Abstract :
The outage probability of a two-hop coordinated decode-and-forward relay network is investigated. Relay coordination is performed only with the dominant interferer. Different levels of network coordination are studied and their performances are compared. Exact expressions are derived for the outage probability of a particular mobile user for each coordination scheme. Asymptotic outage probability is derived to identify the diversity and coding gains for each coordination scheme.
