Relay channel
y Origin can be traced back to Capacity theorems for the relaychannel by T Cover and AE Gamal.
y Found the theoretical upper limit of the achievable data rateof a channel with a helper node called relay.
y Relay has found its utility in modern communication systems
y Relays will manifest themselves as a reality in the IEEE802.16j standard.
y This is still under evolution.
y Motivation was to study the transformation of the relayconcepts and research results in this area into a practicalstandard implemented by a system

Why use a relay?
y
Transmission at higher frequencies is more vulnerable to nonLOS conditions.
y The transmission power required for high data rates at large
distances is very high
y
Increasing the base station density is one optiony A relay acts as a helper node to increase coverage and
throughput
y Relay is connected to the base station through wireless
channel.y Relays are much closer to the mobile stations than the base
station, hence high data rates are possible.
y Mobile stations can transmit at lower power

The concept of relay
Base Station Relay Station
Backhaul/Wired
network
y RS will typically cover a region up to 300 miles in diameter
and transmit at lower power level than BSy Relays do not have wired connection to backhaul
y For two hop relaying, transmission occurs in two phases
y Cooperative diversity is additional advantage of relaying.

Relay Usage Scenarios
1) Fixed Infrastructure: To improve coverage in shadow areas
and increase throughput due to LOS communication.
2) In-Building Coverage: To fill the coverage hole inside the
building3) Temporary Coverage: Stadiums or gatherings of people
during an event. Also temporary replacement to a damaged
relay.
4) Coverage on mobile vehicle: Inside trains and buses. Acomplex relay is required that can handle quick handoffs

Relaying Techniques
y Amplify and Forward(AF) : The RS does not decode thereceived bits. It simply forwards the received signal afteramplifying it. Hence it also amplifies noise. The two phasesneed to be of the same duration.
y
Decode and forward(DF): The RS decodes the signal andperforms error correction. The decoded data is encodedusing the same or different codebook before transmitting tothe destination. The two phases need not be of sameduration.
y Compress and forward(CF): The relay compresses thereceived signal by usingWyner-Ziv lossy source coding andforwards it to the destination.

Relaying Techniques
y DF performs well only when the channel quality between BS
and the RS is good
y Only advantage of AF is that it is computationally less
intensive at the relay.y CF technique performs better than direct transmission in all
channel conditions even if channel between BS and RS is
degraded.
y
CF is computationally intensive.y CF is not considered forWimax relaying

Cooperative Diversity
y Multiple paths created by use of relay can be used to exploitspatial diversity
y Antennas are distributed between the BS and RS
y Three ways of achieving diversity: Transmit, Receive and
MIMO

Coverage and Throughput Improvement with relays
y System Model:
1) Single cell with BS in the center and Tx Power of 27.3 dB
2) 4 equi-spaced relays at distance of 10km from BS and
transmit power 20.3 dB
3) Path Loss Exponent 3.5
4) Additive Noise Power -130 dB
5) Adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) is employed
which means that the transmitter chooses a suitable
modulation scheme and coding rate based upon theinstantaneous value of SNR.

Comparative Study of Cooperative Diversity
Schemes
y Following different schemes were tried out
1) No relaying
2) Simple relaying without cooperative diversity: Two phases
can use different AMC. Since RS is placed close to BS wecan have 64QAM 5/6 AMC for BS to RS channel
1) Tx_Amplify_Forward Diversity: Two phases use sameAMC

Comparative Study of Cooperative Diversity
Schemes
DF scheme performs better than AF scheme since RS is placed close to the BS.
Tx diversity seems to perform better than Rx diversity.
However in Rx diversity the BS does not transmit to the MS during the second phase.
Instead it can schedule some other users in that time. Advantage of Rx Diversity will be
seen when we do network simulations

Relay selection algorithm for 802.16jy Network Entry for a RS and MS are almost similar
yBoth try to identify the best RS to connect to
y Each BS and RS periodically transmit UCD (Uplink ChannelDescriptor)
y Choice of relay in multihop scenario is difficult
y Assumption (802.16j): Every RS or MS is served by only a single
RS.

Algorithmy Consider the algorithm proposed in S. Ann, K.G. Lee, and H.S.
Kim "A Path Selection Method in IEEE 802.16j Mobile Multi-hopRelay Networks"
y Three new parameters to be added in the UCD:
1) Thrr : Minimum of the throughput among all links connecting the
RS to BS.2) BWr: Minimum of the BW of all the relays in the path including
the BS. Gives the current utilization of the relay path
3) HPr : Hop count from the RS to the serving BS
The instantaneous values of the parameters get modified
periodically. Information propagates via the UCD

Network Entry Procedure
y The network entry procedure is started with the RS that is closestto the BS and ends at one that is farthest.
1. PHY tries to get course synchronization with the network
2. MAC attempts to acquire channel information and networkparameters.
3. It builds up a physical neighbor list and stores the relay pathparameters sent from neighbor RSs.
4. Then for each neighboring relay station it calculates its suitabilityas:
S= Thrr* BW
r/ HP
r5. It then chooses the RS or BS with maximum value of S.

The BW associated with all RS and BS is assumed to be one i.e. full BW is
available.
Each RS/MS checks for RS/BS within 35 km of its radius.
