Abstract :
This letter considers a cooperative network with multiple source-destination pairs and one energy harvesting relay. The outage probability experienced by users in this network is characterized by taking the spatial randomness of user locations into consideration. In addition, the cooperation among users is modeled as a canonical coalitional game and the grand coalition is shown to be stable in the addressed scenario. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the accuracy of the developed analytical results.
