Diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) is an efficient tool to measure the performance of multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) systems and cooperative systems. Recently, cooperative multicast system with wireless network coding stretched tremendous interesting due to that it can drastically enhance the throughput of the wireless networks. It is desirable to apply DMT to the performance analysis on the multicast system with wireless network coding. In this paper, DMT is performed at the three proposed wireless network coding protocols, i.e., non-regenerative network coding (NRNC), regenerative complex field network coding (RCNC) and regenerative Galois field network coding (RGNC). The DMT analysis shows that under the same system performance, i.e., the same diversity gain, all the three network coding protocols outperform the traditional transmission scheme without network coding in terms of multiplexing gain. Our DMT analysis also exhibits the trends of the three network coding protocols' performance when multiplexing gain is changing from the lower region to the higher region. Monte-Carlo simulations verify the prediction of DMT.

Employing multiple drones as a swarm to complete missions can sharply improve the working efficiency and expand the scope of investigation. Remote UAV swarms utilize satellites as relays to forward investigation information. The increasing amount of data demands higher transmission rate and complex field network coding (CFNC) is deemed as an effective solution for data return. CFNC applied to UAV swarms enhances transmission efficiency by occupying only two time slots, which is less than other network coding schemes. However, conventional CFNC applied to UAVs is combined with constant coding and modulation scheme and results in a waste of spectrum resource when the channel conditions are better. In order to avoid the waste of power resources of the relay satellite and further improve spectral efficiency, a CFNC transmission scheme with MPSK modulation is proposed in this paper. For the proposed scheme, the satellite relay no longer directly forwards information, but transmits information after processing according to the current channel state. The proposed transmission scheme not only maintains throughput advantage of CFNC, but also enhances spectral efficiency, which obtains higher throughput performance. The symbol error probability (SEP) and throughput results corroborated by Monte Carlo simulation show that the proposed transmission scheme improves spectral efficiency in multiples compared to the conventional CFNC schemes. In addition, the proposed transmission scheme enhances the throughput performance for different topology structures while keeping SEP below a certain value.

본 논문에서는 릴레이 기반 무선 통신 환경에서 기존의 CFNC (Complex Field Network Coding) 기법 적용 시 발생하는 문제점들을 개선하는 방안을 제시한다. CFNC 기법은 간단한 복소 덧셈 및 뺄셈 연산을 통해 상 하향 링크 신호 교환에 요구되는 시간 구간을 최소화함으로써 전송 효율을 극대화하는 장점을 가진다. 그러나, 기존의 CFNC 기법은 릴레이에서의 ML (Maximum Likelihood) 판정 과정에서 큰 폭의 성능 열화가 발생하는 단점이 있다. 또한, CFNC 기법 적용 시 릴레이의 수신 신호에 다중 주파수 오프셋이 발생함에 따라 릴레이의 미세 주파수 오프셋 추정 성능이 열화 되는 한편, 주파수 오프셋 보상 이후에도 잔류 주파수 오프셋으로 인한 성능 열화가 발생하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 상향 링크의 송신 다이버시티를 이용함으로써 정확도를 개선 가능한 새로운 ML 판정 기법 및 다중 주파수 오프셋 환경에서 적용 가능한 새로운 미세 주파수 오프셋 추정, 보상 기법을 제안한다. 다양한 환경에서의 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통해 제안된 기법들이 CFNC 기법 적용 시 발생하는 문제점들을 효과적으로 개선 가능함을 입증한다.
