In this paper, we consider a two-hop communication system with an amplify-and-forward (AF) relay under channel estimation errors. According to the channel quality of the link between the base station (BS) and the relay, we investigate two typical relay scenarios. We study the capacity performance for both In-Band Full-Duplex (IBFD) and Half-Duplex (HD) transmission modes. Moreover, we consider two operation modes of the user equipment (UE) for each scenario. Closed-form expressions of ergodic capacities with channel estimation errors are obtained for scenario-1. And we derive accurate approximations of ergodic capacities for scenario-2. Numerical experiments are conducted to verify the analytical results and show that our theoretical derivations are perfectly matched with the simulations. We show that with practical signal-to-noise ratio values and effective interference cancellation techniques, IBFD transmission is preferable in terms of capacity.

This paper considers the recovery problem of distributed compressed sensing (DCS), where J (J≥2) signals all have sparse common component and sparse innovation components. The decoder attempts to jointly recover each component based on {Mj} random noisy measurements (j=1,…,J) with the prior information on the support probabilities, i.e., the probabilities that the entries in each component are nonzero. We give both the sufficient and necessary conditions on the total number of measurements $sum olimits_{j = 1}^J M_j$ that is needed to recover the support set of each component perfectly. The results show that when the number of signal J increases, the required average number of measurements $sum olimits_{j = 1}^J M_j/J$ decreases. Furthermore, we propose an extension of one existing algorithm for DCS to exploit the prior information, and simulations verify its improved performance.

In this paper, we investigate the capacity performance of an in-band full-duplex (IBFD) amplify-and-forward two-way relay system under the effect of residual loop-back-interference (LBI). In a two-way IBFD relay system, two IBFD nodes exchange data with each other via an IBFD relay. Both two-way relaying and IBFD one-way relaying could double the spectrum efficiency theoretically. However, due to imperfect channel estimation, the performance of two-way relaying is degraded by self-interference at the receiver. Moreover, the performance of the IBFD relaying is deteriorated by LBI between the transmit antenna and the receive antenna of the node. Different from the IBFD one-way relay scenario, the IBFD two-way relay system will suffer from an extra level of LBI at the destination receiver. We derive accurate approximations of the average end-to-end capacities for both the IBFD and half-duplex modes. We evaluate the impact of the LBI and channel estimation errors on system performance. Monte Carlo simulations verify the validity of analytical results. It can be shown that with certain signal-to-noise ratio values and effective interference cancellation techniques, the IBFD transmission is preferable in terms of capacity. The IBFD two-way relaying is an attractive technique for practical applications.

The theory of compressed sensing (CS) is very attractive in that it makes it possible to reconstruct sparse signals with sub-Nyquist sampling rates. Considering that CS can be regarded as a joint source-channel code, it has been recently applied in communication systems and shown great potential. This paper studies compressed cooperation in an amplify-and-forward (CC-AF) relay channel. By discussing whether the source transmits the same messages in two phases, and the different cases of the measurement matrices used at the source and the relay, four decoding strategies are proposed and their transmission rates are analyzed theoretically. With the derived rates, we show by numerical simulations that CC-AF outperforms the direct compressed transmission without relay. In addition, the performance of CC-AF and the existing compressed cooperation with decode-and-forward relay is also compared.

In compressed sensing, most previous researches have studied the recovery performance of a sparse signal x based on the acquired model y=Φx+n, where n denotes the noise vector. There are also related studies for general perturbation environment, i.e., y=(Φ+E)x+n, where E is the measurement perturbation. IHT and HTP algorithms are the classical algorithms for sparse signal reconstruction in compressed sensing. Under the general perturbations, this paper derive the required sufficient conditions and the error bounds of IHT and HTP algorithms.

In the context of compressed sensing (CS), simultaneous orthogonal matching pursuit (SOMP) algorithm is an important iterative greedy algorithm for multiple measurement matrix vectors sharing the same non-zero locations. Restricted isometry property (RIP) of measurement matrix is an effective tool for analyzing the convergence of CS algorithms. Based on the RIP of measurement matrix, this paper shows that for the K-row sparse recovery, the restricted isometry constant (RIC) is improved to $delta_{K+1}<rac{sqrt{4K+1}-1}{2K}$ for SOMP algorithm. In addition, based on this RIC, this paper obtains sufficient conditions that ensure the convergence of SOMP algorithm in noisy case.
