Various forms of cooperation occurred in wireless networks though multiple layers including physical, MAC and routing layers have broaden traditional cooperative communications concepts. Although several research have been successfully proposed to design efficient MAC and routing protocols for wireless cooperative networks, the individual cannot guarantee the overall network performance. The cross-layer design is being investigated as a promising approach for QoS provisioning for cooperative wireless networks. However, the cooperation may not be always the best choice when some situations are given, and there is a tradeoff between the cooperative and non-cooperative operations. In addition, the complexity of cross-layer control has also been remained as a challenge to hinder the cooperative cross-layer into real practice. In this paper, we proposed a novel crosslayer architecture with QoS Provisioning for Cooperative Wireless Networking, which can efficiently decide the cooperative operation and choose appropriate cross-layer parameters through sensitive analysis. Our contribution includes two folders: (1) Proposed a novel cross-layer framework for cooperative wireless networks (2) Proposed decision methods for cooperation choice and cross-layer parameter selection.
