Abstract
In this work, we explore the introduction of distributed space-time codes in decode-and-forward (DF) protocols. We propose a new Incomplete DF protocol, based on a partial decoding at the relays. This strategy allows the new protocol to bring both full diversity and full symbol rate. Outage probabilities and simulation results show that the Incomplete DF protocol has better performance than any existing DF protocol and than NAF protocols using the same space-time codes.
