COOPERATIVE COMMUNICATIONS TECHNIQUES

摘要

Techniques are disclosed involving communications between source and destination devices. Such communications may involve multiple cooperating devices that retransmit (e.g., simultaneously retransmit) transmissions sent by a source device. Thus, the delivery of transmissions from source devices to destination devices may involve two or more "hops" (e.g., a first "hop" comprising an initial transmission, and a second "hop" comprising two or more relay transmissions).
