Scheduling in a Randomized Relay Network
Ari Hottinen, Tiina Heikkinen · 2006
The paper studies scheduling in a randomized relay network. In the proposed in-band relaying scheme relays pseudo-randomly vary the transmission signal power and phase, in order to generate time-varying received signal to the target node (destination receiver). The destination schedules the transmissions of multiple users so that the signal is transmitted when the received effective signal quality is high and so that total signal-noise-ratio (or in alternate formulations capacity) averaged over all users is maximized.
