Abstract:Cooperative communication provides an efficient and low-cost way to achieve spatial diversity without deploying multiple antennas on each node in wireless networks. In a channel-constrained environment, such as cognitive radio networks, the channel allocation as well as relay assignment have been identified as two critical factors in determining the performance of multiple source-destination pairs. However, the advantage of channel diversity has little been exploited in such networks under a simplified model w… 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.
