Interference Management in Wireless Relay Networks

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Today's wireless communication services have come a long way since the introduction of the first generation of cellular systems in the early 1980s. The demand for wireless access in high-speed multi-media applications, environmental monitoring and telemedicine has been increasing steadily. New generations of wireless systems and networks can only accommodate this demand by relying on better resource management and improved transmission technologies. It has been recognized that future wireless communication systems and networks will be based on the emerging technology of cooperative/relay communications. The concept of cooperative and relay communications is that nodes (or users) in a network cooperate to transmit data from a source to a destination. This technology has many potential advantages over conventional point-to-point communications, including configuration flexibility, better coverage, improved performance, higher capacity, etc.
