2 Outline Introduction Introduction Supplementary cooperation (SC) Interference subtraction Conclusion

Introduction Cooperative diversity is a cooperative multiple antenna techniques which exploits user diversity by decoding the combined signal of the relayed signal and the direct signal in wireless multi-hop networks. 3

motivation for cooperative diversity 4 Motivation for ad-hoc networks with cooperative transmission –Wireless links are unreliable due to multi-path propagation –Spatial diversity is bandwidth efficient to combat fading –Spatial diversity is difficult to achieve due to processing complexity, power consumption,... Solution: Cooperative Transmission –Allow users to share their antennas cooperatively to assist each other for successful reception Advantages of cooperative transmission: Virtual antenna array –Boosted reception reliability –Achieved higher data rates –Bandwidth efficient and increased coverage

Linear Network Analysis 11 A five-node linear network Assumption: Transmission range=1; Interference range=2; Interference free, d>2 Each node successfully receives a message on an average in every two time slots, the average throughput for direct transmission with interference subtraction is

12 Linear Network Analysis A five-node linear network For conventional cooperative transmission: a message on an average requires three time slots to be received, the average throughput is For supplementary cooperative transmission: The average throughput is 24% 42%

13 Interference Effects on BER Performance Channel resource reuse factor: spatial frequency reuse for scheduling Link throughput can be increased without bring in significant BER Trade-off between throughput, reuse factor and end-to-end BER Link throughput is the desired transmission rate is the reuse factor

Conclusion 14 What we have done 1)Optimal solution: QoS routing algorithm for cooperative networks 2)Interference effects on BER performance 3)Throughput analysis Future works 1)Delay analysis 2)Multi-QoS solution; more insights on BER, delay and throughput 3)System performance for a general network scenario
