Abstract
A source node of a communication system selects one of a direct mode, a multi-hop mode, and a superposition mode as a transmission mode to be used for signal transmission from the source node to a destination node, taking into account data rates for a link between the source node and the destination node, a link between the source node and a delay node, and a link between the relay node and the destination node, thereby increasing the data rate, i.e., the throughput, of the entire communication system.
