  • This paper proposes an energy efficient adaptive relay station ON/OFF scheme with different frequency reuse factors (FRFs) to enhance the system throughput and reduce the transmission energy consumption for the transparent mode of 2-hop cellular relay networks (CRNs) based on orthogonal frequency division multiple access and time division duplex. In the proposed scheme, the base station turns on or off the relay stations (RSs) when they are overutilized and undertuilized based on the traffic density of the cell coverage, respectively. Through the simulation results, we show that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional CRN in terms of the energy consumption with the same system throughput. Further, in order to increase the system throughput with low energy consumption, the best way is FRF 1 when the number of operating RSs is up to 4 and FRF 2 otherwise.

  • In this paper, we propose a packet scheduling algorithm for cellular relay networks by considering relay selection, variation of channel quality, and packet delay. In the networks, mobile users are equipped with not only cellular but also user relaying radio interfaces, where base station exploits adaptive high speed downlink channel. Our proposed algorithm selects a user with good cellular channel condition as a relay station for other users with bad cellular channel condition but can get access to relay link with good quality. This can achieve flexible packet scheduling by adjusting transmission rates of cellular link. Packets are scheduled for transmission depending on scheduling indexes which are calculated based on user's achieved transmission rate, packet utility, and proportional fairness of their throughput. The performance results obtained by using computer simulation show that the proposed scheduling algorithm is able to achieve high network capacity, low packet loss, and good fairness in terms of received throughput of mobile users.

  • This paper considers the physical layer security problem for a two-way vehicle-to-vehicle network, where the two source vehicles can only exchange information through an untrusted relay vehicle. The relay vehicle helps the two-way transmission but also acts as a potential eavesdropper. Each vehicle has a random velocity. By exploiting the random carrier frequency offsets (CFOs) caused by random motions, a secure double-differential two-way relay scheme is proposed. While achieving successful two-way transmission for the source vehicles, the proposed scheme guarantees a high decoding error floor at the untrusted relay vehicle. Average symbol error rate (SER) performance for the source vehicles and the untrusted relay vehicle is analyzed. Simulation results are provided to verify the proposed scheme.

  • The performance of power constrained cooperative multi-relay system with/without opportunistic transmission is considered in Rayleigh fading. The three power allocation methods are considered to maximize the system performance when the total network power is limited. It is analyzed that the opportunistic power allocation strategy has the best performance enhancement compared to the other power allocation strategies. The opportunistic relays increases with the total network power, which induce the higher diversity order of the opportunistic cooperative diversity, consequently improves the end-to-end outage probability.

  • In this paper, we present a transmission constraints modeling of carrier relay signal over ATM network. Since teleprotection system, which is used for protecting power transmission lines using telecommunications, has strict transmission delay constraints, it is a important problem to transmit teleprotection signals in future utilities' ATM networks when utilites' communications are integrated. Therefore, we considered the transmission constraints of carrier relay signal over ATM network and the transmission model system.

  • One of the imminent problems to be solved within wireless sensor network is to balance out energy dissipation among deployed sensor nodes. In this paper, we present a transmission relay method of communications between BS (Base Station) and CHs (Cluster Heads) for balancing the energy consumption and extending the average lifetime of sensor nodes by the fuzzy logic application. The proposed method is designed based on LEACH protocol. The area deployed by sensor nodes is divided into two groups based on distance from BS to the nodes. RCH (Relay Cluster Head) relays transmissions from CH to BS if the CH is in the area far away from BS in order to reduce the energy consumption. RCH decides whether to relay the transmissions based on the threshold distance value that is obtained as a output of fuzzy logic system, Our simulation result shows that the application of fuzzy logic provides the better balancing of energy depletion and prolonged lifetime of the nodes.

  • There are issues regarding how some of traffic parameters should be set so that ATM and non-ATM service parameters can be compatible. For example, policing method used by frame relay based on CIR(committed information rate) will not exactly match the ATM UPC(Usage Parameter Control) method. ATM and the frame relay have different transfer modes and traffic parameters. The cells and frames are police by their own traffic control schemes. For the same information, the real traffic of the ATM side takes greater bandwidth than that of the frame relay side caused by ATM cell format and AAL5 format. IN both networks this bandwidth than that of the frame relay side caused by ATM cell format and AAL5 format. In both networks this bandwidth ratio should be considered on traffic parameter mapping to maintain their QoS and to perform efficient network resource management. In this paper we describe traffic parameter mapping schemes between frame relay and ATM in ATM network and how to expect the bandwidth ratio to maintain FR QoS in ATM network. We assumed frame length distribution to Erlang or Exponential probability density function.

  • In this paper, we investigate a physical-layer network coding (PNC) in a two-way relay channel (TWRC) where two sources send and receive data with each other by help of a relay node with multiple antennas. We focus on the multiple-access phase of the TWRC in this paper. It is assumed that the source nodes do not know the wireless channel and the wireless channel independently varies in time, that is, fast fading environments. At the relay node, the channel is assumed to be perfectly known. The relay node utilizes the channel sate information and applies maximum likelihood ratio for detecting received signals. Through extensive simulations, it is shown that a bit error rate (BER) performance becomes improved as the number of antennas at the relay node increases.

  • Cooperative diversity is an effective technique to combat multi-path fading. When this technique is applied to energy-constrained wireless sensor networks, it is a key issue to design appropriate relay selection and power allocation strategies. In this paper, we proposed a new multi-relay selection and power allocation algorithm to maximize network lifetime. The algorithm are composed of two relay selection stages, where the channel condition and residual power of each node were considered in multi-relay selection and the power is fairly allocated proportional to the residual power, satisfies the required SNR at destination and minimizes the total transmit power. In this paper, proposed algorithm is based on AF (amplify and forward) model. We evaluated the proposed algorithm by using extensive simulation and simulation results show that proposed algorithm obtains much longer network lifetime than the conventional algorithm.
