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...
In this paper, a two-hop relay assisted cooperative Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes (OSTBC) transmission scheme is considered for the downlink communication of a cellular system,...

Abstract— Channel estimation (CE) plays an important role in determining the achievable performance of coherently detected communications systems. In this paper, the impact of im...
This work considers the problem of communication from a single transmitter, over a network with colocated users, through an independent block Rayleigh fading channel. The colocati...
Cooperative communications is a rapidly evolving research area. Most of the cooperative protocols that have appeared in the literature assume slow flat fading channels and Gaussi...
