High data rate relay transmissions with multiple antennas
Federico Boccardi, Kai Yu, Angeliki Alexiou · IEEE Transactions on Communications · 2009
Herein, we present a novel approach for decode-forward relay transmissions using multiple antennas. In this approach, multiple independent spatial data streams are sent to the destination directly and/or through different relays simultaneously, where the relays are selected in an opportunistic way. We show the efficiency of the proposed approach through simulations.
