Diversity-Multiplexing Tradeoffs in MIMO Relay Channels
A multi-hop relay channel with multiple antenna terminals in a quasi-static
slow fading environment is considered. For both full-duplex and half-duplex
relays the fundamental diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) is analyzed. It is
shown that, while decode-and-forward (DF) relaying achieves the optimal DMT in
the full-duplex relay scenario, the dynamic decode-and-forward (DDF) protocol
is needed to achieve the optimal DMT if the relay is constrained to half-duplex
operation. For the latter case, static protocols are considered as well, and
the corresponding achievable DMT performance is characterized.Comment: To appear at IEEE Global Communications Conf. (Globecom), New

Multi-Antenna Assisted Virtual Full-Duplex Relaying with Reliability-Aware Iterative Decoding
In this paper, a multi-antenna assisted virtual full-duplex (FD) relaying
with reliability-aware iterative decoding at destination node is proposed to
improve system spectral efficiency and reliability. This scheme enables two
half-duplex relay nodes, mimicked as FD relaying, to alternatively serve as
transmitter and receiver to relay their decoded data signals regardless the
decoding errors, meanwhile, cancel the inter-relay interference with
QR-decomposition. Then, by deploying the reliability-aware iterative
detection/decoding process, destination node can efficiently mitigate
inter-frame interference and error propagation effect at the same time.
Simulation results show that, without extra cost of time delay and signalling
overhead, our proposed scheme outperforms the conventional selective
decode-and-forward (S-DF) relaying schemes, such as cyclic redundancy check
based S-DF relaying and threshold based S-DF relaying, by up to 8 dB in terms
of bit-error-rate.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, conference paper has been submitte
Energy-Efficient Cooperative Protocols for Full-Duplex Relay Channels
In this work, energy-efficient cooperative protocols are studied for
full-duplex relaying (FDR) with loopback interference. In these protocols,
relay assistance is only sought under certain conditions on the different link
outages to ensure effective cooperation. Recently, an energy-efficient
selective decode-and-forward protocol was proposed for FDR, and was shown to
outperform existing schemes in terms of outage. Here, we propose an incremental
selective decode-and-forward protocol that offers additional power savings,
while keeping the same outage performance. We compare the performance of the
two protocols in terms of the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio cumulative
distribution function via closed-form expressions. Finally, we corroborate our
theoretical results with simulation, and show the relative relay power savings
in comparison to non-selective cooperation in which the relay cooperates
regardless of channel conditions
Symbol-Level Selective Full-Duplex Relaying with Power and Location Optimization
In this paper, a symbol-level selective transmission for full-duplex (FD)
relaying networks is proposed to mitigate error propagation effects and improve
system spectral efficiency. The idea is to allow the FD relay node to predict
the correctly decoded symbols of each frame, based on the generalized square
deviation method, and discard the erroneously decoded symbols, resulting in
fewer errors being forwarded to the destination node. Using the capability for
simultaneous transmission and reception at the FD relay node, our proposed
strategy can improve the transmission efficiency without extra cost of
signalling overhead. In addition, targeting on the derived expression for
outage probability, we compare it with half-duplex (HD) relaying case, and
provide the transmission power and relay location optimization strategy to
further enhance system performance. The results show that our proposed scheme
outperforms the classic relaying protocols, such as cyclic redundancy check
based selective decode-and-forward (S-DF) relaying and threshold based S-DF
relaying in terms of outage probability and bit-error-rate. Moreover, the
performances with optimal power allocation is better than that with equal power
allocation, especially when the FD relay node encounters strong
self-interference and/or it is close to the destination node.Comment: 34 pages (single-column), 14 figures, 2 tables, accepted pape
Hybrid decode-amplify and forward protocol of FD EH relaying network: outage probability analysis
Nowadays, many research papers focus on the WPCN problem and how to improve its efficiency. In this research, we propose and investigate Hybrid Decode-Amplify and Forward Protocol (HDAF) of the Full-Duplex (FD) Energy Harvesting (EH) Relaying Network with the Time Switching (TS) protocol. In the beginning stage, we present the HDAF mode, which can be work like a Decode-and-Amplify (DF) or Amplify-and-Forward (AF) modes based on the best of its performance in the FD EH relaying network. Furthermore, the closed-form expression of the outage probability (OT) is analyzed and derived in connection with the primary system parameters. Besides, the comparison of the system performance in the AF, DF, and HDAF is proposed and investigated. Finally, all the results are convinced by the Monte Carlo simulation for all cases
Transmit Signal and Bandwidth Optimization in Multiple-Antenna Relay Channels
Transmit signal and bandwidth optimization is considered in multiple-antenna
relay channels. Assuming all terminals have channel state information, the
cut-set capacity upper bound and decode-and-forward rate under full-duplex
relaying are evaluated by formulating them as convex optimization problems. For
half-duplex relays, bandwidth allocation and transmit signals are optimized
jointly. Moreover, achievable rates based on the compress-and-forward
transmission strategy are presented using rate-distortion and Wyner-Ziv
compression schemes. It is observed that when the relay is close to the source,
decode-and-forward is almost optimal, whereas compress-and-forward achieves
good performance when the relay is close to the destination.Comment: 16 pages, 10 figure
