Abstract	In cellular networks, a mobile station (MS) may be located in the coverage hole or out of the coverage of the base station (BS). In such a scenario, one or more relay stations (RSs) can be used to facilitate the transmission. Here, a threshold- based opportunistic cooperative ARQ transmission scheme is proposed. Based on this scheme, the transmission between the BS and the MS can be separated into two parts: firstly, the transmission between BS and RSs (BS-RSs link) and secondly, the transmission between RSs and MS (RSs-MS link). The proposed scheme is different from the conventional ACK/NACK used for unicast transmission, in which two new types of ARQ messages are introduced for multicast transmission, namely, the relay-associated ACK/NACK (i.e., R-ACK/R-NACK) and the cooperative ACK/NACK (i.e., C-ACK/C-NACK), for BS-RSs link and RSs-MS link, respectively. A pre-defined threshold is applied to evaluate the reliability of the BS-RSs link. If the number of reliable RSs is larger than the threshold value, the reliable RSs will transmit the packet to the MS in a cooperative manner. Since reliable transmission exists in the BS-RSs link, the BS will release the packet and further transmission of this packet occurs only between reliable RSs and the MS. Therefore, the proposed scheme can reduce the latency of cellular networks and the processing burden on the BS as well as achieve higher throughput as shown in the performance analysis and simulation results.
