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
Impact of Relay Location of STANC Bi-Directional Transmission for Future Autonomous Internet of Things Applications
Wireless communication using existing coding models poses several challenges for RF signals due to multipath scattering, rapid fluctuations in signal strength and path loss effect. Unlike existing works, this study presents a novel coding technique based on Analogue Network Coding (ANC) in conjunction with Space Time Block Coding (STBC), termed as Space Time Analogue Network Coding (STANC). STANC achieves the transmitting diversity (virtual MIMO) and supports big data networks under low transmitting power conditions. Furthermore, this study evaluates the impact of relay location on smart devices network performance in increasing interfering and scattering environments. The performance of STANC is analyzed for Internet of Things (IoT) applications in terms of Symbol Error Rate (SER) and the outage probability that are calculated using analytical derivation of expression for Moment Generating Function (MGF). In addition, the ergodic capacity is analyzed using mean and second moment. These expressions enable effective evaluation of the performance and capacity under different relay location scenario. Different fading models are used to evaluate the effect of multipath scattering and strong signal reflection. Under such unfavourable environments, the performance of STANC outperforms the conventional methods such as physical layer network coding (PNC) and ANC adopted for two way transmission
Source and Physical-Layer Network Coding for Correlated Two-Way Relaying
In this paper, we study a half-duplex two-way relay channel (TWRC) with
correlated sources exchanging bidirectional information. In the case, when both
sources have the knowledge of correlation statistics, a source compression with
physical-layer network coding (SCPNC) scheme is proposed to perform the
distributed compression at each source node. When only the relay has the
knowledge of correlation statistics, we propose a relay compression with
physical-layer network coding (RCPNC) scheme to compress the bidirectional
messages at the relay. The closed-form block error rate (BLER) expressions of
both schemes are derived and verified through simulations. It is shown that the
proposed schemes achieve considerable improvements in both error performance
and throughput compared with the conventional non-compression scheme in
correlated two-way relay networks (CTWRNs).Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures. IET Communications, 201
Queue-Architecture and Stability Analysis in Cooperative Relay Networks
An abstraction of the physical layer coding using bit pipes that are coupled
through data-rates is insufficient to capture notions such as node cooperation
in cooperative relay networks. Consequently, network-stability analyses based
on such abstractions are valid for non-cooperative schemes alone and
meaningless for cooperative schemes. Motivated from this, this paper develops a
framework that brings the information-theoretic coding scheme together with
network-stability analysis. This framework does not constrain the system to any
particular achievable scheme, i.e., the relays can use any cooperative coding
strategy of its choice, be it amplify/compress/quantize or any
alter-and-forward scheme. The paper focuses on the scenario when coherence
duration is of the same order of the packet/codeword duration, the channel
distribution is unknown and the fading state is only known causally. The main
contributions of this paper are two-fold: first, it develops a low-complexity
queue-architecture to enable stable operation of cooperative relay networks,
and, second, it establishes the throughput optimality of a simple network
algorithm that utilizes this queue-architecture.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figur
Physical-layer Network Coding: A Random Coding Error Exponent Perspective
In this work, we derive the random coding error exponent for the uplink phase
of a two-way relay system where physical layer network coding (PNC) is
employed. The error exponent is derived for the practical (yet sub-optimum) XOR
channel decoding setting. We show that the random coding error exponent under
optimum (i.e., maximum likelihood) PNC channel decoding can be achieved even
under the sub-optimal XOR channel decoding. The derived achievability bounds
provide us with valuable insight and can be used as a benchmark for the
performance of practical channel-coded PNC systems employing low complexity
decoders when finite-length codewords are used.Comment: Submitted to IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory
