The analysis is then extended to a scenario where the destination combines the signals corresponding to the source and the relay transmissions using maximal ratio combining technique. The statistics of the equivalent SNR is studied and some new closed form expressions at high SNR regime are derived. The comparison of theoretical and numerical results shows that the high SNR expressions for outage probability are adequately tight in low SNR too. The performance of the AF relaying system is further investigated at low SNR regime; the results show that at low SNR regime, the relay transmission does not play role on the the performance of the overall system, therefore, spending resources (e.g. power or bandwidth) for the relay transmission is only wasting the resources whereas at high SNR regime the relay transmission provides full diversity.","PeriodicalId":167119,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126787001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, a review of the most recent results on cooperative spectrum sensing is provided, resulting in the identification of measurement correlation and frame error rate in the reporting channel as the main parameters influencing the performance of cooperative sensing schemes. Next, the paper discusses the extension of the analysis to the case of mobile sensors, and determines the set of assumptions made in existing literature when taking into account mobility in sensing. The paper moves then to remove some of such assumptions, by presenting simulation results obtained in presence of realistic models for propagation in the considered area, as well as of a realistic mobility model. A comparison between theoretical derivation and simulation results shows that correlation among measurements taken by different sensors and the selected mobility model may significantly affect the sensing performance.","PeriodicalId":167119,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"146 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121415457","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to fully exploit the intrinsically scarce resources WMNS possess, the use of dynamic routing has been proposed. We argue instead in favour of separating routing from forwarding (i.e. à la MPLS) and implementing a dynamic load-balancing scheme that forwards incoming packets along several pre-established paths in order to minimize a certain congestion function. In this paper, we consider a particular but very important scenario: a planned WMN where all bidirectional point-to-point links do not interfere with each other. Due to its versatility and simplicity, we use the sum over all links of the mean queue length as congestion function. A method to learn this function from measurements is presented, whereas simulations illustrate the framework.","PeriodicalId":167119,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127594048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first type of region guarantees to achieve a target spectral efficiency with a threshold probability when only one transmitter is active. In the second type of region, two transmitters are simultaneously active and cooperate through a coding scheme to ensure a better quality of service at the user equipment (UE).

While this scheme shows significant performance gains over benchmark approaches, it employs a frequency-decoupled detector structure that is not optimal in the presence of correlation between subband occupancies, a common situation in CR applications. In this paper, we investigate how a frequency-coupled optimum linear energy combiner (OLEC) structure, recently proposed for single user scenarios, can be integrated into the above multiband joint detection framework to take further advantage of subband occupancy correlation in wideband spectrum sensing. We first analyze the performance of the single-user OLEC and derive expressions for its probabilities of false alarm and missed detection. Using these expressions, we then formulate joint optimization problems for the detection thresholds used by a bank of subband OLECs, with the aim to maximize the aggregate opportunistic throughput under interference constraints. Through numerical experiments with a Markov model of subband occupancy, we show that the use of the OLEC in wideband spectrum sensing can significantly enhance CR performance in terms of these global metrics, when compared to the decoupled multiband processing structure.","PeriodicalId":167119,"journal":{"name":"2012 International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems (ISWCS)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134020206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
