Relay-Assisted D2D Communication over Extended η-μ Fading Channels

Approximate SER of Cooperative Communication Over Generalized k−μ and η−μ Fading Channels

In this paper, closed form expressions for approximate symbol error rate (SER) are obtained using moment generating function (MGF) for a two branch cooperative communication system over generalized κ−μ and η−μ i.i.d. fading channels for BPSK and QAM modulation schemes. Selective Decode and Forward protocol is used at the relay transmitter. At the destination Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) is use...

Relay-Assisted Mixed FSO/RF Systems over Málaga-M and κ-μ Shadowed Fading Channels

This letter presents a unified analytical framework for the computation of the ergodic capacity and the outage probability of relay-assisted mixed FSO/RF transmission. In addition to accounting for different FSO detection techniques, the mathematical model offers a twofold unification of mixed FSO/RF systems by considering mixed Málaga-M/κ-μ shadowed fading, which includes as special cases near...

Gallager's Exponent Analysis of STBC MIMO Systems over η-μ and κ-μ Fading Channels

In this paper, we analytically investigate Gallager’s exponent for space-time block codes over multiple-input multipleoutput block-fading channels with Gaussian input distribution. As a suitable metric of the fundamental tradeoff between communication reliability and information rate, Gallager’s exponent can be used to determine the required codeword length to achieve a prescribed error probabi...

Outage probability analysis for η-μ fading channels

In this Letter we derive exact closed-form expressions for the outage probability (OP) in η-μ fading channels. First, a general expression in terms of the confluent Lauricella function is derived for arbitrary values of μ. Next, we restrict the analysis to physical η-μ channel models, i.e. to integer values of 2μ, and obtain exact closed-form expressions for the OP in terms of Marcum Q, Bessel ...
