A hybrid TDMA-MAC cooperative relaying scheme: Stability and delay analysis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
We consider a cooperative relaying system with any number of source terminals, one shared relay, and a common destination. We assume a slotted time division multiple access (TDMA) framework in which each source terminal ...
Sparsity-aware narrowband interference mitigation and subcarriers selection in OFDM-based cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the performance of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing overlay cognitive radio network with subcarrier selection schemes is investigated. We propose three subcarrier selection techniques that reduce ...
