Abstract:
A method of multi-hop cooperative communication includes recognizing a plurality of relays capable of cooperating with one another to amplify or quantize and forward mixed signals received from a plurality of different nodes, selecting a transmission mode from a direct mode for transmission from a base station directly and a cooperation mode for transmission from the base station via the plurality of relays, transmitting data from the base station directly to a terminal through a first radio resource in the direct mode in response to the selected transmission mode being the direct mode, and transmitting data from the base station to the terminal via the plurality of relays through a second radio resource in the cooperation mode in response to the selected transmission mode being the cooperation mode.

Abstract:
Provided are a communication method and apparatus for device-to-device (D2D). More particularly, the communication method for D2D includes configuring a network topology using at least one cooperating base station to communicate among devices included in multiple heterogeneous cells, creating an association between multiple device pairs and at least one base station based on configuring the network topology, and determining a cooperation context for communication among the multiple device pairs is provided. The communication apparatus carries out such a method.
Abstract:
A scheduling method and a scheduling apparatus based on physical layer network coding for bidirectional traffic are provided. The method includes setting up paths passing through a node to perform the physical layer network coding of the bidirectional traffic of sessions that pass through the node. The method further includes requesting, from neighboring nodes of the node, information to be used to schedule the sessions for the physical layer network coding. The method further includes scheduling the sessions for the physical layer network coding based on a queue differential of each session that is calculated based on the information, and a rate of each link of each session.
Abstract:
A method for controlling a first node transmitting a transmission message to a plurality of second nodes may be provided. The method includes dividing the transmission message into at least one sub-message, encoding the at least one sub-message to a data stream, determining a first transmission direction of the data stream toward at least one of the plurality of second nodes, based on a polynomial of a channel gain between the first node and the at least one of the plurality of second nodes, and transmitting the data stream to the at least one of the plurality of second nodes, based on the determined first transmission direction.
Abstract:
Each of a first transmitter and a second transmitter uses a rate split scheme. Each of the first transmitter and the second transmitter may transmit at least four sub-messages, and different transmission powers may be allocated to the at least four sub-messages. Also, each of receivers may cooperate with each other, may share sub-messages that act as interferences, and may extract desired messages using the shared sub-messages.
Abstract:
System and methods for intercell coordination are provided. The system includes a macro terminal and a macro base station that allocate a radio resource for a sounding signal and determine a pattern of a sounding signal, in advance. The macro base station provides a femto base station included in the system with information about the pattern of the sounding signal, and the information about the radio resource of the sounding signal. The femto base station may receive the sounding signal from the macro terminal based on the information, and thus, the femto base station may determine whether the macro terminal exists and may determine a channel between the macro terminal and the femto base station.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus to control interference in a relay node are provided and include simultaneously receiving a symbol from source nodes, adjusting channel coefficients; and relaying the symbol to destination nodes with adjusted channel coefficients. The simultaneously receiving and the relaying are performed during a symbol transmission process between the source and destination nodes.
Abstract:
A method of controlling interference of relay nodes and node pairs in a multi-hop network, includes relaying signals received from source nodes among the node pairs to destination nodes pairing with the source nodes, and cancelling a part of interference signals between the node pairs by controlling channel coefficients of the relay nodes. The destination nodes are configured to cancel residual interference signals among the interference signals, using the signals received by the destination nodes.
