In the Next Generation Networks (NGNs) users will carry multiple devices forming cooperative networks known as Personal Area Networks (PANs). Some existing technologies enable thi...
— In infrastructure-less wireless systems network-wise time and frequency synchronization can be achieved by exchanging mutual synchronization errors among neighboring nodes. Coo...
— Channel estimation error problem is among the main causes of performance degradation in wireless networks. In this paper, we investigate the impact of cooperative communication...
