To mitigate MAI and exploit full advantages of cooperation,the Probabilistic Data Association (PDA) is developed at the relay nodes and the base node. Simulation results demonstrate that some performance gains can be obtained by the PDA detector over the Minimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) detector at high Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and conversely at low SNR.
