In this paper, we discuss a proposed two hop relay network with PB/MC-CDMA(partial block MC-CDMA) technique. The main advantages of PB/MC-CDMA system are the increased cell capacity and the high quality of performances. In the system, we employ relay scheme to focus on the coverage reduction and hotspot problem, hotspot is a location where a cluster of users are blocked or dropped for the reason of insufficient frequency resources. Frequency resource allocation scheme is put forward in a three cells system according to each problem. The simulation result shows the performance of the two hop transmission is better than the direct transmission and the proposed network can support much more users to relief hotspot effect compared to the conventional one.

In this paper, we have investigated the performance of energy efficiency (EE) for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), which recently emerged and advanced to preserve speed as well as safe transportation expansion via a cooperative IRS-relay network. To improve the EE, the relay model has been integrated with an IRS block consisting of a number of passive reflective elements. We analyze the ITS in terms of EE, and achievable rate, with different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values under Nakagami-m fading channel conditions that help the system to implement in a practical scenario. From the numerical results it is noticed that the EE for the only relay, IRS, and proposed cooperative relay-IRS-aided network at SNR value of 100 dBm is 30, 17, and 48 bits/joule respectively. In addition, we compare the impact of multi-IRS with the proposed cooperative IRS-relay and conventional relay-supported ITS. Simulation results show that both the proposed cooperative IRS-relay-aided ITS network and multi-IRS-aided network outperform the relay-assisted ITS with the increase in SNR.

Downlink multi-user non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) relay systems, that are wirelessly powered by harvesting energy from radio frequency, are taken into consideration.

The close-form outage probability expressions of proposed system over Rayleigh fading channels are derived and the analytical analysis is verified by computer simulations.

Wireless relaying in cellular networks has attracted considerable attention because of its capability of extending coverage and improving transmission reliability. The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) had standardized the relaying functionality in Release 10. In Release 13, the concept of relaying has been evolved to combine it with device-to-device communications for extending network coverage further. In this paper, a state-of-the-art 3GPP relay technology called the UE-to-Network relay that provides a novel approach of extending network coverage will be introduced briefly.

A simple relay selection scheme is proposed for analog network coding using differential modulation (ANC-DM). We propose a relay selection scheme based solely on the received signal power in which their own information is canceled out at each source node. The proposed power-based relay selection scheme is further applied to analog network coding using double-differential modulation (ANC-DDM), which is suitable for channels with carrier offset. Simulation results show that our proposed simple power-based criterion for relay selection in ANC-DM system has little loss compared to the optimal relay selection scheme using ideal BER.

Aiming at minimizing the total transmit power of relay nodes in the multiple peer-to-peer relay network in the presence of channel estimation error, a relay beamforming method based on Lorentz positive matrix is proposed. Firstly, assuming the channel state information of the second hop in the relay network is uncertain and the signal to noise ratios of the destination nodes are given, the expression of total relay nodes transmit power minimization optimization problem is deduced. Secondly, some real valued variables are defined and the concept of Lorentz cone is used to transform the optimization problem into a real valued problem. Finally, using the equivalent linear matrix inequality description of Lorentz positive matrices, the relay transmit power minimization problem is transformed into a real valued convex optimization problem. The proposed method overcomes the problem existing in the conventional robust relay beamforming methods based on semi definite relaxation technique, which sometimes yield solution matrix of with a rank greater than 1. Simulation results show that in the case of different relay nodes and channel error coefficients, the proposed method yields minimum relay transmit power in line with the results of the robust relay beamforming method based on semi definite relaxation technique, which validates the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, a multicast network in the presence of an untrusted relay is investigated. A three-phase AF-based cooperative jamming with power allocation is proposed to enhance the system secrecy rate. Based on time division based cooperative multicast (TDCM) protocol, the source uses part of its available power to broadcast pre-defined jamming signals in order to create interference at the untrusted relay, while the relay amplifies the linearly combined two received signals and then re-transmits it to the destination. Optimum power allocation policy involving the allocation between the information and jamming signals at the source and between two combined signal factors at the relay to maximize the achievable worse secrecy rate or sum-rate are derived and analyzed. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate our analytical results and reveal that compared with the two benchmarks schemes, the proposed scheme can obtain significantly higher positive secrecy rate for the same transmit power budget, especially in the case of maximizing secrecy sum-rate.

A power allocation scheme for the secondary user when the primary user employs the full duplex relay (FDR) is proposed in cognitive radio system. When the FDR is deployed in primary system, the primary relay and receiver suffers the interference from the secondary transmitter in order to share the spectrum of the primary user. Therefore, the power allocation scheme to satisfy the interference constraint is needed for the spectrum sharing. Thus, we propose a new power allocation scheme to satisfy the quality of service (QoS) of he primary user. Since the proposed power allocation scheme does not need the nstantaneous channel state information (CSI), the proposed scheme not only has feedback burden, but also can be robust the outdated CSI environment.

In this paper, we propose novel two-way relaying scheme in which number of two users transmit the signal to number of two destination. The scheme is difference with conventional multi-hop two-way relay scheme in which number of two users exchange the each signal. In the conventional scheme, each user have to perform back-propagating self-interference method to remove the own signal from received signal. It occurred to increase the complexity for signal processing at the user. To overcome the problem, we apply the Pre-cancellation which can reduce the process of back-propagating self-interference to our proposal network Simulation result show that proposal scheme outperform the convention multi-hop two-way relay scheme. Also we analysis the trad-off between performance and complexity accordance with using Pre-cancellation method.

Recently, network coding has been actively studied to increase the spectral efficiency of two-way relay wireless channels such as cellular systems as well as broadcasting systems. In this paper, we derive the average transmission capacity and the outage probability of a network coding system, which utilizes two-way data transmission via the best relay rather than multiple relays. Since the data unbalance between the forward and the reverse link in two-way communication systems exists, we include the asymmetric link as well as the symmetric link in the analysis. It is noticed that the space diversity gain increases as the increase of the number of relays. Also we obtain 11.4 dB signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gain with 9 relays compared to that with single relay in symmetrical link at the given conditions. In asymmetrical links, we denotes that the outage probability is more sensitive to the number of relays rather than data unbalance between the links.

Satellite communication is a communication method using a satellite as a repeater communication on the air and have a communication range is wide and is possible to transmit high-speed data, so Satellite communication has been highlighted as the next generation communication. However, because the distance between the ground and the satellite is far away, there is a disadvantage that propagation delay time is very long and packet is damaged. Therefore, this study was applied to Link Relay H-ARQ system in order to complement the damage to the packet. Furthermore, we propose the Modified Link Relay H-ARQ scheme is a new scheme to supplementation the delay time. By applying the Markov channel for implementing a channel of satellite communications, the results of analyzing the performance, when applying the Link Relay HARQ scheme, BER and PER performance was improved, when applying the Modified Link Relay H-ARQ scheme, Throughput performance was confirmed improvement.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has limited power and bandwidth. In order to high data rate and high speed communication systems are required. Cooperative communication system can help to decrease power consumption through spatial diversity. In cooperative transmission, one partner node assists one sensor node to transmit their data to destination. Instead of using M partners for M sensor nodes, we propose 1 partner for M sensor nodes. And we proposed relay selection scheme base on ARQ. Proposed protocol offers higher diversity order as conventional one with much less bandwidth and power. The destination will consider the one packets received from the best relay to reduce the complexity of the system. We verified BER performance for the proposed protocol through Monte-Carlo simulation over Rayleigh fading plus AWGN.
