Hybrid beamforming via large antenna arrays has shown a great potential for increasing data rate in cellular networks by delivering multiple data streams simultaneously. In this paper, several beamforming design algorithms are proposed…

Distributed transmit beamforming enables cooperative radios to act as one virtual antenna array, extending their communications' range beyond the capabilities of a single radio. Most existing distributed beamforming approaches rely on the…

We propose, analyze and demonstrate an architecture for scalable cooperative reception. In a cluster of N + 1 receive nodes, one node is designated as the final receiver, and the N other nodes act as amplify-and-forward relays which adapt…

Energy-efficient communication is an important issue in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consisting of large number of energy-constrained sensor nodes. Indeed, sensor nodes have different energy budgets assigned to data transmission at…

Cooperative beamforming in relay networks is considered, in which a source transmits to its destination with the help of a set of cooperating nodes. The source first transmits locally. The cooperating nodes that receive the source signal…
