Opportunistic Relaying (OR) and Selection Decode-and-Forward (SDF) cooperation protocols can both substantially improve the performance of wireless networks but fundamentally differ in utilized redundancy, relays, and channel knowledge. To analyze when SDF or OR improves error and data rate, we (1) derive their general outage probability and capacity for arbitrary relay configurations, (2) systematically benchmark both approaches in two-hop configurations, (3) study how often beneficial configurations occur in large networks, and, finally, condition our capacity results by this occurrence probability. Our results clearly show that OR maximizes the outage capacity at high acceptable error rate while SDF succeeds if a low error rate is required. SDF performs best if even the relays can cooperate among themselves, supported frequently in networks with more than three neighbors. Consequently, cooperating relays, adapting between OR and SDF, and joining these two approaches should be the focus of future protocol design. To this end, our paper provides a theoretical basis, adaptation rules, and design guidelines.
