Cooperative communication is an effective method of alleviating fading and increasing
wireless transmission capacity. However, interference will decrease the performance of …

We investigate the problem of how to minimize the energy consumption in multi-hop
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), under the constraint of end-to-end reliability Quality of …

In relay‐enhanced cellular systems, throughput of User Equipment (UE) is constrained by
the bottleneck of the two‐hop link, backhaul link (or the first hop link), and access link (the …

In this paper, we study how to use cooperative communication to provide QoS support for
multi-hop wireless network. We define a new concept, called cooperative QoS routing which …

IEEE 802.16 e (also known as Mobile WiMAX) is the international standard for wireless
metropolitan area networks. To enhance the network throughput and extend the coverage of …

In a wireless sensor network, sensor nodes are strictly energy and capacity constrained,
which makes it necessary for them to collaboratively execute a complex task. Thus, task …

Relay enabled wireless networks play a significant role in data transmission, as it not only
extends the base station (BS) coverage range but also improves the transmission efficiency …

Multi-cell cooperative transmission schemes are considered as promising candidates in
future 4G wireless networks (LTE-Advanced) to combat the inter-cell interference that …

Due to the tradeoff between capacity and fairness in a wide variety of networks, increasing
one objective may deteriorate the other. This paper investigates the possibility of improving …

To operate various radio access technologies (RATs) for system capacity optimization in
future heterogeneous wireless network, the joint radio resource management (JRRM) was …
