Performance analysis of selective DF relay networks over Rician fading channels

In this paper, we present the performance of selective combining decode-and-forward relay networks in independent and non identical distributed Rician fading channels. The outage probability, moment generation function, symbol error probability and average channel capacity are derived in closed-form...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we present the performance of selective combining decode-and-forward relay networks in independent and non identical distributed Rician fading channels. The outage probability, moment generation function, symbol error probability and average channel capacity are derived in closed-form using the SNR statistical characteristics. After that, we analyze the outage probability at high SNR and then we optimize it. Finally, for comparison with analytical formulas, we perform some Monte-Carlo simulations.
