Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design and analysis of various distributed space time block coding schemes for asynchronous cooperative relay networks is considered in this thesis. Rayleigh frequency flat fading channels are assumed to model the links in the networks, and interference suppression techniques together with an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing type transmission approach are employed to mitigate the synchronization errors at the destination node induced by the different delays through the relay nodes. Closed-loop space time block coding is first considered in the context of decode-and-forward (regenerative) networks. In particular, quasi orthogonal and extended orthogonal coding techniques are employed for transmission from four relay nodes and parallel interference cancellation detection is exploited to mitigate synchronization errors. Availability of a direct link between the source and destination nodes is studied, and a new Alamouti space time block coding technique with parallel interference cancellation detection which does not require such a direct link connection and employs two relay nodes is proposed. Outer coding is then added to gain further improvement in end-to-end performance and amplify-and-forward (non regenerative) type networks together with distributed space time coding are considered to reduce relay node complexity. Novel detection schemes are then proposed for decode-and-forward networks with closed-loop extended orthogonal coding which reduce the computational complexity of the parallel interference cancellation. Both sub-optimum and near-optimum detectors are presented for relay nodes with single or dual antennas. End-to-end bit error rate simulations confirm the potential of the approaches and their ability to mitigate synchronization errors. A relay selection approach is also formulated which maximizes spatial diversity gain and attains robustness to timing errors. Finally, a new closed-loop distributed extended orthogonal space time block coding solution for amplify-and-forward type networks which minimizes the number of feedback bits by using a cyclic rotation phase is presented. This approach utilizes an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing type transmission structure with a cyclic prefix to mitigate synchronization errors. End-to-end bit error performance evaluations verify the efficacy of the scheme and its success in overcoming synchronization errors.

This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space- Time Block Coding (STBC) are used to improve the transmission reliably and spectral efficiency of MIMO systems. The cooperative communication techniques can avoid the difficulties of implementing actual antennas array by converting the single-input single-output (SISO) system into a virtual multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. When STBC applied to cooperative diversity the system termed as Distributed Space Time Block Code (D-STBC). Most of the existing research assumes perfect synchronization among cooperative users in D-STBC. Unfortunately, perfect synchronization is almost impossible to be achieved. Therefore, most of the designed space-time codes are no longer valid. There are different research efforts to overcome this problem; most of which has high decoding complexity. In this research, two low decoding complexity schemes for imperfect synchronized D-STBC have been proposed. The first scheme is based on the principle of parallel interference cancellation (PIC), whereas the other is based on successive interference cancellation (SIC). These approaches have been proved to be a very effective in suppressing the impact of imperfect synchronization.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, space-time block codes originally developed for multiple antenna systems are extended to cooperative multi-hop networks. The designs are applicable to any wireless network setting especially cellular, adhoc and sensor networks where space limitations preclude the use of multiple antennas. The thesis first investigates the design of distributed orthogonal and quasi-orthogonal space time block codes in cooperative networks with single and multiple antennas at the destination. Numerical and simulation results show that by employing multiple receive antennas the diversity performance of the network is further improved at the expense of slight modification of the detection scheme. The thesis then focuses on designing distributed space time block codes for cooperative networks in which the source node participates in cooperation. Based on this, a source-assisting strategy is proposed for distributed orthogonal and quasi-orthogonal space time block codes. Numerical and simulation results show that the source-assisting strategy exhibits improved diversity performance compared to the conventional distributed orthogonal and quasi-orthogonal designs. Motivated by the problem of channel state information acquisition in practical wireless network environments, the design of differential distributed space time block codes is investigated. Specifically, a co-efficient vector-based differential encoding and decoding scheme is proposed for cooperative networks. The thesis then explores the concatenation of differential strategies with several distributed space time block coding schemes namely; the Alamouti code, square-real orthogonal codes, complex-orthogonal codes, and quasiorthogonal codes, using cooperative