The technique of cooperative communication has recently gained momentum in the research community; this technique utilizes the notion of relay, as an intermediate node between the source and the destination, to enhance the overall system performance. In this paper we ex-plored the benefits of adaptive cooperation, in which the relay adapts its relaying process in response to channel conditions and data priorities. We are particularly interested in applying this concept to the cell border situation, in which two mobile nodes acting as destinations com-municate with base stations (sources) through a relay. The adaptive cooperation is proposed here since the transmission channel conditions (Packet Error Rate for example) and data priori-ties are not the same for both mobiles. We show that using the adaptive resource allocation technique in combination with the cross layer design techniques, we can achieve Real-Time data constraints with no additional overhead.
