Abstract: This article reviews progress in cooperative communication networks. Our survey is by no means exhaustive. Instead, we assemble a representative sample of recent results to serve as a roadmap for the area. Our emphasis is on wireless networks, but many of the results apply to cooperation in wireline networks and mixed wireless/wireline networks. We intend our presentation to be a tutorial for the reader who is familiar with information theory concepts but has not actively followed the field. For the active res… Show more

“…The capacity results in Sections 4.1-4.5 imply that decode-forward (DF) relaying suffices, i.e., amplify-forward (AF) and compress-forward (CF) do not improve rates (see also [19] ([Chapter 4])). Quantize-map-forward [17] and noisy network coding [18] also do not improve on DF.…”

“…In spatial diversity schemes, multiple spatially separated antennas are used to transmit or receive information. In the special case of cooperative communications, the required antennas are "borrowed" from third-party nodes, called relayers [18,19]. A particularly interesting application of the cooperative communications concept is to incorporate relay nodes into retransmission-based error-control schemes, where a relayer performs retransmissions on behalf of a source node, provided the relay node has managed to overhear the original data packet (see [9,20] for relaying in a TDMA context).…”

“…In the following, we characterize delay performance of three low-complexity cooperative protocols that can be utilized in the network, including amplify-forward, decode-forward and classic multi-hop [7]. Each of them employs a different type of processing technique by the relay node, as well as different type of combining at the destination.…”
