Magnetic Induction (MI) communication can be applied in some through-the-earth scenarios such as mines and underground rivers. To increase the transmission rate of MI communications, we propose a cooperative MI (CMI) scheme with an amplify-and-forward (AF) relay. Different from existing studies, we mainly focus on the relay with arbitrary antenna position and orientation (antenna deployment, AD). We derive the closed-form expression of CMI achievable data rate gain (CMG) for the relay and the closed-form expression of CMI channel bandwidth. Simulations reveal that a relay with appropriate AD could yield a significant increase in the achievable rate for MI systems.
Magnetic Induction (MI) communication is effective in underground tunnels for emergency rescue vehicle due to the small-size antenna. It can highly benefit from a cooperative decode-and-forward (DF) relay to achieve a higher data rate. However, its channel gain is extremely posit…
