An embodiment method includes receiving, by a first user equipment (UE), a message, for a second UE, transmitted over a plurality of resource blocks (RBs) on behalf of a communications controller and determining a plurality of log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) in accordance with the received plurality of RBs. The method also includes transmitting, a subset of the determined LLRs to the second UE.

1. A method comprising: detecting, by a cooperating user equipment (UE), a message transmitted from a communications controller to a target UE, the target UE being an intended recipient of the message, using a plurality of resource blocks (RBs), wherein each of the plurality of RBs includes a different set of time-frequency resources;determining a plurality of reliability indications in accordance with the plurality of RBs, the plurality of reliability indications corresponding to the plurality of RBs; andtransmitting, wirelessly by the cooperating UE to the target UE, a subset of the determined plurality of reliability indications, the cooperating UE being different than the target UE and the subset of the plurality of reliability indications corresponding to a subset of the plurality of RBs. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising selecting a portion of reliability indications of the plurality of reliability indications, wherein transmitting the subset of the determined plurality of reliability indications comprises transmitting the selected portion of reliability indications. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of determining includes identifying at least one RB carrying the message with the target UE as the intended recipient, and determining a reliability indication for each of the at least one identified RB; and wherein the step of transmitting includes transmitting each determined reliability indication for each of the at least one identified RB to the target UE. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising demodulating data of the message to produce demodulated data, wherein determining the plurality of reliability indications further comprises determining the plurality of reliability indications in accordance with the demodulated data. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein demodulating the data is phase-shift keying (PSK) demodulating the data, frequency-shift keying (FSK) demodulating the data, amplitude-shift keying (ASK) demodulating the data, or quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) demodulating the data. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining a plurality of signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) for the plurality of RBs, and selecting the subset of the determined plurality of reliability indications in accordance with the plurality of SNRs. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein determining the plurality of SNRs further comprises determining the plurality of SNRs using an effective exponential SNR mapping (EESM) average of sampled SNRs at different tones of the plurality of RBs. 8. The method of claim 6, wherein selecting the subset of the determined plurality of reliability indications further comprises determining a subset of RBs of the plurality of RBs, wherein RBs of the subset of RBs have SNRs greater than a threshold, and wherein selecting the subset of the determined plurality of reliability indications further comprises selecting the subset of the determined plurality of reliability indications corresponding to the subset of RBs. 9. The method of claim 8, further comprising receiving, by the cooperating UE, the threshold. 10. The method of claim 6, further comprising: transmitting, by the cooperating UE to a central controller, the plurality of SNRs; andreceiving, by the cooperating UE from the central controller, an indication message, wherein the indication message identifies the subset of the determined plurality of reliability indications. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) for the subset of the plurality of RBs at the target UE are lower than SNRs for the subset of the plurality of RBs at the cooperating UE. 12. A method comprising: receiving, by a central controller from a first cooperating UE, a plurality of first signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) measurements corresponding to a plurality of resource blocks (RBs), wherein a plurality of reliability indications correspond to the plurality of RBs, and each RB includes an individual set of time-frequency resources; andtransmitting, by the central controller, to the first cooperating UE a message indicating a subset of RBs from the plurality of RBs, wherein the subset of RBs correspond to a subset, of the plurality of reliability indications to be transmitted wirelessly by the first cooperating UE, the subset of the plurality of reliability indications corresponding to a subset of the plurality of RBs. 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising transmitting, by the central controller to a target UE, a message indicating the subset of RBs from the plurality of RBs, wherein the subset of RBS correspond to the subset of the plurality of reliability indications to be transmitted by the first cooperating UE. 14. The method of claim 12, wherein the central controller is a UE. 15. The method of claim 12, wherein the central controller is a stand-alone device. 16. The method of claim 12, further comprising: receiving, by the central controller from a second cooperating UE, a plurality of second SNR measurements corresponding to the plurality of RBs; andselecting the subset of RBs from the plurality of RBs in accordance with the plurality of first SNR measurements and the plurality of second SNR measurements. 17. A central controller comprising: a processor; anda non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing programming for execution by the processor, the programming including instructions to: receive, from a first cooperating UE, a plurality of first signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) measurements corresponding to a plurality of resource blocks (RBs), wherein a plurality of reliability indications correspond to the plurality of RBs, and each RB includes an individual set of time-frequency resources, andtransmit to the first cooperating UE a message indicating a subset of RBs from the plurality of RBs, wherein the subset of RBs correspond to a subset, of the plurality of reliability indications, to be transmitted wirelessly by the first cooperating UE, the subset of the plurality of reliability indications corresponding to a subset of the plurality of RBs. 18. The central controller of claim 17, wherein the programming includes further instructions to: receive from a second cooperating UE, a plurality of second SNR measurements corresponding to the plurality of RBs; andselect the subset of RBs from the plurality of RBs in accordance with the plurality of first SNR measurements and the plurality of second SNR measurements.
