Abstract
Proposes two social-aware relay selection schemes — Midpoint Relay Selection using Social Trust and Battery Level (MRS-ST-BL), and using Social Distance and Battery Level (MRS-SD-BL) — for device-to-device communications underlaying cellular networks. The schemes select relays near the midpoint between source and destination that also carry strong social trust and sufficient battery reserves, improving average network throughput.
