Performance Optimal for Deploying Relays in Urban Micro Cells on LTE-Advanced Technology

Abstract

Cooperative Relay is a promising enhancement to modern radio technologies which has been considered in LTE-Advanced and IEEE 802.16m technologies. Cooperative Relay is one of the technologies that used to improve coverage in downlink mobile network. The work is done by designing numerous environments for LTE-Advanced networks involving relays, whereby using vertical distributions of relays for both AAF & DAF techniques as well as comparison between the performances optimal of both techniques on urban micro cell for LTE-Advanced Technologies, Insertion the channel model from WINNER project. The performances optimal of non-Cooperative Relay and Cooperative Relay are evaluated in terms of Symbol Error Rate (SER) and Signal-to Noise-Ratio (SNR). The simulation results show that relay technologies can effectively improve system performance. On the other hand, 10-Relay in vertical distributions clearly shows outperforms on other environments and, when the relay put near, middle and far from Evolved Node B (eNB), the result shows at SER of 10-3 the system that employs AAF technique outperforms on the system that employs DAF technique in LTE-A system by about 6.5 dB, 2.5 dB and 2 dB sequent.
