1 Introduction

Recently cooperative communication networks are known tohave significant potential in increasing network capacity andtransmission reliability In recent years cooperative networkshave attracted substantial interest from the wireless network-ing and communications research [1ndash13] The basic idea isthat intermediate relay nodes act as a virtual distributedantenna array to assist the source node in transmitting itsinformation to the destination node The amplify-and-for-ward (AF) and decode-and-forward (DF) are the mostfamous schemes for cooperative systems [14]

Space-time block code (STBC) [15 16] is an effectiveapproach to achieve spatial diversity for cooperative trans-missions Since the relay nodes are in different locationsand have different oscillators there may exist timing errorsTherefore it is difficult to design proper space-time codingschemes The transmission schemes which are based onorthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) areexploited for combating the loss of timing phase [2ndash5]In [4] a simple Alamouti scheme is proposed to achieve

cooperative diversity where only a few simple operationssuch as time-reversion and complex conjugation are requiredat the relay nodes the fast ML Alamouti decoding is used atthe destination node However this scheme is only useful forthe case of two relay nodes In [6 7] the clustered orthogonalspace-time block code (OSTBC) schemes for four or morerelay nodes are proposed by clustering the relay nodes Itis shown that limited performance improvement is achievedwhile the number of relay nodes increases

In [17ndash21] a new multidimensional modulation schemeis proposed to increase the modulation diversity It is feasibleto achieve full modulation diversity by applying optimumrotation to signal constellation The algebraic number theoryis introduced in [22] to construct amultidimensional rotationmatrix By properly selecting the algebraic number field agenerator matrix that guarantees full modulation diversityand maximizes the minimum product distance for precodedinformation symbols can be obtained

(CP) [23 24] to combat the timing errors The informationsymbols are precoded by amatrixmultiplication at the sourcenode Throughout the proper operation at the relay nodethe received signals hold the DAST block code structure oneach subcarrier hence it is convenient to decode data byusing ML decoding or fast sphere decoder It is assumed thatthe relay nodes do not have to know any information aboutthe channels but the destination node knows all channelinformation through training Therefore the relay nodes donot need to decode and demodulate signals received from thesource node Only a few simple signal processings are neededat the relay nodes

This paper is organized as follows In Section 2 the relaynetwork model is described and a new transmission schemeis proposed In Section 3 the algebraic number theory isintroduced and the optimal rotation constellation schemeis presented The PEP is analyzed with the optimal powerallocation in Section 4 Section 5 contains the simulationresults Finally the conclusions are given in Section 6

QAM constellation OFDM technique is used to combat thetime errors It is assumed that the number of subcarriers is119873 and the transmission delay of the signals from 119894th relaynode at the destination node is 120591

119895119896 119895 = 1 2 119877

119896 = 1 2 119873 Then we let 119904119895= [119904

where 119904 and 1199041015840 belong to an 119877-dimensional constellation

(QAM or PAM)The algebraic number theory was employedto construct a proper precoding rotation matrix 119872 whichmaximizes theminimumproduct distances in certain dimen-sionsThe diversity order is theminimumHamming distancebetween any two coordinate vectors of constellation points Itis emphasized that a rotation matrix constructed by algebraicnumber theory is a Vandermondematrix which can simplifythe encoding and reduce the computational complexity in asimilar way of fast Fourier transformation Furthermore thisalgebraic construction of rotations is useful for reduction ofpeak-to-mean envelope power ratio (PMEPR)

It can be considered that the algebraic constellation hasfull spatial diversity if the associated minimum productdistance119889min is strictly positive equivalently the componentsof vectors 119909 = 119872119904 and 1199091015840

119902 = 1 2 ) with fullmodulationdiversity we apply the canonical embedding to some totallycomplex cyclotomic number fields The reader can refer to[25 26] for more comprehensive details about cyclotomicnumber fields and canonical embedding

minimum product distance is a nonzero integer It is revealedthat 119889min is related to the special properties of algebraicnumber field when the full modulation diversity is obtainedIn fact the diversity product is 1 for the optimal cyclotomicrotation matrix no matter what the space-time code size andconstellation size are which have been proved in [26]

