摘要：A method for allocating resources in a multi-hop relay network includesestablishing one or more relay links, single-hop access links, and multi-hop access links.

The method also includes iteratively repeating the following steps until a single-hop datarate is approximately equal to a multi-hop data rate: allocating a first number of slots tothe multi-hop access links; dividing the first number of slots among the multi-hop accesslinks; allocating a second number of slots to the relay links; allocating a third number ofslots to the single-hop access links; dividing the third number of slots among the single-hop access links; and comparing the single-hop data rate to the multi-hop data rate. Themethod also includes, upon the single-hop data rate being approximately equal to themulti-hop data rate, provisioning the first number of slots to each of the multi-hopaccess links, the second number of slots to each of the relay links, and the third numberof slots to each of the single-hop access links.
