In this paper we present a requested relaying protocol that helps mitigating multipath and shadowing effects in wireless networks. In our approach it is assumed that the destined mobile station has not been able to receive information from the base station and sends a request to surrounding terminals. Those terminals able to receive the request act as relays and help to transmit information from the base station to the destination. Performance analysis with respect to probability of decoding error and outage probability have been made with the results that both can be enormously improved by exploiting diversity. Additionally, order of diversity is defined and applied to our relaying approach as well.