4 PEP Analysis and Optimal Power Allocation

The optimum power allocation between the source node andthe relay nodes is discussed in [10] to minimize the pair-wise error probability (PEP) which is well known to be animportant measure for performance analysis In this sectionwe focus on the high power regime and the upper boundof PEP and provide the theoretical bases for reducing theupper bound of PEP with the precoding matrix At first forsimplicityrsquos sake we rewrite (6) as follows

the rotated constellation symbols are transmitted over thediagonal channel matrix in space and time Since |119891120591119894

5 Simulation Results

In this section we present some simulated performance ofDAST codes forwireless asynchronous cooperative networksThe MATLAB 80 sumulation tool was used for the simu-lation (on a Core i7-3770 34GHz PC) The different valuesof the number of relays 119877 and total transmit power 119875 areconsidered We assume that the length of OFDM subcarriersis 119873 = 64 and the length of cyclic prefix ℓcp = 16 with thetotal bandwidth of 10MHz and the OFDM symbol durationis 119879

119904= 64 120583s To satisfy the conditions that the time delay

must be less than the CP length 120591119894is randomly chosen from

0 to 15 with the uniform distribution and 1205911is assumed

to be 0 for the first relay node The information symbol ismodulated by normalized 4-QAM We fix the total transmitpower 119875 which is measured in decibel Using the optimalpower allocation strategy the transmit power of the sourcenode is 1198752 and the relay nodes share the other power Theaverage SNR at the destination node can be calculated tobe 1198752

4(119875 + 1) When 119875 ≫ 1 the SNR becomes 1198754 Atthe destination node the ML decoding of the DAST blockcode can be implemented by the sphere decoder to obtainalmost the same performance at a moderate complexity Theperformances of the unrotated constellation for the relaynetwork and the DAST block code for the multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) system are given For the sake ofcomparison the performances of Alamouti code scheme [4]are also shown

In Figure 2 we show the decoding performance of thenetwork system equipped with two relay nodes Assume allthe systems have the same total transmit power and all thenodes in the relay network systems have the same power

constraint As expected we can see the performance for unro-tated constellation is poor For 119877 = 2 since the Alam-outi scheme is the unique complex orthogonal design at atransmission rate of 1 it seems hard for the DAST schemeto outperform it However there are some drawbacks forAlamouti scheme such that the relay nodes have to stackevery two OFDM symbols and then exchange the transmitorder of the two OFDM symbols which leads to one OFDMsymbol time slot delay The advantage of DAST scheme willbe immediate and significant when more relay nodes areemployed

Figures 3(a) and 3(b) show the decoding performance ofthe four-relay network systems and the MIMO system with 4transmit antennas and 1 receive antenna Figure 3(a) showsthe BER performances with respect to the total transmitpower Figure 3(b) shows the BER performances with respectto the receive SNR In the MIMO system the receive SNRis assumed to be 119875 We observe that the slopes of the BERcurves of the DAST scheme approache the slopes of the BERof the DAST MIMO systems when the total transmit power119875 or the receive SNR increases which indicates that the newscheme can achieve diversity degree of 4 We can see that thedistance between the curves of the MIMO system and DASTrelay system is large because the transmit antennas can fullycooperate in MIMO system However at the same receiveSNR the gap of the two curves is diminishing which canbe seen clearly in Figure 3(b) Since OSTBC design cannotachieve full transmission rate for more than two antennas itis not applicable for the system with more than 2 relay nodesTherefore the cluster Alamouti code method [5] with rate12 is used for the network with 4 relay nodes 16QAM isconsidered to maintain the same transmission rate We cansee that DAST scheme has a gain of about 3 dB at 10minus6 in

Figure 3(b) It should be noted that this gain will be enhancedwhen increasing the size of the constellation In addition thecluster Alamouti code scheme has one OFDM symbol timedelay to perform signal processing at the relay nodes

Finally the example for 119877 = 8 is given to show the BERperformance of the DAST scheme and the MIMO systemwith respect to the total transmit power in Figure 4 It also

achieves a diversity order similar to that of DAST MIMOsystems When more relay nodes are utilized the curvesdescendmuch faster at the high SNR regimeThis implies thebetter BER performance is achieved

