An amplify-and-forward scheme for cognitive radios

2014 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2014
In this paper, we propose an opportunistic amplify-and-forward relaying scheme for a cognitive radio network, which is aimed at allowing a secondary user (SU) to transmit over the same timefrequency slot of a primary user (PU). In our scheme, the SU amplifies and transmits the PU signal it receives, by using as relaying gain the information symbols ...

Amplify-and-forward with partial relay selection

IEEE Communications Letters, 2008
This letter offers a statistical analysis of the basic two-hop Amplify-and-Forward link, where the relay node is selected based on instantaneous and partial knowledge of the channel. In contrast with previously reported work, where relay selection requires global knowledge (2 hops) of the relaying link, the problem considered is interesting in ...

Performance of Untrusted Amplify-and-Forward Relaying

2013 4th International Conference on Intelligent Systems, Modelling and Simulation, 2013
In this paper, we analyze the secrecy outage performance of amplify-and-forward (AF)-based relay networks consisting of a source, a destination, and an untrusted relay, where each terminal has a single antenna and operates in a half-duplex mode. In this network, the common message is transmitted through the relay-path, and the private message is ...

Relay-Aided Amplify-and-Forward Powerline Communications

IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, 2013
Powerline communications (PLC) is a favorable technique for many smart grid applications. By transmitting information over the existing powerline infrastructure, PLC has the benefit of low deployment cost. However, due to low transmit power, limited bandwidth, and harsh channel conditions, reliable long-distance and high-capacity PLC is challenging ...

An Amplify-and-Forward architecture for low spectral efficiencies

2009 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 2009
This paper proposes a simple architecture for half-duplex cooperative systems which use Amplify-and-Forward (AF) as a relay strategy and one-dimensional modulations for source messages. The proposed solution uses the two orthogonal channels of quadrature modulation in order to allow a node to behave simultaneously as a source and a relay. We prove that

Performance Analysis of a Multiuser Dual-Hop Amplify-and-Forward Relay System With FSO/RF Links

IEEE\/OSA Journal of Optical Communications and Networking, 2019
This paper studies the performance of dual-hop multiuser relay systems over mixed free-space optical/radio frequency (FSO/RF) links. We consider a system where a source node wants to communicate with multiple users through a single relay. The source node

Non-orthogonal Amplify-and-Forward for block-fading channels

2008 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory, 2008
In this paper, we deal with the amplify-and-forward (AF) cooperative strategy in slot-based block-fading environments. In contrast with previous schemes which assume a constant channel during the cooperative frame (several slots), here, we relax this constraint and assume a classical quasi-static block-fading channel (constant for one slot).

Overview of Amplify-and-Forward Relaying

2010
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

Flexible Amplify and Forward Relaying Protocol with Optimized Duplexing

VTC Spring 2009 - IEEE 69th Vehicular Technology Conference, 2009
In this paper we propose a novel flexible amplify and forward (AF) relaying protocol with different duplexing ratios. We show that the average throughput can be considerably improved by properly adjusting the duplex ratio. Here it is considered that the transmitted and received channel state information (CSI) are available at the relay.

Amplify-and-forward multihop non-line-of-sight ultraviolet communication in the gamma–gamma fading channel

IEEE\/OSA Journal of Optical Communications and Networking, 2019
In this paper, we propose amplify-and-forward-based multihop non-line-of-sight (NLOS) ultraviolet (UV) communication with subcarrier intensity modulation to mitigate turbulence-induced fading.
