Abstract

This work proposes an analytical framework to study how relay selection\nstrategies perform in half- and full-duplex deployments by combining renewal\ntheory and stochastic geometry. Specifically, we assume that the network nodes\n-- operating in either half- or full-duplex mode -- are scattered according to\na two-dimensional homogeneous Poisson point process to compute the relay\nselection cost by using a semi-Markov process. Our results show: (i) fixed\nrelay outperforms the reactive option in either cases, (ii) the performance\nof both reactive and fixed relay strategies depends on the self-interference\nattenuation in full-duplex scenarios, evincing when they outperform the\nhalf-duplex option, and (iii) the reactive relay selection suffers from\nselecting relays at hop basis, while the fixed relay selection benefits most\nfrom the full-duplex communication.\n