6 Conclusions

In this paper we propose the use of DAST block codes forasynchronous cooperative relay networks OFDM techniqueis implemented at the source node and only +minus opera-tions are required at the relay nodes without decoding andtransmission delay By using this method the received signalsymbols at the destination node hold the STBC structure afterremoving CP and IFFT operationThis structure is useful fordecoding It can be considered efficient to adopt fast decodingalgorithms such as sphere decoder to maintain the MLdecoding performance in a polynomial time It is not requiredwith the transmitted signal symbols and channel informationat the relay nodes We analyze the PEP and observe that theproposed scheme is capable of achieving full spatial diversityfor high total transmit power Simulation results on theDASTscheme are demonstrated which verifies our results

For possible future works it would be interesting toinvestigate further of imperfect CSI In the existing works thechannels are assumed to be perfectly estimated However thechannel estimation errors are inevitable in practice and affectthe BER performance Therefore the investigation of impactof imperfect CSI on the proposed schemes would be ourfurther work Moreover the symbol time offset and carrierfrequency offset in OFDM technique can also be explored

(CP) [23 24] to combat the timing errors The informationsymbols are precoded by amatrixmultiplication at the sourcenode Throughout the proper operation at the relay nodethe received signals hold the DAST block code structure oneach subcarrier hence it is convenient to decode data byusing ML decoding or fast sphere decoder It is assumed thatthe relay nodes do not have to know any information aboutthe channels but the destination node knows all channelinformation through training Therefore the relay nodes donot need to decode and demodulate signals received from thesource node Only a few simple signal processings are neededat the relay nodes

This paper is organized as follows In Section 2 the relaynetwork model is described and a new transmission schemeis proposed In Section 3 the algebraic number theory isintroduced and the optimal rotation constellation schemeis presented The PEP is analyzed with the optimal powerallocation in Section 4 Section 5 contains the simulationresults Finally the conclusions are given in Section 6

119902 119902 = 1 2 ) relay nodes as

shown in Figure 1 There is only one antenna at every nodeWe denote the average signal energy 119864

119904= 1 by a normalizd

QAM constellation OFDM technique is used to combat thetime errors It is assumed that the number of subcarriers is119873 and the transmission delay of the signals from 119894th relaynode at the destination node is 120591

119894 which is a multiple of

119895119896 119895 = 1 2 119877

119896 = 1 2 119873 Then we let 119904119895= [119904

We can find that it holds the structure similar to the Had-amard matrix Apart from the orthogonal STBC schemewhich is required to switch the OFDM symbols and hasto wait to start process and transmit until the next severalOFDM symbols arrive at the relay nodes [4 5] in our pro-posed scheme the relay nodes can process and broadcastthe received signals immediately without waiting the other

where 119904 and 1199041015840 belong to an 119877-dimensional constellation

(QAM or PAM)The algebraic number theory was employedto construct a proper precoding rotation matrix 119872 whichmaximizes theminimumproduct distances in certain dimen-sionsThe diversity order is theminimumHamming distancebetween any two coordinate vectors of constellation points Itis emphasized that a rotation matrix constructed by algebraicnumber theory is a Vandermondematrix which can simplifythe encoding and reduce the computational complexity in asimilar way of fast Fourier transformation Furthermore thisalgebraic construction of rotations is useful for reduction ofpeak-to-mean envelope power ratio (PMEPR)

It can be considered that the algebraic constellation hasfull spatial diversity if the associated minimum productdistance119889min is strictly positive equivalently the componentsof vectors 119909 = 119872119904 and 1199091015840

= 1198721199041015840 (with 119904 = 119904

1015840) in the rotatedconstellation are all different To construct a precodingmatrix119872 of dimension119877 (119877 = 2119902

119902 = 1 2 ) with fullmodulationdiversity we apply the canonical embedding to some totallycomplex cyclotomic number fields The reader can refer to[25 26] for more comprehensive details about cyclotomicnumber fields and canonical embedding

minimum product distance is a nonzero integer It is revealedthat 119889min is related to the special properties of algebraicnumber field when the full modulation diversity is obtainedIn fact the diversity product is 1 for the optimal cyclotomicrotation matrix no matter what the space-time code size andconstellation size are which have been proved in [26]

