A Distributed High-rate and Low-detection Complexity Cooperative Relay Transmission Scheme

摘要

Since the existing full-rate cooperative transmission schemes have a serious defect in low Bit Error Rate (BER) performance while the existing high-rate cooperative transmission schemes have a serious defect in low spectral efficiency, a distributed high-rate cooperative relay transmission scheme based on full-rate cooperative communication model is proposed in this paper, in which Cyclic Delay Diversity (CDD) technology and Linear Constellation Precoding (LCP) technology are employed. Moreover, the proposed scheme addresses the issue of obtaining maximum spatial and multipath diversity with low decoding complexity and high transmission reliability. The BER performance of the proposed scheme is contrasted to that of the full-rate transmission scheme where better performance is achieved, and is improved when the number of the multipath or the relay nodes increases.
