Abstract-We investigate optimal resource allocation for delaylimited cooperative communication in time varying wireless networks. Motivated by real-time applications that have stringent delay constraints, we develop dynamic cooperation strategies that make optimal use of network resources to achieve a target outage probability (reliability) for each user subject to average power constraints. Using the technique of Lyapunov optimization, we first present a general framework to solve this problem and then derive quasi-closed form solutions for several cooperative protocols proposed in the literature.
In particular, the research in REF studied the dynamic resource allocation for delay limited cooperative communication networks and developed dynamic cooperation strategies to achieve a target outage probability.
