission power of the relay to minimize the average outage probability exist. Furthermore, the relay contributes to enlargement of capacity of cells, decreasing the average outage probability in the situation of less severe interference between cells with reuse of frequency. However, the relay should be restrained in use in the situation of severe interference between cells due to the fact that the outage probability of inter-cells can be increased.
