In this paper, a novel technique known as Cooperative Communication in MIMO has been incorporated. This technique allows single antenna mobiles to have the benefits of MIMO systems. Numerical analysis and mathematical modeling is done for SISO with no cooperation, MIMO with no cooperation and MIMO with cooperation or Cooperative MIMO. Expressions for SNR, Outage probability and capacity over a ...

Bargaining with Imperfect Enforcement* The game-theoretic bargaining literature insists on non-cooperative bargaining procedure but allows 'cooperative' implementation of agreements. The effect of this is to allow free-reign of bargaining power with no check upon it. In reality, courts cannot implement agreements costlessly, and parties often prefer to use 'non-cooperative' implementation. We p...

AIMS The objective of this study was to quantify the risk of serious blood and skin disorders associated with co-trimoxazole. METHODS We conducted a population-based cohort study of serious blood and skin disorders requiring hospitalization among otherwise healthy users of co-trimoxazole at Group Health Cooperative and Puget Sound (GHC). RESULTS During the years 1987 to 1993 we found six ca...

the purpose of the present research was to study the effect of cooperative methodology on the social skill development of the primary students. the methodology was quasi-experimental, with pre-test, post-test, and control group. the population of the research was all 486 ‘laleh’ primary school male students in the year of 2009-2010, among whom, 61 four-grade participants were finally chosen. th...

Man is a social animal. Academic excellence is updated with the help of social institutions and social institutions are run by cooperation of individuals of society. A correlation existed between society and academics since time immemorial. There is a need to introspect and realize the cooperation between these two. Cooperation is working together to accomplish shared goals. Within cooperative ...

Trends in the current business world towards decentralization, joint ventures and outsourcing of business functions are highlighting a need for new effective ways of sharing information and coordinating activities. One of the main tasks in an (Inter-) networked society is to support people in working together in an electronic world. The field of computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) sets o...

Abstract Cooperative departments and organizations were a ubiquitous but rarely studied aspect of British colonial governance in the twentieth century. The Co-operative College Britain provided specialized training cooperation to students from across Empire. cooperative movement was key part emergence regimes development decades between 1920s 1960s, reflecting their emphasis on modular solution...

• Optimum supply chain management under the carbon-trade policy is addressed. Cooperation among different companies leads to economic and environmental benefits. Cooperative game theory ensures stability of cooperation (grand coalition). CO 2 price evolution, predicted by ARIMA models, affects behavior.

In approximately 3.2% of bird species individuals regularly forgo the opportunity to breed independently and instead breed cooperatively with other conspeci¢cs, either as non-reproductive `helpers' or as co-breeders. The traditional explanation for cooperative breeding is that the opportunities for breeding independently are limited owing to peculiar features of the species' breeding ecology. H...
