In downlink of mobile communication systems, the feedback delay between channel estimation and actual transmission causes inaccuracy in channel-state-information (CSI) and this results in performance degradation. In order to overcome this phenomenon, channel prediction is inevitable. In this paper, an adaptive transmission scheme based on channel prediction is proposed and its performance is evaluated. From simulation results, it is shown that the performance degradation due to the feedback delay is successfully mitigated by using the proposed scheme.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive trellis-coded Multiple Quadrature Amplitude Modulation(ATCMQAM) applying MQAM as the modulation scheme in the conventional ATCMPSK (Adaptive trellis-Coded Multiple Phase Shift Keying) for slowly varying Rayleigh fading channels. The proposed system adaptively controls the coding rate combined with modulation level of pragmatic approach to trellis-coded modulation according to the instantaneous fading channel conditions, and employs MQAM as modulation scheme.Results by computer simulation show that the proposed adaptive model using MQAM can realize higher quality transmission with the improvement more than 0.5 ~ 1bit in average bit rate. And there is a coding gain of 2-5dB, depending on the high SNR value, compared with the conventional adaptive model employing MPSK.

In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid codebook design method which combines DFT matrix based codebook for Rayleigh fading and LOS codebook for direct path. Link-level performances employing hybrid codebook outperform the ones employing the conventional codebooks when K-factor of Rician distribution is 0.28 to 0.99. Moreover hybrid codebook shows good performances over not only Rayleigh channel but also high K's Rician channels.

In this paper, we propose a simple bidirectional transmission protocol using network coding and digital Fountain codes. In particular, in the proposed scheme, two sources use digital Fountain codes to transmit their message to each other with the help of relays. Then, relays use Fountain codes and network coding to forward the source messages to both sources. To evaluate performance of the proposed protocols, we present the average total throughput over Rayleigh fading channels via Various Monte-Carlo simulations. Results show that the proposed protocol outperforms the two-way relaying transmission protocol without using network coding technique at high SNR region.

In a conventional opportunistic transmit (COT) cooperative relaying system, only the relays that receive signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from the source and that exceed the threshold transmit to the destination. The COT system, however, only considers the SNR of the source-relay (S-R) path regardless that the SNR of the relay-destination (R-D) path is the opportunistic transmission condition. For that reason, it is not guaranteed that all the transmitted signals from relays exceed the threshold at the destination. Therefore we propose a double opportunistic transmit (DOT) cooperative relaying system - when both of the received SNR from a source and from a destination exceed the threshold, the relay transmits to the destination. It is shown that the proposed DOT system reduces power consumption by 6.9, 20.9, 32.4, and 41.4 % for K =3, 5, 7, and 9, respectively under the given condition of $P_{out}=1{\times}10^{-3}$ and $\overline{\gamma}_{SR}/\Gamma_{SR}$=30 dB, compared to the COT system. We noticed that the performance of the DOT system is superior to that of the COT system for the identical number of active transmit relays under the same condition of the normalized average SNR of $\overline{\gamma}_{RD}/\Gamma_{RD}$.

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, the effects of Intersymbol Interference(ISI) of Gaussian filtered minimum shift Keying (GMSK) with two-bit differential defection on the probability of error is analyzed theoretically in fast Rayleigh fading characterizing land mobile radio channels and a closed form for the probability of error is derived. Numerical results are presented for cased of interest, BT=0.25 to 0.4, taking fading rate $f_\rho$T as a parameter. It is shown that the probability of error taking the ISI of the only one adjacent bit into consideration is accurate enough to evaluate the performance of GMSK with two-bit differential detetion.

This paper presents a method for obtaining an exact average symbol error rate (ASER) of M-ary Phase Shift Keying (MPSK) for opportunistic amplify-and-forward (OAF) relay systems over Rayleigh fading channels. This is based on the relay selection probability when a relay is selected as the best one with respect to the received signal-to-noise ratio. We then derive the modified moment generating function (MGF) for OAF relay systems by taking the given relay selection probability into consideration. Based on the modified MGF, we derive the exact ASER which accurately explicates OAF relay system characteristics. Our results confirm that the derived ASER provides a tight upper bound for OAF relay systems.

This paper provides an analytic performance evaluation of the bit error rate (BER) of underlay decode-and-forward cognitive networks with best relay selection over Rayleigh multipath fading channels. A generalized BER expression valid for arbitrary operational parameters is firstly presented in the form of a single integral, which is then employed for determining the diversity order and coding gain for different best relay selection scenarios. Furthermore, a novel and highly accurate closed-form approximate BER expression is derived for the specific case where relays are located relatively close to each other. The presented results are rather convenient to handle both analytically and numerically, while they are shown to be in good agreement with results from respective computer simulations. In addition, it is shown that as in the case of conventional relaying networks, the behaviour of underlay relaying cognitive networks with best relay selection depends significantly on the number of involved relays.

In this paper, we propose and analyze a scheme for wireless channels, which is a combination of a type I hybrid-automatic repeat request (H-ARQ) scheme and a power ramping. The power ramping is considered for more reliable downlink data transmission, in which the transmission power is gradually changed from a small level to a large level when the number of retransmissions increases. The simulation results demonstrate that, when the power ramping step size is 0.5dB, the average throughput gain may be as high as 2% to 5% with properly selected parameters.