5 Simulation Results

In this section we present some simulated performance ofDAST codes forwireless asynchronous cooperative networksThe MATLAB 80 sumulation tool was used for the simu-lation (on a Core i7-3770 34GHz PC) The different valuesof the number of relays 119877 and total transmit power 119875 areconsidered We assume that the length of OFDM subcarriersis 119873 = 64 and the length of cyclic prefix ℓcp = 16 with thetotal bandwidth of 10MHz and the OFDM symbol durationis 119879

119904= 64 120583s To satisfy the conditions that the time delay

must be less than the CP length 120591119894is randomly chosen from

0 to 15 with the uniform distribution and 1205911is assumed

to be 0 for the first relay node The information symbol ismodulated by normalized 4-QAM We fix the total transmitpower 119875 which is measured in decibel Using the optimalpower allocation strategy the transmit power of the sourcenode is 1198752 and the relay nodes share the other power Theaverage SNR at the destination node can be calculated tobe 1198752

4(119875 + 1) When 119875 ≫ 1 the SNR becomes 1198754 Atthe destination node the ML decoding of the DAST blockcode can be implemented by the sphere decoder to obtainalmost the same performance at a moderate complexity Theperformances of the unrotated constellation for the relaynetwork and the DAST block code for the multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) system are given For the sake ofcomparison the performances of Alamouti code scheme [4]are also shown

In Figure 2 we show the decoding performance of thenetwork system equipped with two relay nodes Assume allthe systems have the same total transmit power and all thenodes in the relay network systems have the same power

constraint As expected we can see the performance for unro-tated constellation is poor For 119877 = 2 since the Alam-outi scheme is the unique complex orthogonal design at atransmission rate of 1 it seems hard for the DAST schemeto outperform it However there are some drawbacks forAlamouti scheme such that the relay nodes have to stackevery two OFDM symbols and then exchange the transmitorder of the two OFDM symbols which leads to one OFDMsymbol time slot delay The advantage of DAST scheme willbe immediate and significant when more relay nodes areemployed

Figures 3(a) and 3(b) show the decoding performance ofthe four-relay network systems and the MIMO system with 4transmit antennas and 1 receive antenna Figure 3(a) showsthe BER performances with respect to the total transmitpower Figure 3(b) shows the BER performances with respectto the receive SNR In the MIMO system the receive SNRis assumed to be 119875 We observe that the slopes of the BERcurves of the DAST scheme approache the slopes of the BERof the DAST MIMO systems when the total transmit power119875 or the receive SNR increases which indicates that the newscheme can achieve diversity degree of 4 We can see that thedistance between the curves of the MIMO system and DASTrelay system is large because the transmit antennas can fullycooperate in MIMO system However at the same receiveSNR the gap of the two curves is diminishing which canbe seen clearly in Figure 3(b) Since OSTBC design cannotachieve full transmission rate for more than two antennas itis not applicable for the system with more than 2 relay nodesTherefore the cluster Alamouti code method [5] with rate12 is used for the network with 4 relay nodes 16QAM isconsidered to maintain the same transmission rate We cansee that DAST scheme has a gain of about 3 dB at 10minus6 in

Figure 3(b) It should be noted that this gain will be enhancedwhen increasing the size of the constellation In addition thecluster Alamouti code scheme has one OFDM symbol timedelay to perform signal processing at the relay nodes

Finally the example for 119877 = 8 is given to show the BERperformance of the DAST scheme and the MIMO systemwith respect to the total transmit power in Figure 4 It also

achieves a diversity order similar to that of DAST MIMOsystems When more relay nodes are utilized the curvesdescendmuch faster at the high SNR regimeThis implies thebetter BER performance is achieved

