Abstract

In this work we analyze a novel queueing system to model cooperative wireless networks with two relay nodes and simultaneous packet reception. We consider a network of three saturated source users, say a central and two background source users, two relay nodes and a common destination node. Source users transmit packets to the destination node with the cooperation of relays, which assist them by re-transmitting their blocked packets. We assume that the central source user forwards its blocked packets to both relay nodes in order to exploit both the spatial diversity they provide, and the broadcast nature of wireless communication. Moreover, each relay node receives also blocked packets from a dedicated background source user. We study a three-dimensional Markov process, investigate its stability condition and show that its steady-state performance is expressed in terms of the solution of a Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problem. Performance metrics are obtained, and numerical results show insights into the system behavior. Some computational issues are also discussed.
