Power allocation for F/TDMA multiuser two-way relay networks
We consider a multiuser two-way relay network where multiple pairs of users exchange information with the assistance of a relay node, using orthogonal channels per pair. For a vari...

Enhancing cell-edge performance: a downlink dynamic interference avoidance scheme with inter-cell coordination
Interference management has been a key concept for designing future high data-rate wireless systems that are required to employ dense reuse of spectrum. Static or semistatic interf...

Bandwidth exchange: an energy conserving incentive mechanism for cooperation
Cooperative forwarding in wireless networks has shown to yield rate and diversity gains, but it incurs energy costs borne by the cooperating nodes. In this paper we consider an inc...