6 Conclusions

In this paper we propose the use of DAST block codes forasynchronous cooperative relay networks OFDM techniqueis implemented at the source node and only +minus opera-tions are required at the relay nodes without decoding andtransmission delay By using this method the received signalsymbols at the destination node hold the STBC structure afterremoving CP and IFFT operationThis structure is useful fordecoding It can be considered efficient to adopt fast decodingalgorithms such as sphere decoder to maintain the MLdecoding performance in a polynomial time It is not requiredwith the transmitted signal symbols and channel informationat the relay nodes We analyze the PEP and observe that theproposed scheme is capable of achieving full spatial diversityfor high total transmit power Simulation results on theDASTscheme are demonstrated which verifies our results

For possible future works it would be interesting toinvestigate further of imperfect CSI In the existing works thechannels are assumed to be perfectly estimated However thechannel estimation errors are inevitable in practice and affectthe BER performance Therefore the investigation of impactof imperfect CSI on the proposed schemes would be ourfurther work Moreover the symbol time offset and carrierfrequency offset in OFDM technique can also be explored

(QAM or PAM)The algebraic number theory was employedto construct a proper precoding rotation matrix 119872 whichmaximizes theminimumproduct distances in certain dimen-sionsThe diversity order is theminimumHamming distancebetween any two coordinate vectors of constellation points Itis emphasized that a rotation matrix constructed by algebraicnumber theory is a Vandermondematrix which can simplifythe encoding and reduce the computational complexity in asimilar way of fast Fourier transformation Furthermore thisalgebraic construction of rotations is useful for reduction ofpeak-to-mean envelope power ratio (PMEPR)

It can be considered that the algebraic constellation hasfull spatial diversity if the associated minimum productdistance119889min is strictly positive equivalently the componentsof vectors 119909 = 119872119904 and 1199091015840

119902 = 1 2 ) with fullmodulationdiversity we apply the canonical embedding to some totallycomplex cyclotomic number fields The reader can refer to[25 26] for more comprehensive details about cyclotomicnumber fields and canonical embedding

4 PEP Analysis and Optimal Power Allocation

The optimum power allocation between the source node andthe relay nodes is discussed in [10] to minimize the pair-wise error probability (PEP) which is well known to be animportant measure for performance analysis In this sectionwe focus on the high power regime and the upper boundof PEP and provide the theoretical bases for reducing theupper bound of PEP with the precoding matrix At first forsimplicityrsquos sake we rewrite (6) as follows

5 Simulation Results

In this section we present some simulated performance ofDAST codes forwireless asynchronous cooperative networksThe MATLAB 80 sumulation tool was used for the simu-lation (on a Core i7-3770 34GHz PC) The different valuesof the number of relays 119877 and total transmit power 119875 areconsidered We assume that the length of OFDM subcarriersis 119873 = 64 and the length of cyclic prefix ℓcp = 16 with thetotal bandwidth of 10MHz and the OFDM symbol durationis 119879

119904= 64 120583s To satisfy the conditions that the time delay

must be less than the CP length 120591119894is randomly chosen from

0 to 15 with the uniform distribution and 1205911is assumed

to be 0 for the first relay node The information symbol ismodulated by normalized 4-QAM We fix the total transmitpower 119875 which is measured in decibel Using the optimalpower allocation strategy the transmit power of the sourcenode is 1198752 and the relay nodes share the other power Theaverage SNR at the destination node can be calculated tobe 1198752

4(119875 + 1) When 119875 ≫ 1 the SNR becomes 1198754 Atthe destination node the ML decoding of the DAST blockcode can be implemented by the sphere decoder to obtainalmost the same performance at a moderate complexity Theperformances of the unrotated constellation for the relaynetwork and the DAST block code for the multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) system are given For the sake ofcomparison the performances of Alamouti code scheme [4]are also shown

In Figure 2 we show the decoding performance of thenetwork system equipped with two relay nodes Assume allthe systems have the same total transmit power and all thenodes in the relay network systems have the same power

constraint As expected we can see the performance for unro-tated constellation is poor For 119877 = 2 since the Alam-outi scheme is the unique complex orthogonal design at atransmission rate of 1 it seems hard for the DAST schemeto outperform it However there are some drawbacks forAlamouti scheme such that the relay nodes have to stackevery two OFDM symbols and then exchange the transmitorder of the two OFDM symbols which leads to one OFDMsymbol time slot delay The advantage of DAST scheme willbe immediate and significant when more relay nodes areemployed

