Abstract--Designing diversity achieving schemes over the wireless broadband fading relay channels is crucial to achieve higher diversity gains. These gains are achieved by exploiti...
We deal with the concept of physical-layer fairness in amplify and forward cooperative diversity systems, which reflects the need for equally allocating the consumed power among th...

In this paper, we provide a complete study on the training based channel estimation issues for relay networks that employ the amplify-and-forward (AF) transmission scheme. We first...
Using relays in wireless networks can potentially lead to significant capacity increases. However, within an asynchronous multi-user communication setting, relaying might cause mor...
In this paper, designing an effective user relaying algorithm, in terms of relay node selection and power allocation, is discussed for amplify-and-forward wireless relay networks. ...

We consider a cooperative wireless network where the source broadcasts data to relays, some or all of which cooperatively beamform to forward the data to the destination. The netw...

1 . Cooperative transmission has emerged as an effective tool to deal with channel impairments. In this work we study the applicability of amplify-and-forward cooperative transmiss...
Abstract--In this paper, we propose a new cooperative communication protocol, which achieves higher bandwidth efficiency while guaranteeing the same diversity order as that of the ...
