Abstract It is already theoretically presented in previous work that multiple cognitive relay improves the throughput of cognitive networks by increasing diversity in both spatial and temporary domain. According to observation and analysis, huge amounts of redundancies exist when implementing Decode-and-Forward (DF) in a distributed relay network. To solve the issue, a so-called code-assist scheme is proposed in this paper to eliminate redundancies. By such a scheme, network coding is integrated with multiple cognitive relay. It is proved that the achievable throughput of cognitive users approaches to its theoretical upper-bound under the scheme. Moreover, this scheme also helps to decrease the effective buffer size for relay. Simulation results show that the scheme is promising and efficient.
