— The IEEE 802.16j protocol for a multi-hop relay (MMR) WiMAX network is being developed to increase data rates and extend service coverage as an enhancement of existing WiMAX st...
Multi-hop relaying is an important concept in tackling the inherent problems of limited capacity and coverage in cellular networks. It helps to solve the dead-spots problem and to...
—In this letter, a network-coded cooperation scheme with dynamic coding mechanism (DC-NCC) is proposed. In DCNCC, the relay dynamically adapts forming the network-coded data base...
In this paper, we consider hybrid ad hoc networks, which are composed of two kinds of nodes, regular ones and nodes with additional capabilities. For example, multi-hop cellular a...
Abstract—Cognitive radio networks (CRN) may greatly enhance the throughput based on a given bandwidth. CRN has a unique feature, consisting of uni-directional opportunistic wirel...
