Abstract— Discrete power allocation strategies for amplifyand-forward cooperative networks are proposed based on selective relaying methods. The goal of power allocation is to ma...
—Sleep-wake scheduling is an effective mechanism to prolong the lifetime of energy-constrained wireless sensor networks. However, it incurs an additional delay for packet deliver...

Scalability and extended lifetime are two critical design goals of any large scale wireless sensor network. A two-tiered network model has been proposed recently for this purpose....
: Collaborative beamforming (CB) and cooperative transmission (CT) have recently emerged as communication techniques that can make effective use of collaborative/cooperative nodes ...
