Corrections on "Cooperative Communications Using Reliability-Forwarding Relays"
Ümit Aygölü, Ertuğrul Başar · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 2013
In the above named paper [ibid., vol. 61, no. 5, pp. 1776–1785, May 2013], the authors correct an error from equation (12) and (13), on the variance of z given g and s that is expressed correctly in (14). This correction affects (15), (16), (17) and finally the optimal combining coefficient αMDC,igiven in (18) which should be modified as noted by the authors. Note that, the approximated maximum deflection coefficient given in Lemma 2 should be similarly corrected and (32) should be modified as further noted.
