Abstract: Systems and methods may include one or more devices associated with a relay network. In some examples, a relay device may be configured to determine, based at least partly on a control signal received from a destination device on a first carrier frequency, channel estimates for a channel between the relay device and the destination device. The device may determine, based at least partly on the channel estimates, a weighting function for transmissions from the relay device to the destination device. The device may generate baseband samples based on a down-conversion, from a second carrier frequency to a baseband frequency, of one or more incoming RF signals and apply the weighting function to the baseband samples to generate weighted baseband samples. The device may generate an outgoing RF signal based on an up-conversion of the weighted baseband samples from the baseband frequency to the first carrier frequency.

Abstract: Systems and methods to accomplish a power control system in a MANET are described herein. To reduce detectability of the MANET, the controller 310 can reduce transmit power at individual links while operating the link's modulation and coding data rate and data queue backlog at levels that are sufficient to meet the user's offered load.
