Recently, there has been an upsurge of interest in multi-hop relay in both academia and
industry. By breaking a long distance low quality link into two or more high quality segments …

In this paper, we study the effect of multihop relaying on the throughput of the downstream
channel in cellular networks. In particular, we compare the throughput of the multihop …

This paper presents closed-form capacity expressions for interfere-limited relay channels.
Existing theoretical analysis has primarily focused on Gaussian relay channels, and the …

Recently, multihop cellular networks (MCNs) were proposed to preserve the advantages of
traditional single-hop cellular networks with multihop ad hoc relaying networks, while …

Recently, the notion that a logical next step towards future mobile radio networks is to
introduce multihop relaying into cellular networks, has gained wide acceptance …

In order to understand the key merits of multiuser diversity, opportunistic scheduling and
spectrum reuse techniques in downlink relay-based cellular networks, this paper analyzes …

We summarize capacity results to show merits of multihop relaying in broadband cellular
mesh networks. Under the guidance of these results, we provide design perspectives on …

The opportunities and flexibility in relay networks and orthogonal frequency-division multiple
access (OFDMA) make the combination a suitable candidate network and air-interface …
