In next-generation wireless networks, relay-based packet forwarding, emerged as an
appealing technique to extend network coverage while maintaining the required service …

To address the high capacity versus limited coverage tradeoff in Fifth Generation (5G)
networks, in this letter, we introduce a relay-assisted network leveraging multiple frequency …

Although emerging relay-based communication networks boast of increased transmission
coverage and capacity, they currently lack schemes that optimize the simultaneous …

In Beyond Fifth Generation (B5G) networks, Internet of Things (IoT) and massive Machine
Type Communication (mMTC) traffic are anticipated to be offloaded by multi-hop, Device-to …

In this paper, we study the outage probability minimizing problem in a two-hop cooperative
relay network. To reduce outage probability, existing studies propose many schemes for …

Conventional optimization-based relay selection for multihop networks cannot resolve the
conflict between performance and cost. The optimal selection policy is centralized and …

Current IEEE 802.11 WLANs suffer from the well-known rate anomaly problem, which can
drastically reduce network performance. Opportunistic relaying can address this problem …

Relay-enabled cooperative communication has been a hot topic in the area of the Internet of
Things (IoT), for its help in providing important solutions to resource limitations in IoT …

This article investigates the reinforcement learning for the relay selection in the delay-
constrained buffer-aided networks. The buffer-aided relay selection significantly improves …

Relay stations can be deployed between mobile stations and base stations in a single-hop
wireless network to extend its coverage and improve its capacity. In this paper, we exploit …
