Multiuser Cooperative Multiplexing with Interference Suppression in Wireless Relay Networks

In this paper, we consider multiuser cooperative multiplexing schemes in cellular networks with fixed relays and address the problem of inter-user interference. We propose two schemes to mitigate the effect of the interference: an interference cancellation scheme and a cooperative precoding scheme. The interference cancellation scheme utilizes the broadcast nature of the signal transmitted to the fixed relay, and is based on a decode-and-forward relaying protocol. We provide a capacity bound for the proposed scheme, and also propose a power reduction scheme for the fixed relay. For the cooperative precoding scheme, we employ a cooperative linear filter at the transmitter to eliminate interference. Simulation results show that both proposed schemes enhance the achievable throughput significantly.
