Energy Beamforming for MIMO WIPT Relaying With Arbitrary Correlation

Transmit beamforming aided amplify-and-forward MIMO full-duplex relaying with limited dynamic range

In this paper we address the design of a relay-assisted communication system where two half-duplex (HD) users communicate with each other via the help of an amplify-and-forward (AF) and full-duplex (FD) relay node. We design joint user beamforming and relay transmit strategies to deal with the self-interference signal at the FD relay node. Our approach is to maximize the system sum rate via lin...

Energy Harvesting Enabled MIMO Relaying through Time Switching

This paper considers simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) for a multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) relay system. The relay is powered by harvesting energy from the source via time switching (TS) and utilizes the harvested energy to forward the information signal. Our aim is to maximize the rate of the system subject to the power constraints at both the source and relay...

Optimum beamforming for MIMO multicasting

This paper investigates the transmit (Tx) beamforming design to maximize the throughput of a multiple-input multiple-output multicast channel, where common information is sent from the base station to K users simultaneously. This so-called max-min fair beamforming problem is known to be NP-hard. When the base station is equipped with two Tx antennas, we prove that the original complex-valued be...

Technical Report: Outage Performance of Full-Duplex MIMO DF Relaying using Zero-Forcing Beamforming

In this paper, we deal with the performance analysis of full-duplex relaying in decode-&-forward cooperative networks with multiple-antenna terminals. More specifically, by analyzing the end-to-end statistics, we derive the accurate closed-form expressions of the end-to-end outage probability for both transmit and receive ZFBF scheme over Rayleigh fading environments. Some selected results show...
