—In wireless networks, node cooperation has been exploited as a data relaying mechanism for decades. However, the wireless channel allows for much richer interaction among nodes....
— This paper examines the achievable performance gains when a particular class of cooperative relaying known as best-select is employed. In essence, best-select seeks to improve ...
The existing credit-based mechanisms mainly focus on stimulating the rational packet droppers to relay other nodes' packets, but they cannot identify the irrational packet dro...
— This paper investigates the problem of the formation of an uplink tree structure among the IEEE 802.16j network’s relay stations (RSs) and their serving base station (MR-BS)....
: Cooperative communications have been demonstrated to be effective in combating the multiple fading effects in wireless networks, and improving the network performance in terms of...
