User Cooperation and Multipath Transmission

This chapter first reviews the literature on user cooperation at different layers of the network protocol stack. Then various issues of multipath transmission at the transport layer are discussed. After that, the protocol details of the IETF solution, MPTCP, are introduced. The related studies on MPTCP are surveyed at the end of this chapter.
