Different techniques have been proposed to improve transmission reliabilityn both physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers. Inspired by theulti-input multi-output (MIMO) system, cooperative transmission was introducedo obtain diversity gain without the complexity of using multi-antenna radios. Thisdditional gain, when being used properly, can improve transmission reliability oreduce power consumption.n cooperative transmission, neighbors of the source device, referred to as relays,orward the data frame received from the source device to the destination device. Tonable such cooperation, devices including the source, the relays, and the destinationust know (1) when to cooperate and (2) whom to cooperate with. To address thesessues, MAC-layer signaling and coordination among the three parties are needed.n this thesis, we design a new medium access control (MAC) protocol that sup-orts cooperative transmission. The new protocol enables devices to adapt trans-ission schemes (direct or cooperative) to dynamic wireless environments. With ourrotocol, the devices exchange the link information and perform relay selection — viaontention — in a fully distributed manner. In order to select the best relay, we alsontroduce a ”busy-tone” relay raking system. To further improve the performance, cross-layer optimization technique, namely adaptive modulation, is integrated intour protocol.e performed mathematical analysis and conducted extensive simulation in Opnetodeler to show the performance. The overall throughput improvement varies from0% to 20% in low-SNR environments. The results show that our protocol is a feasibleisolution and delivers considerable improvement even when taking into account allignaling overheads.ABSTRACT . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . iiIST OF TABLES . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . viIST OF FIGURES . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . viiHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.1 Related Works . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4.2 Outline . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7HAPTER 2 SYSTEM MODEL AND ASSUMPTIONS . . . . . . 8.1 PHY-Layer Consideration . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8.2 MAC-layer Consideration . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11.2.1 CSMA/CA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12.2.2 Virtual Carrier Sensing . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 13.2.3 RTS/CTS Handshake . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14HAPTER 3 DISTRIBUTED MAC PROTOCOL FOR COOPER-TIVE WIRELESS NETWORKS . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16.1 Exchange of Link Quality Information . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 17.2 Relay Selection . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18.3 Data Transmission with Adaptive Modulation . . . . . . . . . . . . 22.4 Retransmission Policy . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 24.5 Modified Virtual Carrier Sensing Mechanism . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25HAPTER 4 THROUGHPUT ANALYSIS OF THE PROPOSEDROTOCOL . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28.1 Basic Assumptions . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28.2 Throughput Analysis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29.2.1 SNR in direction transmission . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29.2.2 SNRs in cooperative transmission . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30.2.3 Throughput in direct transmission . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 32.2.4 Throughput in cooperative transmission using AF . . . . . . 33.2.5 Throughput in cooperative transmission using AF+DF . . . 36.3 Selection of Transmission Tactics . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 37.3.1 Busy tone pattern . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 40.4 Numerical analysis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 42.4.1 Impact of Amax and K . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 42.4.2 Impact of busy tones . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 44HAPTER 5 SIMULATIONS . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 46.1 Single Pair Transmission . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 46.1.1 Validation of throughput analysis . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 47.1.2 An Extreme Case . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 48.1.3 The Impact of Fading . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51.1.4 The Impact of Erroneous Control Frames . . . . . . . . . . . 54.2 Multiple Relays . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 55.2.1 The Impact of The Number of Relay Candidates . . . . . . . 56.2.2 The Impact of The Value of Amax . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 58.2.3 The Impact of Busy Tones . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 59.3 Network Simulation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 60HAPTER 6 CONCLUSIONS AND FUTURE WORK . . . . . . . 64.1 Conclusion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 64.2 Future Work . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 65EFERENCES . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 661598698 bytesapplication/pdfen-US合作式通訊媒介存取協定分集增益中繼者自適應調變分散式網路cooperative transmissionMAC protocoldiversity gainrelayadaptive modulationdistributed networksthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/188357/1/ntu-98-R96942119-1.pdf
