We propose the use of simple full interference cancellation
(FIC) and orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing
(OFDM) within a two-hop asynchronous cooperative four relay
network. This approach can achieve the full available diversity
and asymptotically full rate. The four relay nodes are arranged as
two groups of two relay nodes with offset transmission scheduling.
Therefore, the source can serially transmit data to the destination
and the overall rate can approach one when the number of
samples is large. However, the four-path relay scheme may suffer
from inter-relay interference which is caused by the simultaneous
transmission of the source and another group of relays. The FIC
approach is therefore used to remove inter-relay interference;
OFDM with cyclic prefix (CP) and time-reversion is applied at
the source and relays respectively, in order to combat timing
errors. Uncoded and coded bit error rate simulations confirm
the utility of the scheme.
