【摘要】 |
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been paid more attention in recent years. However, energy efficiency is still a troublesome issue in real WSN applications. In this paper, we studied the performance of a virtual multiple-input multiple-output (VMIMO)-based communications architecture for WSN applications. By analyzing the bit error rate (BER) of each cooperative branch, we presented the closed-form expressions for optimal transmitting power (TP) scheme in K? VMIMO cluster-based system. Then, the impact of the number of cooperating nodes on energy efficiency with energy-per-useful-bit (EPUB) metric was studied. Performance enhancement of the strategy with optimal TP assignment was verified by extensive simulations under different scenes. A thorough explanation of optimally choosing the number of cooperating nodes was also delivered by the aid of simulation verifications. |
