Frequently Asked Questions (7)
Q2. What is the probability of having two or more relays in the same time interval?
For the case of “hidden” relays, the uncertainty interval becomes since now the duration of the flag packet should be taken into account, as well as the propagation time toward the destination and back toward the relays and the radio switch time at the destination.
Q3. How does the collision probability of a relay change with increasing ratio?
For the case of all relays not equidistant to source or destination, the authors expect the collision probability to drop, compared to the equidistant case, since the asymmetry between the two links (from source to relay and from relay to destination) or the asymmetry between the expected SNRs among the relays will increase the variance of the timer function, compared to the equidistant case.
Q4. What is the impact of smart relaying on the performance of user cooperation protocols?
In particular, it is shown that for orthogonal cooperative diversity protocols there is no loss in performance (in terms of the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff) if only the best relay participates in cooperation.
Q5. What is the probability of having two or more relays expire within the same time interval?
the probability of having two or more relay timers expire within the same time interval is nonzero and can be analytically evaluated, given knowledge of the wireless channel statistics.
Q6. How did the authors plot the performance of the scheme when Policy The authorwas used?
Keeping the average value of any channel coefficient the same and assuming a single dominating path and a sum of reflecting paths (both terms with equal total power), the authors plotted the performance of the scheme when Policy The authorwas used, using Monte Carlo simulations (Fig. 4).
Q7. Why do the wireless terminals in this work not exploit CSI for beamforming?
The wireless terminals in this work do not exploit CSI for beamforming and do not adapt their transmission rate to the wireless channel conditions, either because they are operating in the minimum possible rate or because their hardware do not allow multiple rates.
