Cooperative communication can increase the throughput and/or extend the coverage of
wireless networks. However, in conventional cooperative networks, half-duplex relays …

In this paper, we study the relay selection problem for a finite buffer-aided decode-and-
forward cooperative wireless network. A relay selection policy that fully exploits the flexibility …

In this paper, we propose a new relay selection scheme for half-duplex relays with buffers.
The proposed scheme is referred to as max-max relay selection (MMRS) since the relays …

In this paper, we propose a buffer state based relay selection scheme for a finite buffer-aided
cooperative relaying system. Our proposed relay selection scheme selects a relay node …

We consider a simple network consisting of a source, a half-duplex decode-and-forward
relay with a buffer, and a destination. We assume that the direct source-destination link is not …

We propose a new relaying scheme referred to as space full-duplex max-max relay
selection (SFD-MMRS), which uses relay selection and half-duplex (HD) relays with buffers …

In this paper, we propose buffer-aided physical-layer network coding (PLNC) techniques for
improving data transmission over cooperative networks. In particular, we develop buffer …

In this paper, we propose a new relaying scheme, referred to as priority-based max-link
relay selection, for buffer-aided decode-and-forward cooperative networks. We give the first …

This article investigates the reinforcement learning for the relay selection in the delay-
constrained buffer-aided networks. The buffer-aided relay selection significantly improves …

In this paper, a multiuser mixed radio frequency (RF) and hybrid free-space optical (FSO)/RF
system is considered, where multiple mobile users transmit their data to an intermediate …
