Inter-relay interference cancellation for wireless multi-user multi-decode-and-forward relay networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a cooperative communication scheme with inter-relay interference (IRI) cancellation is proposed for wireless multi-user multi-decode-and-forward (DF) relay networks. The scheme is based on a DF half-duplex ...
Utilizing international design competitions for enhancing 21st century engineering skills: The experience of shell Eco-Marathon
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Nurturing design skills in students is in the heart of all engineering curricula. While academic courses and capstone activities inject the design process in students, involvement in practical design activities is believed ...
Purpose of the book and editorial perspectives
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2015 , Book chapter)
Engineering and engineering education play an essential role in the Middle East. Global debates regarding roles of engineering and required transformations in engineering education have been extensive during the past few ...
Advances in engineering education in the Middle East and North Africa: Current status, and future insights
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2015 , Book)
This book provides a collection of the latest advances in engineering education in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and sheds insights for future development. It is one of the first books to address the lack ...
Performance Analysis of Amplify-and-Forward Hybrid Satellite-Terrestrial Networks with Cochannel Interference
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper, we consider an amplify-and-forward hybrid satellite-terrestrial co-operative network in the presence of cochannel interference (CCI). More specifically, we assume that both the satellite-destination and the ...
Centralized-decentralized RB allocation based on genetic algorithm and coordination over X2 interface in LTE uplink
(
VDE Verlag GmbH
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present a method for resource block allocation for the LTE uplink system. It aims to minimize the inter-cell interference and maximize the channel capacity. The genetic algorithm is used to come up with ...
Performance analysis of cooperative communication system with feedback delay and channel estimation error
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the impact of feedback delay and channel estimation error (CEE) on the performance of wireless multi-user decode-and-forward (DF) relay systems in independent and non identically distributed ...
Effective area spectral efficiency for wireless communication networks with interference management
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper, we introduce a new metric, namely, effective area spectral efficiency (EASE), to quantify the spectral efficiency as well as the spatial properties of point-to-point transmission systems and decode and forward ...
Stability and delay analysis for cooperative relaying with multi-access transmission
(
Springer Verlag
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
We consider a cooperative relaying system with two source terminals, one full duplex relay, and a common destination. Each terminal has a local traffic queue while the relay has two relaying queues to store the relayed ...
Performance of Mixed RF/FSO with Variable Gain over Generalized Atmospheric Turbulence Channels
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper, we consider a free-space optical (FSO) communication scheme with the help of a variable gain relay where the links from the source to the relay are radio-frequency (RF) links while the links between the relay ...
