A method of cooperative relay selection based on network coding security is proposed for relay selection problem of cooperative communication system security in networked multi-relay scenarios, which is different from the existing relay node selection method. The algorithm not only merged with timestamp and homomorphic signature to construct the node degree of safety to find reliable relay, at ...

Cooperative communication is regarded as a key technology in wireless networks, including cognitive radio networks (CRNs), which increases the diversity order of the signal to combat the unfavorable effects of the fading channels, by allowing distributed terminals to collaborate through sophisticated signal processing. Underlay CRNs have strict interference constraints towards the secondary use...

Cooperative relay is a promising technology to provide better end-to-end performance for wireless communication through spatial diversity. Most of previous study on relay networks concentrates on lower layer performance. However, how to design the relay network for standard transport control protocol (TCP), which is very important for application layer service, is rarely investigated. We focus ...

In this article, we consider the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of relay-assisted communication through correlated frequency selective fading channels. Recent results for relays in flat fading channels demonstrate a performance and implementation advantage in using relay selection as opposed to more complicated distributed space-time coding schemes. Motivated by these results, we explore...

The authors investigate the effect of feedback delay on the average capacity of a decode-and-forward cooperative network with relay selection. In particular, a multi-relay cooperative scenario is considered, where the best relay is selected from a subset of relays that are able to decode the source information correctly. In this selection scenario, the authors assume that the destination termin...

Energy-efficient communication is an important requirement for mobile relay networks due to the limited battery power of user terminals. This paper considers energy-efficient relaying schemes through selection of mobile relays in cooperative cellular systems with asymmetric traffic. The total energy consumption per information bit of the battery-powered terminals, i.e., the mobile station (MS) ...

—Two-way amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying networks have been widely studied because of its simplicity and high spectral efficiency. In this paper, we investigate the relay selection problem and the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) for two-way AF relaying systems over independent flat Rayleigh fading channels. We first derive the closed-form expression of the minimum total transmit power ...

We propose an incremental relaying protocol in conjunction with partial relay selection with the aim of making efficient use of the degrees of freedom of the channels as well as improving the performance of dual hop relaying with partial relay selection (DRPRS). Specifically, whenever the direct link from the source to the destination is not favorable to decoding, the destination will request t...

In this letter, we propose an efficient relay antenna selection algorithm for the amplify and forward (AF) two-way multipleinput multiple-output (MIMO) relay systems with analogue network coding (ANC). The proposed algorithm greedily selects the additional receivetransmit antenna pair that provides the maximum sum-rate. An iterative computation method is also designed to evaluate the sum-rate e...
