In this paper we evaluated the performance of orthogonal space-time block codes with transmit antenna selection (TAS/OSTBCs) for frequency-flat correlated Rayleigh fading channels. By effective use of the probability density function (pdf), the bit error probability (BEP) for binary phase shift keying (BPSK) and M-ary Quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) is derived first. Further we evaluate...

We examine the outage probability of a multi-code DSCDMA system with Minimum Mean Squared Error (MMSE) linear interfenxce suppression. Multi-code DS-CDMA allows different information mtes by varying the number of spreading codes assigned to each user. Power control is used to achieve a set of taryet Signal-to-Inter ference-plus-Noise Ratios (SINRS), and an outage occurs if a user must incnmse t...

In this paper, the outage performance of automatic repeat request (ARQ) based opportunistic relaying is analyzed when the channel state information (CSI) for relay selection is outdated. The outage probability is derived in terms of correlation between SNR and outdated SNR of the channel from the selected relay to destination. It is shown that simulation results of the outage probability match ...

An effort has been made to illustrate the performance comparison of the Rayleigh and Rician fading channel models by using MATLAB simulation in terms of source velocity and outage probability. We have developed algorithms for the Rayleigh and Rician fading channels, which computes the envelop and outage probability. The parameters such as source velocity and outage probability play very importa...

Rate outage probability is an important performance metric to measure the level of quality of service (QoS) in the Generation (4G) broadband access networks. Thus, in this paper, we calculate a closed form expression of the rate outage probability for a given user in a down-link multi-hop OFDMAbased system encountered as a result of links’ channel variations. The channel random behavior on diff...

In this thesis, the outage probabilities of correlated sources transmission systems are analyzed. The primary goal of this work is to derive theoretical limit for correlated sources transmission which utilize the source correlation, and to establish theoretical bases for wireless cooperative communications system design utilizing the correlated sources transmission concept. We focus on the prob...

This paper analyzes the performance of a two-way relay network experiencing co-channel interference from multiple interferers due to aggressive frequency reuse in cellular networks. We discuss two different scenarios: Outages are declared individually for each user (individual outage) and an outage is declared simultaneously for all users (common outage). We derive the closed-form expressions f...

Owing to its superior performances, the multi-hop cellular system has drawn much attention in recent years. This paper aims to study the uplink system outage probability of the multi-hop cellular system over composite channels. Initially, we consider a composite channel model, which takes path loss, lognormal shadowing and Nakagami-m fading into account. Then, based on the amplify-and-forward r...

Multi-connectivity is considered to be key for enabling reliable transmissions and enhancing data rates in future wireless networks. In this work, we quantify the communication performance by the outage probability and the system throughput. We establish a remarkably simple, yet accurate analytical framework based on distributed source coding to describe the outage probability and the system th...

This paper studies the outage probability and the throughput of amplify-and-forward relay networks with wireless information and energy transfer. We use some recent results on finite block-length codes to analyze the system performance in the cases with short codewords. Specifically, the time switching relaying and the power splitting relaying protocols are considered for energy and information...
