Reed Solomon Coded Cooperation Scheme In Mobile Communication Networks And Application

Coded cooperative communication technique utilizes single antenna mobiles in a multi-user environment that share their antennas and incorporates channel coding in order to achieve transmit diversity. This thesis presents a new coded cooperation scheme based on Reed Solomon (RS) codes. The RS codes are very effective in correcting random symbol errors and random burst errors over wireless fading channels. The new coded cooperation system splits the data into two frames, using a mask vector arithmetic operation. The new scheme offers significant diversity gain improvement as compared to the renowned coded cooperation scheme that utilizes the Rate-Compatible Punctured Convolutional Code (RCPC). This work also derives the mathematical outage probability expressions for new RS coded cooperation scheme that proves its capacity to achieve full diversity gain

Wearable metamaterial dual-polarized high isolation UWB MIMO Vivaldi antenna for 5G and satellite communications

A low-profile Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna showing dual polarization, low mutual coupling, and acceptable diversity gain is presented by this paper. The antenna introduces the requirements of fifth generation (5G) and the satellite communications. A horizontally (4.8–31 GHz) and vertically polarized (7.6–37 GHz) modified antipodal Vivaldi antennas are simulated, fabricated, and integrated, and then their characteristics are examined. An ultra-wideband (UWB) at working bandwidths of 3.7–3.85 GHz and 5–40 GHz are achieved. Low mutual coupling of less than −22 dB is achieved after loading the antenna with cross-curves, staircase meander line, and integration of the metamaterial elements. The antennas are designed on a denim textile substrate with = 1.4 and h= 0.5 mm. A conductive textile called ShieldIt is utilized as conductor with conductivity of 1.8 × 10⁴. After optimizing the proposed UWB-MIMO antenna’s characteristics, it is increased to four elements positioned at the four corners of a denim textile substrate to be employed as a UWB-MIMO antenna for handset communications, 5G, Ka and Ku band, and satellite communications (X-band). The proposed eight port UWB-MIMO antenna has a maximum gain of 10.7 dBi, 98% radiation efficiency, less than 0.01 ECC, and acceptable diversity gain. Afterwards, the eight-ports antenna performance is examined on a simulated real voxel hand and chest. Then, it is evaluated and compared on physical hand and chest of body. Evidently, the simulated and measured results show good agreement between them. The proposed UWB-MIMO antenna offers a compact and flexible design, which is suitably wearable for 5G and satellite communications applications
