Abstract

This paper introduces a relaying scheme of combining cellular networks to establish the relay selection mechanism in the heterogeneous cooperative network model, then based on the system capacity analysis, propose an optimal relay selection scheme with the constraint of the specific outage probability and power allocation. And the multi-hop nodes can act as cooperative mobile relays to ensure the normal communication, to save costs and energy consumption caused by deploying a large number of fixed relays. Simulation results show that the proposed relay node selection algorithm can guide how to dispose the fixed number of relays in the cell and how to arrange these relays to improve the performance of the ergodic capacity of the system.
