This paper investigates a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) multi-relay amplify-and-forward (AF) full-duplex (FD) network using optimal joint relay and antenna selection over Rayleigh block fading channels. For system performance analysis, outage probability (OP) is theoretically analyzed to obtain exact and asymptotic expressions of OP where asymptotic derivations using the assumption of high signal-to-noise rate (SNR) regime. Numerical results are provided to verify the validity of the derived OP expressions by comparing with the related empirical performance. The paper shows that under different scenarios the exact OP expression values are close the related empirical ones while the approximated OP expression values approach to the empirical OP under high SNR conditions.

We analyze the ergodic capacity of a dual-hop full duplex amplify-and-forward (AF) vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) cooperative relaying system over Nakagami-m fading channels. In this context, the impacts of self-interference (SI) at the relay and co-channel interference (CCI) at the destination are taken into account in this analysis. Precisely, based on the analysis of the moment generating function (MGF) of the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), new exact and lower bound expressions for the ergodic capacity are derived. The ergodic capacity upper bound is also derived based on the asymptotic outage probability of the approximated SINR. Monte-Carlo simulation results are presented to corroborate the derived analytical results. Our results show the significant impact of the considered interferences on the system performance. It is shown that the ergodic capacity is degraded when the average SI at the relay and/or the average CCI at the destination is increased. This highlights the importance of taking these phenomena into account in the performance evaluation in order to assess the practical limit of full duplex relaying (FDR) cooperative wireless communications. Interestingly, it is also observed that FDR with SI and CCI still shows a higher ergodic capacity than the interference-free half duplex relaying, especially at medium to high signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs).

Abstract Although the progress in understanding 5G and beyond techniques such as Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) and full-duplex techniques has been overwhelming, still analyzing the security aspects of such systems under different scenarios and settings is an important concern that needs further exploration. In particular, when considering fading in wiretap channels and scenarios, achieving secrecy has posed many challenges. In this context, we propose to study the physical layer security (PLS) of cooperative NOMA (C-NOMA) system using the general fading distribution κ - μ. This distribution facilitates mainly the effect of light-of-sight as well as multipath fading. It also includes multiple distributions as special cases like: Rayleigh, Rice, Nakagami-m which help to understand the comportment of C-NOMA systems under different fading parameters. The use of Half-Duplex and Full-Duplex communication is also investigated for both Amplify-and-forward (AF) and Decode-and-Forward (DF) relaying protocols. To characterize the secrecy performance of the proposed C-NOMA systems, closed form expressions of the Secrecy Outage Probability (SOP) and the Strictly Positive Secrcey Capacity (SPSC) metrics for the strong and weak users are given for high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) due to the intractable nature of the exact expressions. Based on the analytical analysis, numerical and simulation results are given under different network parameters.

Abstract In this paper, we investigate physical layer security of multi-relay non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks with partial relay selection considering decode-and-forward (DF) and amplify-and-forward (AF) protocols. We propose a partial relay scheme aiming to select the best relay based on the highest signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) of the first link. We derive new exact and asymptotic expressions for strictly positive secrecy capacity (SPSC) and secrecy outage probability (SOP) considering Rayleigh fading channels. Numerical results demonstrate that AF and DF provide almost a similar secrecy performance. Moreover, they prove that partial relay selection improves SPSC and reduces SOP when the relay-cluster is closer to the legitimate receiver.

In this Letter, assuming a Nakagami-m fading scenario, closed-form asymptotic expressions for the average symbol error probability (ASEP) of dual-hop amplify-and-forward (AF) cooperative systems with partial relay selection are derived. Based on these expressions, the diversity order is obtained and insightful conclusions are drawn. Numerical results are plotted and the asymptotic curves match very well in the medium and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions with those obtained by simulations.

Amplify-and-Forward (AF) is a simple cooperative strategy for ad-hoc networks with critical power constraints. It involves an amplification of the received signal in the analogue domain at the relays without further signal processing. This chapter gives an overview of the basic AF protocols in the literature and discuss recent research contributions in this area. Based on some well-defined AF-based cooperative configurations, it focuses on the behaviour of AF in block-fading channels, in power allocation problems, in relay selection, and in cross-layer coordination. Mathematical models and outage probability simulations are used in order to show the enhancements of the presented AF techniques.

In this paper, a bidirectional full-duplex amplify- and-forward (AF) relay network with multiple antennas at source nodes is proposed. Assuming that the channel state information is known at the source nodes, transmit antenna selection and maximal ratio combining (MRC) are employed when source nodes transmit information to the relay node and receive information from the relay node respectively, in order to improve the overall signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR). Analytical expressions are derived for tight upper bound SINR at the relay node and source nodes upon reception. Further, losed form expressions are also derived for end-to-end outage probability of the proposed bidirectional full-duplex AF relay network in the Nakagami-m fading channel environment. Although self-interference at the relay node limits the performance of the full-duplex network, the outage performance of the proposed network is better than that of conventional bidirectional full-duplex and half-duplex AF relay networks, due to the selection diversity gain in TAS and diversity and array gain in MRC.

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.
