Abstract

Cooperative diversity system can be applied to an ad-hoc network for reduction of the power consumption, for expansion of the communication range, and for improving the system performance. In a selection relay cooperative diversity system which selects the maximal SNR(Signal-to-noise ratio) relay for transmitting the source information, the selected strong relay transmits continuously under slow fading channel, consequently it reduces the network lifetime. To overcome this defect, recently the uniform power relay selection has been studied to expand the network life time. We apply the uniform power relay selection to a DOT(Double opportunistic transmit) cooperative system that select the transmit relays, of which the SNR of the transmit relays exceed both of the source-relay and the relay-destination threshold. And the performance of the system is analytically derived. The performance comparisons are made among SC(Selection combining), MRC(Maximal ratio combining), and uniform power relay selection of the cooperative diversity system. We noticed that the performance of the uniform power relay selection is inferior to that of others. It is interpreted that the uniform transmit opportunity to the selected relays for extension of the network lifetime degrades the performance.

애드혹 네트워크에서는 협동 다이버시티를 적용하여 네트워크의 전력소모를 줄이고, 통달거리의 확장 및 시스템의 성능을 향상시키고 있다. 그러나 가장 큰 신호 대 잡음비(SNR, Signal-to-noise ratio)을 갖는 릴레이를 선택하여 송신하는 선택 릴레이 협동 다이버시티 방식은 느린 페이딩 채널에서 특정 릴레이가 계속 송신하므로 네트워크의 생존시간을 줄이게 된다. 그러므로 최근에 네트워크의 생존 시간을 늘이기 위하여 균일전력 릴레이 선택방식이 연구되었다. 본 논문에서는 소스-릴레이 및 릴레이-목적지간의 수신 신호 대 잡음비가 일정수준 이상이 되는 릴레이를 선택하여 송신할 수 있는 하는 이중 기회전송 협동 다이버시티(DOT, Double opportunistic cooperative diversity) 시스템에 균일전력 릴레이 선택방식을 적용하고 시스템의 성능을 유도하였다. 유도한 결과는 선택결합(SC, Selection combining) 방식과 최대비 합성결합(MRC, Maximal ratio combining) 방식과 비교하였다. 균일전력 릴레이 방식을 사용하였을 때 다른 방식에 비해서 시스템의 성능저하가 있었는데, 이는 네트워크의 생존 시간을 늘이기 위해서 릴레이에 균일한 송신기회를 주었기 때문으로 해석되었다.
