Abstract: In this study, a cross-layer design which combines
adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) and hybrid automatic repeat
request (HARQ) techniques for a cooperative wireless network is
investigated analytically. Previous analyses of such systems in the
literature are confined to the case where the fading channel is
independent at each retransmission, which can be unrealistic unless
the channel is varying very fast. On the other hand, temporal channel
correlation can have a significant impact on the performance of
HARQ systems. In this study, utilizing a Markov channel model
which accounts for the temporal correlation, the performance of
non-cooperative and cooperative networks are investigated in terms of
packet loss rate and throughput metrics for Chase combining HARQ
strategy.
Abstract: In this paper we proposed multistage adaptive
ARQ/HARQ/HARQ scheme. This method combines pure ARQ
(Automatic Repeat reQuest) mode in low channel bit error rate and
hybrid ARQ method using two different Reed-Solomon codes in
middle and high error rate conditions. It follows, that our scheme has
three stages. The main goal is to increase number of states in adaptive
HARQ methods and be able to achieve maximum throughput for
every channel bit error rate. We will prove the proposal by
calculation and then with simulations in land mobile satellite channel
environment. Optimization of scheme system parameters is described
in order to maximize the throughput in the whole defined Signal-to-
Noise Ratio (SNR) range in selected channel environment.
