In this paper, characteristics of wireless power transfer (WPT) systems using magnetically coupled resonance scheme with relay coils are investigated and modeled. Especially, asymmetric frequency splitting characteristics in over-coupled region of WPT with relays are measured and accurately modeled. Transmitter, receiver, and relay coils are modeled with R, L, C equivalent circuits. Using these circuit models and mutual inductances between coils, a WPT system is described with a linear matrix equation. For under-coupled region, a matrix is simplified considering only mutual inductances between adjacent coils. An analytical transfer characteristic of WPT system vs. distance is extracted using an inverse matrix that is acquired by Gauss elimination method for the simplified matrix. For over-coupled region, a matrix considering mutual inductances between non-adjacent coils is used to predict a frequency splitting characteristics accurately. A 6.3MHz WPT system with relay coils is implemented and measured. An accuracy of the model is investigated by comparing the output of the model with the measured results.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems assisted by multi-relays with single antenna are considered. Signal transmission consists of two hops. In the first hop, the source node broadcasts the vector symbols to all relays, then all relays forward the received signals multiplied by each power gain to the destination simultaneously. Unlike the case of full cooperation between relays such as single relay with multiple antennas, in our case there is no closed form solution for optimal relay power gain with respect to minimum mean square error (MMSE). Thus we propose an alternative approach in which we use an approximation of the cost function based on rank-one matrix decomposition. As a cost function, we choose the trace of MSE matrix. We give several simulation results to validate that our proposed method obtains a negligible performance loss compared to optimal solution obtained by exhaustive search.

This paper studies a multi-antenna wireless relay network in the presence of a jammer. In this network, the source node transmits signals to the destination node through a multi-antenna relay node which adopts the amplify-and-forward scheme, and the jammer attempts to inject additive signals on all antennas of the relay node. With the linear beamforming scheme at the relay node, this network can be modeled as an equivalent Gaussian arbitrarily varying channel (GAVC). Based on this observation, we deduce the mathematical closed-forms of the capacities for two special cases and the suboptimal achievable rate for the general case, respectively. To reduce complexity, we further propose an optimal structure of the beamforming matrix. In addition, we present a second order cone programming (SOCP)-based algorithm to efficiently compute the optimal beamforming matrix so as to maximize the transmission rate between the source and the destination when the perfect channel state information (CSI) is available. Our numerical simulations show significant improvements of our propose scheme over other baseline ones.

This paper analyzes interference alignment in the two-way relay network with compute-and-forward in both single relay and multiple relays networks. The advantages of compute-and-forward over other relaying strategies are that it can relay only linear combinations of the useful signals and remove the noise. The algorithm proposed in this paper adopts the criterion of maximum SINR to derive the pre-coding matrix. The experimental results show that the performance of interference alignment in two-way relay channel via compute-and-forward is better than that of amplify-and-forward, and the total sum rate in the two-way multiple relay networks is larger than that in the two-way single relay networks.

This paper presents a new method for analyzing the maximum efficiency of a wireless power transfer (WPT) system with multiple n resonators. The method is based on ABCD matrices and allows transformation of the WPT system with multiple n resonators into a single two-port network system. The general maximum efficiency equation of a WPT system with multiple n resonators is derived using the ABCD matrix. Use of this equation allows placement of the relay resonators for maximum efficiency even though they are asymmetrical. The general maximum efficiency equation and the method of the optimum placement are verified by a full wave simulation. The results show that the method is useful for the analysis of a WPT system with relay resonators.

본 논문에서는 계층적 클러스터 구조에서 속도, 방향 등의 속성정보를 예측하여 연결성을 분석하는 EPCM(Efficient Prediction-based Context-awareness Matrix) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존 DTN에서는 제한 없는 중계노드 선정으로 인한 지연시간이 증가하고, 제한적인 저장용량 및 처리능력의 한계로 패킷손실 및 오버헤드가 발생한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 클러스터의 속성정보를 주어진 매트릭으로부터 정의하고 예측하여 베이스스테이션과의 연결성에 따라 중계노드를 선정하는 EPCM 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 클러스터의 속성정보를 상황정보 매트릭스에 저장 및 분석하고, 적응적 보정가중치의 오차보정으로 클러스터의 속성정보를 예측한다. 또한 예측된 속성정보에 따른 연결성으로 베이스스테이션을 향하여 이동하는 중계노드를 선정하게 된다. 주어진 환경에 따른 모의실험에서 예측된 노드의 속성정보를 통한 연결성으로 중계노드를 선정함으로써 전송능력을 비교 분석한 결과 높은 패킷 전송률을 보여주었다.