networks with different number of relay nodes. In order to cater for high data rate transmission in non-coherent cooperative networks, differential distributed quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes which are capable of achieving full code-rate and full diversity are proposed. Simulation results demonstrate that the differential distributed quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes outperform existing distributed space time block coding schemes in terms of code rate and bit-error-rate performance. A multidifferential distributed quasi-orthogonal space-time block coding scheme is also proposed to exploit the additional diversity path provided by the source-destination link. A major challenge is how to construct full rate codes for non-coherent cooperative broadband networks with more than two relay nodes while exploiting the achievable spatial and frequency diversity. In this thesis, full rate quasi-orthogonal codes are designed for noncoherent cooperative broadband networks where channel state information is unavailable. From this, a generalized differential distributed quasi-orthogonal space-frequency coding scheme is proposed for cooperative broadband networks. The proposed scheme is able to achieve full rate and full spatial and frequency diversity in cooperative networks with any number of relays. Through pairwise error probability analysis we show that the diversity gain of the proposed scheme can be improved by appropriate code construction and sub-carrier allocation. Based on this, sufficient conditions are derived for the proposed code structure at the source node and relay nodes to achieve full spatial and frequency diversity. In order to exploit the additional diversity paths provided by the source-destination link, a novel multidifferential distributed quasi-orthogonal space-frequency coding scheme is proposed. The overall objective of the new scheme is to improve the quality of the detected signal at the destination with negligible increase in the computational complexity of the detector. Finally, a differential distributed quasi-orthogonal space-time-frequency coding scheme is proposed to cater for high data rate transmission and improve the performance of noncoherent cooperative broadband networks operating in highly mobile environments. The approach is to integrate the concept of distributed space-time-frequency coding with differential modulation, and employ rotated constellation quasi-orthogonal codes. From this, we design a scheme which is able to address the problem of performance degradation in highly selective fading environments while guaranteeing non-coherent signal recovery and full code rate in cooperative broadband networks. The coding scheme employed in this thesis relaxes the assumption of constant channel variation in the temporal and frequency dimensions over long symbol periods, thus performance degradation is reduced in frequencyselective and time-selective fading environments. Simulation results illustrate the performance of the proposed differential distributed quasi-orthogonal space-time-frequency coding scheme under different channel conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space-time coding (STC) is a promising technique to achieve transmit diversity in Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems. Recently, space-time coding in a distributed fashion (DSTC) for cooperative relay networks attracts a lot of research interests. The design of space-time coding for cooperative relay networks has some new challenges which are different from the design of space-time coding for MIMO systems. The synchronization issue is one of the most important problems in the design of distributed space-time coding for cooperative communication systems since the cooperative systems are asynchronous in nature, e.g., there may exist timing errors and multiple frequency offsets in the cooperative systems. In this dissertation, we will discuss and study several designs of space-time coding for cooperative systems with different system models and in different asynchronous scenarios. In the first topic, we attempt to design very simple space-time coding schemes for cooperative systems with timing errors in Amplify-and-Forward (AF) mode. One of the major purposes is to make the relay nodes as simple as possible so that the relay nodes only need to implement very simple operations with a very low complexity. Another major purpose is to achieve full diversity and fast Maximum-Likelihood (ML) decoding at the receiver despite the existence of the timing errors. Except for the timing errors, the problem of multiple frequency offsets is another kind of asynchronous error which should be solved as well. In the second topic, we investigate the scenario that the timing errors and the multiple frequency offsets are existed simultaneously in the Decode-and-Forward (DF) cooperative systems. We adopt OFDM to combat the timing errors and propose an intercarrier interference (ICI) Self-Cancellation scheme to suppress the ICI caused by multiple frequency offsets. In the third topic, we consider the physical layer security issue in cooperative systems with timing errors. In order to avoid illegal interception of the eavesdropper in a cooperative system, we propose a distributed differential encoding/decoding scheme combined with deliberate signal randomization to achieve Low Probability of Interception (LPI) as well as to obtain full diversity regardless of the timing errors.
