TLDR
In this paper, a diversity technique for communication over fading channels in the presence of interference is proposed. But the technique is not suitable for all channels and it is not applicable to all channels.

A simple and general parameterization quantifying performance in fading channels

TL;DR: The proposed analysis offers a simple and unifying approach to evaluating the performance of uncoded and (possibly space-time) coded transmissions over fading channels, and the method applies to almost all digital modulation schemes, including M-ary phaseshift keying, quadrature amplitude modulation, and frequency-shift keying with coherent or noncoherent detection.

Spectral efficiency in the wideband regime

TL;DR: The fundamental bandwidth-power tradeoff of a general class of channels in the wideband regime characterized by low, but nonzero, spectral efficiency and energy per bit close to the minimum value required for reliable communication is found.

Design challenges for energy-constrained ad hoc wireless networks

TL;DR: It is shown that cross-layer design of these protocols is imperative to meet emerging application requirements, particularly when energy is a limited resource.

Coded cooperation in wireless communications: space-time transmission and iterative decoding

TL;DR: This paper presents two extensions to the coded cooperation framework, which increase the diversity of coded cooperation in the fast-fading scenario via ideas borrowed from space-time codes and investigates the application of turbo codes to this framework.

Exact symbol error probability of a Cooperative network in a Rayleigh-fading environment

TL;DR: This letter presents an exact average symbol error rate analysis for the distributed spatial diversity wireless system with K amplifying relays in a Rayleigh-fading environment and shows that the cooperative network presented in this letter achieves full diversity order.
