10.1 INTRODUCTION
In wireless communication, signal fading caused by multi-path propagation
is a particularly serious channel detriment. In order to address this issue, co-
operative communication mechanisms [1, 73, 74] have been proposed as an
effective way of exploiting spatial di v ersity to improve the quality of wireless
links. By encouraging single-antenna devices to share their antennas cooper-
atively, a number of potential benefits ...
