  • Abstract
    Power allocation strategies are developed for amplify-and-forward cooperative relaying networks in fading channels. The average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and outage performances are optimized in some sense by maximizing the sum and product, respectively, of the average SNR of the direct link and an upper bound on the SNR of the relay link. The power allocation strategies require knowledge of only the mean strengths of the channels.
