Exact and Approximated Outage Probability Analyses for Decode-and-Forward Relaying System Allowing Intra-Link Errors

IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 2014

In this paper, we theoretically analyze the outage probability of decode-and-forward (DF) relaying system allowing intra-link errors (DF-IE), where the relay always forwards the decoder output to the destination regardless of whether errors are detected after decoding in the information part or not. The results apply to practical fading scenarios where all the links between the nodes suffer from independent block Rayleigh fading. The key idea of DF-IE system is that the data sequence forwarded by the relay is highly correlated with the original information sequence sent from the source, and hence with a proper joint decoding technique at the destination, the correlation knowledge can well be exploited to improve the system performance. We analyze this problem in the information theoretical framework of correlated source coding. Using the theorems for lossy sourcechannel separation and for source coding with side information, the exact outage probability is derived. It is then shown that the exact expression can be reduced to a simple, yet accurate approximation by replacing the theorem for source coding with side information by the Slepian-Wolf theorem. Compared with conventional DF relaying where relay keeps silent if errors are detected after decoding, DF-IE can achieve even lower outage probability. Moreover, by allowing intra-link errors, the optimal position of the relay is found to be exactly the midpoint between the source and destination. Results of the simulations are provided to verify the accuracy of the analytical results.

Transmission Systems Outage probability of dual-hop decode-and-forward relaying systems over generalized fading channels

European Transactions on Telecommunications, 2010

This paper studies a dual-hop decode-and-forward (DF) relaying system over generalized fading channels which can be modeled by the η-µ distribution and κ-µ distribution. Analytical expressions of the outage probability are derived under such two distributions, respectively. Some numerical results are presented and prove that the obtained analytical expressions can be used for evaluating the outage performance of the dual-hop DF relaying systems.

New Results on the Performance Evaluation of the Relay Fading Channel

… , 2006. VTC 2006- …, 2006

The end-to-end performance of a dual-hop relaying system operating over independent, non-identical Nakagamim fading channels, is analyzed and evaluated. Closed-form expressions for the cumulative distribution function, the probability density function, the moments and the moment generating function of the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), are derived. Using these results, closed-form expressions for the outage probability are presented for both channel state information and fixed-gain relays. Furthermore, for the case of fixed-gain relay, the average end-to-end SNR, the amount of fading and the average bit-error rate are also expressed in closed-form. The proposed mathematical analysis is complemented by numerical examples, including the effects on the overall performance of the SNRs unbalancing as well as the fading severity.

Outage Analysis of Decode-and-Forward Relaying Over Nakagami- m Fading Channels

IEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2008

In this letter, closed-form outage probability expressions are presented for an -relays dual-hop plus a direct link network, in which the decode-and-forward relaying protocol is employed. Our analysis significantly extends previous results on Rayleigh fading, considering a Nakagami-fading environment with either equal or distinct second hops fading parameters to average power ratios. Various numerical examples illustrate the proposed analysis.

A closed-form expression for the outage probability of decode-and-forward relaying in dissimilar Rayleigh fading channels

IEEE Communications Letters, 2000

Decode-and-forward relaying has been shown to be a viable transmission protocol for wireless networks incorporating distributed spatial diversity. Practical systems may employ relay channels that experience statistically different signal fadings. The performance of decode-and-forward relaying in channels with dissimilar fading parameters is investigated. In particular, a closed-form expression for the outage probability of a system with an arbitrary number of relays is derived.

Exact Outage Probability of Opportunistic DF Relay Systems With Interference at Both the Relay and the Destination Over Nakagami-$m$ Fading Channels

IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, 2000

In this paper, we investigate the outage behavior of a dual-hop opportunistic decode-and-forward (DF) relay system with co-channel interference (CCI) at both the relay and the destination. The source-relay and relay-destination channels as well as the interferers' channels at both the relay and the destination nodes are assumed to follow Nakagami-m distribution. Exact closed-form expressions for the outage probability for both independent non-identically distributed (i.n.d.) and independent identically distributed (i.i.d.) cases of interferers' channels are derived in this paper. Furthermore, the system behavior at high SNR values is studied via deriving the asymptotic outage probability. Our finding suggest that the co-channel interferers do not reduce the diversity order of the system, instead, they degrade the outage performance by affecting the coding gain of the system. The accuracy of the analytical results are supported by Monte-Carlo simulations.

Error probability performance for multi-hop decode-and-forward relaying over Rayleigh fading channels

Advanced Communication Technology, …, 2009

This paper provides a complete study on the end-to-end performance of multi-hop wireless communication systems equipped with re-generative (decode-and-forward) relays over Rayleigh fading channels assuming single-antenna terminals. More specifically, the probability density function (pdf) of the tightly approximated end-to-end SNR of the systems is derived. Using this approximation allows us to avoid considering all possible combinations of correct and erroneous decisions at the relays and the destination for which the end-to-end transmission is error-free, thus reducing computation burden in evaluating important multi-hop system's performance metrics. Simulations are performed to verify the accuracy and to show the tightness of the theoretical analysis.

Performance Analysis of Multi-Antenna DF Relay Networks over Nakagami-m Fading Channels

IEEE Communications Letters, 2000

In this letter, we present the performance of multiantenna selective combining decode-and-forward (SC-DF) relay networks over independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) Nakagami-m fading channels with integer value of the fading severity parameter. The outage probability, moment generation function (MGF) and symbol error probability are derived in closed-form using the SNR statistical characteristics. To simplify our analysis, we derive outage and symbol error probabilities at high SNRs over independent and non-identically distributed (i.n.i.d) Nakagami-m fading channels with no assumption on the fading severity parameter .After that, we formulate the outage probability problem and optimize it with an approximated problem and then solve it analytically. Finally, for comparison with analytical results, we perform some Monte-Carlo simulations.

Outage analysis of Nth-best DF relay networks in the presence of CCI over Rayleigh fading channels

2013 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC), 2013

In this paper, we investigate the outage behavior of a dual-hop N th -best decode-and-forward (DF) relay system with co-channel interference (CCI) at both the relays and the destination. The source-relay and relay-destination channels as well as the interferers' channels at both the relay and the destination nodes are assumed to follow Rayleigh distribution. Exact closed-form expressions for the outage probability for both independent non-identically distributed (i.n.d.) and independent identically distributed (i.i.d.) cases of interferers' channels are derived in this paper. Furthermore, the system behavior at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values is studied via deriving an approximate expression for the asymptotic outage probability as well as the diversity order and the coding gain. The analytical results are supported and validated by Monte-Carlo simulations. Our findings suggest that the diversity order linearly increases with the number of relays and linearly decreases with the order of the relay. Also, the results show that the system is still able to achieve full diversity gain in the presence of finite number of interferers with finite powers.
