单源多中继单目的Mesh网络的容量研究

On the Capacity of the Single Source Multiple Relay Single Destination Mesh Network

Lawrence Ong, Mehul Motani

摘要:

在本文中,我们推导出一类特殊的网状网络的信息论容量。网状网络是一种异构无线网络,其中功率受限节点之间的传输由使用相同无线介质的强大中继辅助。我们研究的网状网络时,有一个源,一个目的地,和多个中继,我们称之为单源多中继单目的地(SSMRSD)网状网络。我们推导出当中继功率增长到无穷大时,SSMRSD网状网络的渐近容量。我们的做法如下。我们首先看看在高斯设置这些网络的信息理论容量的上限。然后,我们表明,这个界限是渐近实现的压缩和转发策略的多中继信道。我们还进行了数值计算的情况下,继电器有有限的权力。我们观察到,即使当中继功率仅是源功率的几倍时,压缩转发速率也接近容量。结果表明了无线网状网络中协作的价值。容量表征量化中继如何可以合作,使用压缩和转发策略,以节省节点能量或增加传输速率。

英文摘要:

In this paper, we derive the information theoretic capacity of a special class of mesh networks. A mesh network is a heterogeneous wireless network in which the transmission among power limited nodes is assisted by powerful relays, which use the same wireless medium. We investigate the mesh network when there is one source, one destination, and multiple relays, which we call the single source multiple relay single destination (SSMRSD) mesh network. We derive the asymptotic capacity of the SSMRSD mesh network when the relay powers grow to infinity. Our approach is as follows. We first look at an upper bound on the information theoretic capacity of these networks in a Gaussian setting. We then show that this bound is achievable asymptotically using the compress-and-forward strategy for the multiple relay channel. We also perform numerical computations for the case when the relays have finite powers. We observe that even when the relay power is only a few times larger than the source power, the compress-and-forward rate gets close to the capacity. The results indicate the value of cooperation in wireless mesh networks. The capacity characterization quantifies how the relays can cooperate, using the compress-and-forward strategy, to either conserve node energy or to increase transmission rate.
