Abstract

In this paper a improving relay selection scheme based on the coalitional game is designed in the multi-user wireless networks. We firstly analyze the model of mutil-user cooperation networks. Then a brief introduction of the coalition concepts is given. In our strategy, source node and relay nodes constitute a coalition in order to increase the transmission rate and lower the BER of system. One coalition contains only one source. However, the relays that we consider can be the members of different coalitions. So how many coalitions a node is in takes into consideration in the scheme. Finally, we present the simulation results of the relay selection scheme.
