We propose a minimum mean-square error (MMSE)based signal forwarding technique for a cooperative relay network. Transmission of information between multiple source-destination pairs through a set of relays is considered. Cooperation between relays has been shown to improve substantially the bit-error rate (BER) performance as compared to noncooperative relays under a total power constraint. A general model for relay cooperation has been considered; however, for a single source-destination scenario, the proposed MMSE relaying strategy has been shown to be a product of receiver and transmitter beamformers at the relay layer.
