Abstract
Conference Title: 2018 14th International Wireless Communications & Mobile Computing Conference (IWCMC) Conference Start Date: 2018, June 25 Conference End Date: 2018, June 29 Conference Location: Limassol, Cyprus This paper explored cooperative relaying in the presence of energy constrained relays with data storage facility. The relays depend only on the source signal to harvest energy and forward signal to the destination. The relay is selected according to the instantaneous strength of the wireless link. The strongest link among all links on both sides i.e., source-relay and relaydestination links is selected for relay to receive or transmit data, respectively. Two protocols are used for energy harvesting and information transfer namely: ”power splitting based relaying” and ”time switching based relaying”. We evaluate the outage probability performance of the presented scheme using Monte Carlo simulations. The results show that TSR performs better than PSR protocol.
