Abstract
In this letter, we investigate cooperative device-to-device (D2D) communication in an uplink cellular network, where D2D users act as relays for cellular users. We derive the outage probability of a cellular user and the average achievable rate from a D2D transmitter to a D2D receiver in analytic form. We obtain optimal spectrum and power allocation to maximize the total average achievable rate under the outage probability constraint. The validity of the analysis is verified by computer simulations.
