Abstract: In this paper, we suggest a distributed relay selection (DRS) algorithm for energy harvesting (EH) systems. Each candidate relay amplifies the source packet only when its signal to noise ratio (SNR) exceeds SNR threshold γ_th. Relay nodes harvest energy from radio frequency (RF) signals received from the source. Both harvesting duration and SNR threshold γ_th are optimised to maximise the throughput. Our results are compared to opportunistic amplify and forward (OAF) and uniform relay selection (URS).
