Preface

Relaying techniques, in which a source node communicates to a destination node with the help of a relay, have been proposed as a cost-effective solution to address the increasing demand for high data rates and reliable services over the air. As such, it is crucial to design relay systems that are able to not only provide high spectral efficiency, but also fully exploit the diversity of the relay channel. With this objective in mind, this brief aims to report on recent advances on achievable rates, power allocation schemes, and error performance for half-duplex (HD) and full-duplex (FD) amplify-and-forward (AF) single-relay s
