In this paper, we analyze the performance of in-band full-duplex (IBFD) relay systems that use the decode-and-forward (DF) protocol at the relay under the impact of imperfect self-interference cancellation and hardware impairments. Three practical relay scenarios are considered in our analysis: (i) there is no direct link from the source to the destination; (ii) there is a direct link, but the signal from the source is considered interference; and (iii) there is a direct link, and the signal from the source is cooperatively combined with that from the relaying path. Specifically, we derive exact and asymptotic expressions for the outage probability (OP) of the IBFD system. Based on the OP, the exact expression for symbol error probability (SEP) is also derived. Moreover, in order to cope with the effect of imperfect self-interference cancellation (SIC) due to the full-duplex mode, we propose optimal and suboptimal power calculation methods for the relay to minimize the OP and SEP. A performance evaluation shows that the IBFD relay system is significantly affected by both imperfect SIC and hardware impairments. However, the optimal power values can help to improve the system performance, significantly.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of a full-duplex (FD) amplify-and-forward (AF) relay system with imperfect hardware. Besides the aggregate hardware impairments of the imperfect transceiver, we also consider the impact of residual self-interference (RSI) due to imperfect cancellation at the FD relay node. An analytical framework for analyzing the system performance including exact outage probability (OP), asymptotic OP, and approximate symbol error probability (SEP) is developed. In order to tackle these impacts, we propose an optimal power allocation scheme which can improve the outage performance of the FD relay node, especially at the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. Numerical results are presented for various evaluation scenarios and verified using the Monte Carlo simulations.

Powerline network is recognized as a favorable infrastructure for Smart Grid to transmit information in the network thanks to its broad coverage and low cost deployment. The existing works are trying to improve and adapt transmission techniques to reduce Powerline Communication (PLC) channel attenuation and exploit the limited bandwidth to support high data rate over long distances. Two-hop relaying BroadBand PLC (BB-PLC) system, in which Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is used, is considered in this paper. We derive and compare the PLC channel capacity and the end-to-end Average BER (ABER) for OFDM-based direct link (DL) BB-PLC system and for OFDM-based two-hop relaying BB-PLC system for Amplify and Forward (AF) and Decode and Forward (DF) protocols. We analyze the improvements when we consider the direct link in a cooperative communication when the relay node only transmits the correctly decoded signal. Maximum ratio combining is employed at the destination node to detect the transmitted signal. In addition, in this paper, we highlight the impact of the relay location on the channel capacity and ABER for AF and DF transmission protocols. Moreover, an efficient use of the direct link was also investigated in this paper.

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has recently emerged as a promising technology for 6G wireless systems, due to its capability to reconfigure the wireless propagation environment. In this paper, we investigate a Rate-Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA) for IRS-assisted downlink system, where the base station (BS) communicates with single-antenna users with the help of an IRS. RSMA relies on rate-splitting (RS) at the BS and successive interference cancellation (SIC) at the users and provides a generalized multiple access framework. We derive a new architecture called IRS-RS that leverages the interplay between RS and IRS. For performance analysis, we utilize an \textit{on-off control technique} to control the passive beamforming vector of the IRS-RS and derive the closed-form expressions for outage probability of cell-edge users and near users. Moreover, we also analyze the outage behavior of cell-edge users for a sufficiently large number of reflecting elements. Additionally, we also analyze the outage performance of cooperative RS based decode-and-forward (DF)-assisted framework called DF-RS. Through simulation results, it is shown that the proposed framework outperforms the corresponding DF-RS, RS without IRS and IRS-assisted conventional non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) schemes. Furthermore, the impact of various system's parameters such as the number of IRS reflecting elements and the number of users on the system performance is revealed.

In this paper, we consider a dual-user nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with the help of full-duplex decode-and-forward (DF) relay systems with respect to Nakagami-m fading channel environment. Especially, we derive the analytical expressions to evaluate system performance in terms of outage probability, achievable throughput, and energy efficiency. The main investigation is on considering how the fading parameters and transmitting power at the base station make crucial impacts on system performance in the various scenarios. Finally, simulations are conducted to confirm the validity of the analysis and show the system performance of NOMA under different fading parameters of Nakagami-m fading channels.

A low complexity joint estimator of multiple CFOs and Channels is presented in cooperative relay systems. The new algorithm first utilizes correlation-based frequency estimator to get CFOs initial estimation, and then serial interference cancellation based on correlation properties of training sequence in different relays is done to obtain the initial channel estimation. Moreover, a parallel iteration scheme with interference cancellation is proposed to reduce time complexity of the traditional serial iteration. In the overall process, matrix inversion is avoided. Thus, the complexity of the proposed algorithm in both time and computation is much less than the existing algorithms. In last, simulation results verify the iterative algorithm achieves a good performance in Decode and Forward (DF) relay system.
