Power Allocation and Cooperative Diversity in Two-Way Non-Regenerative Cognitive Radio Networks
In this paper, we investigate the performance of a dual-hop block fading
cognitive radio network with underlay spectrum sharing over independent but not
necessarily identically distributed (i.n.i.d.) Nakagami- fading channels.
The primary network consists of a source and a destination. Depending on
whether the secondary network which consists of two source nodes have a single
relay for cooperation or multiple relays thereby employs opportunistic relay
selection for cooperation and whether the two source nodes suffer from the
primary users' (PU) interference, two cases are considered in this paper, which
are referred to as Scenario (a) and Scenario (b), respectively. For the
considered underlay spectrum sharing, the transmit power constraint of the
proposed system is adjusted by interference limit on the primary network and
the interference imposed by primary user (PU). The developed new analysis
obtains new analytical results for the outage capacity (OC) and average symbol
error probability (ASEP). In particular, for Scenario (a), tight lower bounds
on the OC and ASEP of the secondary network are derived in closed-form. In
addition, a closed from expression for the end-to-end OC of Scenario (a) is
achieved. With regards to Scenario (b), a tight lower bound on the OC of the
secondary network is derived in closed-form. All analytical results are
corroborated using Monte Carlo simulation method
A novel equivalent definition of modified Bessel functions for performance analysis of multi-hop wireless communication systems
A statistical model is derived for the equivalent signal-to-noise ratio of the Source-to-Relay-to-Destination (S-R-D) link for Amplify-and-Forward (AF) relaying systems that are subject to block Rayleigh-fading. The probability density function and the cumulated density function of the S-R-D link SNR involve modified Bessel functions of the second kind. Using fractional-calculus mathematics, a novel approach is introduced to rewrite those Bessel functions (and the statistical model of the S-R-D link SNR) in series form using simple elementary functions. Moreover, a statistical characterization of the total receive-SNR at the destination, corresponding to the S-R-D and the S-D link SNR, is provided for a more general relaying scenario in which the destination receives signals from both the relay and the source and processes them using maximum ratio combining (MRC). Using the novel statistical model for the total receive SNR at the destination, accurate and simple analytical expressions for the outage probability, the bit error probability, and the ergodic capacity are obtained. The analytical results presented in this paper provide a theoretical framework to analyze the performance of the AF cooperative systems with an MRC receiver
