N2 - This paper, the impact of limited resources on achievable rates in relay channels is investigated. Resource limitation is modeled (as previously proposed) by (R̄) which constrains the rate at which a relay can reliably decode or encode data. With this constraint in hand, the achievable rates for two commonly studied protocols, decode-and-forward and estimate-nd-forwarad are derived and_compared. In particular, the case of severe resource limitation (R 0) is considered. While decode-and-forward is the superior protocol for most relay locations (topologies) under no rate constraints, estimate-and forward almost always offers superior performance when relaying with strong rate constraints.
