Abstract:
PURPOSE: An apparatus and a method for communicating cooperatively using network coding in an uplink system comprised of a multiple relay device are provided to code and transmit transmission signals which need retransmission through a selected relay device among relay devices, thereby maximizing a diversity gain and facilitating adaptive communication due to a network change. CONSTITUTION: A signal receiving unit(113) receives a plurality of transmission signals from a plurality of transmitters(101). A request receiving unit(115) receives retransmission requests about some among the transmission signals. A transmitting unit(117) codes some transmission signals corresponding to the retransmission requests through a network and transmits the coded signals to a receiver.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An efficient resource assignment technique in a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system based on minimum mean square error-successive interference cancellation (MMSE-SIC) is provided to improve frequency efficiency and transmission reliability. CONSTITUTION: An effective channel vector is obtained from a subcarrier of user K by using a null space of a selected user group. A data transfer rate is obtained from the subcarrier of the user K by using the effective channel vector. Transmission power of the subcarrier, which is assigned by using a water-filling method, is obtained after assigning the subcarrier.
