The performance of a cooperative network with Cooperative Maximal Ratio Combining (C-MRC) is analyzed. To this end, we propose a heuristic approximation to the total received SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) at the destination. The approximation is not only an accurate representation of the received SNR, but also amenable to performance analysis. We then derive the probability density function (PDF) of...
By enhancing diversity, cooperation in wireless networks allows increasing the transmission reliability and extending the radio coverage, without the need of implementing multiple antennas at the terminals. In this context, this paper proposes a general approach for analyzing the performance of dual-hop cooperative diversity networks with nonregenerative variable-gain relays. Such a strategy allows...
In this paper, we propose a cross-layer optimization approach that exploits retransmission diversity in wireless CDMA communications. Conventionally, data packets that are not correctly detected are usually dropped. These dropped packets can be used to help data packet detection. By exploiting all the retransmitted packets, data packets can be correctly detected with higher probability. The proposed...
Cooperative wireless communications offers a new dimension of diversity by emulating transmit antenna diversity to provide reliable communications. In cooperative diversity, single-antenna radios behave as relays between a source and destination, and the performance improvements are due to cooperation of the source and the relay. However, a misbehaving relay can degrade the envisaged performance improvements...
