Noncoherent Distributed Beamforming in Decentralized Two-Way Relay Networks

Many noncoherent distributed strategies for cooperative sensor networks that do not require channel knowledge at any antenna to overcome the overhead involved in channel estimation are lately suggested; however, these strategies suffer from low system performance in terms of bit error rate (BER) and a comparably high decoding complexity. Differential beamforming strategies have recently been proposed to overcome these problems; however, they are...
