transmission. We have been witnessed the breakthrough of wireless communication
era in many manifolds, such as speech, coverage area, and stability. However,
frequency bands, the resource to convey information wirelessly, are limited and expensive
to be granted usage licenses.
Attaining the goals of ubiquitous wireless devices will require the future wireless
networks stepping forward to overcome the scarcity and expensiveness of wireless
frequency bands. Thus, the future wireless networks should evolve to utilize wireless
frequencies more efficiently, such as cognitive relay network where non-license
users are able to transmit data in the same frequency band that officially allocated to
primary users. Subsequently, the transmit power of users in a cognitive network is
limited and the performance is vulnerable to impairments of transceiver hardware.
This dissertation aims to analyze the performance of the cognitive relay network
under the impact of transceiver hardware impairments. A case study of two-way
cognitive relay network is given for further investigate the impact of transceiver
hardware impairments on end-to-end outage performance and throughput. Furthermore,
we provide a new relaying scheme in order to lessen the impact of transceiver
hardware impairment and further boost the system performance. For the purposes,
this dissertation is organized into five (5) chapters.
Chapter 1: Introduction. In this chapter, multihop wireless networks and the performance
metrics are overviewed. In particular, the relay networks and cognitive relay
networks are presented. Moreover, the general model of the practical transceiver
hardware impairment is detailed for further analysis.
Chapter 2: The impact of transceiver hardware impairments on cognitive relay networks.
By using the general hardware impairment model for the received signal, the
closed forms of outage probability of the relay network with decode-and-forward
(DF) and amplify-and-forward (AF) under the impact of transceiver hardware imperfection
are derived. Based on these results, we provide further discussion on
transceiver hardware selection guideline.
Chapter 3: Case study: two-way cognitive relaying in energy harvesting wireless
sensor networks. A two-way relay wireless sensor network equipped with
RF energy harvesting node is introduced. This network is aimed to be implemented
in hazardous or remote areas where power supply for the relay node is
difficult to maintain. In this chapter, we consider four configurations of the network
with formed by combining two bidirectional relaying protocols and two wireless
power transfer policies. The detailed performance analysis of outage probability
and throughput of the case-study network with four configurations are presented.
Based on the analysis, we provide performance comparison between the four and
suggest the network configuration with the best performance.
Chapter 4: Soft information relaying protocol. The soft information relaying protocol
is proposed and analyzed. The analysis shows that this relaying protocol can
gradually reduce the impact of transceiver hardware impairment on cognitive relay
networks. Hence, soft relaying protocol is considered as a solution for cognitive
relay network with cost-effective wireless transceiver devices.
Chapter 5: Overall conclusion. An overall summary of the works presented in
the above is provided in this chapter. Moreover, the future related work is also
discussed.
The results in this dissertation acknowledge the impact of transceiver hardware impairment
by presenting the reduction of outage probability and throughput of the
cognitive relay network. It puts forward the consideration of including the impact
of transceiver hardware impairments on wireless network performance analysis, especially
for the cognitive networks of which the transmit power is limited.
Furthermore, a new relaying protocol, namely soft information relaying protocol,
is proposed as a solution to lessen the impact of transceiver hardware impairment.
The analysis shows that the impact of transceiver hardware impairment in cognitive
relay network is reduced in compared to conventional relaying schemes.
As a final point, we have provided a full picture of performance analysis for the
cognitive relay network under the impact of transceiver hardware imperfection and
the solution to reduce the performance loss by applying soft information relaying
scheme. This research would contribute to boost the development of cognitive relay
networks where frequency bands are used more efficiently
Secrecy performance of TAS/SC-based multi-hop harvest-to-transmit cognitive WSNs under joint constraint of interference and hardware imperfection
In this paper, we evaluate the secrecy performance of multi-hop cognitive wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In the secondary network, a source transmits its data to a destination via the multi-hop relaying model using the transmit antenna selection (TAS)/selection combining (SC) technique at each hop, in the presence of an eavesdropper who wants to receive the data illegally. The secondary transmitters, including the source and intermediate relays, have to harvest energy from radio-frequency signals of a power beacon for transmitting the source data. Moreover, their transmit power must be adjusted to satisfy the quality of service (QoS) of the primary network. Under the joint impact of hardware imperfection and interference constraint, expressions for the transmit power for the secondary transmitters are derived. We also derive exact and asymptotic expressions of secrecy outage probability (SOP) and probability of non-zero secrecy capacity (PNSC) for the proposed protocol over Rayleigh fading channel. The derivations are then verified by Monte Carlo simulations.Web of Science195art. no. 116
Power Switching Protocol for Two-way Relaying Network under Hardware Impairments
In this paper, we analyze the impact of hardware impairments at relay node and source node (i.e. imperfect nodes) on network performance by evaluating outage probability based on the effective signal to noise and distortion ratio (SNDR). Especially, we propose energy harvesting protocol at the relay and source nodes, namely, power switching imperfect relay (PSIR) and power switching imperfect source (PSIS). Aiming to determine the performance of energy constrained network, we first derive closed-form expressions of the outage probability and then the throughput can be maximized in delay-limited transmission mode. The simulation results provide practical insights into the impacts of hardware impairments and power switching factors of the energy harvesting protocol on the performance of energy harvesting enabled two-way relaying network
