Abstract
In this paper, we derive the capacity of the Gaussian
degraded â cheapâ relay channel, consisting of nodes using â cheapâ
radios operating in TDD mode when transmitting and sending in
the same frequency band. The TDD model captures a practical
limitation of most of the RF radios used in commercial wireless
systems. The proof of achievability relies on a combination of
superposition encoding and list decoding, while the converse is
derived using the min-cut max-flow theorem for networks with
â cheapâ nodes (previously derived by the authors). Even with
â cheapâ radios, our capacity analysis shows that cooperative
coding is beneficial and has a capacity advantage over direct
transmission.
