This project proposes a cooperative transmission link in wireless networks as a transmitter cluster and a receiver cluster. And then propose a cooperative communication protocol for establishment of these clusters and for cooperative transmission of data. We derive the upper bound of the capacity of the protocol, and we analyze the end-to-end robustness of the protocol to data-packet loss, along with the tradeoff between energy consumption and error rate.
