Symbol Error Probability Optimization of OFDM Bidirectional AF Relaying Systems
Dong Liang Qin, Tianqing Zhou · Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Informatics · 2023
This paper considers that two transceivers exchange orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals with the aid of multiple bidirectional amplify and forward (AF) relays. Unlike most researchers who care about sum rate maximization issues to improve transmission efficiency, we formulate a symbol error probability (SEP) minimization problem under total power constraint because high data rate may degrade SEP performance. A joint algorithm of power allocation and relay selection is proposed to study their impact on the SEP performance. The closed-form solution of power allocation is not a form of water filling widely used in the sum rate maximum problem. Both analytical and simulation results clearly demonstrate the superiority of our algorithm.
