Abstract
Distributed-MIMO multi-stage communication networks are known to yield superior performance over traditional networks which is due to the facilitated MIMO channels as well as gains obtained from relaying. The emphasis of this paper is on a suitable allocation of resources to each terminal so as to maximise the end-to-end throughput, which is proportional to the capacity offered by such network. The contribution of this paper is the derivation of an explicit low-complexity near-optimum resource allocation strategy, the precision and performance of which is also analysed for a two-stage relaying network.
