Foreword
Over the past years, there has been a considerable research activity in the field of wireless cooperative communications and networking. By now, this field has reached a mature level and there is a definite need to organize research results and present them in a unified manner. This is precisely the objective and strength of this book: to deliver in a coherent and consistent story the stateof-the-art in cooperative communications and networking. This grueling effort will benefit graduate students in advanced topics in wireless communications, active researchers to identify new directions, as well as designers to stay current for the latest findings. The authors of Cooperative Communications and Networking – Technologies and System Design have delivered extensive and fundamental results in this subject. From this vantage point, they were able to provide a timely and comprehensive view of this exciting topic. To allow f
