Abstract
In this paper, we design and implement a cognitive relay protocol (CogRelay) in MAC layer to efficiently relay data packets. The proposed scheme chooses high quality relay links to prevent unnecessary relay, thereby enhancing relay efficiency and acquiring higher throughput. The relaying overhead is light since there is no extra transmission compared with direct communication. Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) testbed experiments show that CogRelay can efficiently boost packet reception ratio and throughput in multi-node relay network.

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 ...

In this paper, we quantify the benefits of employing relay station in large-coverage cognitive radio systems which opportunistically access the licensed spectrum of some smallcoverage primary systems scattered inside. Through analytical study, we show ...
