In this paper, we investigate the outage performance of decode-and-forward (DF) based opportunistic cooperative communications with channel estimation errors at the receivers under Rayleigh fading channels, in which the effect of the direct link has been explicitly evaluated. To be specific, the exact expression of outage probability has been derived for arbitrary values of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)...
This paper offers the statistical analysis of relay assignment in cooperative Decode-and-Forward (DF) networks based on order statistics. By assuming a set of N independent Rayleigh fading channels, first the channel with r-th biggest SNR is analyzed. The diversity order and average error probability for this channel are calculated. Then it is assumed that there are two clusters of terminals and the...
This paper analyzes the outage probability of cooperative communications over asymmetric fading environments. This work investigates the scenario where cooperative nodes are located at different geographical locations. Some cooperative nodes experience line of sight (LOS) signals and some nodes may experience non-LOS (NLOS) signals. As a result, signals in different links are affected by different...
In downlink relay systems, the conventional straightforward relaying scheme named decode-and-forward (DF) protocol is used at relay station (RS) to decode the data received from base station (BS) and forward the decoded data to the mobile station (MS) to improve the spatial diversity gain. However, conventional DF mode is spectral inefficient and not capacity optimal since the wireless channels in...
