Network coding is becoming more and more popular in recent years for its ability to improve network throughput and robustness. In this paper, we propose a scheme of joint network coding and channel coding based on Turbo-BICM over multiple-access channel (MAC). The scheme with only a turbo decoder significantly reduces the complexity of system. Moreover, it can offer the best error performance in the high SNR regime. These conclusions are validated by both theoretical analysis and simulation results. Interesting, we also find that a detached scheme, which first operates channel coding then network coding, approaches the upper bound in the low SNR regime.

In this paper, an Urgency-based MAC (U-MAC) protocol, in which sensor nodes reporting urgent health information are given higher priority by cutting-off the number of packet retransmission of sensor nodes with non urgent health information, is proposed. The main consideration of this work is providing Quality of Service (QoS) support in medical wireless sensor networks through differentiating nodal access to the medium. The proposed MAC protocol is mathematically analyzed considering a beacon-enabled star network configuration of the IEEE 802.15.4a standard at 2.4 GHz. The used wireless body area network (WBAN) consists of N sensor nodes controlled by a single network coordinator. The obtained performance results show the capability of the proposed UMAC protocol in providing service differentiation in medical WBAN. Also, the results show that the number of critical nodes that can be supported by WBAN and their packet arrival rates decrease as the number of packet retransmission of such nodes is increased.

Distributed antenna systems(DAS) are techniques to improve the coverage and capacity of wireless system by reducing large scale fading of wireless channels. It is especially effective in noise limited scenarios, e.g. uplink transmission. In this paper, we propose a DAS layout where multiple sectorized antennas are located at the corners of hexagonal sectors. These distributed antennas are connected with a central unit within a sector via optical fibers. Only the signals received by distributed antennas within a sector are jointly processed. The power consumption and spectrum efficiency of several uplink transmission schemes in the proposed DAS layout are evaluated and compared with those in centralized antenna systems(CAS) in multi-cell environment. Compared with the baseline in the CAS layout, user equipment(UE) in the proposed DAS layout can spare the power consumption by as much as 16.25dB suppose the same spectrum efficiency threshold. Or equivalently, average and 5% outage spectrum efficiency are improved by as much as 226% and 209% respectively with same power consumption.

We propose a cognitive cooperative scheme based on cognitive relays in the downlink of a time division multiple access (TDMA) system. Cognitive relays utilize the spectrum holes detected via the spectrum detection to relay information, which can share the downlink slots through the frequency-division orthogonal transmission. Therefore, no extra system resources (slots or channels) are allocated for cooperation and the system encounters no bandwidth loss. Compared with the conventional cooperative scheme, the system throughput of our scheme can be significantly improved due to slot savings; however, our scheme suffers from outage performance degradation because the cognitive relays may not acquire spectrum holes or introduce interference from the licensed users of the spectrum as a result of acquiring spectrum "holes" by mistake. The analysis and simulation results suggest our scheme to achieve the system throughput gain at the price of the diversity performance loss.

This article studies the performance of M-ary phase shift keying (PSK) modulation schemes over mobile-to-mobile (M2M) fading channels with equal gain combining (EGC) in cooperative networks. The frequency-nonselective M2M fading channels are modeled assuming non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation conditions. Furthermore, a dual-hop amplify-and-forward relay type cooperative network is taken into consideration here. It is assumed that K diversity branches are present between the source mobile station and the destination mobile station via K mobile relays. The performance of M-ary PSK modulation schemes is analyzed by evaluating the average bit error probability (BEP). We have derived a simple analytical approximation for the average BEP of M-ary PSK modulation schemes over relay-based M2M fading channels with EGC. The validity and accuracy of the analytical approximation is confirmed by simulations. The presented results show that in a dual-hop relay system with EGC, there is a remarkable improvement in the diversity gain as the number of diversity branches K increases.

