We propose a cooperative-diversity technique for ad hoc networks based on the decode-and-forward relaying strategy. We develop a MAC protocol based on slotted ALOHA that allows ne...
Cooperative communications is a class of techniques which seek to improve reliability and throughput in wireless systems by pooling the resources of distributed nodes. While coope...
Abstract— In this paper, focusing on multihop decode-andforward cooperative networks, a hop-by-hop routing strategy is designed to optimize the end-to-end outage performance when...
