The research challenges to enhance the throughput of communication networks revealed the concept of network coding which is based on the idea of coding at packet level. The bi-directional relay channel in which two user terminals exchange independent information with the help of a relay terminal is among the prominent applications of network coding in wireless cooperative communications. In this paper, maximum likelihood (ML) performance analysis of digital relaying based bi-directional communication is presented. The three stage communication scenario is considered where the first and second stages are allotted to the transmissions of the users and after demodulation the relay broadcasts the network encoded packet obtained by a bit-wise XOR operation to the users in the third stage. The average bit error rate of this scheme with ML detection is derived for Rayleigh fading channels under noncoherent BFSK and coherent BPSK signaling. Simulation results are also presented to validate the theoretical analysis. Analytical and simulation results show that digital relaying based three stage bi-directional communication scheme with ML detection not only outperforms the noncooperative system that involves direct transmissions between user terminals but also prevents the diversity level reduction due to error propagation.

Cognitive-Node Architecture and a Deployment Strategy for the Future WSNs
Al-Turjman, Fadi (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-10-01)
The advent of sensing and communication technologies represents the next step in the evolution of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and future applications. Future WSNs systems demand that connected devices could be able to work autonomously, while surfing on-line generated data and process them for self-decision making. Accordingly, we propose a cognitive Information-Centric Sensor Network (ICSN) framework. The fundamentals of cognition in ICSN can be recognized as a promising direction in addressing opportu...

Yıldız, Hüsnü; Cenk, Murat; Onur, Ertan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-11-01)
Securing Internet of Things (IoT) applications that collect and transport sensitive data by guaranteeing authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality is a critical challenge. Reducing computation and communication overhead of security functions is also a key concern since a large number of constrained devices may take place in such applications. Our main focus in this paper is group authentication and key management in IoT. The existing group authentication and key management protocols in the literature per...

In this paper, we propose a framework for data delivery in nano-scale networks, where numerous wireless sensors are distributed on a human body, small object, tiny plant root, etc. Our framework caters for green energy-efficient applications in the Internet of Nano Things (IoNT) where data is relayed via nano-routers from a multifarious nanonodes towards a gateway connected to a large-scale network such as the Internet. We consider the entire network energy while choosing the next hop for our routed packets...
Handoff performance improvement with latency reduction in next generation wireless networks
Akan, OB; Baykal, Buyurman (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-05-01)
The next generation (NG) wireless networks are expected to provide mobile users with the real-time multimedia services. High sensitivity to time constraints like delay and jitter is one of the important characteristics of the multimedia traffic. In order to maintain a certain quality of service (QoS) level, the handoff latency should be minimized. Furthermore, if the new cell is not ready at the actual handoff time, the handoff call may be even forced terminated. Hence, the handoff preparation latency direc...
Transmit Precoding for Flat-Fading MIMO Multiuser Systems With Maximum Ratio Combining Receivers
Coskun, Adem; Candan, Çağatay (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-02-01)
We examine the application of transmit precoding in multiuser multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) communication systems with maximum ratio combining (MRC) receivers. In many multiuser applications, the maximum-likelihood or minimum mean-square error (MMSE) receivers can be prohibitive to implement due to their high implementation complexity. We examine the performance of the system with simple MRC receivers and carefully selected precoders, which are designed to compensate the lack of high-complexity receivers,...
