Abstract :
In this letter, an energy-efficient power and rate adaptation algorithm for amplify-and-forward (AF) relay systems is studied with imperfect channel statement information (CSI) at transmitters. In the proposed scheme, energy efficiency (EE) is maximized under the maximum transmit power constraint, the minimum system data-rate constraint and the target packet outage probability constraint. In addition, to solve the EE maximization problem, we propose a low-complexity iterative algorithm. Numerical results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