Figures 3(a) and 3(b) show the decoding performance ofthe four-relay network systems and the MIMO system with 4transmit antennas and 1 receive antenna Figure 3(a) showsthe BER performances with respect to the total transmitpower Figure 3(b) shows the BER performances with respectto the receive SNR In the MIMO system the receive SNRis assumed to be 119875 We observe that the slopes of the BERcurves of the DAST scheme approache the slopes of the BERof the DAST MIMO systems when the total transmit power119875 or the receive SNR increases which indicates that the newscheme can achieve diversity degree of 4 We can see that thedistance between the curves of the MIMO system and DASTrelay system is large because the transmit antennas can fullycooperate in MIMO system However at the same receiveSNR the gap of the two curves is diminishing which canbe seen clearly in Figure 3(b) Since OSTBC design cannotachieve full transmission rate for more than two antennas itis not applicable for the system with more than 2 relay nodesTherefore the cluster Alamouti code method [5] with rate12 is used for the network with 4 relay nodes 16QAM isconsidered to maintain the same transmission rate We cansee that DAST scheme has a gain of about 3 dB at 10minus6 in

Figure 3(b) It should be noted that this gain will be enhancedwhen increasing the size of the constellation In addition thecluster Alamouti code scheme has one OFDM symbol timedelay to perform signal processing at the relay nodes

Finally the example for 119877 = 8 is given to show the BERperformance of the DAST scheme and the MIMO systemwith respect to the total transmit power in Figure 4 It also

achieves a diversity order similar to that of DAST MIMOsystems When more relay nodes are utilized the curvesdescendmuch faster at the high SNR regimeThis implies thebetter BER performance is achieved

6 Conclusions

In this paper we propose the use of DAST block codes forasynchronous cooperative relay networks OFDM techniqueis implemented at the source node and only +minus opera-tions are required at the relay nodes without decoding andtransmission delay By using this method the received signalsymbols at the destination node hold the STBC structure afterremoving CP and IFFT operationThis structure is useful fordecoding It can be considered efficient to adopt fast decodingalgorithms such as sphere decoder to maintain the MLdecoding performance in a polynomial time It is not requiredwith the transmitted signal symbols and channel informationat the relay nodes We analyze the PEP and observe that theproposed scheme is capable of achieving full spatial diversityfor high total transmit power Simulation results on theDASTscheme are demonstrated which verifies our results

For possible future works it would be interesting toinvestigate further of imperfect CSI In the existing works thechannels are assumed to be perfectly estimated However thechannel estimation errors are inevitable in practice and affectthe BER performance Therefore the investigation of impactof imperfect CSI on the proposed schemes would be ourfurther work Moreover the symbol time offset and carrierfrequency offset in OFDM technique can also be explored

4 PEP Analysis and Optimal Power Allocation

The optimum power allocation between the source node andthe relay nodes is discussed in [10] to minimize the pair-wise error probability (PEP) which is well known to be animportant measure for performance analysis In this sectionwe focus on the high power regime and the upper boundof PEP and provide the theoretical bases for reducing theupper bound of PEP with the precoding matrix At first forsimplicityrsquos sake we rewrite (6) as follows

119911119896= 120582radic119875

1119860119872119904

119896+ 119908

where 119860 = diag((119891120591

119878)(119891120591

119896∘ 119891) + 119908

119896 The expression (15) implies that equivalently

the rotated constellation symbols are transmitted over thediagonal channel matrix in space and time Since |119891120591119894

119896| =

1 for any 119894 it is obvious to see that 1199081015840

119896is an independent

Gaussian random vector so that we can obtain119864(1199081015840

119896) = 0 and

119896 respectively When 119877 goes to infinity by the law of large

numbers it shows that (1119877)sum119877

119894=1|119891

119894|2 converges to 1 since the

variance ofsum119877

119877 It is also implied that the fading has little effect when 119877 islargeWe assume the total transmit power in thewhole systemis 119875 per symbol transmission then we have 119875 = 119875