We investigate different schemes for data dissemination in multi-hop ad-hoc networks using network coding. We study the performance of these schemes in terms of the completion time when a set of data packets must be disseminated from a single source to all nodes in a multi-hop network, i.e. a network where at least one node is several hops away from the source. Therefore some network nodes must relay information to other nodes that are farther away from the source. In this setting, a relay node does not send a particular data packet, but a linear combination of the packets that it has previously received. The selection of such relays has a significant impact on performance. We present a graphical simulator based on OpenGL that allows to study performance and illustrate the status of network nodes in real time during the dissemination of an image file. Features of real-life ad-hoc networks such as packet losses and collisions are taken into consideration in our simulator. Numerical results are presented for simple linear meshed networks and for arbitrary topologies. Results indicate that schemes promoting parallel non-interfering transmissions complete the dissemination process faster.

Contrary to previous works, we focus on cooperation and competition relationship and the interactive dynamic behavior between multiple primary users (PUs) and secondary users (SUs) in a multiple cognitive interference channel context. Because of different levels of context information perceived by different types of players, e.g. the PUs and the SUs, and unbalanced nature of the spectrum priority among the multi-SUs/Pus in this setting, we investigate capacity maximization using the Stackelberg game modeling approach. Especially, we analyze the multi-leaders and multi-followers case, and further give a one-by-one case for making this model clear. Some conclusions are given via theorems. In addition, we propose the distributed iterative water-filling algorithms (IWFA) for pursuing Nash equilibrium solution (NES) and the Stackelberg equilibrium solution (SES) with low implementation complexity after analyzing and deriving the newly formulated game model in detail. Simulations results verify the performance of the proposed approaches in this paper.

Synchronized phasor measurement based Wide Area Monitoring and Control (WAMC) system is becoming a reality within international research and development both in academia and industry. Timely and accurate data with high resolutions holds great promise for more responsible and advanced grid control and operation. Currently, most of the research focuses on the different control schemes and applications. A relatively less addressed aspect is the dependency of the WAMC system on the performance of the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure, without whose support the projected functionalities of the WAMC systems will be not achieved. Possible delays brought by the complex data transfer and processing processes in WAMC systems are addressed in the first part of this paper. Thereafter, simulations where delayed Phasor measurements are fed to the Static Var Compensator (SVC) are conducted iteratively to detect its maximum tolerated delay. Furthermore, performance requirements for the centralized computation and control actuation are researched and analyzed based on simulation results. It also includes a study on feasibility of compensations using local signal based Power System Stablizers (PSS) in situations with much phasor data delay. The paper is concluded by suggesting ICT architecture for WAMC systems aiming to improve its robustness.

In the last decade wireless communications significantly improved, being widely used in various areas such as health, education, industry and research. Recently, the automobile industry is adopting wireless technologies in order to improve the services offered, such as safety, route planning and infotainment. In particular, Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) are being promoted to improve safety and provide content delivery on the road. In this paper we provide a performance evaluation to assess the viability of a content delivery framework for VANETs. In our experiments we vary several parameters, such as vehicular density, vehicular speed, and content demand rate under different environment conditions. We evaluate, from a multi-layer perspective, the impact they have on metrics such as delivery latency, throughput, and packet loss; in particular, we evaluate user satisfaction through the latency perceived at the application layer, and the network performance via the packet loss. Results show that the overall performance is improved when speed and vehicular density are relatively high compared to typical urban traffic patterns.

The existing power grid infrastructures in many countries are primarily based on technologies that have been developed as centralized systems in which power is generated at major power plants and distributed to consumers through transmission and distribution lines. In the recent decade, with the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, and smart electrical appliances, the centralized model may no longer hold, and the supply and demand for electricity become more dynamic. Moreover, the latest developed information and communication technologies (ICT) and power electronic technologies could enhance the efficiency and performance of power system operations. Recently, concerns with global warming have prompted many countries to announce research programs on smart grid, which is the transformation of the traditional electric power grid into an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly grid by the integration of ICT, power electronic, storage and control technologies. With the smart grid, there is an opportunity for a new operating paradigm that recognizes the changing structures of the power grid with renewable generation, and the high-resolution data, high speed communications, and high performance computation available with the advanced information infrastructure. A new operating paradigm, namely, risk-limiting dispatch, is proposed for the smart grid in this paper. In addition, we have identified the requirements of a communication infrastructure to support this new operating paradigm.
