IntroductionCooperative networks

•Demands in wireless communications:

Higher data rateHigher spectrum efficiencyReliable connectionsLower energy consumptionLonger battery life…

•Dilemma: Limited resource <-> Unlimited requirements

•Solutions? Cooperative networks

IntroductionCooperative networks

WHY and HOW?

Please see one of the cooperative models: two- Path cooperative model

Source: S Relays: R Destination: D

RELAY

IntroductionCooperative networks

Large and better coverageLower transmission energyMore reliable connection……

There are loads of benefits. But….

The Limit of half-duplex transmission

At the relay:

At the destination:

R1 and R2 alternatively relay the data from S to D.

But… INTER RELAY INTERFERENCE (IRI)

IRI Cancellation Inter relay interference (IRI)

• Interference cancellation schemes• Our scheme: Physical Network Coding (PNC)

What is PNC?Why can PNC solve the problem?How does it work?

Solution

IRI Cancellation

To clearly show the basic mechanism: we use the following ideal model: Ideal environment: no noise, channels are stable (no fading)

Why and how does PNC work to reduce IRI?

R receives:

At n+1 time slot, R transmits the PNC result.

D receives:

Then R performs PNC.

IRI CancellationWhy and how does PNC work to reduce IRI?

IRI is totally removed!!!

At destination, we do another XOR:

How does PNC work?

The actual received signal at R is:

1-0.5*(Magnitude of received signal): 1: A and B are different0: A and B are the same

Physical-layer Network CodingPNC Example-BPSK

A: -1, 1B: -1, 1

So relay received patterns: -2 0 2, using the following equation:

If BPSK used, we have:

1 Mapping to 10 Mapping to -1

XOR!

How about other modulation schemes? e.g. QPSK

See the table below (It can be found in the paper)

The system model

The transmissions suffer from channel fading and additive noises.

How about in practical systems?

IRI CancellationIn practical system

1) MAP Detection at relays:

2) Joint detection and PNC:

3) Relay transmission

IRI CancellationIn practical situation:

4) MAP Detection at destination:

5) PNC decoding:

Conclusion and future work

The proposed PNC interference cancellation scheme can effectively reduce IRI

Its performance depends on the accuracy of channel estimation (MAP detection)

PNC can be used in signal processing areas to deal with interference problems