It is not hard to see that the probability can be minimizedwhen 119875

2= 1198752119877 that is it is optimal to allocate

half of the total power to the transmit node and the otherhalf to the relay nodes It is significant that every relay nodeonly consumes a little amount of power to contribute to thetransmission

To obtain the upper bound of PEP we have to computethe expectation over ℎ 119891 Note that 119867 = 119865

5 Simulation Results

In this section we present some simulated performance ofDAST codes forwireless asynchronous cooperative networksThe MATLAB 80 sumulation tool was used for the simu-lation (on a Core i7-3770 34GHz PC) The different valuesof the number of relays 119877 and total transmit power 119875 areconsidered We assume that the length of OFDM subcarriersis 119873 = 64 and the length of cyclic prefix ℓcp = 16 with thetotal bandwidth of 10MHz and the OFDM symbol durationis 119879

119904= 64 120583s To satisfy the conditions that the time delay

must be less than the CP length 120591119894is randomly chosen from

0 to 15 with the uniform distribution and 1205911is assumed

to be 0 for the first relay node The information symbol ismodulated by normalized 4-QAM We fix the total transmitpower 119875 which is measured in decibel Using the optimalpower allocation strategy the transmit power of the sourcenode is 1198752 and the relay nodes share the other power Theaverage SNR at the destination node can be calculated tobe 1198752

4(119875 + 1) When 119875 ≫ 1 the SNR becomes 1198754 Atthe destination node the ML decoding of the DAST blockcode can be implemented by the sphere decoder to obtainalmost the same performance at a moderate complexity Theperformances of the unrotated constellation for the relaynetwork and the DAST block code for the multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) system are given For the sake ofcomparison the performances of Alamouti code scheme [4]are also shown

In Figure 2 we show the decoding performance of thenetwork system equipped with two relay nodes Assume allthe systems have the same total transmit power and all thenodes in the relay network systems have the same power

Figure 2 BER comparison of relay network with 119877 = 2

constraint As expected we can see the performance for unro-tated constellation is poor For 119877 = 2 since the Alam-outi scheme is the unique complex orthogonal design at atransmission rate of 1 it seems hard for the DAST schemeto outperform it However there are some drawbacks forAlamouti scheme such that the relay nodes have to stackevery two OFDM symbols and then exchange the transmitorder of the two OFDM symbols which leads to one OFDMsymbol time slot delay The advantage of DAST scheme willbe immediate and significant when more relay nodes areemployed

Figures 3(a) and 3(b) show the decoding performance ofthe four-relay network systems and the MIMO system with 4transmit antennas and 1 receive antenna Figure 3(a) showsthe BER performances with respect to the total transmitpower Figure 3(b) shows the BER performances with respectto the receive SNR In the MIMO system the receive SNRis assumed to be 119875 We observe that the slopes of the BERcurves of the DAST scheme approache the slopes of the BERof the DAST MIMO systems when the total transmit power119875 or the receive SNR increases which indicates that the newscheme can achieve diversity degree of 4 We can see that thedistance between the curves of the MIMO system and DASTrelay system is large because the transmit antennas can fullycooperate in MIMO system However at the same receiveSNR the gap of the two curves is diminishing which canbe seen clearly in Figure 3(b) Since OSTBC design cannotachieve full transmission rate for more than two antennas itis not applicable for the system with more than 2 relay nodesTherefore the cluster Alamouti code method [5] with rate12 is used for the network with 4 relay nodes 16QAM isconsidered to maintain the same transmission rate We cansee that DAST scheme has a gain of about 3 dB at 10minus6 in

Figure 3(b) It should be noted that this gain will be enhancedwhen increasing the size of the constellation In addition thecluster Alamouti code scheme has one OFDM symbol timedelay to perform signal processing at the relay nodes

Finally the example for 119877 = 8 is given to show the BERperformance of the DAST scheme and the MIMO systemwith respect to the total transmit power in Figure 4 It also

achieves a diversity order similar to that of DAST MIMOsystems When more relay nodes are utilized the curvesdescendmuch faster at the high SNR regimeThis implies thebetter BER performance is achieved

