Synchronization issues in relay-aided cooperative mimo networks

Synchronization issues in relay-aided cooperative mimo networks
In this article, we address some of the key design issues of relay-aided cooperative noncoherent MIMO downlink synchronization schemes conceived for communicating over multi-path fading channels. We demonstrate that an explicit relationship exists between the achievable timing acquisition performance and the schemes employed by a multihop aided initial synchronization procedure, which is capable of improving the cellular coverage. We conclude by discussing the relationships between the factors either beneficially or detrimentally affecting the achievable performance as well as providing guidelines for designing relay-aided cooperative non-coherent MIMO aided schemes.

Abstract

In this article, we address some of the key design issues of relay-aided cooperative noncoherent MIMO downlink synchronization schemes conceived for communicating over multi-path fading channels. We demonstrate that an explicit relationship exists between the achievable timing acquisition performance and the schemes employed by a multihop aided initial synchronization procedure, which is capable of improving the cellular coverage. We conclude by discussing the relationships between the factors either beneficially or detrimentally affecting the achievable performance as well as providing guidelines for designing relay-aided cooperative non-coherent MIMO aided schemes.
