Relay sharing has been recently investigated to increase the performance of coexisting
wireless multi-hop networks. In this paper, we analyze a scenario where two wireless ad hoc …

Infrastructure sharing has been recently investigated as a viable solution to increase the
performance of coexisting wireless networks. In this paper, we analyze a scenario where two …

In this paper, we study the differences of applying cooperation to fully-connected and multi-
hop wireless networks, and find out that both the enlarged interference area and link density …

In wireless ad hoc networks such as mobile ad hoc networks and sensor networks, most of
the functions (routing, mobility management, and security) must rely on cooperation between …

Researchers have investigated non cooperative issues in wireless sensor networks and
mobile ad hoc networks in the past decade. In particular, packet forwarding is of critical …

Relay transmission or cooperative communication is an advanced technique that can
improve the performance of data transmission among wireless nodes. However, while the …

In a distributed wireless system, multiple network nodes behave cooperatively towards a
common goal. An important challenge in such a scenario is to attain mutual cooperation …

In wireless ad hoc networks, nodes communicate with far off destinations using intermediate
nodes as relays. Since wireless nodes are energy constrained, it may not be in the best …

In this paper we consider wireless cooperative multihop networks, where nodes that have
decoded the message at the previous hop cooperate in the transmission toward the next …

We analyze wireless ad hoc networks that use cooperative diversity from two
complementary perspectives. The network we consider uses the amplify-and-forward (AF) …
