—Existing cooperative diversity protocols are designed with the inherent assumption that users exhibit cooperative behavior all the time. However, in a practical cooperative wire...
—Cooperative diversity is effectively used to combat the correlated fading. In the existing papers on cooperative diversity, the fading channels are idealistically assumed to be ...
Using relays in wireless networks can potentially lead to significant capacity increases. However, within an asynchronous multi-user communication setting, relaying might cause mor...
Collaborative relays achieve the benefits of spatial diversity without requiring physical antenna arrays at end devices. While many studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in a...
— This paper considers a relay communication system where cooperative diversity is achieved by spreading the relay transmissions using direct-sequence CDMA (DS/CDMA). We derive e...