6 Conclusions

In this paper we propose the use of DAST block codes forasynchronous cooperative relay networks OFDM techniqueis implemented at the source node and only +minus opera-tions are required at the relay nodes without decoding andtransmission delay By using this method the received signalsymbols at the destination node hold the STBC structure afterremoving CP and IFFT operationThis structure is useful fordecoding It can be considered efficient to adopt fast decodingalgorithms such as sphere decoder to maintain the MLdecoding performance in a polynomial time It is not requiredwith the transmitted signal symbols and channel informationat the relay nodes We analyze the PEP and observe that theproposed scheme is capable of achieving full spatial diversityfor high total transmit power Simulation results on theDASTscheme are demonstrated which verifies our results

For possible future works it would be interesting toinvestigate further of imperfect CSI In the existing works thechannels are assumed to be perfectly estimated However thechannel estimation errors are inevitable in practice and affectthe BER performance Therefore the investigation of impactof imperfect CSI on the proposed schemes would be ourfurther work Moreover the symbol time offset and carrierfrequency offset in OFDM technique can also be explored

5 Simulation Results

In this section we present some simulated performance ofDAST codes forwireless asynchronous cooperative networksThe MATLAB 80 sumulation tool was used for the simu-lation (on a Core i7-3770 34GHz PC) The different valuesof the number of relays 119877 and total transmit power 119875 areconsidered We assume that the length of OFDM subcarriersis 119873 = 64 and the length of cyclic prefix ℓcp = 16 with thetotal bandwidth of 10MHz and the OFDM symbol durationis 119879

119904= 64 120583s To satisfy the conditions that the time delay

must be less than the CP length 120591119894is randomly chosen from

0 to 15 with the uniform distribution and 1205911is assumed

to be 0 for the first relay node The information symbol ismodulated by normalized 4-QAM We fix the total transmitpower 119875 which is measured in decibel Using the optimalpower allocation strategy the transmit power of the sourcenode is 1198752 and the relay nodes share the other power Theaverage SNR at the destination node can be calculated tobe 1198752

4(119875 + 1) When 119875 ≫ 1 the SNR becomes 1198754 Atthe destination node the ML decoding of the DAST blockcode can be implemented by the sphere decoder to obtainalmost the same performance at a moderate complexity Theperformances of the unrotated constellation for the relaynetwork and the DAST block code for the multiple-inputmultiple-output (MIMO) system are given For the sake ofcomparison the performances of Alamouti code scheme [4]are also shown

In Figure 2 we show the decoding performance of thenetwork system equipped with two relay nodes Assume allthe systems have the same total transmit power and all thenodes in the relay network systems have the same power

constraint As expected we can see the performance for unro-tated constellation is poor For 119877 = 2 since the Alam-outi scheme is the unique complex orthogonal design at atransmission rate of 1 it seems hard for the DAST schemeto outperform it However there are some drawbacks forAlamouti scheme such that the relay nodes have to stackevery two OFDM symbols and then exchange the transmitorder of the two OFDM symbols which leads to one OFDMsymbol time slot delay The advantage of DAST scheme willbe immediate and significant when more relay nodes areemployed

Figures 3(a) and 3(b) show the decoding performance ofthe four-relay network systems and the MIMO system with 4transmit antennas and 1 receive antenna Figure 3(a) showsthe BER performances with respect to the total transmitpower Figure 3(b) shows the BER performances with respectto the receive SNR In the MIMO system the receive SNRis assumed to be 119875 We observe that the slopes of the BERcurves of the DAST scheme approache the slopes of the BERof the DAST MIMO systems when the total transmit power119875 or the receive SNR increases which indicates that the newscheme can achieve diversity degree of 4 We can see that thedistance between the curves of the MIMO system and DASTrelay system is large because the transmit antennas can fullycooperate in MIMO system However at the same receiveSNR the gap of the two curves is diminishing which canbe seen clearly in Figure 3(b) Since OSTBC design cannotachieve full transmission rate for more than two antennas itis not applicable for the system with more than 2 relay nodesTherefore the cluster Alamouti code method [5] with rate12 is used for the network with 4 relay nodes 16QAM isconsidered to maintain the same transmission rate We cansee that DAST scheme has a gain of about 3 dB at 10minus6 in
