Cooperative Communications over Flat Fading Channels with Carrier Offsets: A Double-Differential Modulation Approach

We propose double-differential (DD) modulation for the amplify-and-forward protocol over Nakagami-m fading channels with carrier offsets. We propose an emulated maximum ratio combining (EMRC) decoder, which could be used by the double-differential receiver in the absence of exact channel knowledge....
