Content Summary | Cooperation among single-antenna
transceivers and formation of distributed antenna
arrays has recently attracted considerable interest.
Such distributed antenna arrays are envisioned to
provide resistance to slow wireless fading and
improve performance of point-to-point wireless
communication across various dimensions.
Despite the plethora of recently proposed theoretical
approaches that promise gains due to
diversity at the physical layer though cooperation
(cooperative diversity), there is not much work in
the implementation of cooperative antenna arrays
with existing wireless transceivers. In this article
we summarize the main challenges in implementation
of cooperative diversity antenna arrays for
realistic wireless networks. We then present the
basic building blocks of a cooperative diversity
demonstration realized in the lab, utilizing commodity
radio hardware. Our work sheds light onto
the synergies needed between the physical, link,
and routing layers that significantly simplify the
overall network operation and decrease the
transceiver complexity in cooperative diversity
antenna arrays, making feasible the utilization of
(existing) commodity radio hardware. | en |
