In this paper, the outage probability of efficient partial relay selection(EPRS) using only one-hop channel information in multi-hop systems is analyzed in Rayleigh fading channels. In particular, we derive an exact and closed-form expression for the outage probability of decode-and-forward relaying based EPRS. In order to prove the usefulness of EPRS in multi-hop systems, we also analyze the correlation between the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) and the SNR for each hop at an arbitrary relaying path. Furthermore, through numerical investigation, we compare the outage performances for EPRS and the best relay selection using all channel information.

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.

최근 통신시스템에서 다중 홉(multi-hop)을 이용하여 셀 용량 증대, 셀 영역 확장 등을 달성하려는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 그러나 대부분 하나의 송신기와 하나의 수신기가 존재하는 환경을 가정하여, 다수의 수신기가 존재하는 방송통신 시스템에 직접적으로 적용하기에는 한계를 갖는다. 이에 본 논문에서는 다수의 수신기가 존재하는 방송통신 시스템에서의 시스템 성능향상을 위한 중계경로 선택 알고리듬을 연구한다. 최적경로 선택 알고리듬을 제안하며, 최적경로 선택 알고리듬과 같은 성능을 보이면서 낮은 복잡도를 갖는 알고리듬을 제안한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 제안된 다중 홉 중계 경로 성택 알고리듬의 성능을 알아보도록 한다.

본 논문은 에너지 하베스팅을 하는 다수의 중계기를 사용하여 다중 홉 통신을 하는 시스템을 다룬다. 중계기는 파워 비콘에서 보내는 무선 에너지 신호를 이용하여 신호 전송에 필요한 에너지를 얻는다. 신호 전송은 여러 프레임을 통해 이루어 지는데, K 개의 프레임 동안 에너지를 하베스팅하고, 다음 프레임에 다중 홉으로 정보 신호 전송을 한다. 이 때 수신기에서의 불능 확률을 1) K 가 변화할 때, 2) 다중 홉 수 가 변화할 때로 나누어 시뮬레이션 한다.

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.

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 propose novel two-way relaying scheme in which number of two users transmit the signal to number of two destination. The scheme is difference with conventional multi-hop two-way relay scheme in which number of two users exchange the each signal. In the conventional scheme, each user have to perform back-propagating self-interference method to remove the own signal from received signal. It occurred to increase the complexity for signal processing at the user. To overcome the problem, we apply the Pre-cancellation which can reduce the process of back-propagating self-interference to our proposal network Simulation result show that proposal scheme outperform the convention multi-hop two-way relay scheme. Also we analysis the trad-off between performance and complexity accordance with using Pre-cancellation method.

In this paper, we investigate decode-and-forward (DF) relaying systems with a direct link between the source and the destination node. The objective of this paper is to determine the better relaying strategy between 3-hop DF relaying and dual-hop DF relaying with the best relay selection. Assuming Rayleigh fading channels, we present closed-form outage probability of the 3-hop relaying and the dual-hop relaying, respectively, and compare the performances by numerical investigation. Numerical results show that if the channel is poor, the outage performance of the 3-hop relaying is better than the dual-hop relaying.

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.
