Abstract
Multi-relay cooperation, which can highly improve the link quality, is shown to be a promising approach for emerging wireless networks. This paper proposes an Asynchronous Multi-Relay Cooperation (AMRC) protocol using rateless codes in order to enhance the bandwidth efficiency of multi-relay transmissions. The protocol performance is analyzed and optimized so as to achieve the maximal end-to-end throughput.

Analysis and optimization of a rateless coded joint relay system
We consider the code design for a half-duplex 4- node joint relay system with two sources, one relay, and one destination. The relay combines the information from both sources and transmits it to the destination together with both sources. We consider ...
A Rateless Coded Protocol for Half-Duplex Wireless Relay Channels
We propose a rateless coded protocol for a half-duplex wireless relay channel where all links experience independent quasi-static Rayleigh fading and the instantaneous channel realizations are unavailable at the transmitters. We assume that the network ...
Distributed Serially Concatenated Codes for Multi-Source Cooperative Relay Networks
In this paper, we propose a distributed turbo-like coding scheme for a multi-source relay scenario where multiple sources communicate with a destination with the help of a common relay, which uses the decode-and-forward strategy and operates in half-...
