摘要:

Customers’ satisfaction with services is reflected by quality of experience (QoE). Insofar, most studies on cooperative communication have been focused on improving the QoE of source users. However, the improvement of a source user’s QoE is obtained at cost of degradation of the relay user’s QoE. On the other hand, cooperative communications can achieve performance similar to that of a conventional multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system by forming virtual MIMO arrays. Hence, to improve the QoE performance of relay users, this article proposes the concept of a belief threshold at the destination user and a new cooperative scheme based on the belief threshold destination (BTD) technique, while without decaying the BER performance of the communication system.

However, the improvement of a source user’s QoE is obtained at cost of degradation of the relay user’s QoE. On the other hand, cooperative communications can achieve performance similar to that of a conventional multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system by forming virtual MIMO arrays. Hence, to improve the QoE performance of relay users, this article proposes the concept of a belief threshold at the destination user and a new cooperative scheme based on the belief threshold destination (BTD) technique, while without decaying the BER performance of the communication system.
