Full-Duplex Relay with Jamming Protocol for Improving Physical-Layer Security

This paper proposes a jointly cooperative relay and jamming protocol based on full-duplex (FD) capable relay to increase the source-destination secrecy rate in the presence of different types of eavesdroppers. In this so called \textit{FD-Relay with jamming (FDJ)} protocol, the FD-Relay, first, simultaneously receives data and sends jamming to the eavesdropper, and, then, forwards the data, while the source jams the eavesdropper. Achievable secrecy rates of the proposed FDJ in presence of different eavesdropper types and self-interference (SI) are derived and compared with those of the traditional half-duplex (HD) relay. The adaptive power allocation for secrecy rate maximization in a multi-carrier scenario for both proposed FDJ and HD-Relay is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem and corresponding iterative solution algorithm is developed using the difference-of-two-concave-functions (DC) programming technique. The simulation results confirm that FDJ offers significant improvements in the secrecy rate over the HD-Relay.Comment: PIMRC 201

Energy harvesting based two-way full-duplex relaying network over a Rician fading environment: performance analysis

Full-duplex transmission is a promising technique to enhance the capacity of communication systems. In this paper, we propose and investigate the system performance of an energy harvesting based two-way full-duplex relaying network over a Rician fading environment. Firstly, we analyse and demonstrate the analytical expressions of the achievable throughput, outage probability, optimal time switching factor, and symbol error ratio of the proposed system. In the second step, the effect of various parameters of the system on its performance is presented and investigated. In the final step, the analytical results are also demonstrated by Monte Carlo simulation. The numerical results proved that the analytical results and the simulation results agreed with each other.Web of Science68112311

Power Efficient and Secure Full-Duplex Wireless Communication Systems

In this paper, we study resource allocation for a full-duplex (FD) radio base station serving multiple half-duplex (HD) downlink and uplink users simultaneously. The considered resource allocation algorithm design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem taking into account minimum required receive signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratios (SINRs) for downlink and uplink communication and maximum tolerable SINRs at potential eavesdroppers. The proposed optimization framework enables secure downlink and uplink communication via artificial noise generation in the downlink for interfering the potential eavesdroppers. We minimize the weighted sum of the total downlink and uplink transmit power by jointly optimizing the downlink beamformer, the artificial noise covariance matrix, and the uplink transmit power. We adopt a semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation approach to obtain a tractable solution for the considered problem. The tightness of the SDP relaxation is revealed by examining a sufficient condition for the global optimality of the solution. Simulation results demonstrate the excellent performance achieved by the proposed scheme and the significant transmit power savings enabled optimization of the artificial noise covariance matrix.Comment: 6 pages, invited paper, IEEE Conference on Communications and Network Security (CNS) 2015 in Florence, Italy, on September 30, 201

Multi-Objective Optimization for Power Efficient Full-Duplex Wireless Communication Systems

In this paper, we investigate power efficient resource allocation algorithm design for multiuser wireless communication systems employing a full-duplex (FD) radio base station for serving multiple half-duplex (HD) downlink and uplink users simultaneously. We propose a multi-objective optimization framework for achieving two conflicting yet desirable system design objectives, i.e., total downlink transmit power minimization and total uplink transmit power minimization, while guaranteeing the quality-of-service of all users. To this end, the weighted Tchebycheff method is adopted to formulate a multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP). Although the considered MOOP is non-convex, we solve it optimally by semidefinite programming relaxation. Simulation results not only unveil the trade-off between the total downlink and the total uplink transmit power, but also confirm that the proposed FD system provides substantial power savings over traditional HD systems.Comment: Accepted for presentation at the IEEE Globecom 2015, San Diego, CA, USA, Dec. 201

Optimal Joint Power and Subcarrier Allocation for MC-NOMA Systems

In this paper, we investigate the resource allocation algorithm design for multicarrier non-orthogonal multiple access (MC-NOMA) systems. The proposed algorithm is obtained from the solution of a non-convex optimization problem for the maximization of the weighted system throughput. We employ monotonic optimization to develop the optimal joint power and subcarrier allocation policy. The optimal resource allocation policy serves as a performance benchmark due to its high complexity. Furthermore, to strike a balance between computational complexity and optimality, a suboptimal scheme with low computational complexity is proposed. Our simulation results reveal that the suboptimal algorithm achieves a close-to-optimal performance and MC-NOMA employing the proposed resource allocation algorithm provides a substantial system throughput improvement compared to conventional multicarrier orthogonal multiple access (MC-OMA).Comment: Submitted to Globecom 201

Resource Allocation for Outdoor-to-Indoor Multicarrier Transmission with Shared UE-side Distributed Antenna Systems

In this paper, we study the resource allocation algorithm design for downlink multicarrier transmission with a shared user equipment (UE)-side distributed antenna system (SUDAS) which utilizes both licensed and unlicensed frequency bands for improving the system throughput. The joint UE selection and transceiver processing matrix design is formulated as a non-convex optimization problem for the maximization of the end-to-end system throughput (bits/s). In order to obtain a tractable resource allocation algorithm, we first show that the optimal transmitter precoding and receiver post-processing matrices jointly diagonalize the end-to-end communication channel. Subsequently, the optimization problem is converted to a scalar optimization problem for multiple parallel channels, which is solved by using an asymptotically optimal iterative algorithm. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed resource allocation algorithm for the SUDAS achieves an excellent system performance and provides a spatial multiplexing gain for single-antenna UEs.Comment: accepted for publication at the IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC) Spring, Glasgow, Scotland, UK, May 201

Cross-Layer Optimization of Fast Video Delivery in Cache-Enabled Relaying Networks

This paper investigates the cross-layer optimization of fast video delivery and caching for minimization of the overall video delivery time in a two-hop relaying network. The half-duplex relay nodes are equipped with both a cache and a buffer which facilitate joint scheduling of fetching and delivery to exploit the channel diversity for improving the overall delivery performance. The fast delivery control is formulated as a two-stage functional non-convex optimization problem. By exploiting the underlying convex and quasi-convex structures, the problem can be solved exactly and efficiently by the developed algorithm. Simulation results show that significant caching and buffering gains can be achieved with the proposed framework, which translates into a reduction of the overall video delivery time. Besides, a trade-off between caching and buffering gains is unveiled.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures; accepted for presentation at IEEE Globecom, San Diego, CA, Dec. 201

Delay aware optimal resource allocation in MU MIMO-OFDM using enhanced spider monkey optimization

In multiple users MIMO- OFDM system allocates the available resources to the optimal users is a difficult task. Hence the scheduling and resource allocation become the major problem in the wireless network mainly in case of multiple input and multiple output method that has to be made efficient. There is various method introduced to give an optimal solution to the problem yet it has many drawbacks. So we propose this paper to provide an efficient solution for resource allocation in terms of delay and also added some more features such as high throughout, energy efficient and fairness. To make optimal resource allocation we introduce optimization algorithm named spider monkey with an enhancement which provides the efficient solution. In this optimization process includes the scheduling and resource allocation, the SNR values, channel state information (CSI) from the base station. To make more efficient finally we perform enhanced spider - monkey algorithm hence the resource allocation is performed based on QoS requirements. Thus the simulation results in our paper show high efficiency when compared with other schedulers and techniques
