Abstract

This paper studies a destination-driven cooperative diversity protocol for multihop wireless networks. The regenerative outage performances of the proposed protocol are developed over independent but not identically distributed (i.n.d) Nakagami fading channels. The numerical results show that the proposed protocol not only provides an effective selection scheme for cooperative nodes but achieves a good tradeoff between the system performance and the processing cost (e.g., power consumption) of the destination receiver.
