Achievable Rate and Optimal Physical Layer Rate Allocation in Interference-Free Wireless Networks
We analyze the achievable rate in interference-free wireless networks with
physical layer fading channels and orthogonal multiple access. As a starting
point, the point-to-point channel is considered. We find the optimal physical
and network layer rate trade-off which maximizes the achievable overall rate
for both a fixed rate transmission scheme and an improved scheme based on
multiple virtual users and superposition coding. These initial results are
extended to the network setting, where, based on a cut-set formulation, the
achievable rate at each node and its upper bound are derived. We propose a
distributed optimization algorithm which allows to jointly determine the
maximum achievable rate, the optimal physical layer rates on each network link,
and an opportunistic back-pressure-type routing strategy on the network layer.
This inherently justifies the layered architecture in existing wireless
networks. Finally, we show that the proposed layered optimization approach can
achieve almost all of the ergodic network capacity in high SNR.Comment: 5 pages, to appear in Proc. IEEE ISIT, July 200
Fundamental Limits in MIMO Broadcast Channels
This paper studies the fundamental limits of MIMO broadcast channels from a high level, determining the sum-rate capacity of the system as a function of system paramaters, such as the number of transmit antennas, the number of users, the number of receive antennas, and the total transmit power. The crucial role of channel state information at the transmitter is emphasized, as well as the emergence of opportunistic transmission schemes. The effects of channel estimation errors, training, and spatial correlation are studied, as well as issues related to fairness, delay and differentiated rate scheduling
Multiuser Switched Diversity Scheduling Schemes
Multiuser switched-diversity scheduling schemes were recently proposed in
order to overcome the heavy feedback requirements of conventional opportunistic
scheduling schemes by applying a threshold-based, distributed, and ordered
scheduling mechanism. The main idea behind these schemes is that slight
reduction in the prospected multiuser diversity gains is an acceptable
trade-off for great savings in terms of required channel-state-information
feedback messages. In this work, we characterize the achievable rate region of
multiuser switched diversity systems and compare it with the rate region of
full feedback multiuser diversity systems. We propose also a novel proportional
fair multiuser switched-based scheduling scheme and we demonstrate that it can
be optimized using a practical and distributed method to obtain the feedback
thresholds. We finally demonstrate by numerical examples that
switched-diversity scheduling schemes operate within 0.3 bits/sec/Hz from the
ultimate network capacity of full feedback systems in Rayleigh fading
conditions.Comment: Accepted at IEEE Transactions on Communications, to appear 2012,

Performance enhancement solutions in wireless communication networks
In this dissertation thesis, we study the new relaying protocols for different wireless network systems. We analyze and evaluate an efficiency of the transmission in terms of the outage probability over Rayleigh fading channels by mathematical analyses. The theoretical analyses are verified by performing Monte Carlo simulations.
First, we study the cooperative relaying in the Two-Way Decode-and-Forward (DF) and multi-relay DF scheme for a secondary system to obtain spectrum access along with a primary system. In particular, we proposed the Two-Way DF scheme with Energy Harvesting, and the Two-Way DF Non-orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) scheme with digital network coding. Besides, we also investigate the wireless systems with multi-relay; the best relay selection is presented to optimize the effect of the proposed scheme. The transmission protocols of the proposed schemes EHAF (Energy Harvesting Amplify and Forward) and EHDF (Energy Harvesting Decode and Forward) are compared together in the same environment and in term of outage probability. Hence, with the obtained results, we conclude that the proposed schemes improve the performance of the wireless cooperative relaying systems, particularly their throughput.
Second, we focus on investigating the NOMA technology and proposing the optimal solutions (protocols) to advance the data rate and to ensure the Quality of Service (QoS) for the users in the next generation of wireless communications. In this thesis, we propose a Two-Way DF NOMA scheme (called a TWNOMA protocol) in which an intermediate relay helps two source nodes to communicate with each other. Simulation and analysis results show that the proposed protocol TWNOMA is improving the data rate when comparing with a conventional Two-Way scheme using digital network coding (DNC) (called a TWDNC protocol), Two-Way scheme without using DNC (called a TWNDNC protocol) and Two-Way scheme in amplify-and-forward(AF) relay systems (called a TWANC protocol).
