Abstract

Summary: In a high‐speed vehicular scenario, due to vehicle penetration loss (VPL) and fast signal fluctuations, frequent handovers occur, which results in more battery consumption. So power saving is a critical concern in high‐speed wireless networks. In the past, moving relay (MR)‐based heterogeneous network (HetNet) models were proposed and studied to overcome the effect of VPL, but the issue of power saving has not been studied till now for vehicular HetNet. In this paper, we propose an energy‐efficient algorithm that selects the best number of cooperative MRs among multiple MRs installed on the top of the train for efficient utilization of transmission power in a NOMA‐based wireless network. A half‐duplex amplify‐and‐forward relaying protocol is used for the investigation. We define the optimization problem of energy efficiency for cooperative MR. The problem of energy maximization is stated as an optimization problem, and an energy‐efficient MR selection algorithm is proposed as the solution to the optimization problem. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm enhances the energy efficiency of vehicular and nonvehicular users and it also decreases the outage probability at fixed spectral efficiency in comparison with the fixed MR‐based selection combining and maximum ratio combining diversity techniques. This result will be beneficial in vehicular communication to achieve maximum energy efficiency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
