Title
A Cooperative Moving Relay Node System Deployment in a High Speed Train
Abstract
In this paper we present system level simulation results for a cooperative moving relay node (MRN) system deployed on a high speed train (HST). Recently interest has grown in using MRNs to provide enhanced cellular coverage to users in public transport, particularly HSTs, of which the modern construction materials and techniques cause high vehicle penetration loss (VPL) when signals propagate into the train. MRNs utilising antenna arrays on the exterior and interior of the train are a promising solution to overcoming this VPL in order to provide onboard users with improved service. We show that a cooperative system of 8 MRNs onboard a HST is able to provide significant improvements to achievable throughput of onboard users when compared to direct transmission, as well as indirectly improving the throughput of other users located in cells the HST is passing through.
