| Abstract |
In the next generation wireless networks/systems, Drone Assisted Network Coded Cooperation (DA-NCC) aims to improve the reliability as well as throughput of the network. In this paper, we consider Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) environments and develop the theoretical framework for DA-NCC system by considering height dependent path loss exponent. For analysing the network performance, Amplify-and-Forward (AF) is used at relay for processing the signals and Selection Combining (SC) is used at destination nodes for combining the signals. To evaluate the network's performance, we formulated the expression of spectral efficiency and derived a mathematical equation of the outage probability for DA-NCC system. At the desired node, the mathematical equations for network coding noise, variance of network coding noise, and signal to overall noise ratio are also derived. To legitimize our analytical results, we use monte carlo simulations in MATLAB. In Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications, smart cities, and disaster management, the generalized system model is useful for establishing reliable communication linkages among Ground Users (GUs) in the event that the central coordinator (Base Station (BS)) is disrupted. © 2021 IEEE. |
