This paper is on relay selection schemes for wireless relay networks. First, we derive the
diversity of many single-relay selection schemes in the literature. Then, we generalize the …

In this paper, a novel cognitive multiple-access strategy in the presence of a cooperating
relay is proposed. Exploiting an important phenomenon in wireless networks, source …

Recently, the merits of cooperative communication in the physical layer have been explored.
However, the impact of cooperative communication on the design of the higher layers has …

The point-to-point and point-to-multipoint communication features in the IEEE 802.11 ay
make it possible for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to form a UAV mesh network …

Cooperative communications represent a potential candidate to combat the effects of
channel fading and to increase the transmit energy efficiency in wireless sensor networks …

One important application of cooperative communications is to extend coverage area in
wireless networks without increasing infrastructure. However, a crucial challenge in …

Nowadays Wireless Sensor Networks WSNs are playing a vital role in several application
areas ranging health to battlefield Wireless sensor networks are easy to deploy due to its …

An output-threshold multiple-relay-selection (OT-MRS) scheme for dual-hop multibranch
cooperative wireless networks is proposed. In this scheme, the first Lc (nonordered) relays …

The quality of channel state information (CSI) plays a significant role in the performance of
relay selection (RS) schemes in cooperative communications. Particularly in a highly mobile …
