Assessment of the Link Performance With a Single Interferer

Abstract

A novel metric to assess whether the standard Gaussian approximation of a single interferer underestimates or overestimates the link bit error rate is derived. The standard Gaussian approximation is newly constructed by a nonlinear transformation. The proposed metric is a function of the interference statistics; however, it is otherwise independent of the statistics of the desired signal. A closed-form expression for the proposed metric is obtained for the Nakagami distributed interference fading amplitude. Numerical results confirming validity of the proposed metric are provided for the case of Nakagami and lognormally distributed interference fading amplitudes.

Wireless-Powered Communications: Performance Analysis and Optimization

“…In the current work, we consider the scenario with a single dominant co-channel interferer. It is worth pointing out that the single dominant interferer assumption has been widely adopt in the literature, see [33,34] and references therein. Moreover, such a system model enables us to gain key insights on the joint effect of path loss exponent, network topology and interference power in a wireless powered network.…”

Wireless Information and Power Transfer in Relay Systems With Multiple Antennas and Interference

“…We assume that the relay is subjected to a single dominant interferer and AWGN while the destination is still corrupted by the AWGN only. 3 It is worth pointing out the single dominant interferer assumption has been widely adopt in the literature, see [31,32] and references therein. Moreover, such a system model enables us to gain key insights on the joint effect of CCI and multiple antennas in an energy harvesting relaying system.…”

On the Secrecy Performance of Generalized User Selection for Interference-Limited Multiuser Wireless Networks

“…for fixed k and τ and N → ∞, where the CDF of Z is as in (13). Using (15), P out (R s ) can be expressed as…”

“…We derive a closed-form expression for the secrecy outage probability for an arbitrary N and an asymptotic expression for a fixed k and large N . Furthermore, we derive a closed form asymptotic expression for the ergodic secrecy capacity of the k-th best user and show that it scales like O (log(N )) for a fixed k and large N .1 The single dominant interferer assumption has been widely considered in the literature, see [12], [13] and references therein. The interfering BS here can be viewed as a co-channel interferer serving another cell (network) that causes an interference to the cell of interest.…”
