Abstract :
The downlink performance of a dual-cell relay enhanced wireless network is investigated. A single relay is shared by the two base stations in the system. The relay is assumed to be placed in a region covered by both base stations. The relay station is operating in the decode-and-forward mode. Closed-form approximations which follow the exact results extremely closely are derived for the outage probability and the ergodic rate of the system.
