Node Selection Techniques in Spectrum Sharing Cooperative Cognitive Networks / TÃcnicas de seleÃÃo de nÃs em redes cooperativas cognitivas com compartilhamento espectralFrancisco Rafael Vasconcelos GuimarÃes 05 August 2013 (has links)
In this dissertation, the performance of cooperative cognitive systems with spectrum sharing is investigated. A low-complexity and high performance node selection strategy is proposed for two different of cooperative cognitive
systems models. In the first model, the secondary network is composed by one source node that communicates with one among L destinations through a direct link and also assisted by one among N AF or DF relays nodes. The selected secondary destination employs a selection combining technique for choosing the best link (direct or dual-hop link) from the secondary source. Considering an underlay spectrum sharing approach, the secondary communication is performed taking into account an interference constraint, where the overall transmit power is limited by the interference at the primary receiver as well as by the maximum transmission power available at the respective nodes. An asymptotic analysis is carried out, revealing that the diversity order of the considered system is not affected by the interference, and equals to L + N. In the second model, by its turn, the secondary network is composed by one source, N AF or DF relays, and one destination. However, it is assumed the presence of M primary receivers. A relay selection strategy is proposed with the aim of maximing the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio and, at the same time, to satisfy the interference constraints imposed by these primary receivers. After the relay selection procedure is performed, the secondary destination chooses the best path (direct link or relaying link) by employing a selection combining scheme. An asymptotic analysis is carried out, revealing that the system diversity order equals to N + 1, and showing that it is not affected neither by the number of primary receivers nor by the interference threshold. A close-form expression and an approximation for the outage probability is derived for the DF and AF protocols, respectively. / Nesta dissertaÃÃo, o desempenho de sistemas cooperativos cognitivos com compartilhamento espectral à investigado. Uma estratÃgia de seleÃÃo de nÃs de baixa complexidade e alto desempenho à proposta para dois modelos distintos de redes cooperativas cognitivas. No primeiro modelo, a rede secundÃria à composta por um nà fonte que comunica-se com um dentre L nÃs destinos atravÃs de um link direto e atravÃs de um dentre
N nÃs relays decodifica-e-encaminha (DF) ou amplifica-e-encaminha (AF). O nà destino secundÃrio selecionado emprega uma tÃcnica de combinaÃÃo por seleÃÃo para selecionar o melhor link (direto ou auxiliar) a partir da fonte
secundÃria. Considerando um ambiente com compartilhamento espectral, tem-se que a comunicaÃÃo secundÃria à realizada levando em consideraÃÃo uma restriÃÃo de interferÃncia, na qual a potÃncia de transmissÃo à governada pela interferÃncia no receptor primÃrio bem como pela mÃxima potÃncia de
transmissÃo dos respectivos nÃs secundÃrios. Uma anÃlise assintÃtica à realizada, revelando que a ordem de diversidade do sistema nÃo à afetada pela interferÃncia, sendo igual a L + N. Jà no segundo modelo, a rede secundÃria à composta por uma fonte, N relays DF ou AF e um nà destino, no entanto
assume-se a presenÃa de M receptores primÃrios. A seleÃÃo do relay deve satisfazer as restriÃÃes de interferÃncia impostas por estes Ãltimos. ApÃs a seleÃÃo de relay ser realizada, o nà destino seleciona o melhor caminho (link direto ou link via relay) proveniente da fonte utilizando um combinador por seleÃÃo. Uma anÃlise assintÃtica à realizada, revelando que a ordem de
diversidade do esquema proposto iguala a N + 1, o que mostra que a mesma nÃo à afetada nem pelo nÃmero de receptores primÃrios nem pelo limiar de interferÃncia. Uma expressÃo em forma fechada para a probabilidade de outage à obtida para ambos protocolos cooperativos. SimulaÃÃes Monte Carlo
sÃo apresentadas com o intuito de validar as anÃlises propostas.

Distributed space-time block coding in cooperative relay networks with application in cognitive radioAlotaibi, Faisal T. January 2012 (has links)
Spatial diversity is an effective technique to combat the effects of severe fading in wireless environments. Recently, cooperative communications has emerged as an attractive communications paradigm that can introduce a new form of spatial diversity which is known as cooperative diversity, that can enhance system reliability without sacrificing the scarce bandwidth resource or consuming more transmit power. It enables single-antenna terminals in a wireless relay network to share their antennas to form a virtual antenna array on the basis of their distributed locations. As such, the same diversity gains as in multi-input multi-output systems can be achieved without requiring multiple-antenna terminals. In this thesis, a new approach to cooperative communications via distributed extended orthogonal space-time block coding (D-EO-STBC) based on limited partial feedback is proposed for cooperative relay networks with three and four relay nodes and then generalized for an arbitrary number of relay nodes. This scheme can achieve full cooperative diversity and full transmission rate in addition to array gain, and it has certain properties that make it alluring for practical systems such as orthogonality, flexibility, low computational complexity and decoding delay, and high robustness to node failure. Versions of the closed-loop D-EO-STBC scheme based on cooperative orthogonal frequency division multiplexing type transmission are also proposed for both flat and frequency-selective fading channels which can overcome imperfect synchronization in the network. As such, this proposed technique can effectively cope with the effects of fading and timing errors. Moreover, to increase the end-to-end data rate, this scheme is extended for two-way relay networks through a three-time slot framework. On the other hand, to substantially reduce the feedback channel overhead, limited feedback approaches based on parameter quantization are proposed. In particular, an optimal one-bit partial feedback approach is proposed for the generalized D-O-STBC scheme to maximize the array gain. To further enhance the end-to-end bit error rate performance of the cooperative relay system, a relay selection scheme based on D-EO-STBC is then proposed. Finally, to highlight the utility of the proposed D-EO-STBC scheme, an application to cognitive radio is studied.