Finally, we considered the combination of the NOMA and physical layer security (PLS) in the Underlay Cooperative Cognitive Network (UCCN). The best relay selection strategy is investigated, which uses the NOMA and considers the PLS to enhance the transmission efficiency and secrecy of the new generation wireless networks.V této dizertační práci je provedena studie nových přenosových protokolů pro různé bezdrátové síťové systémy. S využitím matematické analýzy jsme analyzovali a vyhodnotili efektivitu přenosu z hlediska pravděpodobnosti výpadku přes Rayleighův kanál. Teoretické analýzy jsou ověřeny provedenými simulacemi metodou Monte Carlo.
Nejprve došlo ke studii kooperativního přenosu ve dvoucestném dekóduj-a-předej (Two-Way Decode-and-Forward–TWDF) a vícecestném DF schématu s větším počtem přenosových uzlů pro sekundární systém, kdy takto byl získán přístup ke spektru spolu s primárním systémem. Konkrétně jsme navrhli dvoucestné DF schéma se získáváním energie a dvoucestné DF neortogonální schéma s mnohonásobným přístupem (Non-orthogonal Multiple Access–NOMA) s digitálním síťovým kódováním. Kromě toho rovněž zkoumáme bezdrátové systémy s větším počtem přenosových uzlů, kde je přítomen výběr nejlepšího přenosového uzlu pro optimalizaci efektivnosti navrženého schématu. Přenosové protokoly navržených schémat EHAF (Energy Harvesting Amplify and Forward) a EHDF(Energy Harvesting Decode and Forward) jsou společně porovnány v identickém prostředí z pohledu pravděpodobnosti výpadku. Následně, na základě získaných výsledků, jsme dospěli k závěru, že navržená schémata vylepšují výkonnost bezdrátových kooperativních systémů, konkrétně jejich propustnost.
Dále jsme se zaměřili na zkoumání NOMA technologie a navrhli optimální řešení (protokoly) pro urychlení datového přenosu a zajištění QoS v další generaci bezdrátových komunikací. V této práci jsme navrhli dvoucestné DF NOMA schéma (nazýváno jako TWNOMA protokol), ve kterém mezilehlý přenosový uzel napomáhá dvěma zdrojovým uzlům komunikovat mezi sebou. Výsledky simulace a analýzy ukazují, že navržený protokol TWNOMA vylepšuje dosaženou přenosovou rychlost v porovnání s konvenčním dvoucestným schématem používajícím DNC (TWDNC protokol), dvoucestným schématem bez použití DNC (TWNDNC protokol) a dvoucestným schématem v zesil-a-předej (amplify-and-forward) přenosových systémech (TWANC protokol).
Nakonec jsme zvážili využití kombinace NOMA a zabezpečení fyzické vrstvy (Physical Layer Security–PLS) v podpůrné kooperativní kognitivní síti (Underlay Cooperative Cognitive Network–UCCN). Zde je zde zkoumán výběr nejlepšího přenosového uzlu, který užívá NOMA a bere v úvahu PLS pro efektivnější přenos a zabezpečení nové generace bezdrátových sítí.440 - Katedra telekomunikační technikyvyhově
Maximizing Energy Efficiency in Multiple Access Channels by Exploiting Packet Dropping and Transmitter Buffering
Quality of service (QoS) for a network is characterized in terms of various
parameters specifying packet delay and loss tolerance requirements for the
application. The unpredictable nature of the wireless channel demands for
application of certain mechanisms to meet the QoS requirements. Traditionally,
medium access control (MAC) and network layers perform these tasks. However,
these mechanisms do not take (fading) channel conditions into account. In this
paper, we investigate the problem using cross layer techniques where
information flow and joint optimization of higher and physical layer is
permitted. We propose a scheduling scheme to optimize the energy consumption of
a multiuser multi-access system such that QoS constraints in terms of packet
loss are fulfilled while the system is able to maximize the advantages emerging
from multiuser diversity. Specifically, this work focuses on modeling and
analyzing the effects of packet buffering capabilities of the transmitter on
the system energy for a packet loss tolerant application. We discuss low
complexity schemes which show comparable performance to the proposed scheme.
The numerical evaluation reveals useful insights about the coupling effects of
different QoS parameters on the system energy consumption and validates our
analytical results.Comment: in IEEE trans. Wireless communications, 201
