Best relay selection (BRS) has received considerable attention in the literature as it makes
efficient use of the system resources and achieves full diversity. Partial relay selection (PRS) …

Previous work on cooperative communications has concentrated primarily on the diversity
benefits of such techniques. This paper, instead, considers the multiplexing benefits of …

This Letter analyzes the outage performance of a multiuser bidirectional cooperative cellular
network in which one base station (BS) and one out of N mobile stations (MSs) exchange …

In this paper, we consider a 2-hop wireless diversity relay network. We explore transmit
power allocation among the source and relays to maximize the received signal to noise ratio …

We consider a heterogeneous wireless ad hoc network. All nodes are within radio range
and may employ an arbitrary number of antennas. Our goal is to achieve a distributed spatial …

Nowadays, wireless communication has become a fabric of our daily life, and it has been a
universal demand for higher capacity and longer battery lifetime. For the sake of solving …

Cooperative relaying achieves a wide range of advantages including diversity gain,
coverage extension and mitigation of shadowing. Nevertheless, the performance …

Cooperative communications significantly improve the performance of wireless networks
with the help of relay nodes, whereas multiuser diversity (MUD) is a kind of diversity inherent …

Future cellular wireless networks could include multihop transmission through relays. We
propose a centralized downlink scheduling scheme in a cellular network with a small …

In this paper, we present a hierarchical convergence scheme for multi‐radio access
networks via heterogeneous cooperative relaying technique, where heterogeneous …
