Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and an implementing apparatus for cooperative multi-hop routing in a wireless network. According to the method the diversity gains and the interrupt probabilities in a cooperative communication manner between master nodes in the route are obtained, and the segmenting mode for sending packet data is determined accordingly, thus implementing cooperative communication in a multi-hop route, where signals having same information are sent through different paths, and multiple independently faded copies of data symbols may be obtained at a receiver end, thus obtaining higher reception reliability and higher transmission capacity, and improving performance of a communication process.
