Exact Closed-Form Expressions for the Outage Probability and Ergodic Capacity of Decode-and-Forward Opportunistic Relaying
Exact statistics of the local signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of the best relay in decode-and-forward (DF) opportunistic relaying (ORe) are derived. It is observed that although the ...
