Performance Analysis of Adaptive Physical Layer Network Coding for Wireless Two-way Relaying
The analysis of modulation schemes for the physical layer network-coded two
way relaying scenario is presented which employs two phases: Multiple access
(MA) phase and Broadcast (BC) phase. It was shown by Koike-Akino et. al. that
adaptively changing the network coding map used at the relay according to the
channel conditions greatly reduces the impact of multiple access interference
which occurs at the relay during the MA phase. Depending on the signal set used
at the end nodes, deep fades occur for a finite number of channel fade states
referred as the singular fade states. The singular fade states fall into the
following two classes: The ones which are caused due to channel outage and
whose harmful effect cannot be mitigated by adaptive network coding are
referred as the \textit{non-removable singular fade states}. The ones which
occur due to the choice of the signal set and whose harmful effects can be
removed by a proper choice of the adaptive network coding map are referred as
the \textit{removable} singular fade states. In this paper, we derive an upper
bound on the average end-to-end Symbol Error Rate (SER), with and without
adaptive network coding at the relay, for a Rician fading scenario. It is shown
that without adaptive network coding, at high Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), the
contribution to the end-to-end SER comes from the following error events which
fall as : the error events associated with the removable
singular fade states, the error events associated with the non-removable
singular fade states and the error event during the BC phase. In contrast, for
the adaptive network coding scheme, the error events associated with the
removable singular fade states contributing to the average end-to-end SER fall
as and as a result the adaptive network coding scheme
provides a coding gain over the case when adaptive network coding is not used.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure
Space-Time Coded Spatial Modulated Physical Layer Network Coding for Two-Way Relaying
Using the spatial modulation approach, where only one transmit antenna is
active at a time, we propose two transmission schemes for two-way relay channel
using physical layer network coding with space time coding using Coordinate
Interleaved Orthogonal Designs (CIOD's). It is shown that using two
uncorrelated transmit antennas at the nodes, but using only one RF transmit
chain and space-time coding across these antennas can give a better performance
without using any extra resources and without increasing the hardware
implementation cost and complexity. In the first transmission scheme, two
antennas are used only at the relay, Adaptive Network Coding (ANC) is employed
at the relay and the relay transmits a CIOD Space Time Block Code (STBC). This
gives a better performance compared to an existing ANC scheme for two-way relay
channel which uses one antenna each at all the three nodes. It is shown that
for this scheme at high SNR the average end-to-end symbol error probability
(SEP) is upper bounded by twice the SEP of a point-to-point fading channel. In
the second transmission scheme, two transmit antennas are used at all the three
nodes, CIOD STBC's are transmitted in multiple access and broadcast phases.
This scheme provides a diversity order of two for the average end-to-end SEP
with an increased decoding complexity of for an arbitrary
signal set and for square QAM signal set.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
Pairwise Check Decoding for LDPC Coded Two-Way Relay Block Fading Channels
Partial decoding has the potential to achieve a larger capacity region than
full decoding in two-way relay (TWR) channels. Existing partial decoding
realizations are however designed for Gaussian channels and with a static
physical layer network coding (PLNC). In this paper, we propose a new solution
for joint network coding and channel decoding at the relay, called pairwise
check decoding (PCD), for low-density parity-check (LDPC) coded TWR system over
block fading channels. The main idea is to form a check relationship table
(check-relation-tab) for the superimposed LDPC coded packet pair in the
multiple access (MA) phase in conjunction with an adaptive PLNC mapping in the
broadcast (BC) phase. Using PCD, we then present a partial decoding method,
two-stage closest-neighbor clustering with PCD (TS-CNC-PCD), with the aim of
minimizing the worst pairwise error probability. Moreover, we propose the
minimum correlation optimization (MCO) for selecting the better
check-relation-tabs. Simulation results confirm that the proposed TS-CNC-PCD
offers a sizable gain over the conventional XOR with belief propagation (BP) in
fading channels.Comment: to appear in IEEE Trans. on Communications, 201
The Impact of Channel Feedback on Opportunistic Relay Selection for Hybrid-ARQ in Wireless Networks
This paper presents a decentralized relay selection protocol for a dense
wireless network and describes channel feedback strategies that improve its
performance. The proposed selection protocol supports hybrid
automatic-repeat-request transmission where relays forward parity information
to the destination in the event of a decoding error. Channel feedback is
employed for refining the relay selection process and for selecting an
appropriate transmission mode in a proposed adaptive modulation transmission
framework. An approximation of the throughput of the proposed adaptive
modulation strategy is presented, and the dependence of the throughput on
system parameters such as the relay contention probability and the adaptive
modulation switching point is illustrated via maximization of this
approximation. Simulations show that the throughput of the proposed selection
strategy is comparable to that yielded by a centralized selection approach that
relies on geographic information.Comment: 30 pages, 9 figures, submitted to the IEEE Transactions on Vehicular

Regenerative and Adaptive schemes Based on Network Coding for Wireless Relay Network
Recent technological advances in wireless communications offer new
opportunities and challenges for relay network.To enhance system performance,
Demodulate-Network Coding (Dm-NC) scheme has been examined at relay node; it
works directly to De-map the received signals and after that forward the
mixture to the destination. Simulation analysis has been proven that the
performance of Dm-NC has superiority over analog-NC. In addition, the
Quantize-Decode-NC scheme (QDF-NC) has been introduced. The presented
simulation results clearly provide that the QDF-NC perform better than
analog-NC. The toggle between analogNC and QDF-NC is simulated in order to
investigate delay and power consumption reduction at relay node.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figures, International Journal of Computer Networks &

Dispensing with channel estimation: differentially modulated cooperative wireless communications
As a benefit of bypassing the potentially excessive complexity and yet inaccurate channel estimation, differentially encoded modulation in conjunction with low-complexity noncoherent detection constitutes a viable candidate for user-cooperative systems, where estimating all the links by the relays is unrealistic. In order to stimulate further research on differentially modulated cooperative systems, a number of fundamental challenges encountered in their practical implementations are addressed, including the time-variant-channel-induced performance erosion, flexible cooperative protocol designs, resource allocation as well as its high-spectral-efficiency transceiver design. Our investigations demonstrate the quantitative benefits of cooperative wireless networks both from a pure capacity perspective as well as from a practical system design perspective
Transmit Antenna Selection for Physical-Layer Network Coding Based on Euclidean Distance
Physical-layer network coding (PNC) is now well-known as a potential
candidate for delay-sensitive and spectrally efficient communication
applications, especially in two-way relay channels (TWRCs). In this paper, we
present the error performance analysis of a multiple-input single-output (MISO)
fixed network coding (FNC) system with two different transmit antenna selection
(TAS) schemes. For the first scheme, where the antenna selection is performed
based on the strongest channel, we derive a tight closed-form upper bound on
the average symbol error rate (SER) with -ary modulation and show that the
system achieves a diversity order of 1 for . Next, we propose a
Euclidean distance (ED) based antenna selection scheme which outperforms the
first scheme in terms of error performance and is shown to achieve a diversity
order lower bounded by the minimum of the number of antennas at the two users.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figures, Globecom 2017 (Wireless Communications
