Coded Cooperation Diversity in Wireless Relay Network

This paper studies the application of coded cooperation in wireless relay network. In wireless relay network only one user transmit data and the cooperative users assist the active user to get the spatial diversity. Exploit the idle time of active user we get the time diversity along with the spatial diversity. We investigate the rate compatible puncture convolutional (RCPC) code based coded cooperation in a wireless relay network where two relay cooperating with one active user. The effect of various channel conditions on the cooperation is also examined.
