—We consider the application of switch-and-stay transmit diversity (SSTD) to a three-node cooperative diversity system with decode-and-forward relaying. The basic idea of SSTD ge...
Switched Processing Systems (SPS) capture the essence of a fundamental resource allocation problem in many modern communication, computer and manufacturing systems involving hetero...
The joint spectral radius of a set of matrices is a measure of the maximal asymptotic growth rate that can be obtained by forming long products of matrices taken from the set. This...
