Cooperative relay (CR) is a favorable technique to provide better spectral efficiency and enhance the cell coverage area in a cost-effective manner. However, several undesired issues, such as high-power consumption, arise due to use of a high number of relay nodes (RNs) in the network, Moreover, in...
