Accepted version of a paper in the book: 2011 2nd Wireless Communication, Vehicular Technology, Information Theory and Aerospace & Electronic Systems Technology (Wireless VITAE). Published version available from the IEEE: http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/WIRELESSVITAE.2011.5940871 While the benefits of cooperative diversity have been well studied in the literature, cooperative MAC protocol design has also attracted much attention recently. In the single-relay Cooperative Automatic Repeat reQuest (C-ARQ) protocol, the best relay node is selected in a distributed manner by relays using different backoff time before packet retransmission. However, this relay selection scheme does not work efficiently in a dense network scenario, due to possible high collision probability among different contending relays. In this paper, we propose an optimized relay selection scheme to maximize system energy efficiency by reducing collision probability. The energy efficiency performance by the proposed optimal relay selection scheme is verified by simulations.
