Abstract
The amplify-and-forward cooperative diversity scheme is generalized to the MIMO channel. A family of space-time block codes for a half-duplex MIMO amplify-and-forward fading cooperative channel with N relays is constructed. The code construction is shown to achieve the optimal diversity-multiplexing tradeoff of the channel

Optimal Space–Time Codes for the MIMO Amplify-and-Forward Cooperative Channel

TL;DR: This work extends the nonorthogonal amplify-and-forward (NAF) cooperative diversity scheme to the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel and proves that the Golden code and the 4times4 Perfect code are optimal for the single-antenna and two-Antenna cases, respectively.

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.
