Compared to nomadic and fixed relay stations, vehicle-mounted mobile relay stations show different characteristics caused by the time-variant topology, due to their mobility. Especially, a relay mounted in a vehicle is differentiated from nomadic or fixed relay by the restricted distance between the relay and associated mobile station and the variable density of relay deployment in a cell. In this paper, we identify the characteristics of vehicle-mounted mobile relay stations and provide some parameters that highly influence the performance of vehicle-mounted relay. Through simulation, we measure the effect of relay density, zone ratio, relay transmission power, and frame transmission mode on the performance of vehicle-mounted relay. The results show that the performance of vehicle-mounted relay is highly susceptible to the above vehicle-mounted relay-specific parameters.

A HEV-relay plays a significant role as a mechanical switch which determines the operation of a gasoline engine or an electric motor in a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). The HEV-relay has critical two problems in the operating process. First, the unstable current can occur in the operating process of the HEV-relay due to the severe bounce between moving and fixed electrode. Second, noises occur due to impact between electrodes in HEV-relay. In this research, spring properties such as stiffness and initial compression force, and electrode shape are designed to reduce the bounce time and noises caused by impact between moving and fixed electrode. The operating process of HEV-relay is simulated using LS-DYNA3D as explicit finite element code. The optimum spring properties are determined using the response surface method (RSM) as the design methodology, and the electrode shape is newly designed through the modifying the stiffness of moving and fixed electrode.

Loss of excitation (LOE) relay is prevalently used to protect synchronous generator. The widely used method for synchronous generator LOE protection is a negative offset mho relay with two zones. The basis of this relay is identical to mho impedance relay. In other words, this relay calculates impedance by measuring voltage and current at the generator terminal. On the other hand, the presence of series compensation, changes measured voltage and current signals during loss of excitation. This paper reveals that the presence of series compensators such as fixed series capacitors (FSCs) and static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) causes a significant delay on the performance of generator LOE relay. It is also shown that the presence of SSSC causes the LOE relay to be under-reached. Different operating modes of the power system, the SSSC and also different percentages of series capacitive compensations have been considered in the modeling. All the detailed simulations are carried out in the MATLAB/Simulink environment using the SimPowerSystems toolbox.

도심지역에서 사용되는 DSRC 통신시스템은 노변기지국과 차량간 100미터의 통신거리를 갖고 있으며, 이 특성을 이용하여 DSRC시스템에서 RSE(Road Side Equipment)는 차량으로부터 교통정보를 수집하거나 차량에 교통정보를 제공한다. 그러나 고속도로상에서 100미터 통신범위를 갖는 RSE를 사용하는 것은 장비가격 및 설치비가 고가이어서 현실적으로 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 RSE의 표준 셀 범위를 100미터에서 300미터로 확장하고 차량단말기가 RSE와 통신할 수 없는 불감지역을 Cover 하기 위하여 Fixed Relay를 도입하였으며, 이로 인해 Fixed Relay를 사용하는 것이 RSE 만을 사용하는 것 보다 더 경제적인 것을 보인다.

Recently WiBro network is installed for high speed wireless internet service by telecommunication service provider, however WiBro service is not provided in the region of mountain or difficult region to install network infra. Fixed repeater is used to resolve those shadow area problem in current WiBro network. This paper study introducing Ad-hoc based multi-hop relay instead of using fixed repeater in order to resolve those shadow area problem. Cost down of fixed repeater and active network expansion is possible to resolve shadow area problem by introducing multi-hop relay technology.

멀티미디어 데이터의 전송영역 확장을 위한 기술로 고정 릴레이 기반 셀룰러 시스템에 대한 관심이 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 고정 릴레이 기반 셀룰러 시스템에서 릴레이를 추가함으로 생기는 셀 간 또는 섹터 간 간섭은 기지국과 단말기 또는 릴레이와 단말이 사이의 높은 링크성능을 보장하지 못하여 성능저하를 가져올 수 있기 때문에 간섭을 회피하기 위한 자원할당은 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 리피터 중계기를 이용한 셀룰러 시스템과 릴레이를 이용한 셀룰러 시스템의 성능을 비교하여 릴레이 중계기를 이용할 때 셀 커버리지 확장을 비교하고자 한다. 비교를 위해 셀룰러 시스템에 고정 릴레이를 설치할 때 셀 간과 섹터 간 간섭을 피하기 위하여 리피터 중계기를 사용하는 경우의 자원할당과는 다른 자원 할당 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 인접한 기지국들과 릴레이들에게 서로 다른 주파수 자원을 할당하여 간섭을 줄임으로서 높은 데이터 전송영역의 확장이 가능하며, 기지국들과 릴레이들이 동시에 동작할 때 각 섹터에서 전체 주파수 대역을 사용함으로서 주파수 효율성을 높일 수 있다.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of an amplify-and-forward (AF) two-way relaying system, where two sources exchange information via the aid of an intermediate relay that is selected among multiple relays according to max-min criterion. We consider a practical scenario, where one source-relay link undergoes Rician fading, and the other source-relay link is subject to Rayleigh fading. To be specific, we derive a tight lower bound for the outage probability. From this lower bound, the asymptotic outage probability and average symbol error rate (SER) expressions are derived to gain insight into the system performance at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) region. Furthermore, we investigate the optimal power allocation (PA) with fixed relay location (RL), optimal RL with fixed PA and joint optimization of PA and RL to minimize the outage probability and average SER. The analytical expressions are verified through Monte Carlo simulations, where the positive impact of Rician factor on the system performance is also illustrated. Simulation results also validate the effectiveness of the proposed PA and relay positioning schemes.

In this paper, we investigate physical layer security for multiple decode-and-forward (DF) relaying underlay cognitive radio networks (CRNs) with fixed transmit power at the secondary network against passive eavesdropping attacks. We propose a simple relay selection scheme to improve wireless transmission security based on the instantaneous channel information of all legitimate users and the statistical information about the eavesdropper channels. The closed-form expressions of the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity and the secrecy outage probability (SOP) are derived over independent and non-identically distributed Rayleigh fading environments. Furthermore, we conduct the asymptotic analysis to evaluate the secrecy diversity order performance and prove that full diversity is achieved by using the proposed relay selection. Finally, numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis and depict that primary interference constrain has a significant impact on the secure performance and a proper transmit power for the second transmitters is preferred to be energy-efficient and improve the secure performance.

This paper investigates the performance of a hybrid single input multiple output radio frequency/free-space optics (SIMO-RF/FSO) communication system. Each SIMO-RF link is modeled as an independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) Rayleigh distribution, while the FSO link follows a generalized $M{\acute{a}}laga$ (M) distribution. Considering the fixed gain amplify-and-forward (AF) relay and misalignment errors, novel expressions for the outage probability (OP), average bit error rate (ABER) and average capacity are derived. Numerical results show that atmospheric turbulence and misalignment errors can seriously impair the system performance, and the hybrid RF/FSO communication system using SIMO-RF links can greatly improve system performance. We also analyze system performance under different types of modulation schemes. Numerical results are verified by Monte Carlo simulations.