본 논문에서는 증폭 후 재전송 프로토콜 기반의 다중 안테나 다중 중계 시스템에서 저 복잡도의 전력 할당 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 다중 안테나 전처리 기법이 복소수로 구성 된 꽉 찬 행렬을 전처리 필터로 사용하였다면, 제안 하는 기법은 각 중계 노드에서 안테나 별 전력으로 구성 된 실수 대각 행렬을 전처리 필터로 사용한다고 볼 수 있다. 추가적으로 복소수 꽉 찬행렬로 유효 채널을 대각화 하지 못함에서 발생하는 오차를 감소시키기 위해 가중치 벡터를 각 스트림에 적용시켜 안테나 수와 상관없이 낮은 복잡도로 최적 성능에 근접한 성능을 얻을 수 있다. 마지막으로 모의실험을 통해 제안하는 기법이 상호정보량 측면에서 기존의 기법들보다 우수함을 보인다.

In this paper, we propose a reliable $8{\times}8$ up-down switching polar relay code based on 3GPP LTE standard, motivated by 3GPP LTE down link, which is 30 bps/Hz for $8{\times}8$ MIMO antennas, and by Arikan's channel polarization for the frequency selective fading (FSF) channels with the generator matrix $Q_8$. In this scheme, a polar encoder and OFDM modulator are implemented sequentially at both the source node and relay nodes, the time reversion and complex conjugation operations are separately implemented at each relay node, and the successive interference cancellation (SIC) decoder, together with the cyclic prefix (CP) removal, is performed at the destination node. Use of the scheme shows that decoding at the relay without any delay is not required, which results in a lower complexity. The numerical result shows that the system coded by polar codes has better performance than currently used designs.

This paper studies a parallel relay network where the relays employ an amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying scheme and are subjected to individual power constraints. We consider correlated effective relay noise arising from practical scenarios when the relays are exposed to common interferers. Assuming that the noise covariance and the full channel state information are available, we investigate the problem of finding the optimal AF scheme in terms of maximum end-to-end transmission rate. It is shown that the maximization problem can be equivalently transformed to a convex semi-definite program, which can be efficiently solved. Then an upper bound on the maximum achievable AF rate of this network is provided to further evaluate the performance of the optimal AF scheme. It is proved that the upper bound can be asymptotically achieved in two special regimes when the transmit power of the source node or the relays is sufficiently large. Finally, both theoretical and numerical results are given to show that, on average, noise correlation is beneficial to the transmission rate - whether the relays know the noise covariance matrix or not.

본 논문에서는 여러 송수신 안테나를 갖는 송신기(source node), 중계기(relay node), 수신기(destination node)로 구성된 두 홉(two-hop) 빔포밍(beamforming) 중계 시스템을 고려한다. 송수신 심벌간 평균제곱오차(mean square error: MSE)를 최소화하는 송수신기 빔포밍 벡터와 중계기 가중치 행렬을 설계한다. 이때, 송신기 또는 중계기에 송신 전력을 줄이기 위하여, 국소(local)부동식전력제약(inequality power constraint)을 사용한다. 제약식이 있는 평균제곱오차 최소화 문제는 라그랑즈(Lagrange) 방법을 써 제약식이 없는 최적화 문제로 바꿀 수 있고, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) 조건으로부터 그 해를 얻을 수 있다. 제안한 중계 시스템에 송신기와 중계기 송신전력을 각각 국소부동식으로 제약하여, 그 결과 두 홉에 채널 상태가 다를 경우, 최대 신호대잡음비(signal-to-noise ratio: SNR)를 얻는 기존 방식과 대등한 성능을 내며, 동시에 송신기 또는 중계기 송신 전력을 줄일 수 있다. 이를 모의실험을 통해 확인하였다.
