MULTI-HOP WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND RELAY METHOD AND RELAY STATION THEREIN
First Claim
1. A relay method in a multi-hop wireless communication system, wherein a base station communicates with a mobile station via a first relay station;
- comprising;
at least one of;
acquiring by a relay station downlink wireless resource allocation information between said base station and said first relay station and between said first relay station and said mobile station, and uplinking wireless resource allocation information between said mobile station and said first relay station and between said relay station and said base station;
wherein at least one of;
when said relay station decides to aid the downlink relay of said relay station, according to the downlink wireless resource allocation information acquired by it, said relay station forwards the relay data received by it, and sent by said base station to said relay station, to said mobile station by using the downlink wireless resource allocated between said relay station and said mobile station; and
when said relay station decides to aid the uplink relay of said relay station, according to the uplink wireless resource allocation information acquired by it, said relay station forwards the relay data received by it, and sent by said mobile station to said relay station, to said base station by using the uplink wireless resource allocated between said relay station and said base station.

Abstract
A relay station, which is originally deployed in the multi-hop wireless communication system and used for relaying the communication between a base station and a mobile station, is referred to as an ordinary relay station, and a relay station is referred to as an aid relay station. The aid relay station can decide whether to provide aid to the ordinary relay station, and can be invisible to the base station and the mobile station, namely, the aid relay station will not generate signaling between itself and the base station or the mobile station, and therefore the aid relay station, when being implemented, will not generate extra signaling overheads in the multi-hop wireless communication system; and at the same time, when the relay quality of an aided relay station is poor, it can be improved by the aid relay station, thereby improving the system performance of the multi-hop wireless communication system.
