Abstract :
Cooperative diversity is a method to enhance throughput in a wireless network by cooperating with neighboring terminals to transmit signals. In the circumstance where multiple terminals cooperate, the throughput can be further improved if the relaying terminals weigh their transmit signals. In this paper, we study such a cooperative system and its performance under different scenarios.
