In this paper, communication over imperfectly-known fading channels with different degrees of cooperation is studied. The three-node relay channel is considered. It is assumed that communication starts with the network training phase in which the receivers estimate the fading coefficients of their respective channels. In the data transmission phase, amplify-and-forward and decode-and-forward relaying schemes are employed. For different cooperation protocols, achievable rate expressions are obtained. These achievable rate expressions are then used to find the optimal resource allocation strategies. In particular, the fraction of total time or bandwidth that needs to be allocated to the relay for best performance is identified. Under a total power constraint, optimal allocation of power between the source and relay is investigated. Finally, bit energy requirements in the low-power regime are studied.
