Abstract:

With the development of wireless communication,cooperative communication technology,such as relay,is regarded as one of the key technologies in future wireless communication system.Relay can be configured to provide coverage extension and capacity increase in a cost-effective manner.Currently,the study on fixed relay has been fruitful,and mobile relay is becoming a hot topic.Due to the characteristic of the mobile relay itself,it brings many benefits while posing some new challenges.In this paper,a survey on mobile relay is presented,which first demonstrates the applications of mobile relay and then summarizes the related key technologies.

Key words: mobile relay;cooperative diversity;resource allocation;relay selection
