System model under consideration for the simulations presented in this paper. The focus is
on the triangular area in the center of the network. This figure also shows the frequency
reuse pattern for the shared relay and base station coordination under reuse factor 6.
Downlink sum rates for each of the strategies presented in this paper as a function of the
relay transmit power. The solid lines represent reuse factor 1, while the dotted lines
represent reuse factor 6.
Downlink sum rate in one sector versus mobile station position for base station
coordination, shared relaying, and direct transmission. A reuse factor 6 is shown because
the curves are more separated in this case. By adapting between shared relaying and direct
transmission depending on user location, the rates of base station coordination can be
approached.
Future work
Focus on more detailed design of shared relays.
Two-way relaying requires research for interference
mitigation in the uplink.
Combining base station coordination and relaying.
