Abstract
The outage probability of orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) in amplify and forward (AF) and decode and forward (DF) cooperative communication is investigated in this paper. The system setup involves a source node (S), an intermediate node (I), and a destination node (D). A half-duplex forwarding protocol is utilized, featuring two communication links: one direct link between the source and the destination, and one indirect link through the intermediate node. Closed-form expressions for the outage probability are derived for both AF and DF schemes. Additionally, an analysis of their diversity order is also conducted. The diversity order for both AF and DF schemes is found to be , where represents the number of multipaths. Thus, OTFS-based cooperative transmissions are capable of achieving complete channel diversity. Furthermore, the performance of OTFS AF and DF is compared with that of OFDM, GFDM and AFDM for AF and DF, demonstrating that OTFS outperforms OFDM and GFDM in terms of outage probability. The theoretical results are validated through Monte Carlo simulations.
