Underlay Cognitive Radio with Full or Partial Channel Quality Information
Underlay cognitive radios (UCRs) allow a secondary user to enter a primary
user's spectrum through intelligent utilization of multiuser channel quality
information (CQI) and sharing of codebook. The aim of this work is to study
two-user Gaussian UCR systems by assuming the full or partial knowledge of
multiuser CQI. Key contribution of this work is motivated by the fact that the
full knowledge of multiuser CQI is not always available. We first establish a
location-aided UCR model where the secondary user is assumed to have partial
CQI about the secondary-transmitter to primary-receiver link as well as full
CQI about the other links. Then, new UCR approaches are proposed and carefully
analyzed in terms of the secondary user's achievable rate, denoted by ,
the capacity penalty to primary user, denoted by , and capacity
outage probability. Numerical examples are provided to visually compare the
performance of UCRs with full knowledge of multiuser CQI and the proposed
approaches with partial knowledge of multiuser CQI.Comment: 29 Pages, 8 figure
Full Diversity Space-Time Block Codes with Low-Complexity Partial Interference Cancellation Group Decoding
Partial interference cancellation (PIC) group decoding proposed by Guo and
Xia is an attractive low-complexity alternative to the optimal processing for
multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communications. It can well deal
with the tradeoff among rate, diversity and complexity of space-time block
codes (STBC). In this paper, a systematic design of full-diversity STBC with
low-complexity PIC group decoding is proposed. The proposed code design is
featured as a group-orthogonal STBC by replacing every element of an Alamouti
code matrix with an elementary matrix composed of multiple diagonal layers of
coded symbols. With the PIC group decoding and a particular grouping scheme,
the proposed STBC can achieve full diversity, a rate of and a
low-complexity decoding for transmit antennas. Simulation results show that
the proposed codes can achieve the full diversity with PIC group decoding while
requiring half decoding complexity of the existing codes.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures
Opportunistic Relaying in Wireless Networks
Relay networks having source-to-destination pairs and half-duplex
relays, all operating in the same frequency band in the presence of block
fading, are analyzed. This setup has attracted significant attention and
several relaying protocols have been reported in the literature. However, most
of the proposed solutions require either centrally coordinated scheduling or
detailed channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter side. Here, an
opportunistic relaying scheme is proposed, which alleviates these limitations.
The scheme entails a two-hop communication protocol, in which sources
communicate with destinations only through half-duplex relays. The key idea is
to schedule at each hop only a subset of nodes that can benefit from
\emph{multiuser diversity}. To select the source and destination nodes for each
hop, it requires only CSI at receivers (relays for the first hop, and
destination nodes for the second hop) and an integer-value CSI feedback to the
transmitters. For the case when is large and is fixed, it is shown that
the proposed scheme achieves a system throughput of bits/s/Hz. In
contrast, the information-theoretic upper bound of bits/s/Hz
is achievable only with more demanding CSI assumptions and cooperation between
the relays. Furthermore, it is shown that, under the condition that the product
of block duration and system bandwidth scales faster than , the
achievable throughput of the proposed scheme scales as .
Notably, this is proven to be the optimal throughput scaling even if
centralized scheduling is allowed, thus proving the optimality of the proposed
scheme in the scaling law sense.Comment: 17 pages, 8 figures, To appear in IEEE Transactions on Information
