Abstract

This paper develops an amplify-and-forward relaying technique for multiuser wireless cooperative networks under frequency-selective block-fading. Single-carrier frequency division multiple-access with frequency-domain equalization technique is employed at both the relay and destination to combat the inter-block and inter-symbol interference caused by multipath propagation. With the assumption that the full channel state information (CSI) is available at the destination, the relay only knows the uplink channels while no CSI is available at the sources, two power allocation schemes are obtained: (i) to minimize the total transmit power at the relay while maintaining the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) for each user at the destination above a certain level, and (ii) to maximize the worst SINR among all the users subject to a constraint on total relay transmit power. Analysis and simulation results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.
