Abstract
In this paper we address the resource allocation problem in cooperative relay network. We provide a comparative analysis of two basic protocols namely Amplify and Forward (AF) and Decode and Forward (DF), by implementing different sub-carrier allocation techniques with optimized power allocation. Our analysis is focused on total achievable system throughput and achievable individual throughput for each user.
