Es werden verschiedene Stetigkeitskonzepte, die in der statistischen Theorie und Methodik eine Rolle spielen, erläutert.

Das vorliegende Skript ist aus einer Lehrveranstaltung hervorgegangen, die von mir mehrere Jahre an der Fakultät Wirtschaftswissenschaften der TU Dresden gehalten wurde. Diese Lehrveranstaltung hatte erst die Bezeichnung "Monetäre Risikomaße" und später "Risikomaße". Mehrere frühere Fassungen dieses Skripts, das häufig überarbeitet und erweitert wurde, trugen den Namen Monetäre Risikomaße (Auflagen 1 bis 7). Die einzelnen Kapitel enthalten in der Regel die drei abschließenden Abschnitte "Übungsaufgaben", "Beweise" und "Ergänzung und Vertiefung" mit Material zum jeweiligen Kapitel, das nicht in der Vorlesung vorgetragen wurde.

Today’s communication systems are in need of spectrally efficient and high throughput techniques more than ever because of high data rate applications and the scarcity and expense of bandwidth. To cope with increased data rate demands, more base stations are needed which is not cost and energy efficient in cellular networks. It has been shown that wireless relay networks can provide higher network throughput and increase power efficiency with low complexity and cost. Furthermore, network resources can be utilized more efficiently by using network coding in relay networks. A wireless relay network in which multiple nodes exchange information with the help of relay node(s) is called a multi-way relay channel (MWRC). MWRCs are expected to be an integral part of next generation wireless standards. The main focus of this dissertation is the investigation of transmission schemes in an MWRC to improve the throughput and error performance. An MWRC with full data exchange is assumed in which a half-duplex relay station (RS) is the enabler of communication. One of the challenges with signal demodulation in MWRCs is the existence of ambiguous points in the received constellation. The first part of this dissertation investigates a transmission scheme for full data exchange in MWRC that benefits from these points and improves its throughput by 33% compared to traditional relaying. Then an MWRC is considered where a RS assists multiple nodes to exchange messages. A different approach is taken to avoid ambiguous points in the superposition of user symbols at the relay. This can be achieved by employing complex field network coding (CFNC) which results in full data exchange in two communication phases. CFNC may lead to small Euclidean distances between constellation points, resulting in poor error performance. To improve this performance, the optimal user precoding values are derived such that the power efficiency of the relay constellation is highest when channel state information is available at the users. The error performance of each user is then analyzed and compared with other relaying schemes. Finally, focusing on the uplink of multi-way relay systems, the performance of an MWRC is studied in which users can employ arbitrary modulation schemes and the links between the users and the relay have different gains, e.g. Rayleigh fading. Analytical expressions for the exact average pairwise error probability of these MWRCs are derived. The probability density function (PDF) and the mean of the minimum Euclidean distance of the relay constellation are closely approximated, and a tight upper bound on the symbol error probability is developed. / Graduate

Η εκπόνηση της συγκεκριμένης Μεταπτυχιακής Εργασίας, εξετάζει, καταρχήν, την έννοια της πιθανότητας και τις βασικές ιδιότητές της, όπως την τυχαία μεταβλητή και τη συνάρτηση κατανομής. Παράλληλα όμως, παρουσιάζει στοιχεία βασικών διακριτών και συνεχών κατανομών, όπως της κανονικής, της ομοιόμορφης, της Poisson, και άλλων κατανομών της γραμμικής στατιστικής. Στη συνέχεια, αναφέρεται στις βασικές έννοιες της περιγραφικής στατιστικής, όπως οργάνωση και γραφική αναπαράσταση στατιστικών δεδομένων, ομαδοποίηση παρατηρήσεων, ιστόγραμμα συχνοτήτων, καθώς και περιγραφικά μέτρα γραμμικών δεδομένων. Κυρίως, όμως, η παρούσα μελέτη αποτελεί μία γενική επισκόπηση των στατιστικών μεθόδων παρουσίασης και ανάλυσης των περιοδικών δεδομένων. Με τον όρο "περιοδικά δεδομένα", εννοούμε τυχαίες διευθύνσεις και κατευθύνσεις προσανατολισμού. Η παρουσίασης των τυχαίων γωνιών, των γραφικών αναπαραστάσεων των περιοδικών δεδομένων καθώς και των περιγραφικών μέτρων - μέτρα θέσεως, διασποράς, λοξότητας, κυρτώσεως - θα μας οδηγήσουν σε μία καλύτερη προσέγγιση, κατανόηση των περιοδικών κατανομών. Επιπλέον, θα παρουσιαστούν αναλυτικά οι βασικές περιοδικές κατανομές, ομοιόμορφη και Von Mises κατανομή. Όμως, θα εξεταστούν και άλλες κατανομές μονοκόρυφες ή πολυκόρυφες, όπως οι περιελιγμένες κατανομές , η συνημίτονο και η καρδιοειδής κατανομή, οι λοξές κατανομές κ.ά. Τέλος, η εργασία θα αναφερθεί σε μία οικογένεια συμμετρικών περιοδικών κατανομών που προτάθηκε από τον κύριο Παπακωνσταντίνου και αποτελεί επέκταση της καρδιοειδούς κατανομής,σύμφωνα με εργασία των επιστημόνων Toshihiro Abe,Arthur Pewsey,Kunio Shimizu, παρέχοντας σημαντικά πλεονεκτήματα σε σχέση με άλλες οικογένειες κατανομών. / The preparation of this thesis examines, in principle,the concept of probability and its basic properties, such as the random variable and distribution function and presents data of basic discrete and continuous distributions, including normal, uniform, the Poisson, and other distributions of linear statistics. Then it refers to the basic concepts of descriptive statistics, such as the organization and the graphic representation of statistical data, grouping observations Frequency histogram as well as descriptive measures of linear data. Mostly, though, this study represents an overview of statistic methods of presentation and analysis of periodic data. By the term "periodic data" we mean random addresses and directions orientation. The presentation of random angles, graphic representations of periodic data and descriptive measures - measures of location, dispersion, skewness and kurtosis - will lead us to a better approach and understanding of periodic distributions. Furthermore, we present in detail the basic periodic distributions, the uniform and the Von Mises distribution. But other unimodal and multimodal distributions will be examined such as wrapped distributions, the cosine and cardioid distribution, skewed distributions, etc. Finally, this thesis will mention a family of symmetric periodic distributions proposed by Mr. Papakonstantinou and an extension of the cardioid distribution, according to the paper published by the scientists Toshihiro Abe,Arthur Pewsey and Kunio Shimizu, where significant advantages are provided over other families of distributions.

The thesis presents methods and criteria for creation and optimization of design of computer experiments. Using the core of a program Freet the optimized designs were created by combination of these methods and criteria. Then, the suitability of the designs for statistical analysis of the tasks vith input random variables was assessed by comparison of the obtained results of six selected functions and the exact (analytically obtained) solutions. Basic theory, definitions of the evaluated functions, description of the setting of optimization and the discussion of the obtained results, including recommendations related to identified weaknesses of certain designs, are presented. The thesis also contains a description of an application that was created to display the results.
