Cooperative Communication using relays which include network separated into fixed cooperative relaying and incremental cooperative relaying defending on method receiving signal from a source. If some nodes included network is Primary user ad source and destination, another is Secondary user as relay, The nodes included network excepting source can help PU transmit signal. In the case of all of SU playing a role as relay, destination can get diversity gain, but useless time slot is consumed for transmitting signal. So in this paper, we analysis cooperative relaying which a node succeeding to sense primary signal send signal to destination. We use matlab simulation tool and consider AF, DF, fixed relaying, incremental relaying

In this paper, we propose a cooperative communication scheme for high transmission efficiency and coverage extension under multipath fading environment of moving networks. The proposed scheme uses a Space-Time Block Code (STBC) for improvement of receiving performance by using virtual Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO) transmit diversity. It can also achieve faster transmission time than a conventional scheme by using virtual MIMO configurations. Simulation results have shown that the proposed scheme provides SNR improvement and has faster transmission time compared to the conventional scheme, since it can utilize the good properties of spatial diversity and coding gain by using virtual MIMO configuration. In this paper, we propose simulations of UWB communication system to show validity by using the MATLAB.

In this paper, we proposed spectrum sensing using cooperative relay to solve problem of sensing performance degradation due to CPE (Customer-Premises equipments) which causes low SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) problem. In cooperative communication system, AF (amplify-and-forward) and DF (decoded-and-forward) is widely used for relay mechanism. Also, it is expected that cooperative relay scheme guarantees the high sensing performance by its diversity gain. Based on these backgrounds, in this paper, we apply to cooperative relay scheme to the CR (Cognitive Radio) system, and simulation results show comparison of the sensing performance.

The MIMO has weak points such as size and cost of systems and the complexity of hardware augment. Thus, the cooperative transmission techniques have been recently discussed briskly and it also solves problems by increase of shadowy area. However, limited cooperation scheme is utilized due to a single-antenna at the destination. The base station is simply equipped with multiple antennas. When the base station has multiple antennas, cooperative diversity and multiplexing schemes can be easily applied in the base station. To guarantee reliability with high throughput, a cooperative hybrid cyclic relay diversity transmission scheme is proposed which can use an arbitrary number of relays without rate loss and a modification of the base station. The presented results show that the proposed schemes can be effectively applied to the existing various MIMO-OFDM communication system.

Error propagation of source-relay (S-R) link limits the performance of decode-and-forward (DF) relay and prohibits DF relay from achieving full diversity gain. In order to solve this problem, the proposed deployment strategy focuses on two objectives. One is to achieve full diversity gain, and the other is to minimize the used power of the DF relay system. In order to achieve full diversity, the error probability of S-R link should be lower than that of maximal ratio combining (MRC) at destination without error propagation since the error probability of the weaker link dominates the total error probability. The proposed strategy of relay positioning points out the range of the relay position for achieving full diversity, and the used power of the relay is minimized by this range. Analysis of error probability and simulation results prove that the two objectives are achieved by the proposed strategy of the relay position.

Cooperative diversity is a cooperative technique which exploits user diversity by decoding the combined signal of the relayed signal and the direct signal in wireless multi-hop networks. Using the cooperation, the performance of the network system can be improved because cooperative diversity which is very strong against the fading channels can be achieved. In this paper, we propose the technique that provides the enhanced visual quality of the reconstructed video using the cooperative diversity with the FMO which is the error resilience tool of H.264/AVC standardization over wireless networks. The eye-tracker can detect the gaze point of user and transmit the gaze information to the nodes. After receiving the gaze information of user, each node performs ROI encoding according to the received gaze information. After encoding, video sources are divided into ROI and Non-ROI. Through the simulation results, the better visual quality of the reconstructed video is achieved when ROI and Non-ROI are transmitted through different channels.

Recently, MIMO technology, which can improve data rate, link reliability and diversity order, has been widely studied. However, due to the limitation of size, cost and complexity, it is difficult to equip multiple antennas in mobile devices. To overcome this problem, the cooperative communication scheme has been proposed. In this scheme, each terminal shares its single antenna to form a virtual MIMO environment. However, in conventional cooperative scheme, e.g, decode-and-forward, amplify and forward, the spectral efficiency is decreased if there are many terminals taking part in the cooperation. Therefore, the incremental relaying scheme has been proposed to solve this problem. In this paper, we consider various models using incremental relaying technique. In addition, the position of relay is investigated in order to obtain optimal performance.

In this paper, we consider IOTA-OFDM/OQAM system that improves the transmission power and rate efficiency of conventional OFDM system and propose DF relaying cooperative communication scheme based on the IOTA-OFDM/OQAM system. In the proposed scheme, the destination receives orthogonal signals from source and relay simultaneously and combines using MRC. We demonstrated that the proposed schemes get better BER performance than conventional system because of the diversity gain.

In this paper, we analysis the end-to-end performance of the incremental cooperative communication with relay selection. In the conventional cooperative scheme, the source(S) broadcasts the signal to the relay(R) and the destination(D) at 1st phase, and the R forwards the signal to the D at 2nd phase. Although this scheme can improve performance and provide diversity gain, it suffers from decreasing spectrum efficiency. In order to overcome this problem, the incremental cooperative model can be used. In this paper, we study two incremental cooperative method : the first uses ARQ with threshold SNR and the second uses HARQ with channel coding. we also evaluated performance of the incremental cooperative communication based on the R arrangement by using both methods.
