Outage Probability of Dual-Hop Multiple Antenna Relay Systems with Interference at the Relay and Destination
This paper analyzes the outage performance of a dual-hop relaying system in which the relay is equipped with multiple antennas, while the source and destination have a single antenna. New exact
closed-form expressions for the outage probability of both the amplify-and-forward (AF) and the decode-and-forward (DF) relaying systems are derived, assuming that the relay and destination are impaired by cochannel interferers and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). Numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis
Outage Probability of Dual-Hop Selective AF With Randomly Distributed and Fixed Interferers
The outage probability performance of a dual-hop amplify-and-forward
selective relaying system with global relay selection is analyzed for
Nakagami- fading channels in the presence of multiple interferers at both
the relays and the destination. Two different cases are considered. In the
first case, the interferers are assumed to have random number and locations.
Outage probability using the generalized Gamma approximation (GGA) in the form
of one-dimensional integral is derived. In the second case, the interferers are
assumed to have fixed number and locations. Exact outage probability in the
form of one-dimensional integral is derived. For both cases, closed-form
expressions of lower bounds and asymptotic expressions for high
signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio are also provided. Simplified
closed-form expressions of outage probability for special cases (e.g., dominant
interferences, i.i.d. interferers, Rayleigh distributed signals) are studied.
Numerical results are presented to show the accuracy of our analysis by
examining the effects of the number and locations of interferers on the outage
performances of both AF systems with random and fixed interferers.Comment: 35 pages, 11 figures, accepted with minor revisions for publication
