Effects of channel estimation on multiuser virtual MIMO-OFDMA relay-based networks
In this paper, a practical multi-user cooperative transmission scheme denoted as Virtual Maximum Ratio
Transmission (VMRT) for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output - Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access
(MIMO-OFDMA) Relay-based networks is proposed and evaluated in the presence of a realistic channel estimation
algorithm. It is shown that this scheme is robust against channel estimation errors and offers diversity and array
gain keeping the complexity low, although the multi-user and multi-antenna channel estimation algorithm is simple
and efficient. Diversity gains larger than 4 can be easily obtained with reduced number of relays. Thus, this scheme
can be used to extend coverage or increase system throughput by using simple cooperative OFDMA-based relays
