TLDR
This work considers two relay selection methods and provides an efficient algorithm for selecting an optimal set of active relay nodes, with a cardinality constraint on the set, for proactive relaying with diverse mean channel gains on different links.
Abstract
We consider multiple relay selection for proactive relaying with diverse mean channel gains on different links. We consider a variable rate system where the transmission rate is maximized based on an end-to-end (e2e) channel gain. We consider two relay selection methods and provide an efficient algorithm for selecting an optimal set of active relay nodes, with a cardinality constraint on the set. An approximation to the statistical behavior of the e2e performance for the two relay selection methods is derived. Our results show benefits from using multiple relays when different links exhibit different mean channel gains.

Energy-Efficient Dynamic Resource Allocation for Opportunistic-Relaying-Assisted SC-FDMA Using Turbo-Equalizer-Aided Soft Decode-and-Forward

TL;DR: This paper proposes two joint dynamic resource allocation (JDRA) schemes by assuming that the pilot-aided channel-quality information (CQI) of all the users may be exchanged and demonstrates that the proposed FHQA JDRA schemes can achieve an energy reduction gain of 91% for a single-antenna base station (BS) receiver and up to 7.4% when considering the energy consumption due to CQI exchange among relays.

User cooperation diversity. Part I. System description

TL;DR: Results show that, even though the interuser channel is noisy, cooperation leads not only to an increase in capacity for both users but also to a more robust system, where users' achievable rates are less susceptible to channel variations.

Distributed space-time-coded protocols for exploiting cooperative diversity in wireless networks

TL;DR: This work develops and analyzes space-time coded cooperative diversity protocols for combating multipath fading across multiple protocol layers in a wireless network and demonstrates that these protocols achieve full spatial diversity in the number of cooperating terminals, not just theNumber of decoding relays, and can be used effectively for higher spectral efficiencies than repetition-based schemes.
