Abstract

This paper considers a cooperative communication system with a single relay node, where two-layer superposition coding and successive decoding is employed to reduce the expected distortion of a Gaussian source delivered. For the system, we propose a relay scheme which forwards an appropriate relay signal at the relay node, based on the local decoding result of layers and the decoding result of layers at the destination node fed back to the relay node. In the scheme, the relay signal is designed not only by applying decode-and-forward but also by applying amplify-and-forward to reduce the outage probability in final decoding of each layer. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated numerically in terms of the expected distortion at various relay locations using outage probabilities derived. The results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional schemes in most cases of the relay location and the gain gets larger when the relay node is closer to the source node in particular.

본 논문은 가우시안 정보원을 전송할 때 평균 왜곡이 줄어들도록 두 레이어 (layer) 중첩 부호와 순차 복호를 적용한 단일 릴레이 노드 협력 통신 시스템을 고려한다. 이 시스템을 위해 제안하는 협력 전송 방식은 릴레이 노드가 자신의 레이어 복호결과와 피드백 정보인 목적 노드의 레이어 복호결과에 따라 알맞은 릴레이 신호를 구성하여 전송하는 것이다. 이 때 릴레이 신호는 복호-후 전달과 증폭-후-전달 기법을 혼합하여 설계함으로써 최종 레이어 복호 시의 아웃티지 확률을 줄이도록 한다. 제안 기법의 성능은 아웃티지 확률 분석 결과를 이용하여 다양한 릴레이 노드 위치에서의 최적 평균 왜곡 성능으로 살펴본다. 그 결과 대부분의 릴레이 위치에서 제안 방식이 기존 방식보다 성능이 좋으며, 특히 릴레이 노드가 원천 노드에 가까울수록 성능 이득이 더욱 증가함을 볼 수 있다.
