Relay Coordination Schemes for Two-Hop Networks: Two-Cell Case
Kasun T. Hemachandra, Norman C. Beaulieu · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 2015
The outage probability of a two-hop coordinated decode-and-forward relay network is investigated. The case of two interfering cells is considered. This is analogous to the case when network coordination is performed with the dominant cochannel interfering cell. Different levels of network coordination are studied and their performances are compared. Exact expressions are derived for of the system for each coordination method. The impact of user location randomness on the outage probability is investigated.
