Transmission for Half-Duplex Relay in Fading Channel and Rateless Code Configuration

摘要

In one aspect of the invention, a method for transmission in a wireless communication system includes selecting by a signal destination one of a source-destination direct transmission, a decode-forward relay transmission, and a compress-forward transmission, responsive to channel gains between a signal source and a relay, between the signal source and the signal destination, and between the relay and the signal destination; informing a selected transmission mode from the selecting step to the signal source and the relay; and operating in the selected transmission mode by the relay.
