Abstract
In this chapter, cooperative transmission schemes are introduced for networks that consist of more than two users. Following the assumptions made in the previous chapter, we assume that, at each instant in time, only one user acts as the source while the other users serve as relays that help forward the source’s message to the destination. In this case, the relays can together form a distributed antenna array and adopt conventional MIMO signal processing techniques, such as beamforming, antenna selection, or space-time coding etc., to enhance communication performance. As the number of relays increases, more radio resources and more degrees of freedom can be pooled together and utilized jointly to assist the source’s transmission. However, to exploit these advantages, one must overcome the challenges posed by the individual resource constraints and the lack of coordination among relays.
