Adaptive relay selection based on channel gain and link distance for cooperative out-band device-to-device networks
Device-to-device (D2D) communication is one of the key enabling technologies for 5G to support many connections efficiently. In a cooperative out-band D2D communication network, relay nodes have an essential role in receiving and forwarding information signals from source (S) to destination (D), mak...
