The cellular system in the next generation decreases the range of transmission of a signal as well as increases the rate of transmission adapting the method of multi-hop relaying with the relay. However, the fact of decreasing the range of transmission with the method of multi-hop relaying means increasing interferential amount in the outer cell; therefore, the deployment of the relay can affect to the function of the cellular system. In this thesis, the deployment of the relay is determined for the maximum rate of transmission, based on the transmission power of the relay and the variation of interferential amount. The condition to determine the deployment of the relay is analyzed with the mathematical model; in addition, its performance is verified through the result of a simulation. Based on the analysis of this thesis, the established deployment and transmission power of the relay to minimize the average outage probability exist. Furthermore, the relay contributes to enlargement of capacity of cells, decreasing the average outage probability in the situation of less severe interference between cells with reuse of frequency. However, the relay should be restrained in use in the situation of severe interference between cells due to the fact that the outage probability of inter-cells can be increased.

As the number of mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets explodes, the need for new services or applications is also rapidly increasing. Smart class application is one of the emerging applications, in which most of contents are distributed to all members of a class simultaneously. It is highly required to select relay nodes to cover shadow area of radio as well as extend coverage, but existing algorithms in a smart class environment suffer from high control packet overhead and delay for exchanging topology information among all pairs of nodes to select relay nodes. In addition, the relay selection procedure should be repeated in order to adapt to the dynamic topology changes caused by link status changes or device's movement. This paper proposes the learning based relay selection algorithm to overcome aforementioned problems. The key idea is that every node keeps track of its relay quality in a fully distributed manner, where RQI (Relay Quality Indicator) is newly defined to measure both the ability of receiving packets from content source and the ability of successfully relaying them to successors. The RQI of each node is updated whenever it receives or relays broadcast packet, and the node having the higher RQI is selected as a relay node in a distributed and run-time manner. Thus, the proposed algorithm not only removes the overhead for obtaining prior knowledge to select relay nodes, but also provides the adaptability to the dynamic topology changes. The network simulation and experimental results prove that the proposed algorithm provides efficient and reliable content distribution to all members in a smart class as well adaptability against network dynamics.

This paper investigates the capacity rate problems for a joint decode-and-forward (JDF) based two-way relaying with network coding. We first characterize the achievable rate region for a conventional three-node network scenario along with the calculation of the corresponding maximal sum-rate. Then, for the goal of maximizing the system sum-rate, opportunistic relay selection is examined for multi-relay networks. As a result, a novel strategy for the implementation of relay selection is proposed, which depends on the instantaneous channel state and allows a single best relay to help the two-way information exchange. The JDF scheme and the scheme using relay selection are analyzed in terms of outage probability, after which the corresponding exact expressions are developed over Rayleigh fading channels. For the purpose of comparison, outage probabilities of the amplify-and-forward (AF) scheme and those of the scheme using relay selection are also derived. Finally, simulation experiments are done and performance comparisons are conducted. The results verify that the proposed strategy is an appropriate method for the implementation of relay selection and can achieve significant performance gains in terms of outage probability regardless of the symmetry or asymmetry of the channels. Compared with the AF scheme and the scheme using relay selection, the conventional JDF scheme and that using relay selection perform well at low signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs).

The WiMedia Alliance has specified a Distributed Medium Access Control (D-MAC) protocol based on UWB for high speed wireless home networks and WPANs. In this paper, firstly, a time slot reservation protocol for relay transmission is proposed. Furthermore, we propose a novel relay node selection algorithm adaptive to current UWB link transmission rate. The proposed relay node selection algorithm has compatibility with current WiMedia D-MAC standard and is executed at each device according to the SoQ as a QoS criterion.

Cooperative relaying methods have attracted a lot of interest in the past few years. A conventional cooperative relaying scheme has a source, a destination, and a single relay. This cooperative scheme can support one symbol transmission per time slot, and is caned full rate transmission. However, existing fun rate cooperative relay approaches provide asymmetrical gain for different transmitted symbols. In this paper, we propose a cooperative relaying scheme that is assisted with dual relays and provides full transmission rate with the same macro-diversity to each symbol. We also address equalization for the dual relay transmission system in addition to addressing the issues concerning the improvement of system performance in terms of optimal power allocations.

Various auto-tuning methods using relay feedback are presented recently. They are composed of the consecutive procedures identifying Nyquist critical point using relay feedback and designing PID controller by one point of Nyquist plot mapping. This paper suggests a strategy to get the knowledges of Nyquist critical point and the neighborhood point of it using relay feedback. The parameters of PID controller are established by dominant pole approximation based on these knowledges. Designers can make use of the damping ratio as a time domain specification. So design flexibilities are taken in view of stability and performance of the system response considering practical system condition.

A decode-and-forward two-way relay system benefits from orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and relay transmission. In this paper, we consider a decode-and-forward two-way relay system over OFDMwith two strategies: A joint subcarrier matching algorithm and a power allocation algorithm operating with a total power constraint for all subcarriers. The two strategies are studied based on average capacity using numerical analysis by uniformly allocating power constraints for each subcarrier matching group. An optimal subcarrier matching algorithm is proposed to match subcarriers in order of channel power gain for both transmission sides. Power allocation is defined based on equally distributing the capacity of each hop in each matching group. Afterward, a modified water-filling algorithm is also considered to allocate the power among all matching groups in order to increase the overall capacity of the network. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations are completed to confirm the numerical results and show the advantages of the joint subcarrier matching, power allocation and water filling algorithms, respectively.

In the point of view protective relay, the selectivity and sensitivity is very important in its performance. The correct setting of the relay parameter is required. The verification of accurate setting for the protective relay is very difficult before a actual fault occurs. In this paper, we proposed the diagnosis expert system as a method to verify the correctness of the relay setting. The developed system proved effectiveness through the tests on the real systems.
