On the performance of wireless energy harvesting TAS/MRC relaying networks over Nakagami-m fading channels

Abstract

Performance of dual-hop decode-and-forward (DF) relaying networks employing a limited-energy relay antenna with transmit antenna selection (TAS) for the first hop and maximal ratio combining (MRC) for the second hop is studied. Specifically, a closed-form expression for the system outage probability over uncorrelated Nakagami-m fading channels is derived. Detailed simulation results are given.
