Performance of Two-Hop Multi-point Cooperative Relay Communication Systems

The paper studies performance of multi-point relaying cooperative communication system using selection decode-and-forward relays over an independent and identically distributed Rayleigh fading channel. Closed-form expressions of average symbol error rate(SER)and outage probability(OP)in Rayleigh fading channels are derived using moment generating function(MGF)and hyper-geometric function.Compared with the traditional cooperative communication system,performance of two-hop multi-point cooperative relaying communication systems is better.
