Abstract

We consider a wireless relay network where two sources transmit independent information on mutually orthogonal channels to a common destination with the help of one relay. Based on the expression for the achievable rate in such a network for compress-and-forward relaying without Wyner-Ziv coding, we design mutual-information preserving quantizers for compression at the relay. In the proposed relaying scheme, both the relay and the destination share a fixed set of quantizers, among which the relay selects a suitable one depending on the channel quality on the source-relay links for compression of its received values. Simulations performed in Rayleigh block fading channels reveal that full diversity order of two can be achieved using that scheme. We also comment on the size of the quantizer set and the associated signaling overhead.
