This paper investigates the Diversity Multiplexing Tradeoff (DMT) of the generalized quantizeand-forward (GQF) relaying scheme over the slow fading half-duplex multiple-access relay channel (HD-MARC). The compress-and-forward (CF) scheme has been shown to achieve the optimal DMT when the channel state information (CSI) of the relay-destination link is available at the relay. However, having the...

In this paper, we analyze the best relay selection scheme for the soft-decision-and-forward (SDF) cooperative networks with multiple relays. The term ‘best relay selection’ implies that the relay having the largest end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio is selected to transmit in the second phase transmission. The approximate performances in terms of pairwise error probability (PEP) and bit error rat...

We derive the capacity of the state-dependent half-duplex relay channel without source-destination link. The output of the state-dependent half-duplex relay channel depends on the randomly varying channel states of the source-relay and relay-destination links, which are known causally at all three nodes. For this channel, we prove a converse and show the achievability of the capacity based on a...

Distinct types of relay neurons in the hindbrain process somatosensory or viscerosensory information. How neurons choose between these two fates is unclear. We show here that the homeobox gene Lbx1 is essential for imposing a somatosensory fate on relay neurons in the hindbrain. In Lbx1 mutant mice, viscerosensory relay neurons are specified at the expense of somatosensory relay neurons. Thus L...

Relay stations are usually used to enhance the signal strength for the users near cell boundary, thereby extending the cell coverage. However, transmission through a relay station needs two transmission phases. The first phase is from base station to relay station, and the second one is from relay station to mobile station. Thus, using relay station may decrease system capacity due to two-phase...

We consider the wireless Rayleigh fading relay channel with finite complex input constellations. Assuming global knowledge of the channel state information and perfect synchronization, upper and lower bounds on the achievable rate, for the full-duplex relay, as well as the more practical halfduplex relay (in which the relay cannot transmit and receive simultaneously), are studied. Assuming the ...

Link adaptive relaying (LAR) is one of the most popular techniques which employs soft power scaling approaches at the relay nodes. On the other. Buffer-aided relaying is a new paradigm for wireless cooperative networks. Buffer-Aided Relaying With Adaptive Link Selection – Fixed and Mixed Rate. A wireless relay is a codecadaptive RF receiver with single channel relay. It helps easily deployment ...

An amplify-and-forward (AF) wireless relay network consisting of a one-source-one-destination node pair and cooperative multiple N relay nodes is proposed in three adverse wireless communication environments, i.e., jamming, node geometry, and channel uncertainty. Based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion, the optimal amplifying relay matrix in three adverse wireless environments w...
