In recent years, a new paradigm for communication called cooperative communications has
been proposed for which initial information theoretic studies have shown the potential for …

Next-generation wireless networks will go beyond the pointto-point or point-to-multipoint
paradigms of classical cellular networks. They will be based on complex interactions, where …

The next generation wireless systems are supposed to handle high data rate as well as
large coverage area. It should consume less power and utilize bandwidth efficiently. At the …

Cooperative communication has been shown as an effective way to exploit spatial diversity
to improve the quality of wireless links. The key feature of cooperative transmission is to …

This article outlines one way to address these problems by using the notion of cooperation
between wireless nodes. In cooperative communications, multiple nodes in a wireless …

Modern radio communication systems aim to enhance throughput and reliability in wireless
networks with limited resources. Wireless mobile communication over a radio channel is …

Cooperative communication is capable of forming a virtual antenna array for each node
(user) in a network by allowing the nodes (users) to relay the messages of others to the …

With the rapid growth of multimedia services, future generations of wireless communications
require higher data rates and a more reliable transmission link while keeping satisfactory …

Cooperative communication has drawn considerable attention from the wireless research
community given the efficient and optimal utilization of constraint resources in dynamic …

We consider various relaying strategies for wireless networks by comparatively examining
direct transmission, conventional relaying, and the novel concepts of cooperative relaying …
