Abstract :
In this letter, we introduce and analyze a detect-and-forward scheme for cooperative communications over fading channels based on the transmission of partial source-relay channel state information. The proposed scheme is simple to implement and its efficiency is demonstrated through constrained capacity calculation and throughput evaluation based on practical coding schemes.
