Abstract
Cooperative networks enhance the overall communication performance by combining signals from relay nodes and direct signal. In this paper, we analyze the performance of cooperative communication systems which use mixed relaying protocols. By assuming several relay nodes exist between the source node and destination node, we consider the systems use not a single relaying protocol but both decode-and-forward and amplify-and-forward protocols randomly. We analyze the effect of each relying protocol for the overall system performance, and also consider the performance depending on the relay location. Differential modulation scheme which demodulates signal without channel state information is adopted where it can be applicable fast varying channel such as railway environments.
