— In multiuser systems, multiuser diversity gains can be achieved by assigning channels to users with higher channel quality. To avoid the extensive information exchange required...
Abstract—In this paper, we investigate cooperative OFDM communications using amplify-and-forward (AF) protocol at the relays, in the presence of imperfect timing synchronization....
: 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...

We study the joint allocation of three types of resources, namely, power, subcarriers and relay nodes, in cooperative two-hop multi-relay OFDM systems. Each relay adopts the amplif...
Abstract— In wireless cellular systems, capacity can be increased if both in-cell and out-of-cell cochannel interference (CCI) is properly handled. Moreover, spatial multiplexing...
