Abstract:The partner selection problem for cooperative transmission is considered. Our objective is sum power minimization. We provide a simple optimal rate allocation algorithm for two cooperating node pairs and closed-form optimal rate allocations for some cases. With these results, we determine the partner for each node pair by Gabow's Algorithm. For a large number of nodes, we propose the grouping algorithm which is near-optimal but reduces the communication and computational overhead. We show the significant impro… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
