Rician Fading Channels

In this study, we consider a multiway massive multi-input multi-output (MIMO) relay network over Rician fading channels, where all users intend to share their information with the other users via amplify-and-forward (AF) relays equipped with a great number of antennas. More practical, the imperfect channel state information (CSI) is taken into account. To evaluate the performance of the considered networks, we derived an analytical approximation expression for the spectral efficiency with zero-forcing (ZF) receivers in a closed form. To obtain more insights, the asymptotic analysis as the number of relay antenna approaching infinity is carried out. Finally, the power scaling law is analyzed for two scenarios. The results reveal that (1) massive MIMO is capable of compensating the loss caused by Rician fading, (2) the sum spectral efficiency increases with the increase of the Rician factor, and (3) deploying large-scale antenna is effective to save cost and keep performance.

Background & Objective: This paper considers a multi-pair wireless network, which communicates peer-to-peer using some multi-antenna amplify-and-forward relays. Maximizing the throughput supposing that the total relay nodes’ power consumption is constrained, is the main objective of this investigation. We prove that finding the beamforming matrix is not a convex problem. Methods: Therefore, by using a semidefinite relaxation technique we find a semidefinite programming problem. Moreover, we propose a novel algorithm for maximizing the total signal to the total leakage ratio. Numerical analyses show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm which offers higher throughput compared to the existing total leakage minimization algorithm, with much less complexity. Results and Conclusion: Furthermore, the effect of different parameters such as, the number of relays, the number of antennas in each relay, the number of transmitter/receiver pairs and uplink and downlink channel gains are investigated.

The Ideal

In this paper, an amplify-and-forward (AF) multi-relay network is considered. In order to minimize the system outage probability, a new power allocation and multi-relay selection algorithm is proposed under total power constraint and each node power constraint. In the proposed algorithm, the ideal of ordering is adopted, which leads to the remarkable decrease of the computation complexity together with simple power reallocation. Simulation results show that the proposed multi-relay selection algorithm performs close to the optimal scheme with optimal power allocation and exhaustive search (OPA-ES) but with much lower complexity.
