Signal-Level Cooperative Spatial Multiplexing for Uplink Throughput Enhancement in MIMO Broadband Systems
Résumé
In this paper, we address the issue of throughputefficient half-duplex constrained relaying schemes for broadband uplink transmissions over multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels. We introduce a low complexity signal-level cooperative spatial multiplexing (CM) architecture that allows for the shortening of the relaying phase without resorting to any symbol detection or re-mapping at the relay side. Half-duplex latency is thereby reduced, resulting in a remarkable throughput gain compared to amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying scheme. Surprisingly, we show that CM strategy becomes more powerful in boosting uplink throughput as the relay approaches cell edge.
