In this paper, we propose a hybrid decode-amplify-forward incremental cooperative diversity protocol using SNR-based relay selection. In the proposed protocol, whenever destination unsuccessfully receives the source's signal, one of relays that exploit hybrid decode-amplify-forward technique is chosen to retransmit the signal. We derive approximate closed-form expressions of outage probability and average channel capacity. Monte-Carlo simulations are presented to verify the theoretical results and compare the performance of the proposed protocol with the direct transmission protocol and conventional incremental relaying protocols.

The deployment of an incremental hybrid decode-amplify and forward relaying scheme is a promising and superior solution for cellular networks to meet ever-growing network traffic demands. However, the selection of a suitable relaying protocol based on the signal-to-noise ratio threshold is important in realizing an improved quality of service. In this paper, an incremental hybrid relaying protocol is proposed using polar codes. The proposed protocol achieves a better performance than existing turbo codes in terms of capacity. Simulation results show that the polar codes through an incremental hybrid decode-amplify-and-forward relay can provide a 38% gain when ${\gamma}_{th(1)}$ and ${\gamma}_{th(2)}$ are optimal. Further, the channel capacity is improved to 17.5 b/s/Hz and 23 b/s/Hz for $2{\times}2$ MIMO and $4{\times}4$ MIMO systems, respectively. Monte Carlo simulations are carried out to achieve the optimal solution.

The outage probability (OP) performance of multiple-relay-based incremental hybrid decode-amplify-forward (IHDAF) relaying mobile-to-mobile (M2M) networks with transmit antenna selection (TAS) over N-Nakagami fading channels is investigated in this paper. The closed-form expressions for approximate OP of the optimal and suboptimal TAS schemes are derived. The power allocation problem is formulated for performance optimization. Then the OP performance under different conditions is evaluated through numerical simulations to verify the analysis. The simulation results showed that optimal TAS scheme has a better OP performance than suboptimal TAS scheme; the power-allocation parameter has an important influence on the OP performance.

통신 시스템에서 수신 성능을 향상시키는 방법으로 MIMO 기술이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 하지만 최근 소형화되어 가는 대부분의 무선 단말기는 사이즈, 비용, 하드웨어의 복잡성 등의 이유로 적용할 수 있는 안테나의 개수에 한계를 가진다. 이에 따라 개발된 협력통신은 단일 안테나를 가지는 다수의 단말기들이 가상의 MIMO 환경을 구현함으로써 다이버시티 이득을 얻을 수 있다. 하지만 협력통신은 다이버시티를 얻기 위해 스펙트럼 효율성을 저하시키며, 이를 극복할 수 있는 방법으로 증분 중계기법을 이용한다. 본 논문에서는 증분 중계기법을 이용하는 다양한 시스템 모델을 고려하며, 고려된 시스템 모델이 최적의 성능을 얻을 수 있는 중계기 위치를 연구한다.
