Hybrid space-time diversity and spatial-multiplexing MIMO cooperative scheme for wireless communication systems
Daniel R. Furtado, Francisco M. C. Caldas, Walter C. Freitas · 2011
This paper aims to propose and evaluate the performance of hybrid cooperative transceiver schemes on mobile wireless networks. In such scenario with a relay node, the hybrid scheme is readily applicable as its structure is well divided into parallel layers. Thus, an efficient cooperative coding can occur by those following factors: use of layers previously defined in the hybrid scheme, known protocols of cooperation in a relay channel and techniques of pre- and post-processing at source and destination nodes, respectively.
