Complexity Analysis of Double-Threshold Based Relay Selection in D2D Cooperative Network
Shamganth Kumarapandian, Martin James Sibley · Journal of Wireless Networking and Communications · 2018
In this paper, a novel dual-threshold based relay selection scheme and combining scheme for dual-hop differential amplify and forward cooperative D2D cooperative Cellular networks is proposed. Also, a novel combining scheme, Dual-Threshold MRC (DT-MRC) with differential AF modulation is proposed. Analysis of the number of path estimation and active branches is very much essential in order to determine the system complexity. Also the active branch determination provides the power savings of the proposed scheme as compared to the existing schemes. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme has a reduction in the average number of path estimation.
