On the Complexity of Scheduling in Half-Duplex Diamond Networks

Christina Fragouli, Ayfer Özgür Aydin, Siddhartha Brahma

We consider an n-relay Gaussian diamond network where a source communicates to a destination with the help of n half-duplex relays. Achieving rates close to the capacity of this network requires to employ all the n relays under an optimal transmit/receive ...

Baseband and RF hardware impairments in full-duplex wireless systems: experimental characterisation and suppression

Andreas Peter Burg, Alexios Konstantinos Balatsoukas Stimming, Andrew Charles Mallory Austin, Pavle Belanovic

Hardware imperfections can significantly reduce the performance of full-duplex wireless systems by introducing non-idealities and random effects that make it challenging to fully suppress self-interference. Previous research has mostly focused on analysing ...
